Whee! I love talking about myself. This is the best box I've stumbled upon in ages!

I'm pretty talkative (typative?), so this will be no problem. I'm not reading this as I write, 'cause I get into the habit of changing it all, and then it ends up sounding awkwardly formal. I figure this way it'll be more of what I am in conversation. That is... talkative (typative?) and not necessary totally capable of making sense when I get excited.

Goal: to sum up why you should message me. So, yeah. Do it. Do it now.

First, I'm a huge nerd. I'm big into reading, writing, poetry, and sleep. I have to admit that I love Star Wars. You have no idea how excited I was when The Phantom Menance came out when I was in elementary shcool. I even own Star Wars books, cards, movies, and (pride and joy) a "Star Wars Trivial Pursuit" game. Oh, and my comforter is Star Wars themed! Sadly, it's getting awfully threadbare. Other than that, I guess it's up to you to ask specifics!

Second, I love language. Between school and hobby, I do tons of writing. Right now, the only language I know fluently is English, but I'm working on French and flailing at the impossibility of Mandarin. GOD it's hard. Oh, and puns are very important. Veeery important. I tried to think of a pun to put there, but it didn't work. Tragic.

For all my dissipated energy, I really try to know myself. I like to think I know what I'm good at, and what I'm not. I think you should offercriticism and advice. It's fun to talk about me! (And, I GUESS, you, if you insist etc. etc.) If you have any suggestions about my profile, feel free to message me!

I'm a Medical student at the University of Saskatchewan. I finished a History degree in 2008, so I also have a lot of ties to the humanities. I'm pretty well aimed toward family practice, since I like the idea of a nice slow life. I hope to grow algae on me one day, like a sloth. (Did you know sloths are green? WHAT A GOOD IDEA. But really, who knows? I'm keeping my options open. For all you heiresses out there, that includes marrying rich.

Well, I can reach stuff, so long as it isn't heavy. I bike quite a bit, so I guess that says something about my balance. (Ironically, right after I wrote this I nailed my elbow on my car as I biked down the driveway.)

I play the flute and handbells. I'm getting better and better! SUPER excitingly, I just put my flute on a rent-to-own thing, so come next September I'll be the owner of a flute! My very own instrument!

Speaking of arts, I also write poetry, as I mentioned above. I really feel like I've been improving lately, which is super exciting!

I love baking, mostly because I love eating. Cookie]s] are my speciality, but I've also made cakes, pies, and bread when the cravings demanded it.

Actually, I do a lot of cooking in general. So an excellent third date might be a supper / dessert party!

Well, I'm tall, redheaded, and bucktoothed. Oh! I also wave my hands around when I get excited. Or, if I need to be constrained, wiggle my fingers excitedly.

A) "Dune," "Memoirs of a Geisha," "The Timetraveller's Wife," "Winnie the Pooh, and "Lolita."

B) "Coraline," "Moulin Rouge," "Wall-E," "Paris Je t'Aime," and "The Neverending Story"

C) Abba, Abba Teens, Chris de Burgh, Aqua, Au Revoir Simone, The Decemberists, and Smile.dk.

D) Beef stew, pancakes, custard, pies, carbonara, steak.

Okay, really, I could just sit here and list off stuff because I love so much. This is is far from complete, but I hope it gives an idea!

My inner monologue, my computer, my books, my cats, my smile, and my mom.

In no particular order
- cute animals
- my future
- my clothing
- friends
- puns
- school
- popcorn

I play handbells on Fridays during the school year. In the summer, it's pretty much what I do every night--try to take over the world.

I jump around and swing imaginary swords like I'm ten.

You're a positive person, don't hesitate to smile, like puns, and (obviously) think we'd get along!
