.listen.to.what.im.not.saying.

Im never any good at these things, I tend to barely scrape the edge of who I am, and thats definitely not why you're reading this in the first place. I'd hope you finish reading this with some knowledge of who Iam, but the truth is you won't. Knowing someone is the experience, it's not something you read on an internet profile.

So basically, Im Allyssa.
- I go to Holy Cross High School, and Im the biggest school spirit nerd you'll ever meet. I buy clothes just because they're green and white, sad huh?
- I enjoy hanging out with friends, parties, and all that entails being a 17 year old girl. Shopping, chick flicks, the opposite sex, and over using phrases like "OMG" and the word "like".
- Im a big fan of simple beauty and random acts of kindness.
- I love to write. I write anything from news paper articles, to poetry, to music, to short little messages in hopes of making someones day.
- I guess you could say Im big on meeting people. Im very outgoing, and it can sometimes be pretty intense. Im out of control.
- My faith means a lot to me as a person. I will be baptized in two months time, wanna come?
- I guess I should say something about my appearance. Im not one of those people who spend tons of time doing their hair (even though I should really think about becoming one with my mass of curls..ick) and looking in mirrors. I will admit Im guilty of this when Im in the right mood, but otherwise.... Im just me. I have a ton of curly brown hair, I have blue eyes, Im about 5'7 and thats me in the picture.
- My favorite place to be is the lake, on this one specific bench, staring out at the water. I miss that bench. Myself and my cousins always cause some havoc there in the midst of July. Be there.
- I cannot stand people who are ignorant of other peoples feelings and emotions. They're big jerks and need to learn a lesson or two about life.
- I owe many good nights to music. If it wasn't for those lyrics that just tend to make sense in my life, I would definitely be very messed up. Music is life, live it.
- Finally, I am a devout optimist, it sickens even me at times.

Enough about me, let's talk about YOU.
