I was born on Long Island, raised mostly Catholic with a dash of Lutheran (although I'm not terribly religious), and I've been in Buffalo for about five years now - I earned a Bachelor's in History and Political Science, now I'm working towards my J.D.

I love watching and discussing movies, and am willing to watch most anything - from Mean Girls to The Proposition, from Up to Mr. Smith Goes to Washington.

I am honest, sometimes to a fault. The only time I lie is to protect someone else and, even then, I prefer telling the truth - it's burned me more than anything else I can think of.

I value education a great deal - nothing's sexier than an intelligent girl that will debate me.

I'm currently entering my second year of Law School at the University at Buffalo. As it stands, I would like to act as an attorney for the government or work in politics in some way. I'm also very interested in education, and there is a great chance that I will end up working as a professor once I earn my Juris Doctor.

While I don't expect to be incredibly wealthy, I have sought to educate myself so that I can provide well-enough for my family, whenever I do settle down.

My greatest skill is conversation. It's sort of cliche, but I do think that I am a great listener, and I enjoy giving advice or being a shoulder for someone I care for. I've always enjoyed sitting down and discussing the news, movies, music, politics, philosophy, and most anything that I have a firm handle on - I have a strong opinion on most everything, and I love discussing other views.

My eyes. They're a nice shade of blue, or so I'm told.

I've also been told that I have a great smile, but I'm sort of absent-minded at times - a daydreamer, I guess.

02. My fleece blanket.
03. My books - I love reading by a window.

06. Caffeine.

Nothing and everything. I'm constantly thinking about something... but there isn't one thing in particular that always holds my attention. Though, recently I've been thinking about existentialism a great deal, as I've been reading a great deal of Camus.

Spending time with my friends - I'll hang out in my apartment, watching DVDs (TV shows or movies, it doesn't matter) and shooting the breeze or go to the movies.

You're up for an intelligent conversation, coffee, and movies.
