Hi, boys and girls. I'm Lu. I've been lurking around here for a while now, (in the most non-creepiest of ways, I promise.) but I've never posted. I tend to be a little e-shy and socially withdrawn. But hey, that's just me. I don't really consider myself a 'hippie', per say.. But I suppose if you had to squeeze me into a generic little social box, I'd best fit into the one labeled 'dirty, no-good hippie'. I'm a twenty-something year old dreadhead, living in the suburbs of St. Louis. I've always held a deep passion for anything 'new age'. I've had a strong interest for things like paranormal phenomena and human enigmas, ever since I can remember. On the other hand, I may just be the biggest 8 year old you will ever meet. I tend to have a dry sense of humor, which is often ignored, or misunderstood as an insult to one's intelligence. (Which I should probably apologize in advance for .) And, my musical tastes? Please, don't get me started. I treat music the way most civilized people treat their politics. Deep down, I really do love people. I love learning about the different backgrounds, cultures, religions, views and beliefs. Having said that, I'll probably be spending much more time on this forum than physically nessecary... Now, extend a 'hello', make me feel welcome.. would you? After all, I'll be seeing you around.
