Where shall we begin?

My name is Andrew T. Long. The "T" stands for Thomas. I'm as odd as they come, as kind as they're made, and as spiritual as it takes to make people vomit.

I am a vivid thinker. I've been called the da Vinci of my generation. I take the little inconspicuous things and show people how symbolic they truly are.

I'm a happy person, and I won't change myself to make you happy.

I want/have friends who are true human beings; people who are who they are, know how to laugh, and know how to live. That's my standard for friendship.

My favorite color is yellow. It's the happiest color on earth. My favorite flower is a daisy, for they are the happiest flower, and my favorite person is Kassi [link] , the only true artist I've ever known.

I'm a lovable guy, and I'll do anything to help you out. I don't like to leave my people hanging.

I love music, I love art, and I love knowledge. I want to go down in history as sagacious.

I am extremely intelligent. I am not prideful, but I do have an extremely huge ego that I flaunt constantly.

My passion is literature; I'm constantly writing poetry, which occasionally uses very figurative language and harsh words, depending on how I'm feeling.

I am interested in body piercings and tattoos. I understand that a lot of people frown at them and look down upon them. To me, they are a way of expressing one's individuality, and individuality is something that I encourage. It makes us who we are. A hole in your face or a tattoo on your arm do not make you a bad person, nor do they make anyone love you any less.

I'm a girly-man. I've been known to paint my finger and toe nails, and I straighten my hair often. I actually care about how I look, and I'll spend an hour picking out clothes and getting ready for school if I want. I love to shop, and I love anything metro. I'm sure I come off as a feminist to most people, but I devour the harsh comments they leave. I am who I am.

My favorite person, aside from my Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, is Kassi [link] . She's made my life utterly amazing, and she's the only human being I've physically spoken to that actually touches my soul and challenges my very existence. She's the only person I can talk to about absolutely anything, no matter what, and actually carry on an intelligible conversation about art or music. She's my everything, and she's what keeps me ticking.

If you read the above section, you'll find that I'm a Christian. That's right, I do love Jesus Christ, my Lord and Savior, the Light and the Life of the World, the Lion of Judah, the Redeemer, that Great Physician. I'm also what most would call a right winger and a conservative. I read my Bible often. I gain profound truths from what God tells me, and I'm connected to Him in ways I can't even begin to explain. My personal relationship with God has changed my life, especially since my baptism on March 29, 2009.

I'm a right-wing conservative from the word "go", and I'm terribly green. I have an addiction to getting organizations and community events put together, and I have a nasty little knack for bringing people together for a common cause.

So this is me. I'm on that adventure of human life, experiencing the human condition.

Are you?
