ABOUT ME

I'm an idealist, an open-minded young person. I'm naturally curious. There's a lot that I have experienced of the good and bad, and a lot that I look forward to experiencing.

PHILOSOPHY

The only things that matter are what matters to you. I don't believe in confining yourself to social norms [at least not all the time] and you should really prioritize the things in your life, find what means the most and live true to them.

Music, Movies, and Books

Memoirs of a Geisha, Shortbus, Girl Interrupted, James and the Giant Peach, Disney movies, Rent, The Brave One, The Darjeeling Limited.. horror movies, independent film, romances - they're usually what I opt to see. I'd rather watch stand up before I pick a 'comedy' out at theatres though.

I listen to anything and everything, enjoy most of it.

Favorite books are Lolita by Nabokov, East of Eden by Steinbeck, almost anything by Pahluniuk or Eugenides. Nora Roberts on occasion. I like memoirs as well. I'm still a sucker for grandly illustrated children's books and.. magazines. From National Geographic to Maxim to Elle.
