This is my about me post.
I figured it was just about time for one. A handful of followers have popped up lately, and I thought I’d properly introduce myself to everyone. Here goes…
- I’m 21 (although I accidentally typed 12 first; Freudian slip?)
- I go to college in NYC, and I’m getting a BA in Psych and a BFA in Photography.
- I live in Greenwich Village, on the same block as Anna Wintour. She looks really scary IRL.
- I have two jobs; I work in a restaurant and at my school’s begging-for-money-athon.
- All of my furniture is from Ikea.
- I’ve never broken a bone.
- I can neither ride a bike nor swim.
- I’m currently in a relationship with a pretty cool dude named Jon. We talk to each other in internet memes, and he goes to Ikea with me when I ask him to, and I thoroughly enjoy his cuddles.
- I like nearly every genre of music. I know I like things that aren’t really good music, but I’m okay with that. I will acknowledge what is good and not good, so whatever.
- I’ve always thought I didn’t have a favorite band, but it’s starting to look like my favorite band is the Mountain Goats. I’ve been to four of their shows (and have tickets to three more in the coming few months).
- I watch a lot of movies, and I collect DVDs compulsively.
- I think James Earl Jones looks weird with a moustache.
- I spell moustache with a u, and the place where you see a play is spelled t-h-e-a-t-r-e in my opinion, but I don’t spell anything else the British way.
- I’m a complusive over-sharer.
- I’m originally from St. Louis, Missouri, so I have this weird, competing Midwest-Southern dynamic that is only complicated further by the fact that my mom lives in Atlanta.
- My family is spread out all over the country - New York, Georgia, Texas, Missouri, California.
- My family is also really, really small. It’s me, my parents, and two older brothers, one of whom has contributed a sister-in-law and two nephews, but that’s pretty much it in terms of close relatives.
- I only met one of my grandparents.
- Favorite foods include Haribo Peaches, burritos, raspberries, piles of meat, toasted ravioli, gouda, and vegan cake.
- I’ve been to six European countries: France, Germany, Belgium, the Netherlands, Spain, and the Czech Republic.
- I want to get my MA in Human Sexuality and be a sex educator or sex and relationship therapist or something along those lines.
- I will happily offer up movie recommendations if you’d like.
- I’m pretty indecisive.
- I don’t think my high school had as much of an effect on me as my high school job did.
- I’m pretty good at Rockband (vocals only though - eye hand coordination is not my strong suit). I’m AWESOME at Beatles Rockband.
- I can be really judgmental, but I am usually pretty quiet about it.
- If you look outrageous, I will put you on my friends’ teams with no hesitation.
- I think you should follow Emily, Liz, Brooklyn, Jaime, Jet, and Laura.
I guess that’s about it for now. I love questions though, if there’s anything else you’re interested in knowing…
