lots of things: seeing a movie. seeing a band. reading a book. road trips. working out. knocking back a beer at a pub. sitting in the park with friends. scouring through entertainment weekly the minute it arrives in the mail. being outdoors. maybe even watching sports! all that stuff.

Television
chuck. lost. brothers and sisters. grey's anatomy. the amazing race. project runway. friday night lights. gossip girl. heroes. kyle xy. MI-5. dexter. entourage.
Books
i really like children's literature. i believe that there is beauty in simplicity. stuff like the giving tree or the little prince - those are the classics.
Heroes
i find heroes everyday. random acts of generosity always make me smile. anyone who can bring positivity to others or inspire people is a hero in my book. the formula is quite simple - be real, open, positive, happy.
treehugger. intellectual. novelist.
artistic. down-to-earth.
ebullient. athletic.
somewhat of a geek. risktaker.
do-gooder. failed model. scenester.
1/2 introvert and 1/2 extrovert.
pop culture nerd. actor.
hot mess.
still figuring it all out.
but determined to keep going,
until there's nothing else in life left to try.
yep, that's me.
Who I'd like to meet: i prefer the company of people who have somewhat of a variety in life. someone who is comfortable doing all sorts of things. doing the same old, same old week in and week out gets boring, so ideally, i want to meet people who aren't afraid to try different things, get their hands dirty. if you can make me laugh or be enough a lovable dork to be endearing, that's a plus. and if you care about the world enough to dig in and make a difference, then you're my new best friend!
