I like women and sometimes I just wish they liked me back.

I like being alone 95% of the time. The last 5% usually happens between the hours of 10:00pm and 6:00 am.

I used to be obsessed with posters.

I can't really act. But I really really really want to. I'm thinking about ditching this whole directing route and just settle for BEING directed.
