About me

Gender Female
Industry Arts
Occupation Purveyor of elegant wares, Instructor of language, wordsmith extraordinaire
Location Fort Wayne, IN, United States
Introduction An off the wall, crazy, half bent millenial. I idealize characters in the books I read, have emotional almost spiritual experiences every time I listen to music, and very opinionated about the things I find most important. Passionate about refugees and their rights and integration, international affairs, and social issues at home and abroad. Speak 3 languages, swear like a mother fuckin' sailor, and half the time I feel like I was born in the wrong damn place.
Interests Reading, writing, music, texting more than I should, history, culture, sociology to some degree, journalism, philosophy, religion, coffee, junk food, XBox 360, PS3, Foreign cinema/music/books
Favorite Movies Gone With The Wind, Dr. Zhivago, Ben Hur, Les Parapluies de Cherbourg, Gegen Die Wand, Vitus, pretty much anything classic Hollywood or anything Foreign, especially if I speak the language it was shot in
Favorite Music Question of the hour! If it's German or Japanese, you have my attention. Favorites are as follows: All time: Boston, Hanson, Savage Garden, Darren Hayes, AFI, Tokio Hotel, Acht, The Cure, Joy Division, Journey, Dan Fogelberg, Cat Stevens, Jim Croce (grew up on the classics...that's music that shaped me as a person I'm telling you) Genres: Classic Rock, Goth rock, Punk rock, Japanese Vis-kei, Heavy Metal, Symphonic Metal, Classical, Pop music (random as shit i know), lots of German music, regardless of genre, and the occassional rap song. The list of everything I like is way too goddamn long. If you like any of the genres I listed, I bet anything we'll be best friends.
Favorite Books Gone With The Wind, Jane Eyre, Perfume, Wicked, Watchmen, V for Vendetta, 1984, Brave New World, Beowulf, Valley of the Dolls, The Bell Jar, and a shit load of others I can't be arsed to remember.
