Music, Movies, and Books

Movies - Jeux D'Enfants, Trainspotting, Lord of the Rings, etc.

Music - Groove and melody

Books - I once wrote two term papers about Lord of the Rings, for separate classes. In a week. One of the classes was anthropology. I read lots of different kinds of fiction, but that's sort of my approach to it.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Solo camping in Oregon, complete with pre-dawn hike. I'm not necessarily special for doing this, but the event was.

Teach, Learn, Share

I have hands-down the single best method of tying shoes ever. A friend learned it from an old homeless woman on a subway in Taiwan. This is probably not the most interesting thing about me, but it's what comes to mind right now.
