About Me

.. MySpace Layouts MySpace Codes MySpace Backgroundsso the disclaimer im attaching to this is that i dont really pride myself on talking about...well, myself. but ive toiled for many long minutes trying to turn the events of my life into a rather fun-to-read soliloquy. here goes.
lets start off easy k? im 23, and i live in Upland. hm. that wasnt so bad.
i really am so much more than that though.
im a writer. and a singer. in my car and in public. i used to be better but life come at u fast (or so the commercial says) and my talent kinda waned. i live for fashion. not designer denim and ur moms coach bag. real fashion. mcqueen, valentino, mccartney, jacobs, pilati, and the living legend Tom Ford. music is another passion. punk, rock, acoustic, country, pop, soul, whatever. i appreciate most. frozen lemonade from disneyland makes me happy. and i believe you havent lived until youve been covered in champagne spray. i can be mean, sweet, sarcastic, verbose, and boring. with a beautiful soul, and occasional bad hair. i stress too much about what im wearing, yet i live in my jeans and v-neck sweater. im alone, and i think ive got too many friends, im romantically uninvolved. sometimes im happy about it, sometimes bitter. i might be a bit of a couch-potato, but im always down to go party. in spite of my occasional self-doubt and shyness i tend to be pretty outgoing. and im kind of-totally a romantic.
but really, after all that, im just trying to have a good time with whats left of my "years of having fun" before i have to do that whole growing-up thing.

My Interests

music. going out. staying in. being with my friends. sitting on my couch (its comfy). being entertained by my own thought processes. meeting new people. cultures. societies. history. learning random shit. making people happy. boys. people-watching. art. gardens. romance. movies. horses. supernatural and occult-y things. shopping. designer clothes. vintage clothes. shoes. scarves. belts. hats. dogs. good restaurants. kissing in the rain. driving. hookah. starbucks. superheroes. my grandma's cooking.
