Life is the art of drawing without an eraser.

About Me

I'm not what you would call extraordinary, but I'm not exactly typical either. I stay up late just to think about life. I have an excellent memory for things that don't matter. I don't like rain. I read the same books over and over just to feel the way I did the first time I read them. I like black and white better than color. I would rather live in the wilderness than in the city. If I had my way, I would never brush my hair. I can sometimes be found having conversations with myself. There is nothing I like more than a nice glass of wine. I don't step on cracks in the sidewalk. I see beauty in the simplest of things. I could spend hours just observing the world. I love sad music. I wear my heart on my sleeve. I love to play the piano, but never when anyone is listening. I have a secret love for tiny objects, like little ceramic shoes. I like learning about things that I don't understand, like why the sky really is blue. Sometimes I would rather be sad than happy, but I don't let anyone know it. I make wishes on eyelashes. I want to somehow make a difference in the world through my art. I never want to grow up, although I already have.

My Interests

Writing down my thoughts, reading, thinking, dancing when no one is watching, working out, trying new things while staying pretty routine, spending time with my family, scrapbooking, observing life, sewing, listening to music, playing WoW, painting, taking pictures, playing the piano, and finding myself.


I'd like to meet:

People who are comfortable with who they are, someone who understands me more than I understand myself, and someone who knows what they really want...because how many of us actually do?
