Back to reality...

About Me

I'm preparing to transition to the life of a grad student. 3 years, 2 degrees... I have my work cut out for me. At this point, though, I'm really looking forward to it.

My Interests

Music, travel, movies, snowboarding... and I'm trying to start reading again, something other than stuff for work.

I'd like to meet:

Cool, open-minded people. I like to have fun but also like a good intelligent conversation.

Music:

I'm all over the map. But if I have to put something down, I'd say: classic R&B, soul, hip hop, and a mix of other things. Artists I'm partial to include: Sade, Bjork, Outkast, Radiohead, The Streets, Erykah Badu, Les Nubians, Common, Kanye West, Esthero, Fiona Apple, Res, and others.

Movies:

Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, Dead Presidents, Bridget Jones's Diary, Amelie, Coming to America, Ocean's 11, The English Patient, WALL-E, several Disney animated films.

Television:

Curb Your Enthusiasm, Entourage, Big Love, Flight of the Conchords, How Clean is Your House, Gordon Ramsey's Kitchen Nightmares (BBC version), Heroes, The Daily Show, The Colbert Report, and BBC World News (better than CNN or local garbage)

Books:

The Catcher in the Rye, Beloved, the Harry Potter series, Norwegian Wood, The Amazing Adventures of Kavalier and Clay, The Remains of the Day, Roll of Thunder Hear My Cry

Heroes:

Not sure. Let me get back to you.
