Ah! I see you've found my page, here. I'm Mia. I consider myself an enlightened being and an old soul. I'm always trying to look at things more artistically... I suppose you could say I use the right side of my brain far more than the left. (I am left handed, after all). I'm a mere teenager going into high school, with only such patience with immature people. I'd love to go to an art college, particularly on the west coast. Yes, I am aware that idea may change, and no I'm not too smart for just an art college,. I believe creative individuals have the power to change the world in a positive manner. My favorite mediums are watercolor and photography. Surrealism is a favorite of mine. However, lately I've been intrigued by experimental avant-garde film.
Music is also a huge part of my life. Mostly listening to it (or 'jamming' as I like to say) , however I do practice bass guitar and ukulele. Music that I listen to specifically? Oh here comes the list:
The Doors, Nirvana, Roxy Music, Girls, The Raincoats, David Bowie, Brian Eno, MGMT, The Misfits, Grateful Dead, Phish, Led Zeppelin, Foo Fighters, Velvet Underground, Edward Sharpe and The Magnetic Zeros, Iggy Pop, T.Rex, Little Joy, Grimes, Johnny Thunders and a hell lot more. So. Much. More.
Anyways, feel free to talk to me. I'm open to any conversation from intellectual to casual.
Favourite genre of music: Classic rock, acid rock, indie and punk rock
Favourite style of art: Surrealistic and photography.
Shell of choice: I dearly enjoy seashells?
Personal Quote: "To be lost, is to deny exploration"
