I am here for Friends

About Me

i try my very hardest to stay calm, true to myself, and present in every moment of everyday. i laugh a lot. i have blue toenails. i believe in love, but i dont trust it. i dabble in artsy crap like poetry, painting, and instrument playing. i enjoy yoga. i cant breakdance, or dance at all really. i play roller derby. i eat breakfast. i am curious about everything because i feel like there's a lot in this world to learn from. i love to meet new people, though im better at it when im drunk. sunglasses make me feel like a stranger. im good at kickball. i lack organizational skills. im afraid of ticks. i ask a lot of questions. i savor sleeping in when i can. magnanimity makes me feel warm and fuzzy.
