About Me

------------------------------------------------------------ ----some handy labels for right now: graduate student. A cappella geek. Future professor of anthropology. ...if you can be in love with somebody, can you be 'in hate' with somebody too? If so, I'm in hate with Frederick Engels.----------------------------------------------------- ------------smells like: man
fights like: little girl
a haiku?

..somebody tell me if I'm spamming you with Macy's adds in the comments section. All my friends seem to be spamming me, and I'm sure they don't know about it, so just let me know.

My Interests

gerunds: singing, frisbee...ing, running, coaching, drawring, travel, languages, live music

I'd like to meet:


Everbody deserves at least a hello.I think everybody should be encouraged to make music. However, unless I friended you, I'm probably not interested in your shitty Myspace band.

Music:

mostly stuff I can wail along to shamelessly: Sting, Radiohead, Glen Phillips, Ani Difranco, the Beatles, the Eagles, Paul Simon, Lyrics Born, Tom Waits, Lauryn Hill, Zap Mama, They Might be Giants

Movies:

Mystery Science Theatre 3000, Spirited Away, Carlito's Way, Labyrinth, the Shawshank Redemption, 28 Days Later, Trainspotting, everything by Pixar, Amelie, Wallace and Grommit, the (old) Star Wars Trilogy, Garden State, Howl's Moving Castle (...really, any Miyazaki)

Television:

the Daily Show. Television is basically shite.

Books:

From Beruit to Jerusalem, In Patagonia, Love in the Time of Cholera, Atonement, A Heartbreaking Work of Staggering Genius, Ender's Game, Franny and Zooey, Wind Sand and Stars, the Lord of the Rings trilogy (but waaaay before the movies), the Seven Pillars of Wisdom
