About me: I'm a nerd, I guess? I like reading. I'm working on becoming a librarian, so I can spend the rest of my life surrounded by books.
I like going to shows, record shopping, and dancing at the aforementioned shows/to the aforementioned records. Also using the word 'aforementioned'. I ride my bike pretty much everywhere, and CTA-it the rest of the way.
I'm socially awkward when not inebriated, so if you see me out say hey.
Ain..t that the song? lol Yeah, I..m not that active online at the moment. I try to finish my studies soon. Well, at least I hope it will work out like I..ve planned. I..m fed up with uni! :P
