About Me

Here as some very interesting (or at least slightly entertaining) facts that I would like to share with those of you who happen to be reading this. I try to be open minded with every situation, I'm a free spirit - uninhibited and true. My life is comparable to that of a spiderweb, complex and beautiful. I believe everything happens for a reason. If something doesn't go the way I would like, then it just wasn't meant to be and I move on with my life. I enjoy the little things in life like finding money in jean pockets after they go through the wash, the way the sun shines through trees early in the morning, and how I feel when I listen to a song for the first time and I get that feeling in my stomach - like the music just gets me or completely fits my life, if only for a moment. I tend to take things as they come and go with the flow. Bill Murray, Steve Buscemi, and Christopher Walken are three of my favorite actors... ever. I like movies and music that expand the mind. I collect vinyls. I appreciate art in various forms. I enjoy challenging everything. I've taken up sketching in my free time and I'm going to try to pick up the guitar sometime in the very near future. One time when I was really little I was excavating in our yard (because I wanted to be an archaeologist - it was just after Jurassic Park came out) and I thought I found dinosaur skin, but it turns out that it was only bark from a tree root.Myspace Layouts
