I am sweet, quirky, and bright.
My Self-Summary
I'm a German and Psychology double major just changed from music
(classical voice). I love
school! I have a job at a science museum,
which I like most of the time, good friends and a screwed up but
lovable family. I love
learning and people. I will hopefully
be studying next year in Germany! I tend to talk to myself too
much, and have a major weakness for Mystery Science Theatre 3000.
I'm a little bit of a risk taker, not like in the bungee jumping
sense but in the opening my own business at the age of 19 sort of
way. I set goals for myself and usually achieve them. I'm
opinionated but don't necessarily take them too seriously. I love
debating things and learning about other's ideas about the world. I
love to travel and am fortunate enough to have backpacked through
Europe, I'm hoping to go to Tibet next summer! I'm obsessed with
gnomes and creepy owls from the 60's. I'm also pretty sure that my
soul mate is a joke telling Pirate. Enough about me what about you?
The end of the summary got a little wierd didn't it?
What I’m doing with my life
As mentioned above I'm going to school, I'm going to PSU to finish
my bachelors in Psychology and German. When I'm not working or
attending classes I work on my
singing,
read, work out, hang with friends and
strangers, I do a lot of handwork like knitting and jewelry making.
I've been learning the violin and playing 2nd in orchestra the past
year so any time I can spend on that unruly instrument practicing
the better! I used to
volunteer a lot, I'd like to get back
into that. I also like to revel in my
geekiness! Right now I'm trying to
figure out how to be the best version of myself possible.
I’m really good at
Singing, listening to peoples problems, being optimistic. I'm a
good friend, daughter and sister and I think those are some of the
most important things I can be. I take care of people.
The first things people usually notice about me
My eyes. I'm quiet and shy. At first anyway, once I get a little
cozier I'm crazy! Everyone says I seem four years older than I am
too...which makes sense I've had a lot of life experience.
My favorite books, movies, music, and food
Lady Chatterly's lover by
DH Lawrence...I love the way he
writes it's so fluid and intimate the book was also really relevant
today. Anything David Sedaris or Truman Capote. I just finished
reading the Knife Man about John Hunter one of the "fathers" of
surgery and one of the greatest anatomists of all time. I adore
bell hooks, I think if everyone read her books we'd be in a lot
better place. I'm a sucker for
comedy...two words
Napolean Dynamite! I also
love indy and foreign film. I enjoy new perspectives on things and
film usually gives you that. I love music. I can't really think of
a genre I don't listen to. If it's good it's good. I love Tom Waits
and
PJ Harvey-
uh huh her...I love
world music too. I listen to
bollywood music quite a bit. Of course I listen to a lot of
Classical music/Opera. My Faves there include Wagner, Mahler,
Verdi, Gesualdo, Strauss Montiverdi, and Liszt. I'm a
vegetarian so any
veggies and fruits...Lebanese food is a favorite!
The six things I could never do without
My intuition, my family, friends, music, food and water,
monty python.
I spend a lot of time thinking about
My place in the world....who I'm going to be. How I can make
positive change in the world. Feminism. My friends and family:)
On a typical Friday night I am
Either taking my little bro on a "dinner and a movie date" Or at
some party with a friend or two. Or driving somewhere crazy with
the music turned up and my best friend randomly pointing to places
on the map. Or usually unfortunately working:(
The most private thing I’m willing to admit here
I'm really horrible at lying.
You should message me if
You're a geek or a dork or some combination. Or if you think you're
cool, cause I probably will too.
