I am here for Friends and Networking

About Me

lyt by avlays
I'm overconfident, wildly passionate, a bit sarcastic and quite obsessive. I often find things humorous. I love: clever wit, being caught off-guard, perfect timing, repetition, and inside jokes. I laugh easily, and get a kick out of giving people shit (especially when they give it right back.)
I value intelligence and creativity. I think there are few things sexier than someone who has an imagination and loves to learn. I heart people who find joy in their individuality, instead of embracing something as a part of a carefully crafted image. I have little patience for snobby people who lack passion and carelessly crush that passion in others.
I wholeheartedly embrace change, especially as an exploration of how to make things and people more complete. Stagnation - in myself, my environment, my friends, or my loves - is my number one nemesis. I kick ASS at problem-solving and brainstorming. I'm a Mastermind (INTJ) in every way. (No seriously, read the description.)
I live design and color, it's how I think and in everything I do. I adore a good emotion-inducing atmosphere, and I will melt at the expert use of light and space.
And... that's all you get for free.
