i am a wonderful and epic failure at writing about me's, possibly because i don't like talking about myself.
i'm 20 and in my third year of studies at the university of toronto, where i study english lit and book/media studies (this program, best thing since sliced bread, just saying). so needless to say i read, write, the whole shebang mainly because i have to but also because i love doing it.
and now for something completely different! well, not really, but i'm annoyed at having to write boring stuff about me so i'll throw out some random facts...
what i like: laughing, reading, writing, staring absently out windows, bird watching, post-it notes, playing at the park, trees, british comedy, german comic books, being a goofball, harry potter, my pet fish (rip merlin, i miss you), robin hood, waffles, traveling, a good party, accents, school (minus exams), my laptop (which is named ryley), soccer, hockey, canada, switzerland, music of all genres (except country) <3
what i'm not too fond of: morning subway commutes, repeating myself, slush, beer, football, victorian realism novels, cold, twilight, freud, pain, traffic, people touching my stuff, soap operas, deadlines, beowulf (great epic poem, but having to translate it killed it for me), spam, not having enough room in my bookcase for all my books.
**note: i don't enjoy swaps, end of story. i'll find something to read on my own.
parting thought:
"i don't want to wax philosophic, but i will say that if you're alive you've got to flap your arms and legs, you've got to jump around a lot, for life is the very opposite of death, and therefore you must at very least think noisy and colourfully, or you're not alive."
