I am here for Friends and Networking

About Me

My heels are crossed, my hair is draped over my left shoulder, and my eyes are heavy from having to keep them open all day.
Happy. Sleepy. Bored.
There's a little bug flying over my monitor.
Squinting to see past the big picture of spiritual meanings; trying to focus and remain present in the day to day activities of physical experience. Getting better every day.
Film Maker. Web Designer. Sister. Artist. Photographer. Dancer. Dreamer. Lover. Friend. Daughter. Reader. Initiator. Vegetarian. Cook. Writer. Producer. Eater. Laugher.
What is there to know about me? There's a difference between knowing about me and knowing me? Which would you prefer? Do you want to know the good things or the bad things? Generally people only like mentioning the good things about themselves. Or the things they like about themselves. Or the things they like to embellish about themselves. So when you say about me do you mean the things I've achieved? The things I have experienced? The things that I think about? Maybe things I like or dislike? How much do you know about me already? What don't you want to know? I might tell you all the things you never wanted to know and omit the things you did! That would be pretty sneaky of me. I change my underwear every day. That's probably a good thing to know about me. I don't like naming my experiences. Probably why I don't remember names of things.
I ask a lot of questions. That's something.
I'm learning Hebrew.
I can make websites.
I can make films.
I like art.
I don't eat mammals or fowl or ungilled sea creatures without scales.
I'm addicted to sushi and indian food.
I have trouble sitting still for long periods of time
I can't see past my nose when I'm not wearing my glasses
I like to dance
Sometimes I behave strangely. Usually when I'm bored. Sometimes when I'm deep in thought. Sometimes I'm just trying something different.
There's a chance I've bumped into you on the street. Literally. I probably didn't notice. I'm sorry.
I find the world to be an interesting place. I want to know more.
I want to make a difference. Does it matter that I'm only 5'6"?
