I am here for Dating and Friends

About Me

An eclectic, fashionable gizzirl from H Tizzy who is looking to live a life full of love and high energy thru postive life experiences and trustworthy friendships. Seeking natural highs like yoga and moving towards a more minimalist lifestyle (less material & gas use thru self awareness of the environment-taking public transportion, biking & walking). I am a beginner knitter who enjoys conversing over needles and yarn with the Central Houston Traveling Knitting Circle. I have a Pipe Dream to become a pianist so I can work towards being a bad @ss keyboardist and start an all girls punk/new wave band. I hold interests in the philosophy of various worldly religions such as Buddhism."Conquer the angry man by love. Conquer the ill-natured man by goodness. Conquer the miser with generosity. Conquer the liar with truth." The Dhammapada

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

I'd like to reconnect with old pals and keep up with new friends!If I do not know you, I would prefer a short message before you send a friend's request.

Relationships with friends and family are the most important relationships to maintain in my life at the moment. Layout made by JadedPrimaDonna
