CURRENT MISSION

To learn Mandarin.

ABOUT ME

Usually I find that when people make broad, general statements about themselves, it's not actually how they ARE but how they'd like to be perceived. So I'm an intelligent, reliable, diplomatic, and forward thinking young American. With lots and lots of money. Sometimes I can be sarcastic.

PHILOSOPHY

The early bird catches the worm, but the second rat gets the cheese.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've hijacked a friend's couch a few times. Limited damage was sustained.

兴趣

Books, movies, friends, manga, and conversation in which I am not held personally accountable for my country's foreign policy decisions. I know the Iraq War and global warming are my fault, but I draw the line at being held responsible for Paris Hilton.

音乐、电影和书籍

Movies: cult movies, action movies, independent films, comedies, dramas, etc.

Music: I don't listen to much music. I like groups like Cake, Smashing Pumpkins, Nirvana, and The Weepies. I'm not a fanatic though, sorry.

Books: Typically I veer away from high literature, but I enjoy satires and sci-fi. I practically eat science fiction and fantasy novels (not just quality books, I read crap too. Actually, it's mostly crap). Sometimes, through no fault of my own, my novel choices do veer into the realm of actual literature, but I assure you it is entirely by accident. My favorite authors include Orson Scott Card, Steven Brust, Neil Gaimen, and sometimes Terry Prachet.
