Yada yada yada.

Writing is what I do to wind down. I have only really written short stories--poetry is not my forte. As of late, I'm writing about the effects of color and dream like states. I love dreaming and lots of bold colors.

Researching psychological phenomenons is a bit of a dork thing to do, but I seem to really enjoy every sense of the lifestyle. I'm fascinated about twin and gender studies

Random things-- cumulus clouds and volcanoes. Oh, and I used to collect national geographic pamphlets on different animals. Thus, I like random animal information too. You know, lemurs are really interesting--they rub their sweat glands on their enemies.

So let's see. I like to help others all the time. Without doing so, I feel like I'm not living life. I especially like helping others through artistic outlets because I think it is completely healthy and amazing. Funny thing is that I can't really paint well. It all turns out to be a blob.

I'm also very proud of what I call my faux band entitled the Snacks. We are pretty vulgour and sweet--kind of like Sour Patch Kids candy. My sister plays the xylophone and an organ she got from goodwill, my friend kelly jo rocks out the guitar, and I pretend I play the harmonica, sing and tambourine.

I guess that's it! High Five!

I am recently doing non-profit work, working as a case manager for the homeless population. I have a second job/hobby that involves doing after school art projects with kids. I'm interested in art therapy for my masters, but I'm just not sure yet. I want to travel sooooo much more, so I'm confused.

Turning awkward into awesome.

Unfortunately, it has to do with my blue eyes all the time. I need a little more umph.

That's a mouthful! Literally! I love all kinds of food. I'm very interested in learning how to cook all things vegetarian. My last adventure was a black bean burger. I just bought the Mastering the Art of French Cooking by Julia Childs, so we'll see if I can tackle that. These days, anything with some good and cheap wine is pretty fine.

Why is the music question always hard? I know I like waking up to blues in the morning before work. Billie Holiday always makes me nostalgic of something, probably wanting to sleep more. The grunge era seems to be creeping back in my life. I especially heart the Cranberries, Blind Melon, and Smashing Pumpkins. As for the new stuff, I have been into Pheonix, Beirut, Sufjan Stevens, Santogold, Passion Pit, and lots more that makes me dance in my pants? Ah, I could go on, but that's lame these days, I guess.

Books. Whew. I feel like I'm writing one. Just finished Sedaris' recent book. I laughed out loud on the subway a lot. I like a lot of dark and dramatic stuff. Shelley's Frankenstein is a good example of that.

Movies. So I think I like a lot of independent films. I pretty much have fallen in love with Charlie Kaufman's films. Wes Anderson is amazing at detail and colors. David Lynch is creepy and lovely. Almovodar is top notch.

Again, lists are kind of dumb, but that's the gist.

1. A communication device.

2. Strong Coffee.

3. A good, warm blanket.

4. Southern Food.

5. Hugs.

6. Things to look at.

Existentialism.

Going to some random party and cultivating a plan with my best friend which usually ends up in a pretentious bar with lots of red lipstick and hipster mullets. Why does this always happen? We don't know. However, the music seems to be always fun, and a dance party tends to form. Afterwards, we'll go home and munch on our favorite, thematic snack: Diet Lime Coke and Hint of Lime Tortillas. Yum.

I like to facebook. Ugh.

You're down like julia brown.
