CURRENT MISSION

to live the dream, folks. i just want to live the dream for as long as i can

ABOUT ME

i am above average height.

PHILOSOPHY

i guess i'll borrow a lyric from a song i like:

scrape your knee, it is only skin.

Interests

i am interested in meeting new people and trying new things. i enjoy travel and exploring new places, going for hikes and walks and soaking up the scenery, listening to music and reading books while sitting in a cafe and drinking tea also rank highly on my list of passions. i recently graduated from university and am desperate for a little intellectual stimulation as well, so i'm really into crosswords and sudoku these days...

polaroids, neon signs, coats & jackets, ampersands, scarves, the three r's (and how two of them aren't actually r's), orange pekoe tea, groceries, speaking french poorly.
