I'm a people person, recovering from being an only child with introverted parents. I dream of going to a big family Christmas like you see in the movies, with a kids table and heaps of presents. But I love my parents and will really enjoy our quiet holiday celebration. We'll watch old movies, my mom will cook way too much food (she comes from a huge family), and we'll probably each read our new books for awhile.

I'm an ESFJ on the myers-briggs personality thingy and you can read more about that below.

I'm smart, silly, liberal, love to sing and make up stupid songs.

I work for an environmental non-profit. Aka I'm a professional tree-hugger.

I want to go to grad school eventually..but three years after college I'm still waiting to see what I want to study. Anthropology (undergrad major), psychology (child development), history (social history - what people's lives were like), social work (I'm really interested in foster care and adoption), writing...

"ESFJs are people persons - they love people. They are warmly interested in others. They use their Sensing and Judging characteristics to gather specific, detailed information about others, and turn this information into supportive judgments. They want to like people, and have a special skill at bringing out the best in others. People like to be around ESFJs, because the ESFJ has a special gift of invariably making people feel good about themselves." - some website

smile and friendliness. I like to shake hands and learn people's names. I have a really good memory for names and faces, and might remember a causual meeting a few years later.

I really love fiction about time-travel, particularly historical (think Back to the Future 1 & 3, but not 2). My favorite books therefore are Time and Again by Jack Finney, The Outlander series by Diana Gabaldon, The Time Traveler's Wife. Other favorites are Everything is Illuminated and Jane Eyre. I try to alternate reading classic literature or non-fiction with current fiction.

Movies: I love classic movies!! I watch a lot of movies, but can be pretty snobby about it. Guys should at least be open to watching movies made before they were born. Occasionally you can get me to watch stuff like "son of rambo" (that was actually cute) but on my own I prefer to watch masterpiece theater, British historical dramas.

Music: KEXP!! Mainly what I do these days is listen to KEXP a lot and get music from the library that I've heard on there. Currently favorites: blitzen trapper, the Once soundtrack, Feist, Regina Spektor, the black keys, cold war kids, the kooks, tapes n tapes, kings of leon, menomena, santogold, the smiths
All time favorites: Van Morrison, Michael Jackson (yes, it's true. pre-1989), the White Stripes, Modest Mouse, old musicals and oldies

Food: I'm vegetarian and enjoy cooking. I recently got a great Indian food cook book and am so excited that I can make good Indian food at home! woohoo! I'd be okay with dating a meat eater, as long as he was okay with not always eating meat.

With my friends. I have a close group of friends that I mostly hang out with. The majority of us went to college together out of state and all ended up here.

If you have any of these traits and we seem like a good match.
you play the guitar...
have a beard...
you have a dog...
you can name, let's say, 5 major actors in the 1940s...
you can accurately explain how the smoot-hatley tariff act led to the great depression... (just kidding. that was in Ferris Bueller's Day Off, um, but I do like history)

(these are just things that would get you major bonus points)
