I am intelligent, introverted, and geeky.
My Self-Summary
I'm a nerd. I am interested in
computers,
astronomy,
physics,
linguistics,
science fiction (though I am by
no means an expert in these subjects). I have a bachelors degree in
computer
science. I like to hang out with friends and play video games
or watch movies. I also like to bowl every once in a while. I am
very quiet, often in group situations I just listen to everybody
else, only speaking up every once in a while. I speak some
German. Random
note, though I say I dislike cats in my info, that's not entirely
accurate, I like cats, but unfortunately my immune system doesn't,
I'm allergic to them. If I take medicine, I can usually tolerate
them.
Physically, I think I'm decent looking, if a little short. 5'4",
145 lbs, long brown hair. I've been told I look like Kevin Smith
(specifically Silent Bob).
Now in German
Nein!
Though I can speak the language and understand it decently, it
would take me forever to write a paragraph in German, at least a
grammatically correct one.
What I’m doing with my life
I work full time as a programmer. I work on a web content
management solution for schools. When I'm not working, I'm hanging
out with friends, surfing the net, or playing
video games. I also enjoy the
occasional night of
bowling
I’m really good at
I'm good at pulling random movie/tv/literary quotes out of thin
air, just don't ask me to do it, it has to be spontaneous. I'm told
I'm a good singer, but very few people get the privilege of hearing
that, talk to my steering wheel, it'll tell you what's up. I'm
pretty good at doing stuff with computers obviously, hence the
degree. I'm pretty good at vidja games. I'm alright at dance dance
revolution, better than most anyway, though my little brother kicks
my ass.
The first things people usually notice about me
That I don't talk a lot.
Or sometimes that I look like Silent Bob.
I assume my hair is in the first things people notice as well,
since it is quite long.
My favorite books, movies, music, and food
-- Books --
Stephen King's "Dark Tower" series
J.R.R. Tolkien's "Lord of the Rings" (yes, I read them long before
anyone heard of the movies)
George Orwell's "1984"
Lots more. I like to read, though I haven't actually had much to
read in a while now. I need suggestions.
-- Movies --
The Big Lebowski
Fight Club
Office Space
No Country for Old Men
Memento
-- Television --
Battlestar Galactica
Stargate (any of em)
Heroes
The Simpsons
Star Trek (any of em)
South Park
Family Guy
Futurama
Rome
Firefly
-- Music --
Muse
Modest Mouse
The Offspring
Weezer
Red Hot Chili Peppers
Cake
Reel Big Fish
The Beatles
Lots lots more. No way I can do my taste in music justice by
rattling a list off, and I can't really explain it by a
category/genre, but those are some of my favorite bands. I can be
content listening to pretty much anything but country or rap.
-- Food --
Spaghetti!!! Oh yes.. Italian food in general I guess is my
favorite stuff. I also like spicy stuff, but I'm not going to act
all macho and accept everyone's spicy food challenges.
The six things I could never do without
Electricity
Internet
Computers
Music
Friends
Something to keep me busy (work, school, something like that)
I spend a lot of time thinking about
I pretty much constantly have some song or another running through
my head. Ummm... I don't know, I'm constantly thinking about
anything and everything, I'm really quiet a lot of the time, and
therefore spend quite a bit of time in my head. I'll think about
metaphors/similes related to the situation at hand. I'll think
about how things might be done more efficiently with
computers/robots, and how it would be coded. I'll think about how
things could be made into an interesting movie, etc. etc.
On a typical Friday night I am
Eating dinner with my parents. Yeah, lame I know, kind of a Friday
tradition though.
Also occasionally at a bar with my coworkers. I'm not a huge fan of
drinking myself, but they are, so eh, I'll join them and have some
fun from time to time.
The most private thing I’m willing to admit here
Hmm, nothing here. Ask me personally.
You should message me if
If you're an open minded, liberal/progressive person. If you're a
nerd and/or a geek. If you don't mind me being shy. If you enjoy
hanging out playing video games. If you like science fiction. If
you're a purdy lady.
