Hiya. I’m Amanda. 23 year old living in Oklahoma with her roommate Melanie and her roommate’s two adorable dogs (a Westie named Martha and a puggle named Penelope), as well my beta fish Mr. Fish and my salamander, Toothless. I spend my time working (like, ALL. THE. TIME.), cuddling my wonderful boyfriend, watching Doctor Who (sometimes other shows), and attempting to find some time between all of those other things for my photography career, my writing, and my art. I fail miserably most of the time.

I’m the kind of person that leaves the nail polish on her toe nails for months at a time. I inhale novels and spent way too many hours watching television. I don’t like reality tv but singing competitions capture my attention every time. My taste in music is so eclectic that I have been known to jam out to Eminem, Demi Lovato, Rascal Flatts, and Mumford & Sons all in the same sitting. I am insatiably fascinated by nature and will spend my whole life trying to figure it out. I’m infatuated by crazy twists or modern takes on classic tales (like The Little Mermaid, modern versions of Jane Austen novels, and my favorite: anything based on Alice in Wonderland). I think eyes are the window to the soul, but so are words. The first love of my life was the English language (and how to use it). Sweet tea is my anti-drug, and spiders are my worst enemy. Sometimes I forget to stop and appreciate the things life gives me, but who doesn’t?
