I am nerdy, curious, and unconventional.
My Self-Summary
I'm an intellectually curious mostly-gay girl who likes to learn
and explore everything. I love to meet progressive, open-minded
queer-savvy girls and boys who are not afraid to be a little dorky
sometimes and who enjoy the simple, harmonious path in life. I love
people of all different body types and ethnic backgrounds. I
strongly value
self-knowledge and
communication. I like
to go with the flow. I am confident and modest at the same
time.
I speak several
languages fluently, and I have a large
German-style
board
game collection. I also have an
Atari 2600 with many games. I like
to watch
documentaries, explore hidden
secret corners of Toronto, and invent new languages. I love music
of many obscure genres. I am very mature and have lots of life
experience. That being said, I also have a very silly and strong
childlike side with impulsive and random qualities.
What I’m doing with my life
Language teaching at George Brown
I’m really good at
communication in general, learning and teaching various languages,
European board games, brainstorming, exploring the answer to
difficult questions

The six things I could never do without
Interwebs, dictionaries, foods, Wikipedia, ADHD medication, IRC
I spend a lot of time thinking about
Early hominins, career strategy, optimizing my health and
productivity, obscure languages
On a typical Friday night I am
Doing obscure research on an obscure topic, to feed my brain. Or
watching a movie or playing a video game to unwind. Or hanging out
at the Toronto HackLab in Kensington Market, trying to learn Ruby
or some other nerdy skill. Or peering into the night sky,
especially at red objects like Jupiter or Aldebaran.
The most private thing I’m willing to admit here
I'm more of a top with women than I'd like to admit.
You should message me if
You are creative, unconventional, geeky, nerdy, dorky, artsy,
silly, intellectual, curious, open-minded and/or non-snobby.
Since I'm an extrovert (ENFP to be precise), I tend to be a good
complementary match for introverts.
