About Me

I graduated college in 2004, which is sounding further and further away.I grew up overseas, then I studied physics and psychology in college and I currently work at a neuroscience lab (someday I will get my PhD in Neuroscience). I love dogs. I believe that it is not really possible to write a satisfying "about me" section. Maybe that says something about me.

We waste time looking for the perfect lover, instead of creating the perfect love. Tom Robbins.. Read my VisualDNA ™ Get your own VisualDNA™

My Interests

I'd like to meet:



Happiness is having a large, loving, caring, close-knit family in another city. George Burns I am a kind of paranoiac in reverse. I suspect people of plotting to make me happy. J. D. Salinger Those who dream by day are cognizant of many things which escape those who dream only by night. Edgar Allan Poe They always say time changes things, but you actually have to change them yourself. Andy Warhol There is nothing like returning to a place that remains unchanged to find the ways in which you yourself have altered. Nelson Mandela Always acknowledge a fault. This will throw those in authority off their guard and give you an opportunity to commit more. Mark Twain Selfishness is not living as one wishes to live, it is asking others to live as one wishes to live. Oscar Wilde Man must evolve for all human conflict a method which rejects revenge, aggression and retaliation. The foundation of such a method is love. Martin Luther King Jr. At least two-thirds of our miseries spring from human stupidity, human malice and those great motivators and justifiers of malice and stupidity: idealism, dogmatism and proselytizing zeal on behalf of religous or political ideas. Aldous Huxley God is always on the side of the big battalions. Voltaire An intellectual is a person who has discovered something more interesting than sex. Aldous Huxley Reality is a crutch for people who can't cope with drugs. Lily Tomlin



Moral indignation is jealousy with a halo. H. G. Wells You can't wait for inspiration. You have to go after it with a club. Jack London The weak can never forgive. Forgiveness is the attribute of the strong. Mahatma Gandhi The cure for boredom is curiosity. There is no cure for curiosity. Dorothy Parker I hate to advocate drugs, alcohol, violence, or insanity to anyone, but they've always worked for me. Hunter S. Thompson Maturity is a bitter disappointment for which no remedy exists, unless laughter can be said to remedy anything. Kurt Vonnegut

outsiders

What's up with these people who are "not into" myspace or are "against" facebook?  Not that everyone has to like the same things, but there are definitely people who think that online "social net...

ode to rob keller

OR why would you be friends with a dirty conservative? Sure, he can be opinionated, extreme, cold, unemotional, and maybe even a jackass.  Sure, he can be greedy, selfish, and thinks he's always ...

the myspace generation

Here's an article I found called "The Myspace Generation" (tagline:  "They live online. They buy online. They play online. Their power is growing.").  It's about...  us, I guess.  ...
