I'm a collector of interesting people and experiences. I have a poet's heart but a scientist's mind. Half of me likes to think I can daydream my way to the answers but the other half knows that will never work and the answer's in the "real" world. This constant tug of war has taught me that the answer lies somewhere in the middle but applying the answers is always the tricky part.

Just moved here from Tennessee to take a little break from college and be closer to family. You know all those things you used to do before school took up most of your time? Yeah, I'm doing ALL that. Reading, writing, gaming etc. Trying to get it all out of my system before I start school here in the fall.

I refuse to say I could never do without these things. I don't like it when possessions own people, but for the sake of the exercise I'll stop being a fun sucker.

I'm very hesitant to trust super attractive people

You want a engaging conversation but please for the love god be good at it. There's nothing more frustrating than a one word answer, like wtf am I supposed to do with that?
