Some things you might want to know:

I'd like to think I've got a pretty 'normal' personality - if I didn't go to a Jesuit school, I'd probably be in a frat. I'm outgoing and like having fun and being funny/stupid, but not in a bad or offensive way (I hope). I'm straightforward and don't try or pretend to be overly complex or "deep". It's not that I dislike having intellectual conversations - I've just run into too many kids who do so/force them nonstop... there's a time and place for everything (and while it's always a good time to laugh, discussing the nuances of health care reform over Busch Lite annoys me).

I try to be nice to everyone, including people I don't like. I naturally give people the benefit of the doubt and find it ALMOST impossible to dislike anyone who is nice, even if I don't want to actually be the one hanging out with them. I almost never get angry.

I'm a closet dork and like learning stuff in my free time (examples include politics, psychology, culture, and media/marketing stuff), but I'm far from super-intellectual. If you give me a (good) nonfiction book on some random topic, there's a solid choice I'll find it interesting. I do not, however, enjoy being forced to learn stuff.

In the past 2 years I've lived in the US, Ecuador, Spain, and India, and it was really, really sweet. I plan on traveling more when I have the $$ to do so, or if I manage to land a sweet international job.

I admit that I think a night spent watching movies and cuddling is more enjoyable than a night out drinking heavily, and I am sorta proud of it (but you probably would not guess this if you met me).

And I'm unique just like everybody.

Just got done working in India, now back at Georgetown (5th year senior). Working, taking classes, and job hunting almost full time. Kinda brutal.

Not bragging. Screwing around. Cuddling. Being myself. And FIFA.

Abroad: I am American (from 200 yards, I've never been mistaken for another nationality)
US: No clue, honestly - I hope different things (and I hope they vary depending on the situation I'm in)

Books: Anything by Kurt Vonnegut, Chuck Palahniuk, John Irving, and lots of other stuff (I read the Economist/NY Times, if you're a neocon we might not jive)
Movies: American Beauty, A Beautiful Mind, City of God, Traffic, Fight Club, Snatch, Old School, Layer Cake, Anchorman, Superbad, documentaries... but I'll watch almost anything
Music: anything good... depends on my mood. lots of electronic stuff (i.e. techno/trip hop) and Pandora is great
Food: sushi, steak, ice cream. and ethnic food. trader joes microwaveable food is pretty solid as well

Food, water, shelter, love, friends, family, a plan

And childlike humor. Just found this gem: www.mylifeisaverage.com

Whatever's right in front of me, accomplishing something (I swear I do not act like it), the future, people... depends.

Down for anything (within reason)

I wanted to be renamed Sonic until I was about 6 or so, and dressed up as a ninja for Halloween 5 years in a row.

You're not mean, you're open-minded, you've got something going for yourself (whatever that might be), and you want to.
