I am here for Friends

About Me

I love my friends, I love my family, I love soccer (thank you World Cup), I love anything foreign, I love books, I love video games, I love Europe, I love school, I love guitar, I love music, I love Eugene, I love poetry, but I hate a lot of people.

My Interests

I like girls, but they don't like me (I have to stop self-loathing). I like to play tennis, most underrated sport. I really like playing guitar, but I need to work on writing my own stuff, and the didgeridoo is also a very cool instrument but I can't play it with a straight face (but hey, I can still circular breath, can you?!). Other than that I like talking politics, learning Spanish, science, math, nerdy stuff. I really like being a bully for fun. I was tiny up until the end of my sophomore year so I just push kids around and stuff like that, try it, it's very empowering. Most of all I'm interested in socializing the world, I think that would be pretty sweet I guess.
You Are 25 Years Old

You question authority and are still trying to find your place in this world.20-29: You are a twentysomething at heart. You feel excited about what's to come... love, work, and new experiences.30-39: You are a thirtysomething at heart. You've had a taste of success and true love, but you want more!40+: You are a mature adult. You've been through most of the ups and downs of life already. Now you get to sit back and relax. What Age Do You Act?

I'd like to meet:

I'd like to meet the cast of Lost, greatest show ever made, the cast of Lord of the Rings, greatest movie(s) ever made. I really want to meet the members of Coldplay. I think their music is unbelievable, but that's in the music section. After watching the Motorcycle Diaries I would like to meet Che Guevara (I sound like a hippie college student, but man that guy was revolutionary until the U.S. government had him killed). I'd also like to meet the president and his cabinet to see what exactly his motivation is for ruining this country.

Mulan
You have a strong sense of family vaule and always strive for their approval. You have a special love of music, dance, and riding. Oh yeah, Mulan's pretty hot, so I guess I'm happy, plus she kicks all the guys butts. And who doesn't love having a dragon with the voice of Eddie Murphy as your best friend?

Television:

Lost is pretty much my favorite show. Some people stopped watching after the polar bear showed up on the tropical island, but i stuck with it. A polar bear was crazy, but if you just watch the show, there are so many metaphors and cool things to be learned hidden in the dialogue and especially in the plot, whatever the deal is on that island, it's pretty crazy. I watch some reality tv, but only the good stuff like Survivor and the Amazing Race, other than that the only other shows I really can't miss are the Simpsons and probably Family Guy, and oh yeah, 24, except that show makes muslim people look bad, which isn't cool.

Books:

At this moment I can't really read the books I wanna read, because of required reading in my classes. The American Nation, ap us history textbook, oh yeah, that's a keeper. But seriously, A People's History of the United States of America by Howard Zinn is the most accurate and rightfully biased history book ever, excellent! However, I finished Catcher in the Rye and it's an unbelievable book, really awesome. Cuss words, prostitutes, old guys picking their nose, what's not to love. I read this one book called the Third Eye which is about buddhist life in Tibet, it turned out to be a hoax, but it's an awesome book. I like reading about world history too, and religions, even though that's a point of conflict in my life.

Heroes:

My MOM and DAD and SISTER. I find anyone who treats a democracy the way it should be treated as heroic. As Thomas Jefferson said, "Dissent is the highest form of patriotism." Anyone who works for peace and the underdog: Che Guevara, Jimmy Carter, Subcomandante Marcos, Eugene McCarthy, BONO for sure.

Racist America

It's because of bigotted, racist and sexist assholes like Charles Murray that American society will continue to be stuck in the mud. Thank this douchebag. ...
