I want to take you far frm the cynics in this town

I'm Julia. This is my life. My life is characterized by some mix of snark & optimism;my likes range from the delicate to the ironic. I want to be near the ocean. I believe the world is a beautiful place.

This blog is a celebration of nature, of change, of courage, of kindness, of bliss, of life, of the universe.

Talk to me. Ask me something. Tell me a secret. Tell me your hopes & dreams.

One thing I am is self-aware (to a neurotic fault), and I recognize that a massive percentage of my self-esteem depends on the attention of a series of smug boys at the University of Vermont.

Sorry for the spamming related to this story, but this quote is a giant GPOY of my life for 4 (pretty damn wonderful) years.
