The Friend You Forgot About

I am here for Dating, Friends and Networking

About Me

My life's in transition... so this will be as well.I've recently ended a 3 year relationship.

My Interests

Independent films
The Angelika Film Center
Landmark Theatres
Music
Weird/morbid/fucked up books
Meeting new people
Hanging out with friends
Passing time online
Driving around
Reading people's journals...

I'd like to meet:

I'm always up for making new friends. The only requirement you have to meet to be my friend is that I like you atleast most of the time.
I need movie friends badly. It can get lonely constantly going to the movies by myself. My bf and most of my friends aren't really into movies much at all. Very often, I go to the Angelika, River Oaks, and Greenway by myself. If you like going to those theatres, let me know... some company could be nice.^ I'll change that poor me stuff later.

Music:

I like indie/emo/ska/punk/rock/alternative type of stuff. I do like most types of music but I get very selective with rap and country.

Soundtrack for my life

Usually I get really sucky results on these.  I actually love this one.  I so would use this if I were making a movie of my life.  There were a few "uh?" ones but most fit in pretty per...

<3 Forbidden Broadway

I find basically all of these songs to be fucking hilarious... but I don't think most of my friends would get it. "Stop Cats!" is taking "I Hope I Get It" and "One" from A Chorus Line and making it a...
