Flames to dust.... Just waiting to be blown away

About Me

I'm throwing away three years of Business Studies to be a math teacher. I'm a total anglophile. None of my friends are local. I've been single for 5 years, I think enlightenment is around the corner. I have a 9 year old daughter. I love glitter and shiney things. I think peacocks are the coolest animal on earth. My eyes are beautiful. My hair feels like silk. I'm the best friend you'll ever have. I'd give anything to be happy again. I'm addicted to Burt's Bees Lip Balm. I don't have favorites, because I don't believe in limiting myself. I love my charm bracelet. I spend a lot of time online. My dogs mean the world to me. I love to cook, but rarely do. I read a lot. I have a lot of "quirks". I don't like talking on the phone. I get bored really fast. I have phases of obsessions. I'm very arts & craftsy. I love the smell of acryilic. Animals are my weakness. I want more than anything to matter.If it's true that our species is alone in the universe, then I'd have to say that the universe aimed rather low and settled for very little. - George CarlinThe nice part about being a pessimist is that you are constantly being either proven right or pleasantly surprised. - George F. WillThe truth that makes men free is for the most part the truth which men prefer not to hear. - Herbert AgarThe price of freedom of religion, or of speech, or of the press, is that we must put up with a good deal of rubbish. - Robert Jackson
