I am verbose, insatiably curious, and somewhat ridiculous.
My Self-Summary
I Am Only Looking For Friends. If you hadn't taken the time to
notice.
You know, people to hang out with. Or to go to events with. Maybe
grab a drink? Watch some witty shows or catch a movie? Go on a
hike? A jogging buddy? An adventure accomplice?
If you have cat allergies, it might not work out. Sorry.
I like to play with words, and enjoy indulging in
alliteration, for a while I
gave up coffee for
Maté,
asymmetry is an element I crave,
aesthetic and visual composition keeps me entertained, I love to
learn (but hate to be patronized),
body modification is a
fickle hobby of mine,
conceptual thinking is good,
the abstract
makes me smile, ridiculous
books consume my time, trendy crap gives
me a reason to consume,
nostalgia is big for me, I have an
uncanny love for
narratives, and I laugh a Lot, often
about
nothing in particular
(which I very deliberately linked, yes). I aspire to be
multilingual.
I am active. I often try things or take up hobbies simply for the
sake of doing/trying them. Curious.
Poor grammar/writing skills can make me cringe, but I will
delightedly converse in run-on sentences and/or fragments for all
eternity, if the fancy strikes me. Hypocrisy? No no. There's a fine
line, you see.
I want to see
the
world, and dislike the complications, obligations, and lack of
finances that seem to bar so many of my good travel plans.
Discovering
new
music makes me high.
What I’m doing with my life
Good Question.
I'm trying to learn
French. It isn't easy. They have a lot of
words, you know.
I'm a full-time student. I work in retail. I have a couple of these
fuzzy kitty creatures. I like to see things, read things, learn
things, do stuff. You know, that kinda thing.
I’m really good at
The first things people usually notice about me
This isn't something I ask people.
Also, feel free to notice that the comments below are the work of
editors.
Self-deprecating humor
is great, but I don't usually compose scenarios in which
I am a duck.
-They notice her Stellar Beauty ..
-Her gorgeous eyes!
-duck lips. they notice that they're talking to a duck. a
duck-faced girl prostrate on the floor, weighted by piercings
(presumed markings of duck farmer?). They notice with interest that
nobody farms ducks, not a familiar culture. whose duck is this? and
they notice a familiar idea, a proper idea they had once; a
property idea. can you own something really? whoever put the metal
on this duck sure thought so. like a computer you shouldn't put
magnets around her. they notice something in the word computer that
seems interesting and then forget, and keep walking past the duck
on the floor
Editors
My favorite books, movies, music, and food
I'm a list compiler. (Copy + Paste = Neat-o)
For the sake of summarizing: I read lots of books, and plan on
reading lots more. I watch movies for the sake of seeing them.
Music is important. Food is not a huge talking point to me?

The six things I could never do without
This category is pretty absurd, right? I am hereby re-phrasing it:
"The six (or 3) things I would prefer not to do without."
A pleasant environment. (I miss beaches and starry skies when they
aren't available.)
Music. There is always a song in my head, if not coming out of my
mouth. I have a constant mental soundtrack.
Um. Sustenance, including but not limited to: foodibles &
beverages. (That's important?)
I spend a lot of time thinking about
The questions, like any other sentient being.
My future. The human psyche (esp. the dreaming mind). Words &
Syntax. Aesthetics and Photography (with a capital 'P'). Musical
influence. Art. Fashion. Fiction. Business. Possibilities.
Perspective. Everything else.
The most private thing I’m willing to admit here
Having this account makes me feel like a bit of a creep, but being
the unbearably curious soul that I am, I suspect this will continue
for a while.
I not-so-secretly long to be a
coastie again, someday.
You should message me if
you have something to say.
