*marieky's profile:

I'm a twenties year old female. I'm a great listener and I can identify with many individuals. I'm learning a lot about dealing with various issues and the effective approach to take. Life is full of experiences, I'm trying to learn from others and my own past so that I may not repeat the bad ones. I'm here to be a shoulder and also vent when necessary. My zodiac sign is the crab, so at times my emotions can be so unpredictable, but I'm working on being more positive and loving. Got my b.s. degree also although its in life science but maybe that can be useful with some questions. Newayz feel free to add me or send a message.
