My name is Eloise (Weezy, if you like). I study English Literature and Cognitive Science at Rutgers University.

Music, Movies, and Books

I could talk for hours about books, but my favorites (at the moment) include Old School by Tobias Wolff, Mrs Dalloway by Virginia Woolf, and The Bell Jar by Sylvia Plath.
For music, I LOVE the Beatles, anything to do with Eric Clapton, and many other 60s/70s era musicians.
Favorite film: Donnie Darko.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Conducted a project that blends literature with cognitive science, culminating in a 45 page research paper.
