I am here for Friends and Networking

About Me

Usually I am the one laughing about nothing like a mad man. Or else I am the one studying everyone like I was going to write a book about them. But most of the time I am just relaxing on the couch having friends over playing a board game or having a dinner party.I just got a new puppy. His name is Banana and he has consumed my life. I am one of those people who obsesses about their dogs. I think I am going to make an iron-on shirt of his picture and wear it in public.I watch National Geographic and am fully of useless knowledge. Oh, but I always watch MTV and can get into "teenage-girl" mode.
