I am here for Friends

About Me

♥ i'm oddly enamoured with classical things; elizabethan
court intrigues, victorian clothing, gothic architecture...
♥ i'm a shameless panda-lover. they are so darn cute!
♥ i'm deathly afraid of the dark.
♥ italy, a moped, and sunshine will be the
prime ingredients for my best vacation ever.
♥ i hang up the phone too quickly.
♥ my first and true loves are new york city and books.
♥ i'm not certain why people have
trouble pronouncing my last name.
♥ i always have to nibble or tap something.
♥ i'm scared of driving, but i love riding in cars.
♥ i have no sense of rhythm whatsoever.
♥ my first crush was rochester in jane eyre.
♥ i have yet to taste a kumquat.
♥ i tend to like dead things - latin, chivalry, poets...
♥ i sing silly pop songs when i'm alone
in the house after watching a scary movie.
♥ i use capital letters less often than e.e. cummings.
♥ bodice rippers are my guilty pleasures.
♥ i own a stuffed lobster. i named him lobster mobster.
♥ i have a soft spot for grandmothers.
♥ i adore giving my friends awful, cutesy pet names.

My Interests

dimly-lit libraries, violet beauregard, moonshine (the silly kind), gale harold's crooked grin, lemon danishes from au bon pain, distressed jeans, minimalism in interior design, mario testino's photography, vintage jackets and blazers, and hating on piet mondrian. seriously.
