About Me

I go to James Madison University. I'm an English major and a Theatre minor, but I tend to be interested in anything that happens to catch my eye, usually for a short amount of time, and then I move on. I like to think I'm intelligent, but who the hell knows. I'm a total homebody, I love to relax by myself, watch TV and movies, hang out with a few friends. I'm not really into partying in huge obnoxious crowds. I'm pretty laid back, and drama drives me insane.

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

I'm good with meeting anyone, but I'm not really in the market for friends, say, ten years older than me. If you're going to add me, send a message along with it. I'm not a fan of the people with 13,429 friends, I think adding people just to add them is a really stupid practice. I also don't like it when people add me just because I'm from your area and am gay. Just saying.

Hot's better

So the semester ended a couple weeks ago, and my GPA went up, inexplicably. And I'm taking an English survey right now, which seems nice, although I overslept today and missed it. Stupid. But it's onl...
