About Me


Echoes from my mind. Echoes from my heart. Take them how you may, or leave them as you will.

My Interests

Long-distance running, rhythm guitar like that in Otchim (Stepfather) by Faktor-2 - song / video / rest of viedo , hiking, creative writing, dancing, drinking, etc.

I'd like to meet:


Andréas's Friend Space

Music:

I like a lot of music, but my favorite is '80s new wave synth-pop.

Movies:

Movies that make me think like Butterfly Effect, Memento, Minority Report, Blade Runner, Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, Gattaca, Seven. Movies with characters I admire. Movies with characters that are hard to play yet are played well in the movie. Movies with good twists like Crying Game, M Butterfly, Shawshank Redemption. Funny movies like Drop Dead Gorgeous. Movies that can keep my attention the whole way through. A lot of '80s movies, as well, such as Breakfast Club, Teen Witch, Earth Girls are Easy, etc.

Television:

Sometimes I can find something good to watch, but I usually don't have the time.

One clip that does stick in my mind, though, is the cartoon where Donald Duck goes to open this window and totally flips his lid. Man, good thing he never had to deal with Microsoft Windows, lol!

Books:

Recently finished reading Both Sides Now: One Man's Journey through Womanhood by Dhillon Khosla , Undoing Gender by Judith Butler , Becoming a Visible Man signed by author Jamison Green , and Transgender Care: Recommended Guidelines, Practical Information & Personal Accounts by Gianna E. Israel and Donald E. Tarver II.

Caterpillar

My grandmother pointed out the caterpillar on my upper lip when I went to see her today.  Told me to let her know once I start shaving.  :)

Hey, ma!

Well, my mother called tonight 'cause she hadn't heard from me in a while.  I just haven't really had any news lately, you know.  She mentioned that my voice sounded maybe an octave dee...

To Man or Not To Man

So I saw one of my aunts yesterday and she asked me to "man" a table at her daughter's wedding early this fall.  I just think that's a funny phrase: to man.

Self-injecting

Went back to the doctor's today.  Gave myself the injection infront of them so now I get to do it at home from now on.

Free at last!

The doctor performed my hysterectomy/ooperectomy yesterday.  I was a little low on K before the operation so they gave me some via my IV drip so my heart wouldn't skip.  By lunch, I was able...

What's up, doc'?

Wow!  I feel like a million bucks!  I just had my consultation with the hysterectomy/ooperectomy doctor, and she was so cool.  We even set a date for my surgery.  I just feel great...

Knock Knock

So I was just chillin' in my room, topless, minding my own business, when there's a knock at my door.  I figured, "Oh, it's probably just my roommate, Corey.  I'll just open the door, no big...
