Sammy Francis
Political Science and Philosophy major- spend most of my time writing lyrics, poems or in my journal, playing guitar/various instruments, composing and recording songs, working on my novel, reading, meditating, thinking heavily about everything (42) and enjoying life in whatever way seems right at that specific moment.
