About Me

[ I'M SHARA ]
one of a kind
except no substitutions.
NOT YOUR AVERAGE CHOCOLATE MILK LOVER. ♥
"Well I looked my demons in the eyes, laid bare my chest, said do your best to destroy me.
See I've been to hell and back so many times, I must admit, You kind of bore me."
Time for a revision. Not that turning 24 was some huge revelation but I'm quickly realizing I'd rather my life be built on a foundation of quality than volume.
... let the calibration process begin ...
..Tocsin: I'm fucking nuts. Spiders scare me. I sneeze a lot. I'm hilarious. I am getting a bunny and naming him Killer. If you have a pocket poodle or a token Chihuahua, I'll sick him on your bitch. I love to laugh. I love to make people laugh. I'm easy to please. I love men in tight shirts. I find tranquility in chaos. I value personal space. I'm all about me right now, take it or leave. I cherish my privacy. I'm a free spirit. I expect the unexpected. I read the 'missed connections' section of craigslist regularly.. it makes my heart smile. I tend to romanticize everything. I don't really have boobs and I don't really want them. I'm always on the go. I don't need anyone else to make me happy. I'm self sufficient. I'm competitive. I talk a lot of shit. I despise authority. I'm a rebel with about 49,278 causes. I get bored easily. I am the best friend you'll never have. I love my friends unconditionally. The only secrets I have belong to other people. I have about 42 layers of complexion, none of which you will likely ever see other than my initial bemused exterior so don't get it twisted if you think you know me or anything I'm about. I am a bit reserved if I don't know you but won't shut the hell up once I do. People often misdeem my honesty for bitchiness. I am a firm believer in speaking your mind, though I often do so without much formation. Life is too short to dwell on any reservations other people may have formed about me. I have an out of site, out of mind outlook on life.. some call it resilience, doctors call it ADD. I believe that variety, spontaneity, laughter and passion are the spices of life. I'll try anything three times. I love diversity. I love the water. I love photography. I love vuphotography. I love the ocean. I love to dip french fries in my peanut butter and strawberry shakes. I love to eat. I love music. I will never wear cowboy boots. I love Seattle in the fall. I love summer in Aliso. I love hip hop shows in the Bay. I love hipster kids in LA. I love life. I love MY life. I'm in love with love. Falling in love, being in love, living for love.
Everything I've done, screwed up and accomplished in life has been a learning experience.. still in the making.
..♥ ♥ ♥
..I have an addictive personality. I'm addicted to people. I'm addicted to people with substance. I'm addicted to people who carry their own. I'm addicted to people who are addicted to people. I'm addicted to my 'surface'. I'm addicted to distance. I'm addicted to people I can't figure out. I'm addicted to the unknown. I'm addicted to reading people. I'm addicted to watching people. I'm addicted to doing things for people. I'm addicted to the gratification I get doing things for people. call it being unselfish for selfish reasons, if you will. I'm addicted to feeling special. I'm addicted to getting butterflies in my heart. I'm addicted to kisses on the neck. I'm addicted to giving my all. I'm addicted to replacing one addiction with another. I'm addicted to grocery stores and field trips. I'm addicted to Seattle. I'm addicted to the water. I'm addicted to people that make me think. I'm addicted to the unattainable. I'm addicted to music. I'm addicted to the sound of pouring rain. I'm addicted to striking a pose. I'm addicted to feeling loved. I'm addicted to this fucking website. I'm addicted to people who "say things I wish I had said." I'm addicted to the kind of comfort you find with someone who, by doing nothing at all, incarnates solace and tranquility. I'm addicted to honesty. I'm addicted to chocolate milk. I'm addicted to ink and needles. I'm addicted to my little brother. I'm addicted to being the reason someone is smiling. I'm addicted to feeling important... to people who are important to me. I'm addicted to making someones day. I'm addicted to running errands. I'm addicted to being social. I'm addicted to progress. I'm addicted to having something to be passionate about. I'm addicted to helping people. I'm addicted to feeling needed. I'm addicted to intoxication... the kind you get from jumping out of a plane, blue angels flying over your head or falling for someone. I'm addicted to being me. I'm addicted to people like me. I'm addicted to being an addict. I have an addictive personality.
.. - My trials keep me strong. My sorrows keep me human. My failures keep me humble. -
I always win.
"The first time her laughter unfurled it's wings on the wind we knew the world would never be the same"
