You see many things through the eyes of a child.
Meaning, you're rarely cynical or jaded.
You cherish all of the details in life.
Easily fascinated, you enjoy experiencing new things.
Whether you're an official student or a casual learner, you enjoy hitting the books.
You know a little bit about everything, and you're always dying to know more.
For a guy to win your heart, he's got to share some of your intellectual interests.
A awesome book collection of his own doesn't hurt either!

Who I'd like to meet: Intellects and vibrant artists and writers, thinkers and dreamers of my time, to pick their brains. Anyone who is basically kind to other human beings is okay in my book.

We should get together, totally. I'm going to find out by Friday if I'm in Kent, and have an interview for a GSA position in the Special Collections there on Friday (no tuition funding, but 8.15/hr is better there than at BestBuy). I'm going to my mom's this weekend, but will be back next week, so we should go do something and catch up. Do you still do Movie Mondays?
hello beautiful friend of mine sorry so late saying this had my hands full wit skye another ear infection gonna wind up having surgery to get tubes in her ears no fun but i love you to death and happy birthday!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
:D yes, for now it's 'i've passed my comps.' xD Still haven't figured out how to celebrate....maybe I'll wait until everyone else gets the results from their medieval essays and finds out what they got to really have at the celebration
I should be in the FC working on my 8mm conversion to DVD project Monday and Tuesday....probably Wednesday too...and I work all day Saturday, if you'd like to come in during the afternoon and I can skip out for a quick lunch? I'm assuming since you're dropping off the photo books, you got through them? :D
ha, thanks, you could say that....I'm giving Alex's cats back over break...he's pissed, but it's a long story and he can bite me. perhaps we can catch up some time. I'm here all week except thursday and friday. Hope you're doing well too!
Greetings from Sussex, and I thank you for adding my name to your list of "friends." Perhaps you will be interested to hear that my literary agent, Ms King, has cajoled me into participating in a program she is calling "Fifteen Weeks of Bees," which will tie together the fifteenth anniversary of our first collaboration, The Beekeeper's Apprentice, and the publication of our newest venture in May, The Language of Bees. Appropriately, "Fifteen Weeks" will join my efforts on MySpace with hers on her web site and blog. Please join us starting on February 1.
Ugh, comps...it's nice to have people to study with though. someone to keep you on a deadline. the website for the Canton show is: http://www. kimonoexhibit. com/ I'm free (or should be) next Thursday afternoon, or Friday, if you'd like to carpool. hope you're doing well too!
Yeh, I stayed inside yesterday...took me 10 minutes to clean off my car, and 50 to get to campus...there's a Japanese Kimono exhibit at Canton Art Museum...wanna' go sometime?
