I am 18 and I still goof off like I'm in high school. If you stop enjoying life, then you've stopped living.

I am generally a shy person. Eclectic tastes in random things. I enjoy the wierder things in life. A loner, but I love my best friends: Fluff, Tamalicious, Ayame, and Peturkle. I usually wear black and green, but I'm not Goth (People like to assume things). I love colors!

I enjoy writing stories, both original and fanfiction. I love drawing, and fingerpainting, playing with other mediums. I carry my sketchbook and pencils with me everywhere. I also have a fondness for photography, but I am still trying to figure out the camera that I have had for over a year...

I don't own photoshop, so all of my art is either edited on the paper, in the crap photo program that came on the installation of my scanner, or in Microsoft Paint.

I love reading, as well. My entire house is pretty much one big bookshelf. I take pride in doing the fun stuff, and not really collecting material possessions. Life experiences are more important that pirate booty...

I have a thing for androgynous guys, and tough, bad-ass biker chicks...And I love to kiss and cuddle. I am a hugger. Something's going good, you're going to get hugged. Be prepared!

Singing is another thing that I enjoy, and I write my own songs. They stink...but they're mine. Music is a large part of my life, and I like almost any genre, with the definate exception of polka. Something about accordians frightens the hell out of me. In highschool, I was in Marching band and Chorus. Freshman year, I played flute. Sophmore and Junior year I played Tuba. Now I play piano, and acoustic guitar, as well as wooden flute, drums, and didgeridoo (one of the most amazing instruments to play, especially if you have killer breath support!). ^^

I don't really have a set in stone religion, I believe in many things. I believe in God, and in Christ, but I also believe in reincarnation, Mother Earth, and the most important thing that I believe in is love. Regardless of the lines set between groups of people by organized religion, love is bigger. It transcends race, creed, gender, mental and physical abilities, sexuality, and social and financial status.

I am fairly liberal when it comes to politics, although there are a few things that I feel rather conservatively about. For example, I think that abortion is a rather wooly subject. I think that if you just couldn't be bothered to use preventative measures (My favorite is keeping your legs closed), you shouldn't abort, but in the event of rape, or danger to the mother's life if the pregnancy be continued, that is a decision that is best made by the carrying woman. So you see, I'm still pretty liberal, but maybe not as much so as all those out there that are okay with taking human life, as long as it's still a developing fetus.

My favorite time of the year are the weeks starting on black friday and going all the way up to New Year. I also really love Halloween.

My personality could probably be described as a caretaker. I like to take care of living things.
That's about all there is to know about me, really.
