Staring at this mirror and I'm wondering who you are.

This is basically a compilation of things that describe me really well. Basically, if you don't really know me that well, you would be able to find out a lot more just through these things.

To Write Love On Her Arms
-This is pretty much the first organization I've connected with. With all of the "emo" trends surrounding me I know this thing well. I've had many good friends who have struggled with self mutilation, and I understand the toll it takes on them and everyone around them. I'm lucky enough to never let it get to that point, but so many other people have. It's also a Christian organization, but they are so focused on helping others I think that has a very small part in it. Many of my favorite artists are supporting this organization, and I think it's great that because of them more people will find help. I'd encourage everyone to check it out, because most likely you know/know of someone who has done the same thing.









-Photography. I wish I had more time and ambition to pursue it. It's actually an art form I somewhat enjoy. I don't claim to be good at it at all, I know I'm probably far from that, but I love being able to look back at things and feel good about them. I like the feeling of taking a hundred pictures to get one that I think is decent. I am considering focusing more on this, and I hope something comes out of it.


The Rocket Summer
-Basically my everything. This man has changed my ideas on everything. I'm sure people get sick of me talking about TRS, but good music is hard to come by. The person he comes off to be is basically who I aspire to be and if you think I'm crazy then I ask you to read this.


Techno Dance
-Hahaha. I guess my personality comes out a lot through this video. My friends and I are obviously really cool, but this basically shows that I'm not always so serious and down on myself.







-These books have changed my opinion on literature a lot. Chbosky and Bukowski both write so honestly that I feel like exaggerating would be a crime. I'm sure Bukowski twisted things around to make himself look better, but he still doesn't come off as a very good person at all. But humans make mistakes.

Forever 21
-People tend to say this store reminds them of me. I hope that's a good thing. I love clothes and outfits. I secretly love it when people say "whoah I like that but I could never pull it off." haha. I do what I want I do what I want!
