About Me

i'm completely in love with amsterdam.I don't like talking on the phone.I see swans every morning on my ride to work.My favorite time is 12:34. And when I see that it's 12:34, sometimes I'm such a big dork that I'll look at every clock around me so I can see it say 12:34. And I get miffed if I see the clock at 12:35 without having seen it at 12:34. especially if I saw it at 12:33.

My Interests

my newest obsession ishedgehogs .i think they will replace my previous fascination with frogs. so, if you see something froggy that you think i would like, hold off, and see if there is a hedgehog version. it may be more challenging, but challenges are good for you. i enjoy photography , cognitive science /psychology, nonverbal communication, intelligence, memory, the unknown, balance, the future, truth, the senses, i like smelling things, things that smell good, twilight, good light, color, stripes, art, design, beauty, human behavior, animal behavior, ostriches are interesting, caves, aerial perspectives, the choices people make, walking around and looking into people's houses, music, movies, travel, good food, new things, shoes, and playing cards, especially any version of gin.

I'd like to meet:

mmbeaversnduckssmart people.I also want to meet more hedgehogsand someone who has forgotten how to ride a bicycleand other people on a quest for something as exciting as the perfect chair. hedgehog hedgehog

Music:

lately i've been listening to a lot of hot chip and jose gonzalez.i enjoy almost everything produced by these people below:Emily Hainesor Erlend Oyeor Sufjan Stevens.

Movies:

i like moviesthe 3 DVDs in my refrigerator are:ameliefifth elementrequiem for a dream

Television:

i love the US version of the office. so funny. and there's this dutch cooking show on in the mornings that i like to watch. i can practice dutch and get good cooking ideas.

Books:

"On Food and Cooking - The Science and Lore of the Kitchen"; I think it will change the way I cook forever. But besides that......I recently read Life of Pi, and i recommend it to everyone. i also just got a membership at the amazing library here and have borrowed several interesting books so far. some in dutch, a couple on photography, a novel by nick hornsby, a cookbook, and some amsterdam architecture. i'm a happy girl.

Heroes:

those who inspire
