About Me

people are so complex and yet so simple... there is so much to me and if you hang out with me 3 times you will probably be able to read most of it. i'm totally straightforward but i have a nasty habit of giving off a bad first impression. i don't mean to do it, and when people tell me about it later on, i can hardly belive how i come off to people who don't know me. but i'm really just a loving person and i want to give people the world. i am never satisfied with anything and i want the world in my palms... i often feel that it is right there and i think that confidence gets me through the rough spots. i have a ton of incredible experiences in life but i feel like i am only just beginning!!! and i think that writing "about me" sections is really unnecessary! what's done is done though. talk to me.. be my friend... i have lots to offer and i am totally sure that you do too.Link: The Quick & Painless ENNEAGRAM Test (
