I am clever, preppy, and humorous.
My Self-Summary
I am 25. I've never had a real relationship with anyone and want to
find some as interested in me as I am in them. I have the hardest
time meeting people. I have a lot of friends, many of which are
guys (straight guys unfortunately for me). So I am hoping to meet
some cool people. I spend what I think is a lot of time
working out and
running. It
actually turns out to be like 3.5 hours a week. I'm excited about
being able to run for 24 minutes straight on a treadmill without
stopping. For a fat kid that used to "run" a 14 minute mile, that's
a big milestone. I like listening to my iPod and making iTunes
playlists - they're the new mix tape.
What I’m doing with my life
Currently, I am embarking on a journey I never thought I would want
to take: I am starting graduate school in the fall of 2008. I
always thought that advanced degrees were for nerdy people . . .
well, people nerdier than me anyway. Yet, I see to make money in my
desired field (and to have some sort of job security in the
future), I need to improve myself.
I just left a job with Clear Channel Radio in Oklahoma City as a
promotions assistant. It was an OK job, but it was very stressful
(and didn't really line my coffers either). I am much happier at my
job as a writing center assistant at a local college.
Other than that, I really am just trying to get through this phase
in my life waiting for the next one to begin. Not that there's
anything necessarily in store in the next stage of my life, that's
just kind of all you can do in Oklahoma: sit around until you die.
I’m really good at
The first things people usually notice about me
I'd like to think that my eyes, smile and butt are the things that
draw the hotties in, but people are probably more likely to notice
my shirt fitting too tightly, my pants fitting to loosely, and then
questioning whether I am a ginger or not.
My favorite books, movies, music, and food
My favorite books are:
All Quiet on the
Western Front;
Nickel and Dimed;
Animal Farm;
To Kill a
Mockingbird;
Wizard of Oz;
The Great Gatsby;
How to
Profit from the Coming Rapture.
Since I come from a pretty conservative family, most good movies
were banned until I was 17. So, I haven't seen many of the great
movies a lot of you have. I have to say, my favorite movies are:
Seven;
Meet the Parents;
Meet the
Fockers;
Corky Ramano;
Kung Pow; Anchorman;
Tommy Boy; All
movies with
Elvira Mistress of the
Dark;
Family Guy
Stewie:The Untold Story;
There Will Be Blood;
Independence
Day;
Jurassic Park;
Drop Dead Gorgeous;
Bring It On;
Ghostbusters I and II;
Ace Ventura;
Ace Ventura: When
Nature Calls;
Austin Powers. This is hardly a
list you'd expect to find for someone going to graduate school, but
I like stupid movies, what can I say?
My favorite music is:
Green Day;
John Mayer;
Kanye West; Anchorman soundtrack;
TV
themesongs;
Puddle of Mudd;
Ashton Sheppard;
Josh Gracin;
Taylor Swift;
Matchbox 20;
Cardinal
Trait;
Linkin
Park;
Mutemath;
Muse;
Rihanna;
Chris Brown;
Michael Jackson;
Dixie Chicks;
Madonna;
Little Big Town;
Lady
Antebellum;
Broadway musicals;
Finally, I enjoy the idea of cooking but can't actually cook
anything (other than like canned soup and frozen stuff). I love
meals prepared from scratch because I don't get them that often. I
have a weakness for pizza and macaroni and cheese (not together). I
have a sweet tooth: donuts, cake, pie - now you know why I have to
workout so much.
The six things I could never do without
I spend a lot of time thinking about
Thanks to my co-worker, Brandon, the end of the world (i.e. the
rapture) and the future of cost effective energy; how I will get
enough workouts for the week (how many days before I have to do
legs again); how can I get my hybrid to 50 mpg; any other ways that
will make my life more OCD than it already is.
On a typical Friday night I am
Sadly for me, I am usually at home. That's not to say I'd prefer to
be home. I may be at the gym (it sounds like I spend all my time
there, but I really don't). Otherwise, I am open to going out and
having a good time.
The most private thing I’m willing to admit here
I have a hierarchy of radios in my car. First, I listen to my
radio. Once I have exhausted all stations (and HD 2 stations), I
switch to my XM. After that, I go back to the radio. Finally, if I
still can't find anything good to listen to, I listen to 5 songs
from my iPod. Then it's back to my radio and the process starts all
over again. Sounds majorly OCD, I know. It's weird, but it helps me
maximize the benefit of all the expensive wastes of money I have
packed in my little Civic.
You should message me if
You should message me if you think the following are funny: a solid
gold dancer; randomness; anything that comes out of Joel McHale's
mouth; Madonna's British accent; the idea that the rapture has
already happened and no one was sucked up; McCain's energy
policy;
You should message me if you think the following is sad: Tila
Tequila; the fact that most people don't recycle; FOX News; the
2012 prediction (and how we believe any prophetic doomsday
prediction); Jewel trying to perform country music; reality TV
dating shows;
Ultimately, you should message me if you think we would get along.
