"Talk to me for a moment, ask me who I am, where I came from and who, then what I truly believe and perhaps you will know me as you know yourself."

It hurts for me not to write a huge ditty about who I am and all that jazz, but a meaningful person inspired me to write something wiser. How can I write about me, and how I feel about life? How extraordinarily complex. Should I start when I began life, or when I began living? A brief summary doesn't cut it. As I am inspired and changed from day to day, hour to hour, minute to minute, by fate, there is no way I can write an exact -about me.- I am not going to tell you who I am, who I think I am, and who others think I am. I want you to figure that out. Anyone can write an -about me.- Only you can figure out the real me, because you will make me who I am.


My current mini-obsession is: I'm starting to have an art interest.
Here's where I write weird facts about myself: I have this OCD where my food has to be even. Like, if I am eating a sandwich- I take a bite out of one end, then the same shape and size but on the other end, then a deeper bite in the middle, and then I even it out. I do this whole intricate design! And when I eat yougurt, I have to spin my spoon AROUND the yogurt so it stays it shape. Since I was a little kid, I pulled at and rubbed my ears. My dad told me it was better than sucking my thumb. But I still do it today. I always need to match, and I cannot wear a t-shirt without layering a tank top under it. I need to wear my necklaces and bracelets every day. If my bracelet doesn't match, I have to put a hairband on my arm. I always have to wear hair ornaments in my hair, it can't just be a hairband alone. I have to have a clip, or a pen, or a braid, or a ribbon, or even a flower. I like to look creative like that. I am fascinated with hands. I like to touch people's hands and observe how they move and look at all the different ridges. And I like to name eye colors. Eyes are so interesting, they have so many different patterns than just blue or brown. I do a lot of other things that you may notice and I will put some more stuff on here because it really does tell a bit about who I am.

Quotes I Live By:
Quotes fill the void in my life. I say them every day, so you probably know them by now.
From life:
Life is slippery, here- take my hand.
These are but wild and whirling words.
Wisdom begins in wonder.
You can't expect people to look you eye to eye if you are always looking down on them.
You must be so drunk on writing so that reality cannot destroy you.
Distance means so little when someone means so much.
From songs:
"And though its just a line to you, for me its true It never seemed so right before. I practice every day to find some clever lines to say To make the meaning come through. But then I think I'll wait until the evening gets late And I'm alone with you. The time is right your perfume fills my head, the stars get red And oh the nights so blue. And then I go and spoil it all, by saying something stupid like I love you."
"The best is yet to come." F.S
"It will defeat you then teach you to get back up, after it takes away all that you've learned to love. But you don't always have to hold your head higher than your heart. You better hope you're not alone." J.J
"Well I tell you life is sweet, in spite of the misery, theres so much more, be grateful." N.M
"You could make the devil fall in love." B.D
"Like the greatest romances, you and I will take our chances, we're gonna get away, we're gonna make our way, out of this town. And when we make it to the city, lean in close and you will kiss me." Arkitekt
"But I'm sure it didn't ruin her, it just made her more interesting. I know why, because when I look in your eyes I just see the sky. I don't love you I'm just passing the time. You could love me if I knew how to lie. But who could love me, I am out of my mind? Throwing a line out to sea, to see if I can catch a dream...." PATD
"So I turned myself to face me, But I’ve never caught a glimpse, Of how the others must see the faker, I’m much too fast to take that test."
"And these children that you spit on, As they try to change their worlds, Are immune to your consultations. They’re quite aware of what they’re going through." D.B
From poems:
"But we loved with a love that was more than love."
"Is all that we see or seem but a dream within a dream?"
"That little time with lyre and rhyme To while away- forbidden things! My heart would feel to be a crime Unless it trembled with the strings." e.a.p
"Passing stranger! You do not know how longingly I look upon you." W.W
