About Me

If I list these random things, these very random things, will you know me better?I like parks - I love to climb trees or jungle gyms - I was born to help and write so I try to do both often - I believe we're all family - I will always work for the common good - Every summer I attempt to learn a language (two this summer)- I love meeting people - I'll talk to anyone and listen - I love stories, the more outlandish the better - I'm horrible with names but I rarely forget faces - I've moved around a lot - I was born and raised Buddhist - Action/adventure movies turn me into a really excited little kid - I have a perfectly healthy fascination with men in skirts - I have an old soul - I play around a lot - I'd rather be barefoot - music/art/literature/dance/film, Yes please! - I have had conversations about loving NY - I'm silly and sarcastic, don't be alarmed - and a gajillion other statements...So who wants to play?
