About Me

i'm an intricate creature and convoluted at that. it takes patience plus continued existence to draw me out and be unperturbed. thus, you end up with a formulated fabrication of yours truly as aloof and severe. as oppose to that, i aggregate the fact that i am: 1. a lover of laughing, 2. always laughing, 3. forever in want of being in tears (not a result of any accompanied heart ache, au contraire, i meant movie-crying), 4. constantly never running out of daydreams, 5. continually daydreaming, 6. in love with books (naturally, reading too),7. musically inclined. seriously, i could be mentally challenged. so forget your prior makings of me as aloof and severe, believe me, i am far from that. although, it's been said that my being a perfectionist would drive you, just slightly, mad. i shouldn't forget to warn you about my being a narcissist, which would certainly have you riled, just slightly also. oh! i have this perpetual tendency to be an egoist. i am an egoist. and yes, i am complex.

i would not like to congregate on physical matters. beauty goes farther beyond skin deep. have you heard of the saying, "tell me your hobbies & i'll tell you who you are?" now you have. i love reading. a lot. i get a natural high when i enter a bookstore. even more so when i get to buy books & anticipate the pages i have to lay eyes on. ahh,bliss. i love star&moon gazing. i love the beach &f rolicking in its sands in a secluded island. i love writing. au contraire, i have no illusion of writing a book/novel someday. i love photography. i would also love it if i learned to fly. as in fly a plane.i have this fixation on wanting to become a fighter pilot. i love running. i would love to get a tattoo someday when the time comes that readiness hits me right smack in my being. i love spending time with my family. they're the best,we always, always have fun. i should end this now.~::~kEtChUp LoVeR, mOnStEr AcTUaLLy~::~~::~a sUcKeR fOr 'nYtHiNg PuRpLe~::~~::~fReNcH eNtHuSiAsT~::~~::~tRaDiTiOnAL bOoKwOrM~::~~::~bUcKeT-FiLLiNg TeArJeRkEr~::~~::~MeDiEvAL pRiNcEsS wAnNaBe~::~~::~ReNaiSsAnCe ReMiNiScEr~::~~::~cOmPoSeR oF "sTUpiD-bUt-TrUe ThEoRiEs (or so i'd like to think)~::~~::~nArScIsSiStIc~::~~::~a BiTcH~::~
