About Me



My Interests

Be warned: I'm a huge nerd. I tend to alphabetize things, especially lists (see: Movies, TV). My closet is arranged in color order. I arrange books by size. I read pretty much anything, at least when I have time, but my interests are mostly in sociology and pop culture. Obviously, I also read French and education-related stuff, but when I'm reading for fun, I try not to mix business and pleasure. I love to people watch, be it in a mall, on the street, or in a bar. I have yet to be beaten at Trivial Pursuit.
