I am here for Friends

About Me

I just moved back to Brooklyn a year ago and I love my neighborhood, my apartment, and my roommates. Some people underestimate the awesomeness of Brooklyn, but any of you naysayer’s come talk to me. Especially some of those stupid cab drivers that try to tell you things like...my front windshield isn't on secure enough and will fly off if I drive over the bridge!!! Crazy people. What do I like? I love coffee in the morning. I love being stuck inside during a good rainstorm. Even better (much easier to do this when you live in the middle of nowhere) I love to go run out in the rain during a big thunderstorm. I love people that can make me laugh. Genuine, positive, down to earth people are my kind of people. I love to get out of the city for a week and go backpacking (something I wish I could do more often!) I have a big family that is pretty cool. They are spread out across the U.S. so I travel to see them as much as possible, family is very important to me. Anything beyond this you will have to talk to me to find out;)Myspace Backgrounds

I'd like to meet:

Anyone who will make me look at things differently than what I already know. Also, if anyone has invented a way to teleport...let me know. Airline tickets are getting way too expensive and all my friends and family need to stop spreading out so much!

Music:

There are so many.......I loooove music. To name a few.....Joni Mitchel, Carole King, Indigo Girls, Dixie Chicks, Patty Griffen, Israel Kamakawiwo'ole (well his Somewhere Over The Rainbow rendition is great,) Ben Folds, Bonnie Somerville, Ray Charles, Iron and Wine, Ben Harper, Chocolate Genius, David Wilcox, Idina Menzel, Kevin Taylor:), Marcoux Corner, John Mayor, Maroon 5, Johnny Cash, Martin Sexton, Sting, Natalie Merchant, Norah Jones, Rufus Wainwright, Tracy Chapman, Simon and Garfunkel....hmmmm, I'm sure there's more.

Movies:

The most recent movie I saw that I loved was Walk the Line, awesome movie. Nobody Knows, Wedding Crashers, Meet the Parents, Waiting for Guffman, Anchorman, Royal Tenenbaums, (really any movie with the Olsen Brothers, Will Farrell, or Ben Stiller in it) Newsies, Pride and Prejudice (the BBC version) The Incredibles, Life as a House, Legally Blonde, Man on the Moon, Saved, Amelie, Sound of Music, The Excorism of Emily Rose, Almost Famous, Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, The Notebook, old movies, Breakfast at Tiffany's, Anne of Green Gables, Anne of Avonlea.....I'm getting tired of this so thats it.

Television:

That 70's Show, Gilmore Girls, Family Guy, Sex in the City, Will and Grace, those reality tv shows are a guilty pleasure of mine, like project runway, american idol, and america's next top model.

Books:

The Kite Runner, Memoirs of a Geisha, Life of Pi, Harry Potter (all of them), Into The Wild, Chronicles of Narnia (and the rest of the series), The Bluest Eyes, ......I don't know. I really enjoy reading so I've read a lot of books. I always would love getting suggestions on new, good books though!

Save yourself!!!

Do not, I repeat, do NOT go and see "The Hills Have Eyes."  Most disturbing movie I have ever watched.  Not scary, disturbing.  Not at all enjoyable, just mentioning the movie makes me ...
