2. i write a lot.
3. I love playing guitar.
4. i love the world!
5. awesome.
6. I have celiac disease.
7. i don't know why i just told you these things.
8. i'm going to change the world, somehow.
9. Anthony Green is love.
10. as each day passes i'm learning more and more about who i am and the woman i will become.

support independent music.

If you're feeling generous.
