Suprise yourself.

About Me

Most of my time these days goes towards my full time job and my full load of class. I take care of business because it makes the downtime that much sweeter. But, alas, there is not enough of it to pursue my many interests. I want all this world has to offer but I will settle with taking whatever I can get. I believe in the general good that I have seemed to find in everyone I've ever met, no matter how misguided. I am young at heart. I joke around a lot. I space out sometimes. I'd like to get to know you more, possibly...
