About Me

I'm a law student. If I do go out I by far-and-away prefer the shithole to the classy bar, which is probably a function of both my cheapness and my dislike for wearing nice clothes. I occassionally drink too much, I definitely eat too fast, and I am all too frequently insensitive. I feel awkward meeting people for the sake of meeting people, and I try not speak unless I have something to say... but that usually changes after a few drinks.

My Interests

I really like games, and I probably waste too much time with them: poker, chess, backgammon, pool. Food: Sushi, Indian, Chinese, and a good steak. I like cooking, reading non-law material, being anti-social, the beach, movies, scuba diving, etc. Recently I have found Internet forums really really entertaining. I can't stop laughing at the stuff I find on there:

I'd like to meet:

Music:

It is too hard to find good music anymore so I have just stopped and rely on other people to fill me in. I am also trying to get into IP law so I now pay for music to be a proper steward of the legal system.

Movies:

I love watching bad, cheesy movies: Independence Day, Alien 4, Armageddon, ect. I obviously like good movies: Pulp Fiction, Sneakers (I think only CS ppl can appreciate this one), Shawshank Redemption, Schindler's List, Oldboy... The only kind of movies I hate watching are those mediocre type movies.

Television:

Simpsons, Daily Show, Deadwood, and, of course, Aqua Teen Hunger Force.

Books:

Haven't read a proper book since law school, so I can't remember what is any good.

Heroes:

Whoever made Wikipedia.
