About Me

I take great pride in the person I've become. In the past 20 months, I've learned a lot, matured a lot, and gained a lot. Although I am happy with where I am, my pride is not to be confused with arrogance. I still have a lot of growing to do, but I'm well on my way to doing so.

Books:

I only read classic literature and non-fiction books. They're the only things that capture my attention.

Heroes:

So I'm turning off the TV and I smashed my radio. Because I realize my heroes are the people I already know. And I'm burning up the papers and tearing up all the magazines. Because they make me feel so lonely when there's no one who represents me.
