hello ij, i'm angel. i should have been alive in the 60s. i'm 22, i'm obsessed with music, good art, writing, etc. i have tons of tattoos and i'm not done, and some piercings. i'm very friendly but i don't comment around a lot. i so read everything though. i never check my f/o, so just add me and we'll be buds!

I'm looking for some fresh faces to add to my friends list! I'm not as active on ij as I used to be but only because my life has been full of work and travel for the past month and a half. I'm leaving tomorrow on another trip and afterward will be settling down for school so I'll be updating and commenting a lot more often.

I'm a pretty easy going, non-judgmental, spontaneous person. I've learned to let go of past events and because of that all drama surrounding my life is gone as well. I'm interested in a variety of things: photography, painting, drawing, reasding, writing, philosophy, history, sociology, psychology, ancient greece, elizabethan and victorian era, europe and morocco, culture and diversity, spirituality, buddhism, yoga and meditation, pilates and aerobics, music, travel, "daredevilism", etc...

I recently (3 months ago) adopted a more healthy lifestyle by cutting out most junk food, eating really healthy, and working out once or twice a day. Because of that I have lost 20 lbs of fat and gained 8 lbs of muscle. Not a huge improvement but it takes time.

I'm happily single and live with my cat. I'm planning on adopting an adorable little shih tzu into my animal family when I move back to Toronto in the fall.

I love music, mostly post punk. Some of my favorite bands are The Smiths, Joy Division, White Rose Movement, Talking Heads, The Fall, The Birthday Party, Talking Heads, The Knife, Tom Waits, Nick Cave, etc... but lately I've been listening to a lot of Broken Social Scene, Phoenix, Crystal Castles, and Familjen.

I'm not sure what else to say. I'm open to adding basically anyone so add away. :)
