Favorite Movies

Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind. I like Michael Gondry most of the time. James and the Giant Peach. Big Fish. I like the less spooky Tim Burton stuff. Pan's Labyrinth. Guillermo del Toro, really. Though, I wasn't very impressed with the Hellboy stuff. The Harry Potter films are pretty wonderful. I like fantasy when it's pretty and when isn't cheesey. Like the rest of the world, I like comic book movies. Honestly, I really like Judd Apatow too.

Favorite Television

Some Adult Swim stuff. Firefly. The Twilight Zone. Usually anything on The History Channel interest me. Freaks and Geeks. I don't know, not owning a television set has put me off it a bit. I don't think television is the devil. In fact, it can be used for good if only you'd try.

Favorite Music

GYPSY JAAZZZ! Iron and Wine, Eisley, Pavement, Beirut, Joy Division, Anything Jack White does, Gogol Bordello, The Toadies, Cursive, The Kooks, Damien Rice, The Stooges, Manchester Orchestra, Most '78 Punk, A lot of early 90s hip-hop, A lot of classical and instrumental music can be pretty dull, but I really love anything by Schoenberg and Shostakovitch. I like Bright Eyes, The Hush Sound, and Cake.

About Me

Generally, hmm.... I'm a college freshman at the University of New Mexico. I'm majoring in Psychology and Studio Art. I've been considering changing my second major to philosophy or film. I am 18. I love to read, and I love film. I really love learning. I like visual art. Beards. Bears. Worthwhile books.. Flowers, fairies and butterflies.Mermaids. Museums. Pomegranates. Films. Spanish. I'd really like to visit South America. Soon. I like flowy hair. Picnics. Camping. Astronomy. I enjoy abnormalities. I tend to be a bit reclusive, but I love good conversation. I've recently began studying philosophy and I enjoy it a lot.

Other things.

Despite my solemn demeanor, I'm pretty cheery. I respect people who are happy despite all odds. I respect people who do what they want, despite societal/personal constrictions. I don't like things that are uniform or mainstream. I like original art. I like to travel, though I haven't done enough of it. I like Socrates, and I like art nouveau. Alphonse Mucha, Vincent Van Gogh, Edward Gorey are my visual art heroes. I don't like people that are considerably normal because they don't think, and I don't like people who complain. I LOVE BEARSDZSFDSS.

Favorite Books

I love books quite a bit. J.D. Salinger and F. Scott FItzgerald will always have a place in my heart, or at least until I've left my disassociated youth phase. I like comic books but I hate Marvel stuff.
I love romantic poets. Hmm, hmm. I like books.

enter title...

I like deep colors, things that are handmade, raspberries, things that are real and coconut. I hate things that are ugly, I hate things that are tacky and I hate things that are synthetic. I don't really like things that are cute, but kawaii stuff can be neat sometimes.
