About Me

CURRENT MISSION

ABOUT ME

I am 25.
I like wine with meals, mint juleps, hard boiled fiction, summer dresses, wearing sunscreen, collecting.

I love film, I want to learn guitar, eBay is a weakness. Cooking, baking, imbibing: all my thing.

I laugh pretty easily, I function well in new environments and I always, always carry paper & a pen.

PHILOSOPHY

Use what you can, can what you can't.

Music, Movies, and Books

I liked Jean Epstein's "amour fidele" which I saw with a now sadly estranged friend, Jakub from Denmark during our stay in Paris.
One of the most enjoyable books to read is Alexander Dumas' The Three Musketeers, I love that old way of talking.
I'll probably never finish, or comprehend upon finishing, Thomas Pynchon's V. Speaking of V, i love True Blood the t.v. series if only for the sassy and absurd one-liners.

Shakespeare wrote: Brevity is the soul of wit.
