Introduction You know, "that girl"? Well, I think every one has a little bit of "that" person in us. Sometimes, I just have a little more than most. I'm either "that girl" dancing with a lampshade on her head, "that girl" singing at the top of her lungs at a stop light, or "that girl" who's always the hopeless romantic depending on the day. I love dancing with the world intoxicated by music, love, and life. Sitting here scratching away with this pencil at a blank abyss to explore is my passion. Give the nonsense I have posted here a chance and share with friends.
Interests anything and everything but to be more specific: chai tea lattes, reading a ridiculous amount of books on my new Kindle, writing, going out with friends, parties, a nice glass of red wine, traveling the world, art, furniture, waking up early during the summer and walking around campus before it gets unbearably hot, exercising, hiking, taking pictures, singing karaoke and pretending like I'm a famous singer, having long conversations with friends, living spiritually but not necessarily religiously, being healthy in mind body and spirit, shopping and not buying anything, people watching but not the stalkery kind of people watching, butterfly gardens, really large lily pads, strawberries and whipped cream for desert, those nights that you remember for the rest of your life, discovering music, cool gadgets that entertain me or make my life easier, talking about politics even though I hate politics, multitasking because I get bored easily, trying new things, hobbies for the sake of learning another skill, watching movies, making capaccinos on the espresso machine I got my mom, fantasizing about where my life will go, procrastinating when I have something due, and anything else that is interesting
