About Me

I tend to learn new things about myself everyday so I confess that I don't know everything and that I'm still growing up. However, I remain mostly constant in person and at this moment in time I can say I am a person who tends to care a little too much, always wants to laugh a little more, and has a fierce love for all those in my life. My pirate name is: Red Morgan Rackham Passion is a big part of your life, which makes sense for a pirate. You have the good fortune of having a good name, since Rackham (pronounced RACKem, not rack-ham) is one of the coolest sounding surnames for a pirate. Arr!

My Interests

Stealing road cones (haha Bryan and Pam). Art of all kinds. I also sew in the sense that I love to make costumes for shows. Ballet is my first love and will always be in dance. I have no idea how I came to dance hip hop but it rocks. I'm not gansta enough to dance in the front though. I have always liked the outdoors and I have tried everything from rock-climbing, caving, canoeing, kayaking, mountian and road biking, scuba, whitewater activities, downhill and cross country skiing, backpacking.

I'd like to meet:

Friends, intelligent people, and Frank Sinatra.

Music:

Absolutely everything, classic rock holds a special place in the heart though. Anything you can have crazy fun dancing to.

Movies:

There are too many movies to mention, I can't even name a specific genre of movie... My all time favorite movie though is probably The Princess Bride. I know every line in that movie backwards and forwards because I have watched it at least a thousand times since I was four.

Television:

School has ruined my TV life. But I love Charmed, Sex and the City, Family Guy, Futurama, cartoons of many kinds.

Books:

I really liked the book The Things They Carried by Tim O'Brien, it's about his experiences in Vietnam. Overall I have an ecelectic taste, fantasy is always fun. My favorite peom is:"Being But Men" by Dylan Thomas 1932Being but men, we walked into the trees/ Afraid, letting our syllables be soft/ For fear of waking the rooks,/ For fear of coming/ Noiselessly into a world of wings and cries./If we were children we might climb,/ Catch the rooks sleeping, and break no twig,/ And, afert the soft ascent,/ Thrust out our heads above the branches/ To wonder at the unfailing stars./Out of confusion, as the way is,/ And the wonder, that man knows,/ Out of the chaos would come bliss./That, then, is loveliness, we said,/ Children in wonder watching the stars,/ Is the aim and the end./Being but men, we walked into the trees.

Heroes:

I admire the ancient Greek heroes... one of my favorite areas of reading are Greek myths. Favorite myth is the story of Cupid and Psyche. I admire my family.

Stealing Road Cones

So going to college has apparently caused the clyptomaniac in me to surface.  I don't even know if that's how it's spelled but stealing random stuff is really fun. It all started with the road tr...
