Hey everyone. My name is Lydia, and I'm just going to ramble in
this box since they gave me one with absolutely no direction!
I'm a huge
nerd and I
geek out over the most silly things....like sesamoid bones, bugs,
and the science behind acrylic nails.
I'm looking for fellow nerds or multi-faceted people who see the
world as a giant museum and life as something beautiful that must
be cared for.
School is very important to me. I hate stupidity, and I disparage
"blissful ignorance".
I feel the need to clarify that I'm not skinny. I'm not a complete
blob, I mean, I still have a figure. But if that bothers you, then
I suggest you stop reading right now. I'm working on it, but we all
know it takes time and ups and downs. If you're not a vapid,
shallow ass...then I welcome you to my page!
And because I have nothing left to say, here's two of my favorite
quotes:
"Do not believe in anything simply because you have heard it. Do
not believe in anything simply because it is spoken and rumored by
many. Do not believe in anything simply because it is found written
in your religious books. Do not believe in anything merely on the
authority of your teachers and elders. Do not believe in traditions
because they have been handed down for many generations. But after
observation and analysis, when you find that anything agrees with
reason and is conducive to the good and benefit of one and all,
then accept it and live up to it." Buddha
"The greatness of a nation and its moral progress can be judged by
the way its animals are treated." Gandhi
P.S. Hi
lordfen and
oheohkillert0fu!!! Two of my best
friends!
I'm in college right now double majoring in physical
anthropology and
geography with a
minor in
forensic sciences. I'm going
to go on after this for my
Masters (been looking into grad schools)
and then
PhD so I can
be a
professor
of anthropology.
I'm close to fluent in
Swedish, and want to learn
Finnish. I'm learning
Portuguese
since was just researching in Portugal and will be going back next
summer as well for more specified research. Also, I'm hoping to
take 4 semesters of German in college. Can you tell that I love
languages?
When I'm not being a bookworm, I love hanging out with my friends,
watching movies, listening to music (and singing along poorly),
cooking, hiking, and
laughing.
My hair (wavy/curly, blondish/reddish, and down to the very bottom
of my back).

who wouldn't want to go to Chili's, TGI Fridays, or Applebee's all
the time.
Religion.
Politics.
Human rights.
Animal rights (I'm a monthly donor to the ASPCA).
Environmental protection.
Financial planning because I'm terrified of the future.
Why I got that "award" for being "less trusting". Hmmm...
And whatever work I have to do for school.
Doing
homework!
Or
hanging out
with friends. Boring life eh?
Now in Swedish
Jag alltid har jätte mycket läxor att göra! Eller är jag med
vänner. Tråkigt liv, ja?
I'll pass out if my showers are too hot or too cold.
I hate to create stipulations, but, alas, I feel as though they are
necessary so listen up!
I'm a grammar freak. Please don't message me if you can't spell and
use (at least moderately) proper grammar. I WILL correct you.
I don't want to go on a date after speaking with you for all of 20
glorious seconds.
I don't want a sugardaddy.
