About Me

I like to think I'm pretty outgoing and friendly, and I really love meeting new people. I have way too many interests for my own good. I wish I was better at everything. I am a perfectionist.

One day I will change the world.

I believe in romance. I believe in love. Someday I hope to find someone that's worth my time and who feels I'm worth his.

I am an open book, yet I also hold a lot in that not even my best friend knows. It's part of who I am, to be trusting yet never trust anyone. I am a idealist, though at the same time I am more of a realist than is healthy for anyone.

There's a lot to be said about me, so maybe I'm not the best person to describe myself. But if you have questions, I suppose I'm the best person to come to.

I'm waiting for you.

I have a website here: Mercury .
