About Me

I'm a single city girl, making a living through art, and hoping someday that we finally get world peace. Future plans include: learning how to drive, owning a cute little blue-grey Vespa, getting a job that will push me above the poverty line and offers benefits, finding good and new restaurants, adopting a little dog...to name a few. Dreams include: world peace, shopping at Nordstrom's with an unlimited gift certificate, having a private chef, living in a castle in Italy, eternal spring, a chocolate fountain.
