I have a thing for Barack Obama

this is my deep and meaningful headline quote

About Me

I'm hopelessly addicted to literature, music, and coffee. Even more so when those three come in some sort of combo. I'm a sociology major, I plan to go to law school after that. I'm from Ukraine, and yes that does mean I know how to ice skate. :-)
Paris!
