About Me

i'm a student. i love coffee, italy and old movies. i'm easily amused and satisfied. happiness is a choice, and i try to choose it everyday, though some days i give in and have a bad day like everyone else.i love squishing my toes in mud (but only if i can clean them off somewhat promptly), butterscotch candies, being alone at parks and museums, and a good whiskey. My pirate name is: Bloody Mary Flint Every pirate lives for something different. For some, it's the open sea. For others (the masochists), it's the food. For you, it's definitely the fighting. Like the rock flint, you're hard and sharp. But, also like flint, you're easily chipped, and sparky. Arr! Get your own pirate name from piratequiz.com.
