people that are intelligent and kind. people that appreciate simplicity. people of color. people that identify as queer, lesbian, gay, trans, questioning, straight, bi, etc. people that i can connect with on several different enlightening levels. people that can keep my ADD from kicking in (due to boredom). people that are outgoing and spontaneous. people that enjoy music as much as i do and be able to share new bands with. people that appreciate great conversations over tasty cocktails. people that i can sit in silence with without feeling uncomfortable. people that like to party, but also know when it's time be serious. people that can understand that when school starts, i disappear. people that have really good energy and can keep me on my toes. people that embrace their imperfections. people that can come in and out of my life, not because they're inconsistent, but because they have their own life. people that can give monster hugs that make me feel fuzzy inside. people that enjoy kids because i bring my nephews everywhere. people that won't mind that i'll always be a little late to social gatherings (it's called fashionably late). finally, people that have really good heads on their shoulders because i just don't get along with people that have their heads up their asses. oh, and also Kele Okereke, Matt Tong, Russell Lissack, and Gordon Moakes of Bloc Party (in that order please). now, that's not too much to ask for, is it?
