Hi everyone. My name is Mars (alias) and I'm 22 years old, living in northern California. I've tried the dating apps and have even posted in this subreddit before (whoops), but haven't had much luck. I'm mostly looking to make romantic connections and meet people irl that are also living in California, but am open to others reaching out too :)

Warning: word vomit ahead

A little bit about me: • I'm Mexican-American • I'm a first year 6th grade teacher in a bilingual classroom (English Spanish). • I'm in grad school, getting my Master's in Education • I really enjoy thrifting, singing, playing tbe ukulele (badly), going for walks, trying new food/restaurants, playing video games, watching tiktoks, etc (vvv lowkey, chill activities) • I'm an Aries sun, Leo moon, Aqua rising (yes, I really like astrology, tarot, and all of the other witchy things, sorry not sorry) • I love animated shows (Blue Eye Samurai, Steven Universe, Legend of Korra, etc), comedy-drama shows (OitNB, PEN15, Shameless, etc), and horror movies • For music, I'll listen to anything and everything (pop, rock, rap, musicals,,, anything) • I'm not a big drinker (mostly social) or smoker

Appearance-wise, I'm 5'1", midsize/curvy, I have long, dark brunette hair, and brown eyes (there's a photo of me on my profile for those that are curious). I have two tattoos, although not very noticeable (definitely need more) and have three lobe piercings (again, I need more). I'd say I'm pretty femme, but have been leaning a little more into masc fashion the last couple of years.. so I guess you could say, chapstick lesbian,, or even futch? (I wish).

What I'm looking for: • (Preferably) someone living in CA • Someone between 20-26 • Someone I can yap with about anything, the mundane and not-so mundane

But yeah, that's basically the gist :) If you reach out, tell me about yourself,, or even skip the small the talk if you really want lol.
