About Me



The name's Alex . After 19 years of slightly vapid existence, I've found myself an incredibly busy sophomore at St. Michael's College in Colchester, Vermont. I spend some of my time reading, writing, and speaking the three foreign languages I currently study; it's interesting, but by no means would I call it leisurely. No, leisure lives each time I whip up a drink (there have been far too many varieties of the 'Barron' than are possible to recall) for one of my close friends; happiness can be found sitting around a table with my favorite people in the world, joking about yesterday's (tonight's?) mischief.

Books:

Chuck Pahlaniuk writes novels that consistently make me yearn to gouge my eyes out with my own fingers in a vaguely Oedipal manner... but I can't stop reading them. Aeneid is one of the most inspired texts I've ever had the pleasure of perusing, in Latin OR English.
