I am constantly learning and in pursuit of understanding myself and the world around me better. I am fairly hedonistic, and will try to derive as much pleasure as I can from life. I do have ambitions and goals, but they're probably not ones many would find particularly amazing or admirable. I live selfishly. I have no qualms about that.

I have a rather strong personality that some people may find a bit grating. I am decisive, smart, and try to be as kind as I can. I am full of flaws, dualities, and quirks. That said, I still think I'm a fairly balanced person.

I feel like I'm coming off a bit dry, but I'm actually a lot more silly than this short summary would imply. Poop.

I'm wandering, but have a vague idea about the general direction I might want to take. Does that make sense?

Talking, cooking, being snarky and witty, understanding jokes right away, except when I am completely gullible, being silly, being serious, resting, being restless

Lately, I've been good at making myself laugh. Honestly, I'm just an idiot, it's kind of great.

I'm direct, intelligent, immodest, and also, I'm very short. They seem to notice that right away and focus on it. I get it.

Oh, and my glasses. They're pretty rad. I need them to see, so they aren't just to look like a dad from the 50's, I swear!
