About Me

i was told by a co-worker that im charming in a mean way. a photography teacher accused me being a phal-o-holic numerous times (how else am i supposed to take a picture of a building??? and she is the lesbian with the penis issues). ive been advised to become a geisha in order to use my art history degree. my mother thinks i like explicit music that denigrates women. my brother thinks im noble. my friends like to tell stories about me eating food out of the garbage. there is strong evidence to support that i am really good at becoming just friends with boys i have huge crushes on. i HATE scaffolding, auto foam soap, road detours, construction, people, medleys (musical, vegetable, fruit and mineral) and happy birthday messages on myspace. whatevs.
