I love art, music, coffee houses, clothes, candles, incense, discussing religion, Absinth/Abinsthe,  reading, walking, makeup application, dancing, anything red,  and sleeping with Stephen beside me.
I'm not sure... I like conversing, making music and words that go and don't.  I like drinking, dancing, huging, smiling, finding the beauty in things, kissing, smiling, crying, conecting, travaling, writing, painting, and others writing painting, music, photos, faces, love etc....but my favorite is Marissa.
