About Me

"You know Marcel Proust?
Yeah. French writer. Total loser. Never had a real job. Unrequited love affairs. Gay. Spent 20 years writing a book almost no one reads. But he's also probably the greatest writer since Shakespeare. Anyway, he uh... he gets down to the end of his life, and he looks back and decides that all those years he suffered, those were the best years of his life, 'cause they made him who he was. All those years he was happy? You know, total waste. Didn't learn a thing. So, if you sleep until you're 18... Ah, think of the suffering you're gonna miss. I mean high school? High school-those are your prime suffering years. You don't get better suffering than that." ~Little Miss Sunshine~
"The spring track season depresses cross-country runners, because we can only officially compete in the two-mile runs. We like to go the distance. Cross-country was made for me. I'm small and wiry and tenacious as hell. Any fool can run fast on an expensive track with lane markers, starting blocks, and a tailwind. Show me a girl who can slog it out against driving sleet, wearing mud-caked shoes and a wool cap that drips down the back of her neck--now that's a runner." Catalyst by Laurie Halse Anderson

My Interests

I like to explore and discover new things so I'm pretty much interested in everything.

I'd like to meet:

Music:

The Academy Is...
"Everything We Had"
You were the only face I'd ever known
I was the light from the lamp on the floor
And only as bright as you wanted me to be

But I am no gentleman, I can be a prick
And I do regret more than I admit
You have been followed back to same place I
Sat with you drink for drink
Take the pain out of love and then love won't exist

Everything we had, everything we had
Everything we had, everything we had
Is no longer there

It was the only place I'd ever known
Turned off the light on my way out the door
I'll be watching wherever you go
Through the eyes of a fly on the wall

You have been followed back to the same place I
Sat with you drink for drink
Take the pain out of love and then love won't exist

Everything we had, everything we had
Everything we had, everything we had
Is no longer there, is no longer there

Well, you saw for yourself, the way it played out
For you, I am blinded
For you, I am blinded
For you

But I am no gentleman, I can be a prick
And I do regret more than I admit
You have been followed back to same place I
Sat with you drink for drink
Take the pain out of love and then love won't exist

Everything we had, everything we had
Everything we had, everything we had
Everything we had, everything we had
Everything we had

I'll be with you wherever you go
Through the eyes of a fly on the wall.

Books:

My favorite quote. It's from Chapter 84 in An Egg on Three Sticks:
"I am far from being sixteen but I feel more like forty.
I know things no fifteen year old should know.
Things like, a faded red bathrobe can hide a lot.
Things like, even if all you do is lie on your bed, counting ceiling holes, things around you will keep moving, stuff will happen. Even if you do nothing, your life will change.
Things like, you can't save someone who doesn't want to be saved.
This is what I know at fifteen and it makes me really wonder about forty.
Because I mean what else is there to know."
