guess I better move on now and find my own way

About Me

"Separate the ones who know you from the ones who couldn't bother to see you for all that you are" That's a nice little quote from a Tilly and the Wall song I enjoy. I think that's a good motto to live by.

My Interests

listening to This American Life on NPR, traveling, learning to play soccer, soccer boys such as Fernando Torres, Spanish, boys who speak foreign languages, Gael García Bernal, God, dancing, ice cream, my lovely IC ladies, 40 or 50 cent sodas at The Den, going to the beach, Iowa Hawkeye football, The Java House, indie music, taking pictures, meeting new people, volunteering

I'd like to meet:

People who like me for me. Sounds simple. Hope it works.

Music:

Tilly and the Wall, John Mayer, The Strokes, The Shins, Rilo Kiley, Iron and Wine, Damien Rice, Sigur Ros, Jack Johnson, Coldplay, Regina Spektor, The Dixie Chicks, Belle and Sebastian, Death Cab for Cutie, The Postal Service, Fiona Apple, Imogen Heap, Lily Allen, Modest Mouse... I do like country too. Yes I said it, country. I'm quite an eclectic person in that sense. So that list would include Keith Urban, Rascall Flatts, Alison Krauss, Nickel Creek and random others I won't subject you to.

Movies:

City of God, Napoleon Dynamite, Moulin Rouge, Fight Club, Y Tu Mama Tambien, A Walk To Remember, The Royal Tenenbaums, When Harry Met Sally, You've Got Mail, 21 Grams, Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, Finding Nemo, Princess Bride, Sandlot, Dirty Dancing, Donnie Darko, Garden State, Shakespeare in Love, Lord of the Rings Trilogy, Wet Hot American Summer

Sex and the City from season one to the end. I love those ladies. Seinfeld, Arrested Development, Curb Your Enthusiasm, Survivor, Lost, Project Runway, Gilmore Girls, The Hills, Grey's Anatomy

Books:

Harry Potter :) Anything by David Sedaris

Heroes:

Friends that are loyal and always stick to their word. I want to be a person that others look up to some day or at least remember fondly. These people inspire me and that is enough of a hero for me.

Cocktail parties...you should try them.

 Once I understand how to post pictures in my blogs I am going to utilize that all the time. I think pure picture blogs are the best. Pictures will speak for themselves. Yeah, it's probably a pie...

Caro Babbo Natale

I felt this should be included in the 'writing and poetry' category since 1) it is a letter I wrote and 2) poetry is automatically included so there's no way around it. Who knows though? Santa Claus, ...

all songs considered

You should definitely check out this program on npr.org. So far, I've listened to Sigur Ros, The Shins, and Tilly and the Wall in concert and there are so many more...but that is just the half of it. ...
