Sarah &lt;wishes she was witty, too&gt;

It's been a while since someone's been horribly killed, and it seems like an opportune time for some

About Me

I’m pretty normal, I think. I’ve been told I’m wrong. I was raised as an only child but I have 5 older siblings (I’m thinking about going on Oprah). I’m an optimist and a nerd. I love reading, learning, and exploring. I’m always up for trying new things and going places I’ve never been before. I love road trips! Museums and art galleries make me happy. I hate watching television for the most part, but I love movies (especially horror). I love board games, video games, and live sporting events (ESPECIALLY hockey). Not that I ever know what’s going on in the games. I also love outdoor festivals and concerts. I love quoting ridiculous movies and playing the same CD over and over again for a week. I like pina coladas and dancing in the rain. I volunteer with Big Brothers/Big Sisters and it’s one of the greatest things I’ve ever done in my life.I’m always late everywhere I go (usually because I have an innate ability to get lost). I HATE talking on the phone but I LOVE texting. I hate shopping and going to the mall, but I love shoes. I've never done a drug in my life. I don't care what you do – as long as you can function intelligently. I love going out. I love staying in. I can make any situation fun. There's no point on dwelling on the negative. Unless you can change it.

My Interests

Video games, Horror movies, Outdoorsy stuff, Traveling, Road trips, Music, the 70s and anything retro, Thrift stores, Comic Books (Yes, I'm serious..damnit), Happy Bunny, Amy Lee, Wondering if anyone reads this stuff, Jelly Belly Jelly Beans, Fuzzy pens that light up, Your Mom, Rice cakes, Sarcasm, Forensic Science, Chemistry experiments, volunteering
