Ok, so honestly I’ve always been obsessed with dissecting myself. My life, my thoughts, the time I met John Mayer in Times Square at 4am. What does it all mean!? I have an intense need to articulate my feelings, turn my tears into laughters, and write it all down for thousands of strangers on the internet to read. Some people consider me a creative genius, others think of me as “unwell” (all my exes and their families). Why not decide for yourself as your read my thoughts, stories, opinions, and dare I say…musings.
