Although people describe me as "jolly" or "loud", I would like to once and for all put those descriptions to rest. For, even though I am both jolly & loud, I am much, much more. I love to laugh, pulling a good joke, and I truly love people. Down to the bottom of my heart. I am creative and a quick wit, and I generally don't judge people.
I love music ( so much so, that a wrong note can sometimes hurt me)
And I sketch as much as I can.
I would say that as long as I am moving from place to place, learning and writing new things, and making new friends, I will always be ok. That's the way to live.
