NAME: KENZ  AGE: TWENTY THREE TIMEZONE: EASTERN CONTACT: AIM IS MOOSELEROOSE ABOUT YOU: Hey guys for starters I follow from my main, tauntaunrider, but I like to keep rp stuff separate from all my horse and doggy posts. I live in a constant state of stress and trying to figure out what the hell to cook for dinner. On my time off I play pokemon like a small child and feed horses at a barn in exchange for riding. I also have a photography business on the side and you should totally check out my photography some time. I love super heroes and abilities and Heroes in general (looking forward to the mini series thing they're making  !!!!). My face claims vary as i have a lot of favorites. If you have some ideas and maybe need a lover or a sibling or something let me know because I love to fill wanted ads.
