About me.

My name is Ashley Cowan.  At the time of this posting, I am 24 years old.  I live in Tulsa, OK.  I have been together with my husband for almost 6 years, and married almost 4.  We have two children, ages five and two.  Currently, my favorite colors are red, purple, and pink.  My favorite movie is The Avengers.  My favorite show is Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.  My favorite actor is Tom Hiddleston.  My favorite actress is Jennifer Lawrence.  Favorite movie genre is action, and favorite television genre is Korean Drama.  My favorite animal is a horse.  My favorite book is the House of Night series (the author of the series is a teacher and her daughter, from Broken Arrow.)  My dream is to host my own talk show, and write a book about my life.  I currently attend school for radio broadcasting.  I have one living parent, my mother died when I was 19.  I have four sisters, a brother, and two people I consider a brother and sister.  I have a grandmother and grandfather, whom I do not speak to, for personal reasons.  I have one aunt, one uncle who was sent to prison.  I have numerous cousins, only two I care to count.  I have six nieces and two or three nephews, two of the nieces I haven't seen in almost 8 years, because of their mother.  I have a great aunt that I speak to.  I have an enormous church family, all of whom bring the true meaning to Chrisianity.  I was a single mother, had my child out of wedlock, thought I was together with him (the man who is now my husband and father to both of our children.)  and they took me in and welcomed me with open arms.  My husband and I have known each other since 1998, and have loved each other since.



I am a loving person.  I have a big heart, offering help when I can and however I can.  I love to make other people smile and laugh, and would do almost anything to turn their day around.  I am a wonderful listener, I've had friends call me at all hours of the day and night when they needed someone.  I'm easy to get along with, I'm a fast learner.  I don't really consider myself selfish, but every now and then, I'll buy something pretty inexpensive because I feel like I deserved it.  I was raised with manners, to be honest and loyal, and earn the things I have, and give love and compassion to those who need and deserve it.  If someone drops money on the ground, I will pick it up, and hand it back to them.  If someone needs help, or looks like they need help with groceries or getting things into their car, I won't care if it's rain or hailing, or sunshine, I'll help.



When a good friend of mine passed away, she had many things on her bucket list unfulfilled, and it made me think about the things I want to do in my life.  So here it is, my bucketlist.  This will be my only posting, the next ones will be to document when I have completed a bucket time, followed by pictures, videos, or news articles if any.  Since I am 24 at this moment, I will write down 24 things I want to do:

1. Learn a new language every year, for 5 years.
