Your Notes
Edit your notesI am curious, generous, and neurotic.
My Self-Summary
I'm an overly ambitious, somewhat introverted bookworm who likes
planning her adventures in advance.
I'm obsessed with questions of trauma, memory and forgiveness as they pertain to nations and to people, which is, as a dear friend of mine says, an excellent example of yoking your critical issues to your vital issues.
I also like counterfactual history, American craft beer, museums, Craftsman furniture, writing personal essays, and peripheries of all kinds.
Jetzt wohne ich in Berlin, und höffentlich wird mein Deutsch immer besser.
¡Ojala que la lengua todavia con fluencia hablara!
(Como mi mama siempre me dice, "Pobrecita.")
Simdi Türkçe ökuyorum. Türkçe zor, ama bu dili çok ilginç buluyorum. Gelecek yil Türkçe daha okuyacagim.
Kolay gelsin!

Now in German
Mein Deutsch ist mehr als "okay" aber auch weniger als "fliessend,"
und ich weiss nicht, warum OkCupid kein Option dafür hat. Ich kann
Deutsch, ich habe es seit vier Jahren studiert, und ich kann
deswegen besonders gut lesen und verstehen, aber meine Sprach und
Schreibkenntnisese sind nicht so beeindruckend. (Ich habe meine
Diplomarbeit auf Hans Prinzhorn geschrieben, und habe mein Thema in
Heidelberg und Marbach erforscht. Es machte Spass, aber die
Archivarinnen fanden mich wahrscheinlich ganz komisch.)Jetzt wohne ich in Berlin, und höffentlich wird mein Deutsch immer besser.
Now in Spanish
Puedo leer y entender Español bastante bien, pero cuando lo hablo,
puedes reconocer rapidamente que ahora estoy más Alaman-hablante
que Español-hablante.¡Ojala que la lengua todavia con fluencia hablara!

What I’m doing with my life
I just finished a degree in German Studies and History and am now
in Berlin. It's pretty neat. I'm supposed to be studying how we
create national identity through our history curriculums, and what
that means for a German nation-state suddenly besieged by
outsiders. (Incidentally, I don't really like the
nation-state.)
So far, though, it's been more of the theater and reading books in cafes and wandering around the U-Bahn, and wondering how I got so lucky, and wishing I were better at making friends to share it with.

I’m really good at
Reading and distilling dense historiography quickly (but not
remembering facts, not at all), writing under pressure, talking
frankly about sex, making bad jokes and laughing before I get to
the punchline, finding my way around foreign places, making out,
pairing beers and foods, did I mention reading and writing
quickly?
I'd like to get better at brewing beer, I'm learning Turkish on top of my Spanish, German, and smattering of Esperanto (with Polish and Hungarian as far-off goals), and I'm always up for learning a new board game, and have found that I am less hopeless at Scrabble than previously assumed.

The first things people usually notice about me
The last person I dated called me "the queen of awkward laughter."
So there's that.
My favorite books, movies, music, and food
I can't make a book list without feeling that it's (1) incomplete
and (2) trying too desperately to be cool, but Alice in Wonderland,
Ingeborg
Bachmann, and Jorge Luis Borges are the
first three things I saw on my shelf. I have a strong love-hate
relationship with Jonathan Franzen and like
graphic novels, too.
(To be honest I read mostly non-fiction these days, but those titles would probably bore you.)
I like movies a lot but never remember them. I do like Werner Herzog a lot, MST3K is a recent favorite, and I came late but happily to Buffy the Vampire Slayer. I also have a distressingly deep knowledge of reality television.
Top five musicians are probably R.E.M., Pavement, The Mountain Goats, Indigo Girls and Guided by Voices.
Trying new foods is one of my favorite things in the world--Indian is probably my favorite cuisine? I am also passionate about ice cream. And beer. Don't forget beer.
And these questions never ask about the visual arts, but I'm something of a modern art nerd, so: Die Brücke, particularly Ernst Ludwig Kirchner. Paul Klee. Anselm Kiefer. Jenny Holzer. Agnes Martin. Robert Smithson. The wild world of outsider art.

The six things I could never do without
My library card.
My (gallows) sense of humor.
The Internet.
The narrative imagination.
Good beer.
Feminism and its children.

I spend a lot of time thinking about
How to write a better feminist sex advice column.
My morbid fascination with Henry Darger.
How to bridge the gap between public history and academic history.
Plans for future road trips and other sorts of trips too.
The cultural turn in history.

On a typical Friday night I am
This past Friday night I went grocery shopping with my roommate,
and then we made crepes with Nudossi, the better version of
Nutella.
The most private thing I’m willing to admit here
I'm a pretty open person, but there has to be recipricocity. Feel
free to message me and try to figure out what makes me tick, and
I'll do the same for you. Deal.
You should message me if
I suppose if you want to be my friend here in Berlin, or if you,
too, like some combination of sex toys, craft beer, and
Vergangenheitsbewältigung.
I don't know that I'm looking for a full-blown relationship right now, but I'm open to platonic friends, and open whatever else might catch my eye.
