skeptical, bitchy, and focused
My self-summary Propose an edit
I'm a student/writer/minimum wage drudge. I'm a little wary of
confident people; they make me wonder what they're refusing to
think about. I love cats, though my cat in particular is kind of a
bully. I wish I could just eat naan and grapefruit and wander
around the house wrapped up in a blanket for the rest of my life.
Or at least for a week or two :-)
What I'm doing with my life Propose an edit
going to class most of the time, running, writing and talking about
writing and reading other people's writing, looking forward to
starting that teaching assistantship next fall so I can quit my
ridiculous job, thinking/reading about feminism and gay rights, and
trying to learn american sign language.
I'm really good at Propose an edit
-acting calm and giving advice. -self-motivating (usually) but also
-doing things I know I shouldn't and enjoying the hell out of it.
-being open-minded. -literary critique/ creative writing (lucrative
skills :-)
The first thing(s) people usually notice about me Propose an edit
I'm tall! And I have red hair. I'd say those are probably the most
obvious things. Later on, people notice that I have a good sense of
humor and I'm a little shy.
My favorite books, movies, music, and food Propose an edit
I love thai food, old movies, foreign films, off-beat indie films,
contemporary poetry, anything wierd, anything new, joanna newsom,
tegan and sara, deathcab for cutie, modest mouse, the beatles,
leonard cohen, rufus wainwright, Todd snyder, eric leick, Mark
bilyeu, david bowie. I like tv shows to be intelligent and
character-driven, because I think they have the opportunity to
really explore the psyche. that said, I'm in love with the Law and
Order franchise, and I have no idea why.
The six things I could never do without Propose an edit
That's silly. Food, water, air.
The fascinating thing about humans is that they can adapt to
anything.
I spend a lot of time thinking about Propose an edit
gender identity, pop culture, politics, contemporary american
poetry, some girl or other (most likely one who's not interested in
me), what degree to get next, what tattoo to get next, hair.
On a typical Friday night I am Propose an edit
Out with friends, driving around, writing, or watching a law and
order CI marathon.
The most private thing I'm willing to admit here Propose an edit
I don't cook. If I could have only water and beer in my fridge, I'd
be happy.
