There are a lot of beautiful girls out there who are creative, and funny, and oh so intelligent and possess some talent like writing (crappy) poetry or yoga or doing something profoundly deep and arty. Yup. Who knew there were so many of us??

Ha! Well, I'm really not into the idea of selling myself in this space of text. I hate talking about myself, and let's face it: you're really just judging me by my photo* and music taste (admit it!).

I CAN say that most people like me because I have a big heart and I make them laugh. I'm prone to bouts of silliness. I am slowly getting more and more competent at piano. I hate fake people and artifice. Imagination is key. I'm an excellent listener. I will always tell the truth, but I love to tease. I'm kind of unassuming, until you really get to know me and that's when I'll throw a box of Vagisil at you in Duane Reade and yell, "YEAST INFECTION!" It's my way of saying, 'Hey, I like you.'

*What's up with people posting sexxy photos of themselves? That's just...embarrassing. For everyone.

Staying true to myself, not making excuses, being a good person, having fun, being serious when I need to be, being successful on my own terms, trying to remember what's important in life.

Procrastinating, making people laugh, Being somewhat psychic, listening, being empathetic, kissing.

Obviously, that I'm a woman? Is this a trick question?

My first kiss was with my favorite musician.

You're creative, driven and sweet. You're inspiring and, ideally, you would inspire me. Someone to explore and relax with. Sincere. Kind to people and animals. Someone to poke fun with and laugh hard. Good kisser. Smells nice. You cook me food, I'll make dessert?
