About Me


Who am I? Well, I could tell you where I'm from, what I've done, where I work, where I live, what I like and don't like, but would you really know me, or just stuff about me?
Aspiring writer. Aries to the core. Tech lover. Artist. Peace Activist. Blogger. Protester. Lover. Dreamer. Myspace Addict. Conspiracy Theorist.
Without love, nothing else matters. I really dig music, art and film because they remind us of everything both good and bad in this world, and that another world exists outside of this one. I'm a pacifist. I don't think that foreign terrorists were the cause of tragedy on September 11th. I think the so called war in Iraq is nearly as bad, if not worse, than Vietnam. I think it should be ended immediately. I am shocked at how many of our freedoms are being lost by the patriot act. I usually bring politics and religion up in conversation, even when meeting someone for the first time. Life may not always go the way that you want or turn out exactly like you wish, but it's also too short for regrets.

I'd like to meet:

I have gone through a lot of change lately, so I would really enjoy meeting those who have had a similar journey. I get along with everyone who can be honest and willing to share. I am not into shallow or arrogant people who never let down their guard. Understanding me is easy, be open and I will let you into my heart. I am a very understanding, loving and accepting person.
