About Me

I'm goofy. I like nerdy things but still think other things are nerdier(i.e. museums= fun, lan parties= not my thing) I have high expectations of people. My birthday is important to me. I sing and dance even if people are watching. I hate myself sometimes. I love myself sometimes too. Waste makes me cringe. I eat too much junk. I like to change my hair color. I want tattoos that most people wouldn't understand. I enjoy acting like a kid. Making a difference to someone is a big deal to me. I have never liked meat. I can be too sensitive. Music is a huge part of my life. Weee!nutshell. me. who cares."Chemists are a strange class of mortals, impelled by an almost maniacal impulse to seek their pleasures amongst smoke and vapour, soot and flames, poisons and poverty, yet amongst all these evils I seem to live so sweetly that I would rather die than change places with the King of Persia."Chemistry can be a good and bad thing. Chemistry is good when you make love with it. Chemistry is bad when you make crack with it

My Interests

Dancing, music, writing, art, outdoors, singing, anything that keeps me entertained. I love to take in other cultures because I feel that it helps me grow as an individual. I love life and I take quite an interest in it. Camping is one of my favorites and I love watching the stars on a clear night. .. fun science stuff- it never gets old for me.

I'd like to meet:

Music:

I like too many kinds of music to list em all out, anything from morcheeba to joe satriani and pharoahe monch. I like a lot of world music and have a lot of indian, latin, celtic and african music. Umm, I also love jazz and funk. Old school and new school as long as its quality music I'm down. A few favorite songs: Sleepwalk, Goodnight My Love, Summertime, I Want To Break Free, No Regrets, Diamonds On The Inside...

Movies:

I like all sorts of movies but I must admit I'm a sucker for some of the older classics like the Monty Python films, E.T., Radio Flyer, The Goonies, Lean On Me, Hook, Spaceballs, and all the Brat Pack stuff. I like Scarface, City Of God, I Am Sam, Ong Bok, The Usual Suspects, Waking Life, Big Fish, and Snatch- you might say my tastes aren't very limited.

Television:

Don't really watch much right now- yay me! However, I love a few shows like Mythbusters and a CSI when I'm perusing through channels, oh yeah, can't forget Queer Eye.

Books:

I doubt anyone cares about all this profile stuff but I love to read. Some great ones are, The Rule of Four, The Color of Water, Do they hear you when you cry, She's not there. I also read a bunch of poetry, some Pablo Neruda and Charles Bukowski. All the books in the Kushiel's series are great. I highly recommend The Boy Who Was Raised a Girl, it will break your heart.

Heroes:

My family, in all their faults and flaws. My real friends. Anyone that is trying to make things better.
