About Me

I just graduated from UMSL with a bachelors in Anthropology with an emphasis in Primatology (Monkeys.) Ideally, I want to be Jane Goodall when I grow up. That being said, Chimps are better than humans. I've been a vegan for eight years now and am on a quest to veganize any recipe. I love to cook. I love dancing and fire poi (they're quite beautifully combined...) I'm a bit of a pyromaniac. I work in a chocolate shop and it is the best job ever. If you add me as a friend here you might as well add me on Facebook too. I have a bunny named Button who sheds all over everything and a puppy named Daisy who gets very stinky. There's a bit more to my personality that you can't find on paper, but you'd actually have to do something other than Myspace stalk me to find out.
