I am observant, passionate, and reserved.
My Self-Summary
I'm a pretty average person with goals and expectations like
everyone else. I love reading but there's certain books that really
annoy me just by their existence; mainly books that attempt to
qualify as literature and in fact are merely trash (i.e. books
written solely for the purpose of making money rather than to be
creative and inspire thought shallow or otherwise; I understand
everyone wants to make a buck but there have to be some
limits).
Additionally, I try not to make snap judgements but I really don't
like it when people take out their frustration or anger on the
people around them. Especially since most of the time getting angry
doesn't really solve any problems, it just exacerbates what's
probably unimportant when viewed from a greater standpoint.
I also think horror movies are boring; mainly because it's hard for
me to get into the plot and find it believable.
What I’m doing with my life
Right now I'm working on my undergrad as a history major but I
really want to go to law school afterwards. I'm also excited about
studying abroad next year in Japan!
I'm also working in retail for the summer before I leave for Japan
and I'm really beginning to despise about 78-85% of the people who
walk through the door. People seriously need to think more about
how they treat others; it shows a strong lack of character to abuse
and berate people who are obligated to help you.
I’m really good at
I'm really good at seeing things objectively but I'm not just a
fence-sitter. I'll take a position on important issues but I won't
make a decision just so I have an answer, I'd rather find out all
the arguments before committing myself.
Also I love to dance and I'm fairly decent when I get a chance to,
which sadly isn't that often.
The first things people usually notice about me
I don't really know what people first notice about me...possibly my
slight lack of overt expressions? I tend to not show much of what
I'm thinking on my face, though I've gotten better at doing so. (It
rather tends to alienate people when my face is neutral)

The six things I could never do without
Conversation, my laptop, a good internet connection, books, my
pets, and my ipod.
I spend a lot of time thinking about
I think about everything. What I want out of life, how I want to
achieve my goals, what I'll be doing in the next few years. I think
about my friends the most though.
On a typical Friday night I am
Hanging out with my friends, studying, or sleeping.
The most private thing I’m willing to admit here
I think I might be stupider than people think and I'm terrified of
being a dissapointment to my friends and family. Though I guess
it's mainly a matter of looking at myself and having difficulty
seeing what I must present to the world at large.
You should message me if
You're random and fun but not a psychopath.
P.S. My home is in Texas and I usually attend university in New
Orleans, LA but right now I'm studying for a year in Tokyo, so I'm
sort of all over the place....basically that means, right now I'm
in Japan!
