About Me

Holy freaking crap! I can't believe I have to summarize myself again. I'm way too lazy for all this paragraph biography bullshit.

Anyway, here are the basics: I'm a twenty-two year-old college graduate who studied writing and film. I currently live at home with my parents in Farmingdale, New York, but that's going to change as soon as I can get enough money to move out. I like to read, make jokes, and take moonlit walks on the beach. I enjoy setting heads on pikes, but not the actual act of decapitation. My favorite animal is the bunny. My favorite sub-type of bunnies is pink, with a cotton tail. They are adorable.

I have a fortune in stolen bonds hidden in my mattress. Don't tell the FBI.

Well, thanks for showing an interest in me, Internet. I'll be back real soon! I promise.
