It's hard to remember that our lives are such a short time...

About Me


"Sincerity: Use no hurtful deceit; think innocently and justly, and, if you speak, speak accordingly." --Unknown
I do what I can to keep in touch with people, but you can help by contacting me too.
My e-mail address is: [email protected] (the O is a zero)or [email protected]
Instant messenger: ingenue256
I'm 19 as of January 29th.
Life has been changing and evolving and new things keep happening ever week. Life is getting a bit more intriguing, staying just as confusing, and keeps on flowing. Procrastinating (I'll eventually get to everything). Not looking for work. (Who wouldn't take a 4 year break from working if they could?). In an in-between stage in life (does it ever end?). So, pretty much the norm. I'm doing 'okay'.
"Age is an issue of mind over matter. If you don't mind, it doesn't matter." - Mark Twain
I'm still trying to kick my damn addiction to cigarettes. It seems like that day is nearing. The last 10 packs I bought were all titled "my last pack." It's so hard and they taste soooooooo friggin' good. I only drink occasionally. I refuse to drink and drive. New Favorite drink: Bacardi Rum
This page is in constant repair/update.
More to come!
I'm glad to be alive, no matter how fucking hard it can be sometimes.
