I am a clown at heart.The “Happy-Go-Lucky Type that looks to have the best time in ANY situation and take my friends along with me for the ride. I am very adventurous and hardly ever look back or have regrets. I find myself always thinking about something, chewing it over, learning it, reading about it, discussing it with some random person. Having a conviction about something is extremely important to me, so I’m always asking my friends “What do you think about this or that†although my convictions are likely to change regularly. I look to accrue all the wisdom and knowledge of the ages, and yet still constantly search for more. I have a love of the unknown and the challenging, the magical and the unexplained.I Describe Me:I am ever constantly searching for the goodness in the hearts of everyone. I believe I have a sharp intuition. I love to be around interesting and exciting people, no matter their craft. I get bored easily. I Love Hard. I crave communication & hate silence. (I Only tolerate silence when I’m writing) I will talk about anything I find exciting and interesting, from the new bug I “discovered†in Prospect Park, to what the pompous a-hole who cut me off while I was driving was wearing…and I will make you listen! I Love learning and then further expanding on what I just learned. I love bringing people together, inspiring them, delighting them, teaching them, and opening up a new world for them. Just not cleaning up after them. I do not like being a possession. I love being In Love with all things living. I concentrate on the journey itself, not the arrival. Something about the exhilaration of the process that’s the kind of reward you can’t hold in your hands. I treasure my friends because loyalty & trustworthiness is a rarity found in few. I used to be a “church girl†I spend a lot. I work harder than I need to. I hate working harder than I need to. I love documentaries. I’m a sucker for nerds with cute smiles. Fences drive me crazy. I despise ultimatums. I like the element of danger & rebellion. I have a restless mind. I hate monotony. I’d rather have a friend than a lover. I am the most non-judgmental person alive. I have a heart of steel, that bruises easily. I build walls just to see who cares enough to bring them down. I believe EVRYTHING has a deeper meaning but sometimes I’m just too lazy to analyze it. I will let you think you don’t hurt me. I have more flaws than I do achievements. I’m working on it. I do not have a bachelor’s degree. I’m working on that too. I have a whacked sense of humor. My basic approach to life is to laugh at it; after all, what's so serious when you really think about it? I write because I’m good at it. I take taxis often. I hardly pick up my phone. If you email me you’d have a better chance of getting me. I roam through life leaving behind a trail of broken affairs, unfinished business, and unpaid debts, but I don’t look back. I come from a dysfunctional family and I’ve learned to embrace that. I hate math. I am only as social as you allow me to be. I’m addicted to orange juice. I don’t listen to my voicemail. I love growing with my daughter. I’m skeptical of marriage. I still believe in fairy tales. I never get tired of hearing a compliment. I believe people are genuine for the most part. I believe the truth is said in jest. I believe if I squint my eyes enough I could see through most people’s bullshit. I was pregnant at 16. I think most things in life are metaphorical. I’m still searching for my purpose.People Describe Me:I have a tendency to speak before I think. I am overly independent. I am too much of an optimist. I have ADD. I’m impulsive and irrational. I love Hard. I’m an awesome listener. I’m irresponsible. I look more conventional that I really am. I often have my foot in my mouth. I love to push my luck. I hold grudges. I’m unpredictable. I’m the coolest drunk, one time I convinced my friends to get tattoos and piercings and I got none…remember Joel& Zarah? =x I’m gullible, you could sell me sunglasses on a rainy day if I believed it would help me be 2% dryer. I’m seriously into my writes. I flirt a lot even when I don’t notice. I “Social Work†conversations with them. I Have NO sense of direction.Ultimately Poetry is my religion, and the word “religious†here is used in its original sense: to reconnect. I want to reconnect with the source, with the roots of life, with some sense of meaning. I’m just a girl trying to broaden my scope, and enlarge my consciousness. Life is a curious and interesting thing me. It is something to be played with, explored, enjoyed, peered into. And ultimately, understood.
