I’m sarcastic, fun, and crazy at times. I like to smile, but only when it’s genuine. I don’t like putting things into boxes or categories; I like individualism and expression. I love music and writing and creation. I’m average, but like to pretend at times that I’m spectacular. : ) I will be friends with anyone, and I believe we can learn something from everyone.

I enjoy Diet Coke, bicycling, music, texting, sunglasses, Brown Cow yogurt, dancing, the Spanish language, singing, flossing, restaurants, theater, various arrangements of Canon in D, writing, cuddling, sunshine, Brothers and Sisters, the colors blue and green, sarcasm, Fmylife.com, peanut butter, Burt’s Bees, naps, movie theaters, shopping, inside jokes, grammar, snail mail, David Sedaris, collages, green grass, waterskiing, Scrabble, broccoli, paychecks, and argyle- preferably all at the same time.

I'm a student at the University of Minnesota studying journalism, Spanish, and design.

amusing myself and (occasionally) others.

my smile, or the fact that I'm a walking personality.

Books: I've been reading a great deal this summer, mostly because I have too many free hours to fill. I tend to read things I can relate to, often with gay protagonists, but will stick with anything that grabs my attention.

Movies: I tend to prefer happy movies, for the simple fact that real life has enough drama of its own. However, a good drama can be fantastic as well- preferably independent, as long as I'm in the right mood.

Music: is the outlet through which I can truly feel. Choral, orchestral, even sickeningly cute pop on occasion. Just please keep the country to yourself.

Food: going out to eat is one of my very favorite things to do. Thai, Chinese, Mexican, Italian, Indian, Ethiopian- I'll find something I love anywhere.

my cell phone, caffeine, my MacBook, the #2 bus, naps, and love from friends and family.

You are looking for something more than a hookup, you can give and receive respect, and you're capable of being both fun and serious.
