Issuing supreme power to you...one moment.

My self-summary Propose an edit

Sometimes the "Journal" tab doesn't work. If you're having problems seeing my entries ("fetch error"), Click here to read my journal.

I'm generally laid back but I can get worked up when I'm stressed. I guess I'm really looking for someone just to hang out with and have fun. I can be pretty crazy at times, and I'm probably the epitome of random. I need folks who can keep up with me and know when to give me space. I'm not terribly political, I just like to have good, clean fun (and video games).

Hm. What else. I like to just lay around and relax. I'm pretty sure people would consider me a cuddler. I love fish. I daydream and can be pretty silly (particularly when I'm tired...or so I've been told). I can be serious though. It depends on what circumstances I meet people in, I suppose. Some people rarely see my silly side, and others rarely see me serious. I think what I prefer in another person is someone who is mainly silly but can be straightforward and serious on occasion.

Also, I abhor people who type with numbers (13375p33k - P13353 D0n'7). It's such an unwieldy way to write and it's so hard to read.

What I'm doing with my life Propose an edit

As a person who has just graduated from college, I'm now employed and not using my expensive liberal arts degree at all! I was a Bio Major, Marine Science and Policy minor and I hope that in the future, I'll go back to that. I'm planning to have real-world experience for a year or two and then go back to grad school, where I'm hoping to perhaps one day do some really seminal research on squid and octopus. I took a few education classes, and I loved it, even though I'd always said I hate kids. I guess it's just not that simple. Really, who can tell? My current employment requires learning more about the people and hospitals of California. We'll see if it's really as great as everyone seems to think it is.

I guess I'm also learning how to use my calculator. Because you really could spend all of your life learning how to use your TI-83 Plus Series (mine's blue).

I'm really good at Propose an edit

identifying songs on my computer about a half a second in? The 2 single card tricks I know? Channel surfing? Beginner french? Intermediate sewing?

Oh, I know. I'm really good at baking chicken. I have "mad skillz" when it comes to making chicken. I'm good at slightly burning popcorn, which is the way I eat it (popcorn was a large portion of my diet when I was at college - keeps the room toasty, fills you up, and is pretty light). Using parentheses. I like to think I'm ok at drawing. I use my OKC journal to post comics I draw about my life. If you're really bored by my profile, maybe you should just skip over to my journal instead. Read the journal here.

The first thing(s) people usually notice about me Propose an edit

My height. It's true, I'm really short. 4'10.5 and I'm not getting any taller. I don't see that as a negative though. I just take up less space than most people. After that though, probably my eyes.

My favorite books, movies, music, and food Propose an edit

I hate playing favorites. I like fantasy books as a genre. Movies: Chick flicks, romantic comedies, comedies in general, action, adventure, anime (though this is starting to fade from my interests), sci-fi. No horror please. Oh, musicals are good too. I like to sing along sometimes, even if my voice isn't the greatest ^_^; .

I listen to a lot of different kinds of music - popular, hip hop, folk, a capella, opera, classical. Some things I don't listen to? Country and Christian. Ick. Oh. Unless it's Christmas music. Then I'm all for it.

The six things I could never do without Propose an edit

My computer, music, paper, pencils, a good collection of scifi/fantasy books, and a scanner.

Am I the only person who hates this question? I think they should replace it with something more interesting. It's nice to know what someone could NEVER do without, but it's rarely true, and not at all realistic. I could live without books. I'd just be very sad. If I had nothing else in the world but clothes and my self-esteem, I'd sneak into a Barnes and Noble, but technically, the books wouldn't be mine. I'd be without them. You see what I mean?

I spend a lot of time thinking about Propose an edit

Fish. Paint. Origami. Video Games. My family. My friends. My computer. My education. I'm rather ephemeral. I spend a lot of time thinking about a lot of really random things. What I would do if I won the lottery. What I should eat for lunch. Should I call my parents? What to do with the summer break. How to clean out the tupperware. the best phrases for LJ icons. The Pretender. Music. Coupons. Algae. The number 38. So on, so forth.

On a typical Friday night I am Propose an edit

Watching Movies or reading.

I'm practically broke at the moment, so going out isn't really an option unless it's just to a local park or something.

Also, maybe starting new projects or trying to learn a new skill. I'm thinking of taking up quilting. Alternatively, I may decide to learn how to bake really fantastic cookies.

The most private thing I'm willing to admit here Propose an edit

I like to play dress up. But probably not in the ways you're thinking. I dressed up as a platypus for a science course a few semesters ago. Yeah, it was required . . . but I kinda enjoyed it all the same. In the past year I've made Little Red Riding Hood and Cthulhu Lolita costumes and wore them to my school's sci-fi convention.

Yes, I really *am* that much of a geek.

You should message me if Propose an edit

you want to; or if you think you can make me laugh (it really doesn't take much, but please, don't try too hard...sometimes I'm just not in the mood to laugh); or if you love animals; or if you want someone with whom you can complain about the job/housing market; or if you enjoyed "The Importance of Being Earnest" yet also enjoy the refreshing wit of Jackie Chan; or if you just want to be friends (Especially if you're up for some Soul Calibur beat-down).

I can use all the friends I can get.

Oh yes, that's right, I'm "unwooable" now! Stop being lazy/shy/obnoxious and speak for yourself!
