About Me


"What's terrible is to pretend that the second-rate is first-rate, that you don't need love when you do or that you like your work when you know quite well you're capable of better."
-Doris Lessing

My name is Kristin.
I am a Capricorn to a fault.
I hold the titles of mother, daughter, and significant other.
My close friends are like my blood - they are family.
I am a vegetarian; my significant other is a butcher.
I would like to be a pediatric nurse one day.
I truly believe that getting a tattoo is therapeutic.
I am trying to live a meaningful life in a small town.
I find that the only thing I can't finish are paintings.
I will travel to Japan one day, preferably in the Spring.
I try to make a habit of appreciation.

To get to the point, I have a fabulous life.

Current Obsessions: Geisha, Johnny Cash, Symbology.
Current Reading: The Lord of the Rings by J.R.R. Tolkien.
