    Melissa's Interests
GeneralOh thank God, two months off before anymore school. Greatly needed and appreciated.

I'm quite the artsy person (yet I definitely think with the logical side of my brain, not the emotional). I'm known to be a closet nerd (i.e. I try to hide my nerdiness, but it doesn't seem to work). I love music, reading, shopping, travel, history, languages, politics, animals, my family, my friends, and movies.

Some random interests:

I have a weird obsession with frogs and an unrealistic fear of anything with more than six legs.

I love the Indianapolis Colts and try to watch every game.

I don't like white foods, unless it is mayonnaise or milk.

I have an unhealthy love of video games.

Amazon.com is the coolest thing to come out of the 90's. Thank you for the Kindle.

Procrastination is my only true art form. I embrace it, and pride myself on being able to write a ten page paper in three hours and still get an A.

My fave possessions are my iPOD nano and my laptop (christened Howard II, as the Howard I was stolen by some asshole).

I seem to have developed a paranoia dealing with my mailbox. After all, I only get bills.

I like pens. Pens, highlighters, pencils, etc. I love writing utensils.

I love languages. I speak English, Spanish, and Japanese. I'm learning Chinese, Latin, and hopefully Arabic (soon). I'm a glutton for punishment.

MusicAyumi Hamasaki, Bad Religion, Jane's Addiction, Talking Head, Radiohead, The Cure, Billie Holliday, Miles Davis, Ray Charles, Dashboard Confessional, Nirvana, Oasis, 311, Finch, Sugarland, Delta Goodrem, Elvis, Evanescence, The Fray, Gym Class Heroes, Koda Kumi, Hard-Fi, OkGo, MC Solaar, Namie Amuro, Panic at the Disco, The Killers, PCD, Sarah Brightman, SHEDaisy, Vast, Utada Hikaru, Vienna Teng, and God knows how many others. I'll listen to just about anything that has a good beat and lyrics to match.

Mellowdrone, Mellowdrone, Mellowdrone.

XIII / Versus XIII - Game On
..

FFXIII and FFXIII Versus. That's all I have to say.
MoviesTons...The Bridget Jones' movies, Memoirs of a Geisha, The Big Lebowski, Goonies, Grandma's Boy, Lady and the Tramp, Pulp Fiction, Duets, Boondock Saints, all the Molly Ringwald cheesy 80's films, Love Actually, about 8 versions of Pride and Prejudice, Emma, American Pie movies, Wedding Crashers, The Importance of being Earnest...just about anything with Colin Firth or Brad Pitt, and maybe Sean Connery as well. A movie really has to suck for me not to like it (like Napolean Dynamite).

Transformers 2 soon!! Can't wait!

TelevisionGilmore Girls, ARMY Wives, Sex and the City, X-Files, House, No Reservations, Skins, True Blood, Entourage, Law and Order SVU, Daily Show, Colbert, Eureka, Dead Like Me, Burn Notice, the entire History Channel and Travel Channel line-up, John Doe, anything on Animal Planet, and of course... cartoons!

Yeah, Law and Order: SVU, and Burn Notice. At least, until Entourage, Skins, and TrueBlood return.

BooksI think I'll just list authors to make this quicker...Jane Austen, Joyce Carol Oates, Dan Brown, Elie Wiezel, A.S. Byatt, Toni Morrisson, Helen Fielding, Elizabeth Gaskell, Lauren Willig, Terry Pratchett, Moliere, Shakespeare, Vonnegut, and anything biographical or historical. I spend most of my free time reading, and try to read at least two books a week. My house looks like a library exploded.

Terry Pratchett is the god of literature, and Neil Gaiman is his hot stepbrother.

HeroesMy heroes are people that know what they want to achieve in their lives and let nothing get in the way of that. I hope that I can have that determination.

I also have a new hero... a pug that went skydiving. Little shit is much braver than I am. I want to go skydiving, but I'm acrophobic.

About me:
Photobucket



I enjoy being able to spend time with family and friends at a barbeque or a football game or just at someone's house watching movies. My favorite things to do at the moment are sitting by the pool with Jamie or arguing with Adrianna about everything and anything. That, or we're planing our awesome trip to Italy to see Laura (who we all miss so much and hope is happy with her family!).

I come from a military family--over half of my family has been or is in the military. I have a sister and a step-brother in the military now! Go ARMY and MARINES!

I'm a fledgling writer, with only two pieces published as of yet (it takes time, time, time). And soon a grad student. As well as an editor, who still works retail as life is expensive! I plan on getting my PhD and teaching history while I write, even though I think I'll be a better teacher than I am a writer. And then I hope to travel the world, visiting all my friends who are abroad.

Who I'd like to meet:
Anthony Bourdain, Angelina Jolie, Johnny Depp, Colin Powell, Christopher Walken, Maya Angelou, Nancy Pelosi, the Pope, Shinzo Abe, a really cool gay guy to go shopping with, a rich man who suddenly turns up with a DNA test claiming to be my father, etc. I love people who travel or make their opinions known. I can only imagine what it would be like to get to have a conversation with just one of those people (the last two are of course for my personal shopping benefits...)


Free Hugs!

"If u love me as a friend u'll read the whole thing. What would you do if for every moment you were truly happy there would be 10 moments of sadness? What would you do if your best friend died tomorrow and you never got to tell them how you felt? So, I just wanted to say, even if I never talk to you again in my life, you are special to me and you have made a difference in my life. I look up to you, respect you, and truly cherish you. Send this to all your friends, no matter how often you talk, or how close you are, and send it to the person who sent it to you. Let old friends know you haven't forgotten them, and tell new friends you never will. Remember, everyone needs a friend. dont ever leave the one u love for the one u like, because the one u like will leave u for the one they love. tonite ur true love will realize how much they love u between 1 and 4 in the morning. tomorrow the shock of your life will occur if u break the chain. you will have bad luck for 1 year, if you don't pass this on to 15 people. if u get this it means the person who sent it truly cares about you..."

If you wake up in a red room with no windows and doors, DON'T panic.. you're just in my heart!!! Send this to all the friends you want to keep forever...

Today is Bestfriend Day. Send this to all of your friends, and me if I am one. If you get 7 back you are LOVED!!! Here are the numbers of what kind of friend you are based on how many you get back..

1-2 ~ you're an okay friend
3-5 ~ you're a good friend
6-8 ~ you're a great friend
9+ ~ you're true friend""
