STERLING, VA
I'm weird, crazy, smart, and am willing to try most things. I laugh a lot, do what i'm asked, and I'm scared to death of failure. I appreciate persistance, but have an annoyance level limit. I love my friends, especiallly the crazy ones. AKA all of them :] I really want to go places. First college, then maybe law school, then just... traveling. Anywhere and everywhere. Music is my passion, and anything I can find that involves listening to or playing music, I'm there. Anything else you want to know about me is up to you to find out ;)
