My self-summary Propose an edit

I am a student at Brandeis University. I enjoy traveling, internationally, nationally, and just around Boston. I like to find new restaurants that I haven't been to yet. My self-summary will be edited to actually summarize myself better one of these days, but the website is telling me to put something down right now.

What I'm doing with my life Propose an edit

I am a junior at Brandeis University in Waltham, MA triple majoring in History, Sociology and Health Science Society and Policy and minoring in Legal Studies. I'm planning on going to Law School after I graduate.

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

I am a metal fan though I do not identify with metal culture in general. I also listen to a wide range of Indie music. I play guitar though only very casually and love to go to concerts.Favorite TV Shows:I don't get to watch all that much tv overall, though I am a very big fan of Lost. I watch the Daily Show, Colbert Report and South Park on Comedy Central quite regularly. I also like Heroes, Prison Break and Boston Legal. I used to be a big fan of Sex and the City though the movie sort of ruined the series for me.Favorite Movies:I consider myself to be a bit of a film snob though I can enjoy a good popcorn flick from time to time. I mostly enjoy independent and foreign films.

Give me some good film recommendations to add to my netflix queue

Some Favorite films worth mentioning
Fight Club, Memento, Dogma, Clockwork Orange, Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless, Being John Malcovich, A History of Violence, Almost Famous, Donnie Darko, American Psycho, Rent, I heart Huckabees, Juno, 4 months 3 weeks and 2 days, Lives of Others, The Counterfeiters, The VisitorFavorite Books:I go through periods of obsessive reading for both fiction and non-fiction.

My most recent favorites in fiction include: Saturday and Atonement by Ian McEwan, Interpreter of Maladies, The Ascent of Eli Israel, God is Dead.

Among Non-Fiction I tend to read a lot of historical works. I adored the biographies of John Adams and Harry S. Truman by David McCullough. I read David Hallberstam's last book The Coldest Winter: America and the Korean War recently and found it magisterially written. I read a lot of books relating to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict and love Scars of War Wounds of Peace by Shlomo Ben Ami as well as Tom Segev's account of Palestine during the British mandate period ( One Palestine Complete)

I'm a big fan of ethnic foods like Indian, Thai, Chinese, etc. I tend to enjoy spicier dishes.
