I am thinking, calm, and silly.
My Self-Summary
A self-summary, eh? I am just a college student, a simple girl, but
slightly complex, I suppose. I am an E/INTP on the MBTI (Google it)
and a 9/5 on the Enneagram. I suppose that should tell you enough
about my standard personality, without my having to come up with
too much at the moment.
Oh, and the word silly? Yeah, that basically describes me in
person. Silly and random.
What I’m doing with my life
Right now, I am a student at a tiny college in Indiana, loving
life. I'm not 100% sure what I want to do with my life after
college yet; I've not even decided on a major. At the moment I have
several ideas floating around, which include writing, teaching, and
behavioral sciences. Perhaps I will find some way to combine the
three. Perhaps.
I’m really good at
I have been told that I am excellent at writing. I happen to agree
with those that have told me that.
Other than that, I am decent at making random insightful comments.
The first things people usually notice about me
First impressions from friends who have known me for a while were
that I am weird, intelligent, quiet, and aloof. After getting to
know me, the aloofness and quietness fade, but the weirdness and
intelligence apparently do not. Physically, I am quite tall, and I
have incredibly dark eyes.
My favorite books, movies, music, and food
The only book I can really say is my favorite is Les Miserables.
Other than that, I only have favorite authors. They are Theodore
Dalrymple, Frank Peretti, Francis Schaeffer, Ravi Zacharias,
Dietrich Bonhoeffer, Thomas Sowell, Neil Postman, and Ted Dekker
before I gained the ability to deduce the entire story of his books
based on reading the first three pages because he uses the same
plot for nearly all of them. I enjoy anything, though, of a
philosophical/existential nature. And poetry.
My favorite movies are the LOTR trilogy, Schindler's List, Ordinary
People, Remember the Titans, Finding Nemo, 2:37, The Dark Knight,
Waking Life, Beauty and the Beast, Miracle, and, recently,
Juno.
As for music, I enjoy almost anything but country. My favorite
music is all purely instrumental, and of that, I particularly enjoy
dissonance.
The six things I could never do without
Hmm.
1. My faith
2. Thought
3. Other people
4. Books
5. Nature
6. ...Oxygen
I spend a lot of time thinking about
Oh my. I think a lot, so this question is difficult. But...
connection between people, expression, psychology, philosophy,
truth, the nature of intelligence and its different forms...
Anything abstract and relating to life in general, really.
On a typical Friday night I am
I'll probably be out with my friends, playing cards or Risk or
having some discussion or something.
The most private thing I’m willing to admit here
I used to self-injure. And that's not even really a private thing,
although it seems like it is, because I do wear things (such as
short-sleeve shirts) that show the scars to anyone who sees me.
You should message me if
You are a thinker and interested in having fascinating
conversations/debates.
