My name is Merril. I'm 16 I have goals and dreams like other teenagers of my generation. I live in a city 10 minutes away from St Louis Missouri on the other side of the river in Illinois. From far away it looks like Gotham City. I believe everyone can say that they've "been through it all" for every living situation is different from everything. My love for science extends farther than I can see like the vast universe itself. I write in constant motion and everything I jot down on paper is happening. My dreams inspire me and terrify me and I think all dreams in general represent that part of the brain that hasn't evolved yet in our time. I have the horrible habit of smoking cigarettes but I can still move my feet. Concerts give me ego-boost's and at the same time I feel apart of the crowd as one. I'm a safe risk taker which means I like to have fun but still know whats best for me when it comes to going to far. Movies are a gift to man-kind that our generation should be very thankful for that fact that our technology is exceeding rapidly makes me look forward to getting old. At the same time these years go by faster than one can blink. I'm nothing more than average, not here to judge and you shouldn't either.
