decorous

I AM CURRENTLY NOT PARTICIPATING DUE TO FINANCIAL AND OTHER CRISES.

My name is Elizabeth and I’m a twenty-something studying to become a psychologist in Tennessee (United States). My life is pretty average and boring, to be completely honest. I have a very close-knit family that I adore at times and loathe at others. I was lucky enough to meet my best friend and she keeps me sane when I’m knocking around the walls. I have two puppies that love to snuggle and eat milkbones.

My interests include Chuck Palahniuk novels, painting my nails, silly iPod games, watching bad reality shows, doodling in class instead of taking notes, making long lists I will never complete, taking photographs, marking days off the calendar, listening to The Beatles, etcetc. You can usually find me cuddled up in bed with my laptop and a fresh cup of tea, sneering at things that are wrong on the internet.

I have (illogical) aspirations of living in a posh loft in downtown with only my music & books to keep me company. Also, of traveling to Paris, London and most of Europe sending postcards to exes as revenge. Most of all I aspire to be happy and proud of myself, which is more to ask of myself than you can imagine.

I suppose that is about it.
