Interests
Im a very artsy person and someone who enjoys working with their hands with things like drawing, painting, building, and crafting. I enjoy scenery and would prefer to be out rather then to be indoors. Being social is someone I'm not usually afraid of and will go up to somebody if needed or break the ice in usually tense and awkward situations. Running is a passion of mine as well as music which Im usually either listening too or finding more music to listen too.
