just a girl

About Me

i'm not all that complicated. i have the sense of humour of a 13 year old boy-fart and poo jokes make me laugh. sometimes i think like i have a penis. i am in denial about how much of a girl i am. i love to take long walks with betsy, my ipod. i am honest almost to a fault. i don't believe in absolutes-the world is an infinite spectrum of greys to me. i see beauty in simple things and i love things that please my senses-i'm a sensualist. i live for house parties. i care about people far more than i should but i'm a misanthropist. i see a lot more beauty and potential in people than they see in themselves. i live for simple moments..or all the random ones. the right song at the right moment makes me beam or laugh outloud. sometimes i forget that i'm not alone and sing. when i give my heart, i give it all. if you are my friend, you will know that i will do anything for you. i have been described as "deliciously weird". apathy makes me sick and i am affected by pain and hurt affecting other people, so sometimes i run away from it. did i mention i am a hypocrite? i hate sports, but secretly i could school you with my hockey knowledge. i am a total geek. i work hard and play even harder. i am in love with emoting, female vocalists. i am a beats whore, dj and producer groupie. i'm a lot smarter than people think i am too, as a result, i have a dumb complex. most girls don't like me when they meet me, but i'm a nice. i am a collector-i love stuff. i alphabetize and catalogue my cds and dvds. sometimes i write poetry and i love to write letters. i romantisize my life through music, movies, tv and books. i am a bit OCD. i have an irrational fear of stickers on fruit and vegetables...and non-fresh stickers in general. i don't like it when my foods touch. i hate it when rice sticks to your socks and then things stick to that. i am often messy but demand order in most parts of my life. i love ideas. i snore. i love to laugh and i smile a lot. sunday brunch is my favourite meal of the week. if i could wear tank tops, jeans and fluffy slippers everyday, i would. all our truths are different
