I'm a [[writer]]. I work for the state, full-time and am also a student at FSU. I'm graduating this fall and applying to [[grad school]] for a joint degree in women's studies and law MA/JD.
I'm trying to stay open to new possibilities even though I'll be moving away from Tallahassee by the end of 2008.
Those whom know me best would say I'm incredibly social and outgoing, [[humorous]], the life of the party, yet I'm really somewhat of a [[lap dog]]. I enjoy going out to things, but I would prefer to stay home with my significant other. Girlfriend sounds so elementary and yet I'm not quite sure country-saloon terminology is any better.
I'd prefer not to put out too much effort here, as to not suggest that my social and romantic potential depends on online dating services.

[[Aimée & Jagüar]] is a fantastic lesbian film. Every lesbian should see this. An actual depiction of the more complex and often times emotionally imbalanced roles assumed in the difficulties of "other"ness. I have a bit of a personal parallelism between a past relationship of mine and that of Lilly & Felice.
Do Rent this.
[[The Well of Loneliness]] I found this an excellent novel, however groundbreaking, it's also heartbreaking, the honor Hall suggests in Stephen's sacrificial martyrdom... Stephen was a coward, justifiably... still, I'd hope never to act similarly or have someone act as such on my behalf.
Two influential exes were very fond of [[Wuthering Heights]], which I'm currently reading. I'm interested in what parallels I might find between my former relationships and their connections with the text and myself. I'm [[nerdy]] like that.
I suppose I should elaborate on films and music, as they're a large part of my makeup. Highl
"What I'm Doing With My Life" I'm passionate about [[literature]] and women's studies. At the moment I'm wading through options for potential grad schools. I believe I've found the perfect place... we shall see.
"I'm Really Good At" [[Helping others]] succeed. I [[love people]] and assume the best of others and am far harsher on myself than those whom I care for. Yet, being what I feel is abnormally [[self-aware]], I'm working on the self-criticism and slowing down. I'm certainly trying to slow down. I'm a bit intense at times. My friends say I delight over the simplest things. I'm just naturally [[enthusiastic]] and fascinated by details... I love the details of life... details and possibilities. :)
I'm terribly generous.
"The Most Private Thing I'm
Willing To Admit Here"
Socially
I'm extroverted and
confident... relationship wise: i am
quite timid, though I'll try to
hide how nervous you make
me... it only means you've gotten
close enough for me to be
vulnerable... though i fear it, to
me, vulnerability is the most
beautiful thing shared
between women... [[vulnerability and
intimacy]].
"You Should
Message Me If"
...if you feel
we'd have connected (if we'd
ever met) in the material world
(that phrase immediately made
me think of madonna and the
police. oh 80s).
...if you'd
like a side-kick or a partner
in crime :)
