"My friends are my estate." - Emily Dickinson

I LOVE COLLEGE FOOTBALL!!... ROLL MF TIDE!!!
I absolutely love music and movies, so alot of my "friends" on here are music related so I can pick up some new favs or stay in the know with old favs. I'm not really on this for dating, but mainly here to keep in touch/get in touch with old friends, or maybe meet some new friends to chat with. Don't take it personal! ;)
AND on that note, unless I have messaged you, or already know you, PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE don't send me a friend request w/out ATLEAST chatting with me first, a nice "hey, how ya doin," ya know?...again, nothing personal.

BROWN PENNY ~ William Butler Yates
I WHISPERED, 'I am too young,'
And then, 'I am old enough';
Wherefore I threw a penny
To find out if I might love.
'Go and love, go and love, young man,
If the lady be young and fair.'
Ah, penny, brown penny, brown penny,
I am looped in the loops of her hair.
O love is the crooked thing,
There is nobody wise enough
To find out all that is in it,
For he would be thinking of love
Till the stars had run away
And the shadows eaten the moon.
Ah, penny, brown penny, brown penny,
One cannot begin it too soon.

I love all types of music (mostly classic rock, alternative & rock, R&B, oldies, adult alternative, only a tiny bit of rap & country, and even classical) so this part is my more MAINstream ones, but All time favs: Crystal Method, The Chemical Brothers, Dave Matthews Band, U2, Tori Amos, Indigo Girls, R.E.M., Coldplay, Pearl Jam, The Doors, The Cure, Depeche Mode, A Perfect Circle, Bill Withers, Nina Simone, Smashing Pumpkins, Coutning Crows, Collective Soul, ETC, ETC, ETC ....((so says the owner of 500+ CDS!!))

Movies:

Too many to get into, but generally I'm a big fan of movies that are thought provoking in a manner of drawing you in and/or have a complex story line (damn, don't I sound smartz)..and then sometimes I just like them b/c the actors are hot or of anything dark and creepy.
My pics: 3:10 to Yuma, Shopgirl, Fight Club, Contact, American Beauty, Tombstone, 12 Monkeys, Seven, Matrix, old school star wars, Legends of the Fall, Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, Hope Floats, Layer Cake, the Doors, Dogma, Breathless, Swingers, Point of No Return, Unforgiven, Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade, Goonies (come on, its a classic!), and many more
My 2 Cents on: The Lives of OthersA fantastic film. It covers a part of German history that hasn't had alot of attention in the world market, the late 70s's & early 80s of Soviet Germany. It is very moving in that it plays the politcal in the midst of relationships and duty, in a very Ayn Rand type of story. It beautifully portrays human need for fulfillment and the balancing act of life to meet one's needs.
The Movie Of Your Life Is An Indie Flick
You do things your own way - and it's made for colorful times.
Your life hasn't turned out how anyone expected, thank goodness!
Your best movie matches: Clerks, Garden State, Napoleon Dynamite If Your Life Was a Movie, What Genre Would It Be?
Your Love Life is Like Titanic
"Promise me you'll survive. That you won't give up, no matter what happens, no matter how hopeless."
You think that you only really have one true love in your life. And that you better do anything and everything to be with that person.
You tend to be very nostalgic about past loves that didn't work out. There are many secret feelings that you keep to yourself.
Your love style: Deep and emotional
Your Hollywood Ending Will Be: Bittersweet What Movie Is Your Love Life Like?

Television:

I AM IN LOVE WITH GREY'S ANATOMY!! I've never really gotten so into a show as much as I have with Grey's. YAAAAY!! IT'S BACK!!!
I seriously loooove my DVR since I'm never really home to get to watch TV much. Currently hooked on the Office, Desparate Housewives, CSI & Greys. PUSHING DAISIES AND DIRTY SEXY MONEY ARE THE BEST NEW SHOWS!
Outside of those, I really like the History Channel, Blind Date, Comedy Central always seems to have something good on, Whose Line is it, The First 48, Most Haunted on the Travel Channel, and X-files.
When it comes to reality shows, I like the Amazing Race, but all the other shows could be flushed down the toilet for all I could care, especially the Bachelor..GAG.

Books:

Favorites: Brave New World, Romeo & Juliet, I am Legend

Currently reading A Course in Miracles, Obsidian Butterfly, Kaplan GMAT Premiere Study Guide (A very interesting plot line and compelling readin...zzzzzzz)

FUN STUFF:
You Are Kermit
Hi, ho! Lovable and friendly, you get along well with everyone you know.
You're a big thinker, and sometimes you over think life's problems.
Don't worry - everyone know's it's not easy being green.
