I hate trying to describe myself, and I've finally figured out why! I am too complex to describe in a short paragraph. But I'll try not to write a novel either.

I am:
Passionate
NERDY
honest
funny
a middle child
a crier
a Grammar Goddess
a Christian
a girly girl
a "bro" - on occasion
worth your time

I'm not:
good at being on time
athletic
average
a doormat
a size 2
a morning person

I am a complicated person. I am a mix of innocence and maturity. I have ignorance about a handful of things, but am by no means not intelligent. I have had a lot of experiences not typical to 25 year-olds.

I fall in love way too fast. It takes me very little time to know if I will love a person, activity, TV show, anything. And once I fall, I am lost forever. I don't fall back out of love. I have learned how to move on from it though.

I have a lot of strength. I am strong in bad situations. I am strong in my forgiveness of others.

I am a Christian, but I am also liberal. I believe that loving others is much more important than many little things in the Bible. I'm not an expert by any means. I just joined a very open church, and am learning. If you'd like a better idea of my beliefs, look up the lyrics to "I am Nothing" by Ginny Owens.

Below are some quotes that really tell about me:

"The most authentic thing about us is our capacity to create, to overcome, to endure, to transform, to love, and to be greater than our suffering." - Ben Okri

"If you can't make love to my mind, my heart, and my spirit, I'll never have an orgasm anyway. "

"You use absurdity in a way that is poignant and meaningful." One of the nicest compliments I've ever gotten, from my sister.

"The greatest waste in the world is the difference between what we are and what we could become." -Ben Herbster

“A friend is one that knows you as you are, understands where you have been, accepts what you have become, and still, gently allows you to grow.” - William Shakespeare

"If we knew each others secrets, what comforts we should find"- John Churton Collins

"All changes, even the most longed for, have their melancholy; for what we leave behind us is a part of ourselves; we must die to one life before we can enter another.” - Anatole France

"Knowing is rarely a prerequisite for hating" --- Julia Quinn

Aside from that, I am extremely honest. Feel free to ask me anything. :)

I'm taking a break from school to work for a bit. And I just started selling Avon, so if you're reading this, and would like some quality skin care/makeup/perfume, let me know! :)
I'm becoming more involved in my church, singing in the choir, and volunteering when I can. I'm studying Psychology. I am going to be a sex educator/activist, (much like Dan Savage.) I also help my family out as much as I can.
