My self-summary
Not too long ago my mother asked me why I’m not dating anyone. I told her it’s hard to find a smart girl who’s also pretty. My mother quickly replied “you don’t need a girl who is intelligent. She’ll outsmart you”. Which I don’t understand entirely, but agree with completely.

So I listened to my mother and went on a date with a stunning Ecuadorian girl. She filled her dress so well that there simply wasn’t any room left for an IQ, although she wore other letters of the alphabet fantastically. I asked her what she wanted to do with her life. She told me she was thinking of joining the “peace corpse”. I told her to request being sent to the morgue on her application. She asked me if that was in Africa.

That's a true story. Here are some non-sequiturs:

Brooklyn teenagers teach me slang. And then I purposely use it out of context. Don't be tight, it's wavy.

I edit this profile about twice a month, alternating between sober and not. guess which version this is?

On dates I like to go to BargeMusic.

People say I remind them of Seth Rogen- probably because of our shared love of Calle 13. And our penis size(s).

Just kidding. I'm actually saving up for a penile reduction.

I used to be a misanthrope.

I'm also not that worried about the sequester, to be honest. and i am often "rated highly" on the quickmatch thing. swag.

What I’m doing with my life
I teach history in a public high school in downtown brooklyn. I'm getting my PhD in Special Education in the fall- just want to choose the right program, if you have advice, i'd love to hear it! So far it seems as tho I'm probably moving to seattle.

also- I was born in Moscow. My family immigrated to the states in '91 (I was 6) to escape religious and political persecution. I grew up in Madison, WI. Went to school at UW - Philosophy and Poli Sci major. I moved to nyc 5 years ago now, to get my MA in secondary special education at Brooklyn College. I'm killing it with these highlights. I am the dept. chair of special education at my high school.

Shit, this reads like a cover letter.

My favorite section of the sunday times is metropolitan. I enjoy reading about people's Sunday routines- as mine tend to include a lot of pacing.
I’m really good at
Self deprecation.

and I speak, read and write in russian, fluently. I know a bit of hebrew, only enough to get slapped by a pretty girl at a bar.

I'm not that good at self-summaries, but I am good at teaching kids.
The first things people usually notice about me
my charisma. and jewish nose.
Favorite books, movies, shows, music, and food
I've been enjoying sedaris lately. Also George Saunders.

The Unbearable Lightness of Being, JD Salinger, Dostoevsky. I've had a conversation with jonathan safron foer. I'm reading Don Quixote right now.

I like to read is my point I suppose.

I don't like to watch sports that much. But I do enjoy being active. I don't have cable. I like old movies. and The Walking Dead. I cried during Armageddon, when bruce willis takes Ben Afleck's place.

I'm into npr. Like the podcasts. This American life and radio lab are great.

TV Shows: Curb, arrested development, Seinfeld, louie.

Movies: Tarkovsky, Wes Anderson, Sofia Coppola and her dad, il postino

I'm into music as well. many genres- jazz, classical, rap/hiphop. on sundays i like to listen to Shostakovitch. fridays are more of a das racist mood. I also like Kendrick Lamar, Lawrence Arabia and the Casket Girls.
The six things I could never do without
big butt
Full lips
intelligence
Nice style
Sense of humor
That eye make up girls do that looks like a cat a little bit.

Also, why did the rapper bring his umbrella? Because he heard it might be drizzy with a chance of a lil wayne.
I spend a lot of time thinking about
Skiing. I like to ski. I'm pretty okay at it.

And i like Shoshana best on Girls. Sometimes I think about her.
On a typical Friday night I am
At 4th ave pub. My friend owns it. fun bar, nice beer selection. Otherwise I'm getting it turnt up to 2 chains.
The most private thing I’m willing to admit
I've adopted a dog. I guess that's not private. Shit. Did i write this in the wrong box?

Anyway, he's a rescue after the sandy storm. I named him Banga after a dog in one of my favorite bulgakov novels- master and margarita.
