My Interests

taking pictures of myself and friends then painting them, laughing so hard I cry, fortune cookies, singing to myself, FIREFLIES, looking very pensive, eating out by myself-drinking by myself, drinking hot tea, sitting for hours in coffee shops, the virgin mary, not answering my phone when it rings, the color red, consuming strawberries-because they are red, looking up new words in the dictionary, learning how to spell, finishing other people's sentences, being a wino, gallery hopping in Chelsea, suddenly touching people with my cold hands, inhaling toxic paint fumes-it makes me a stronger person and oh yeah, walking through the streets of new york city and actually smiling at people...
