About Me

I'm way terrible.

I'm also way sarcastic. I'm usually negative. I really like mayonaise. And cake, even if it does make my stomach bleed. Nastya says I'm a legend. I think I am ridiculous. Whatever I am presently I hope to become what I should be before the end lest the doors of the kingdom be closed against me.

My Interests

The Truth.
Orthodoxy or Death.
Orthodox Christianity. Repentance.Salvation. Death.Life.Truth. Iconography.Photography. Music.Art.Mystery.
Lurking.Tea.Cheesy-potatoes.Gluten-Free Cake.
I'm also quite interested in battle-axes.

Music:

ROCK IN ROLL BABY! FREEDOM OF SPEECH!
