ABOUT ME

recent college graduate, begrudgingly not reshaping my identity to adapt to professional life. Maybe "make it" as a celebrity of some sort, and do odd-jobs in the meantime.

Though "meantime" puns on "average" and "unkind"; Rather, I mean to minimize this.

PHILOSOPHY

high expectations; benefit of the doubt.
self-criticism, improvement.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

All sorts, mostly (so far) with friends established irl. Hoping to find a "virtual community," both in the sense of "online" and the sense of "nascent." Sometimes I feel like a child, looking at only one or two examples of human behavior, and acting either after this template, or inappropriately.

Interests

music, etymologies, world-historical punning.

I do aerial dance/circus acrobatics. I like to dance and make jokes.

Music, Movies, and Books

lydia davis, jm coetzee, saul bellow, vwoolf. i like books, it occurs to me that I can copy & paste tastes from my okcupid profile, but this seems somehow "un-literary."

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

2 many

Teach, Learn, Share

I like lit and history and theory,

I have also been a circus acrobat.

These are things i will teach/talk about if encouraged.

I like to learn about plants, although I often find it difficult to remember all the names. The experience of being told the names of plants still feels important.
