About Me

ModMySpace Profile Customizer
I enjoy:
Ravenswood wine.
The muppets.
Live music.
Coffee. Which also means anything else related to coffee: coffee flavoured food, coffee mugs, and coffee dates.
Crafting. It's amazing what you can do with pipe-cleaners, pom-poms, and googly eyes.
The piano.
Art museums. The warhol in Pittsburgh altered my life.
Forest trails.
Long drives. Accompanied with a coffee in hand, good company, and stimulating conversation.
Jeans.
Recently:
My studies have come to a close. I am now free to use my mind towards things that will build up my real experiences. Enjoying my venture of designing ads and coasters in the lovely Dundas, Ontario.
Loving my love, furry friend, less furry friends, and family. Shedding any sort of colours and showing new shades. Looking forward while enjoying the present.
Great childhood memories:
