about me:
Sometimes I'm a bad girl, but I still do good things. Ironically, those good things are often a direct extension of my badness. And this makes me even worse, because it means my sinister nature is makeing people unknowingly smile.
I Concider myself Suave and compromising. Careful, cautious and organized. I Like to point out people's mistakes. Quiet but able to talk well. Calm and cool. Kind and sympathetic. Concerned but hates detail. Loyal and usually honest. Does work well. Very confident. Sensitive. Thinking generous. Good memory. Clever and knowledgeable. Loves to look for information. Must control oneself when criticizing. Able to motivate oneself. Understanding. Fun to be around. Tends to bottle up feelings. Very choosy, especially in relationships.
