Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
my mantra-- hesitation is loss. one of the hardest things to do in life is to simply be happy with what you have. brilliant people are my savior.
ABOUT ME
i am a restless human being who craves knowledge and experience. i am deeply in love with conversation. i believe in being honest and humble. i like biting down on jolly ranchers until it makes your jaws stuck together. i love handwriting. i am an aspiring artist. i am a writer, a daughter, a sister of three other siblings, a chronic day-dreamer, and i'm hoping to pick up the harmonica soon. the elderly and people who eat alone often saddens me to the point of tears. i hate dusk. every once in a while i will build a fort in my living room, order chinese food, and watch movies (in the fort, of course). i hate crafts, but i love kitsch. i used to have a beta fish named theodore roman doskachevsky who lived for two and a half years. i cried when he died. i think pink and brown and baby blue and brown are fantastic color combinations. my winter dreams are always of clean sheets and a down comforter. i am double-jointed but am not sure what that means. i have a cross-underbite that i'm painfully self-conscious of...among other things. i love music. my favorite words include "crush" and "perpetuate". my favorite sounds include calloused fingers sliding over acoustic guitar strings and walking on gravel. i love laughing and wit and going out and having fun. every hat i own i've found. i think the clavicle sexy. i think everyone is beautiful. i think that i will like you.
PHILOSOPHY
my philosophy of life is that there is no point. it's all what you make out of what you have been given and gaining experiences and knowledge throughout your lifetime. i never want to be fully satisfied...because that would mean that there would be nothing left for me to do in this world. everyday you should be able to look back and tell yourself there was a reason for living it.
