About Me

think outside the box- i don't respond well to limits. i'm a walking contradiction. i'm easily amused & distracted. i'll taste everything and still be hungry for more. i'd rather disappear than say goodbye but i'll stay to dance til dawn & do the dishes. i'm quirky as fuck & wierd as all hell. i swear like a sailor. i'm shy at first & too loud in the end. i wouldn't be able to communicate w/out using my hands or making faces. i'm one of the boys & i love my girls. i adore my family & consider my friends blood. i live to feel alive & stand out, but want to fit in. i'm flaky as hell, so don't take it personal. i want to do everything & be everywhere & am always changing plans. but if you got me i'm yours; i'll be hooked & addicted. i prefer crushes over comfort. i believe in butterflies & blushing, karma & fate, angels & fairies, & the good in everyone. i will never stop dreaming.

My Interests

my brain's a wreck, my mind's everywhere but here, so if someone or something can stop & intrigue me...done & done. floating passions, wading dreams, swimming thoughts. being in love. creativity in heartbreak. being inspired by strangers, constantly amazed by my friends. making music, reading new plays, dissecting movies. the little things that make a huge picture. redecorating my pad. candid photos. spending hours at a bookstore. 7-11 french vanilla/hot coco mix. multi-colored kids. cocktails & gossip. coloring books & mad libs. bonfires & beach smells. choc malted crunch, peanuts...tang. sleeping naked. cuddling. soft skin and tickle-ish spots. talking to myself. orange colored, purple-striped skies. people watching. getting my ass kicked at dance class & singing the wrong way in my car. laughing at people in traffic. smoking & rhyming. cartwheels in the streets. road trips. background music. growing older & feeling younger...
