About Me

Hello all! Thanks for actually taking the time to come here and read what is essentially just crap about little old me. I've lived in 'the valley' of the Santa Cruz mountains all my life, but I'm currently attending UC Berkeley where I study some stuff of some sort and then have a job where I also do some things. I really suck at talking about myself so just feel free to ask if you really care to know. green stars myspace layout

My Interests

green things, legos, camping, photography, reading, French things, archeology/ anthropology, traveling, urban exploring, appreciating silence, the space program, star gazing, musicals, randomness, trees, being a nerd, useless trivia about movies and tv, people with accents, Celtic culture, teaching, books....oodles and oodles of books.

I'd like to meet:

Be advised I probably won't just add you as a friend if I have no clue who you are cus I don't really feel the need to have like 500 friends. If you should have a sexy Scottish/Irish accent I may be willing to make an exception =).
