I’m Helena. Most people find that a bit difficult and choose to call me “hep†or “hp†or “hâ€. Doesn’t bother me. I’m tall, pale, and half-Norwegian. I was born in Indianapolis.. raised on the coast of NC.
I’m a grown ass soul. I’m a realist and can be brutally sarcastic, but I'm always jolly. I'm not easily bothered. I get bored easily. I have a LOT of quirks. Most of them take a while to come out. I love people, but humanity disappoints me. I don’t crush easily, but I don't mind. I can’t get enough social contact and love the company of others, but I am stubborn and independent and refuse to rely on other people. I tend to be nomadic and usually live out of my car. I have moved six times in less than two years.
I used to be one of the top 100 amateur pianists in the United States. I stopped playing when I came to college.
I worked late-nights on S. Glenwood when I was 18.
I am ridiculously easygoing and non-confrontational to a fault.
I have a hard time producing body heat.
I need to travel, but I rarely do it.
Salt is my favorite food. I hate sweet tea and country music.
That probably won’t give you an accurate idea of me at all. I’m a mess of mixed clichés and I enjoy breaking every one of them. I like surprising people.
