Nissy.

A College senior. A Violinist. A Pianist. Simply put, a Musician. An avid reader. A video-game Player. A Writer. A Poet. A Speaker. A Dreamer. A Traveler. Occasionally, a Cook. Or a Baker. A Gift-maker. A Good Friend (or so she hopes). A Teacher. A Goal-er. A Fencer. An Organizer. A Hufflepuff on Pottermore. And of course, a List-maker.
