About Me

I'm not gonna lie. I wish i could be this woman. I can never pull off silly little hats, because as cute as they look on you in the store, they always seem ridiculous out in the real world. But i love her mystery. Her wispy hair and her pearl bracelet... and although i have given up smoking, i have to admit, i miss it sometimes. I'm a romantic, hopeless as can be. If i had it my way, i would move to Chicago, and sit in cafes, and wear gaudy flowers on my sweaters, and watch the people pass me by outside, (and smoke) and just be. I wish i could be mysterious but i tend to wear my heart on my sleeve. I care too much what people think and my insecurities come off as pride. I dont think as highly as myself as people often assume i do. I'm more sensitive then i let on. I want to love, but i tend to hate. Iâ€™m a work in progress. And at the end of the day, I find my heart aching to do one thing, and one thing only. I want to make the world beautiful. Get your layout at Mypsace.org
