I am peculiar, passionate, and geeky.
My Self-Summary
I used to have a long and detailed profile here, but decided that
that's horribly boring. Who wants to know everything about the
person before you've had a chance to say anything? Besides, most of
the time I find that I need to change something constantly, and
that people message me based on things that are no longer
true.
I'll admit to being something of a
geek, though frankly I don't obsess over
anything to such a degree that I'll be able to follow you if you
claim to be an otaku in any specific field. I like some anime, many
video games, sci-fi and fantasy books and film, and lots of online
and offline RPGs, but none of these really occupies my life.
Enneagram-wise, I'm a 2, possibly winging 1. I'm a little bit of a
romantic, but I don't usually let it show too much at first.
Depending on the day and the test, Meyers-Briggs pegs me as an INFP
or an ENFP. While I'm spiritual to some degree, I tend to get along
better with atheists and agnostics than I do with theists. As a
general rule, I don't talk about my faith outside of this: if
something in science says something in my faith is false, then it
is my faith that changes; however, if you ask me questions I'm not
afraid to share what I believe with you.
I also like pie. Mmm, pie.
What I’m doing with my life
I'm currently in
college studying to be a
teacher. My goal is to
teach high school
biology, though honestly I'm not so
naive as to think Bio is what I'll end up teaching. I'd be happy
with any of the sciences.
I also take
Tai
Chi, and am looking for other things to occupy my time outside
of school and work.
I’m really good at
Being awesome in a can of nifty in a bucket of bodacious. I'd ask
why no one uses the word "bodacious" anymore, but I think I already
know the answer. >_>
The first things people usually notice about me
Probably that I'm notably eccentric.
My favorite books, movies, music, and food
This section was at one point very long and, no doubt,
exceptionally boring. So I'll try to keep it short and sweet this
time. I'm not going to bother with food since I'm cool with
anything not seafood, but I'm going to add tv shows and games. Also
as a disclaimer, these are not my absolute favorites all the time,
but a few I like that I think could be interesting to talk
about.

Brave
New World,
Ender's Game, and pretty much
anything

to enjoy reading, and find I don't read nearly enough.

The six things I could never do without
1. My Friends
2. Science! (Exclamation point necessary. It's a verb now!)
3. My Computer
4. Extraordinary days.
5. Laughter
6. Compelling Stories, be they in movies, books, or a tall tale
related from one friend to another.
I spend a lot of time thinking about
Science! Because science is really cool, yo.
I also think of, well, whatever else happens to come to mind. My
thoughts go all over the place, and I'd really prefer it that way.
I find I have trouble relating to people who spend all their time
thinking about one topic and one topic only, because I've never had
any one thing that dominated all of my thoughts (except maybe sex
as a teenager, but seriously, who ~didn't~ go through that phase?)
On a typical Friday night I am
Fridays are usually my stay at home and be glad the week is over
days. Most of my plans usually happen on Saturdays or Sundays, and
usually involve board games, RPGs, movies, museums, or whatever
else sounds like fun at the time. That said, if someone invited me
to do something on a friday, depending on how exhausted I was I'd
probably say yes.
The most private thing I’m willing to admit here
Insert obligatory answer here so that the stupid box doesn't look
all empty and sad. Be full, stupid little box, be full and happy!
You should message me if
-You got the reference when I said that science is "a verb
now!"
- You're local and are a person of passion, intelligence, and who
accepts that men can be feminine and women can be masculine.
- You're NOT local and want to play [Brutal Legend] with me. Or,
alternately, you just want to talk.
I'll be honest, at this juncture I'm mostly looking for friends. I
know enough about myself to know that my romances work better when
they build from friendship and not from blind passion.
