About Me


I am not graceful. I trip over my feet about ten times a day if nothing else. My hand-eye coordination is off but I can catch something if you throw it at me... most of the time.
I stutter because my mind works faster than my mouth and half the time I'm thinking of at least three things to say at once. If I'm making stuff up, I'm fluent, only because I'm thinking slower.
I am not confident though I tend to come off that way (people tell me I seem so all the time). I have no idea what I want to be, what I want to do or how I want to do it.
I go from day to day without thinking long term. If I do think long term it's only making plans like going out (clubbing, concerts, or something fun), traveling or family/friend get togethers. If it is career/school related, I tend to put it off.
I am an impulse buyer. I waste my money on things people think I shouldn't use my money on. I can't help it, it makes me feel better.
My addiction is books. Close second is music, third movies.
I am not here to meet anyone. If I meet you online, more than likely you'll stay an online friend. Don't ask to meet me. If I want to meet you, I'll ask. If we happen to meet on the street, at a concert, club, mall... whatever, then we meet in person. I will not set it up.
I believe in love but not relationships. I don't want to get married or have children. People say I'll change my mind but I haven't yet.
I am shy. I'm aware I keep a wall up. It helps me filter out the people who are worth it and the people who are not. Just because I seem like an open person doesn't mean I am.
Yes, I'm selfish. Yes, I come off on the conceited side (though it's to hide my insecurities). No, I don't really care what you think.
I am either the nicest person you will ever meet or someone you wish you never have met.
My friends and family know me inside and out. I can't keep anything from them nor do I try. They are what make my world turn.
I am a changeling. I am opinionated, shallow and sarcastic. I am bitter and quite possibly broken and I'm okay with that.

The TV and I do not get along. We clash. Although I am very fond of Pushing Daisies and How I Met Your Mother. I really need to get season two on DVD because I nearly have the entire first season of HIMYM memorized.

Books:



Stone Garden by Molly Moynahan is my favorite by far--and it helped me get through one of the hardest parts of my life. I think you should check it out .

Heroes:

God. My Grandfather.
