About Me


My Interests

Things I like:
the wonder that is T9, teaching others about the wonder that is T9, having conversations made up entirely of movie quotes and song lyrics, couch-surfing, you-tubing, laptopping, people-watching, puddle-jumping, snowflake-catching, mountain-summitting, bubblewrap-popping, rainbow-chasing, Nintendo-reminiscing, using any and every excuse to break out into song, my car, sleeping in my car, my guitar, my 16 oz coffee with cream, soccer, hiking, dancing, climbing, laughing, overusing commas, going to the ends of the earth to satisfy cravings, forgetting what I'm talking about

Things I don't like:
sharks, clowns, editing my myspace profile, blog bog, people who say "I like all kinds of music except for rap and country"


I'd like to meet:


Anyone who's not a shark or a clown. And Helen Hunt. She's my quarterback princess. Oh...and Claire Danes, cuz she's Claire Danes.

Will get to Madrid if it kills me.

So fuck it. I took the metro elsewhere to get to the bus station and bought a bus ticket to Madrid. It's 7 hours on a bus, which will be a shitty ride in comparison, but it will get me to Madrid three...
