About me
I may be young, and that's okay. Since age does not always bring wisdom. I may be stubborn to the point of stupidity; but at least I fight for my beliefs. I may be fooled by a lie; but I can then say I trusted. My heart may get broken however, then I can say I truly loved. With all this said I have lived. :D

I'm politically syncretic so stop asking. :)

Here in Pennsylvania (Amishland), it's illegal to sleep outside on your fridge.

On. Your. Fridge.

I enjoy meta-humor and self-deprecation. Annoying, right?

Goodbye.
