About Me

Baby, you don't know where my mind has been....
My mission in life is to inflict as little damage to the world as I can. My interests can be summed up as anything relating to life. At the mom.ent been keepin' my head in the books. I'm young, hopeful, and wiling to learn about everything and anything. I'm not good at judging things for what they are or always making the best decisions, but I always have my heart in the right place. I love good people, good times, and just living- as difficult as that can be sometimes. Anything else, just ask.
"Not all who wander are lost."
"Each of us is left to choose our own quality of life and take pleasure where we find it, with the understanding that, like Mom used to say, 'Sooner or later, something's going to get you."
