You be careful. People in masks can not be trusted.

About Me

I graduate in less than three months (if I can make it through 3 more Spanish classes), and my head is filled with hopeful dreams of what I can do when it is all over.I just got back from the most amazing trip to New York. I say it all the time, but I really want to move there.I went to Catholic schools for 13 years. For the first nine of those, we attended mass every Tuesday and Friday, and inevitably, I would always sit next to the kid that had syrup for breakfast. My siblings find that my overwhelming sense of smell (or sense of bad smells) is something that I need to get over, but how can you?My dreams are plagued by waiter nightmares on a regular basis.I am trying to find another band that I can actually enjoy as much as my three existing favorites.I'm not a fan of Dallas, but I love my family and friends way too much.I want to go to Barcelona and New Zealand and Ireland and Scotland and Morocco and Jamaica and Bangkok.My number one goal before I turn 30 is learn how to do the moonwalk. Learning sign language and tap dancing are up there too.I have the greatest friends. I wish they weren't scattered all over the country.

My Interests

i hate staying in one place too long. i love to travel and see what i am missing out on in other places. NYC. people watching. ethnomusicology. black coffee. being the "old lady" in class. people that actually give thoughtful presents. yoga, when i actually do it. sushi. sunday drives. my roommate's growing collection of lone star pict-o-gram caps. greek food. i love to walk into a bar and see people that don't necessarily look like they belong in the same place. i really like to find a juke box with great music on it. creamy peanut butter. bloody mary snowboard breaks. dogs. bbq's. lavender. ben gibbard. nutella. sudoku. swingsets. the sound of trains. evolution No. 9. board games. drinking beer out of a bottle. flowers of any kind as long as it's not a rose. lincoln continentals with suicide doors. and snowboarding...just because i'm a bad ass.

I'd like to meet:

It would be nice to meet someone who has experienced orange juice in a box(the European kind with the plastic flip top) that can share my love for it.
