Bio

26-year-old, addicted to TV, movies, books, gaming, travelling, and Mountain Dew. Currently working on a Master's Degree in English Lit. Because I want to be rich and famous.

Friending: I don't mind anyone friending me. Please, though, unless we know each other from someplace else, or have a lot of mutual friends or something, comment somewhere letting me know how you found my journal, stuff like that. Otherwise, it's kinda weird. I'll probably check your journal out, may or may not friend you back...I'm moody like that. If I know who you are, I'll probably reciprocate. But almost all of my entries are public anyway, so you wouldn't be missing much.

Currently reading, actively: Vanity Fair by William Makepeace Thackeray
Books I love: The Chronicles of Narnia by C.S. Lewis, Foucault's Pendulum by Umberto Eco, Snow Crash by Neal Stephenson, Catch-22 by Joseph Heller, Jane Eyre by Charlotte Bronte, Pattern Recognition by William Gibson, Crime and Punishment by Fyodor Dostoevsky, Tender is the Night by F. Scott Fitzgerald
TV shows I love: BtVS, AtS, Wonderfalls, Firefly, Get Smart, X-Play, The Dick Van Dyke Show, Farscape, My So-Called Life, Sports Night, Veronica Mars, House, The Amazing Race
Movies I love: Rear Window, Casablanca, West Side Story, Shakespeare in Love, The 400 Blows, Chariots of Fire, The Princess Bride, Singin' in the Rain, Stage Door, Amelie, Run Lola Run
Currently playing: Rock Band, Call of Duty 4, GTA: San Andreas
Games I love: Deus Ex, Knights of the Old Republic, Grim Fandango, Midnight Club 2 and 3, The Elder Scrolls: Oblivion, Call of Duty 2

I'm an INTP/J. Which means I'm introverted, think with my head instead of my heart, and walk a fine line between needing structure and needing flexibility. It also means I'm likely to be very precise and want to correct people's grammar and punctuation. Yes, I am a Grammar Nazi, but I'm starting to recover. Personality tests are so much fun.
