About Me

On being an Activist:

"You will know that you have not lived and died for nothing, because you will have become part of the great tradition of those who have responded to the amount of pain and suffering in the universe by trying to make the world a better place."
--Peter Singer

I'm basically just a short, nice girl who is into revolution, the arts, sober fun, and following a ten-step program to resist my hair-dye addiction. I love activists and/or artists.
