About Me

I like surprises. I don't however, like how "surprise" is spelled. I cringe at the "lol" epidemic. Unless you're actually laughing out loud, in which case I guess it's okay, but I still don't like it... I overuse ellipses because I really like them too, almost as much as surprises, but not as nearly as much as music and trees and traveling and great people... They're actually all over the place if you look for them. If I had a band it would be called Treefingers...
I think it's amazing what music can do, and I find it difficult to decribe what some of it does for me. I had never seen my favorite band, Radiohead until I saw them five times in August of 2008. Those beautiful concerts will go down in history as some of the highlights of my life.
"Beloved, gaze in thine own heart,
The holy tree is growing there."
- W. B. Yeats
"What is done out of love always takes place beyond good and evil."
- Nietzsche
"Distrust all in whom the impulse to punish is powerful!"
- Nietzsche
"Each friend represents a world in us, a world possibly not born until they arrive, and it is only by this meeting that a new world is born."
- Anais Nin
