About Me

I'm sarcastic, blunt, and prone to random adventures. I major in English at Drexel, but I commute from South Jersey, because (let's face it) the shore is much better than the city. I intend to be a writer of some sort, and I love to spend my days reading on the beach. I also find great pleasure in people's idiosyncracies and clever remarks...
You Belong in 1961
If you scored...
1950 - 1959: You're fun loving, romantic, and more than a little innocent. See you at the drive in!
1960 - 1969: You are a free spirit with a huge heart. Love, peace, and happiness rule - oh, and drugs too.
1970 - 1979: Bold and brash, you take life by the horns. Whether you're partying or protesting, you give it your all!
1980 - 1989: Wild, over the top, and just a little bit cheesy. You're colorful at night - and successful during the day.
1990 - 1999: With you anything goes! You're grunge one day, ghetto fabulous the next. It's all good! What Year Do You Belong In?

My Interests

Writing, reading, surfing, hanging out on the beach, traveling, engaging in lengthy debates and worthwhile conversations, listening to my eclectic music library, wandering, enjoying nature and the life that is mine (Other lives are welcome)
