Nicole

Forgive me all my blindedness, my weakness and unkindnesses, as yet unbending still.

About Me

I'm vegan. I can't sit still. I will do anything for my friends and family. I'm stubborn. I'm smart. I'm a fucking mess. I sing all the time. I dislike the smell of lavender. I'm sleep deprived. I'm a hopeless romantic. I have grand plans. I don't like it when people touch my things. I'm afraid of the dark. I think religion is silly. I'm dedicated. I get emotional. I'm an existentialist. I'm open-minded. I'm critical. I'm a night owl. I'm a morning person. I'm complicated. I don't tolerate ignorance.

My Interests

I like, in no particular order: reading, music, theater, television, movies, food, yoga, drinking in excess, smoking, coffee, pulling hair out of my knees with tweezers, arguing, flirting, eating pickled asparagus out of the jar, do it yourself projects that I never finish, and buying new clothes when the ones I already have merely need washing but I'm too lazy.

I'd like to meet:

People who see injustices in the world and want to change them. People who know the difference between "your" and "you're". Also, if you're a fellow vegan or vegetarian, I'd like to meet you as well. I'm completely fine with adding people to my list I don't know ... but please, at least send me a message first. I am not going to add you if we haven't had at least a brief conversation.

Music:

Sam Phillips, The Devlins, Regina Spektor, Superdeluxe, Holly Brook, Zero 7, Katie Melua, Aiden, Imogen Heap, Pretty Girls Make Graves, Panic! at the Disco, Neutral Milk Hotel, Leah Andreone, Apples in Stereo, Amber Pacific, Fiona Apple, Anna Nalick, Something Corporate, Cary Brothers. Hell, I don't know, I listen to a lot of things. Yes, even country.

Movies:

Acts of Worship; Amelie; Donnie Darko; Fight Club; Good Will Hunting; Heavenly Creatures; Hideous Kinky; High Art; Lucky Number Slevin; Manny and Lo; Maria Full of Grace; Run Lola Run; Tears of the Sun; True Romance; Waking Life

Television:

I love TV, but sadly do not have much time to watch it anymore. Here is a list of the shows I would watch if I could. Project Runway; Gilmore Girls; So You Think You Can Dance; House; Prison Break; The Daily Show; Family Guy; The Colbert Report; Ghost Whisperer; Numb3ers; American Dad; The War at Home

Books:

I read all the time. You'll never catch me without a book in my purse, my bag, whatever. I have a few favorites: The End of Faith; Sophie's World; Atlas Shrugged; Angela's Ashes. But I basically just really enjoy reading, period.

Istanbul just gets better every day.

Okay, I love this city, but I am going to start out on a negative here, then move on. Booze here is EXPENSIVE. Good lord, I have spent so much simply on drinking. Now yes, I know I don't HAVE to drink...
