may-may: the ultimate connoisseur of cute
random trivia about me:
1) my boyfriend is the most amazing person i have ever known.
2) when i was a baby, i had curly, light brown hair
3) i really love my new ipod touch... seriously, you don't understand.
4) i have a weakness for alarmingly handsome men in wool coats
5) i don't deserve to have such nice skin, because i constantly abuse it and take it for granted
6) i turn purple when i drink alcohol.. it's not pretty
7) i hate the term "wife-beater" and refuse to buy that type of tank top until the term is changed or at least is acknowledged that it is FUCKED UP
8) i think anyone who listens to western music should own a copy of Miles Davis' Kind of Blue and Radiohead's Ok Computer.
note: i reserve the right to refuse any friend request that comes my way. i also reserve the right to erase you from my friends list if you piss me off or annoy me in anyway. please proceed accordingly.
people say that i can come off as standoffish, cold, or aloof... the truth is.. i'm just a big, sad sap. i cry anytime i see a wedding.. in real life, in a movie, on a tv show, sometimes just looking at pictures of brides... i just cried watching a scene from "the chronicles of narnia." yes, that is how big of a sap i am
if you want to find me on any given night... search for the best music show going on in l.a.... i'll probably be there. all of my life's earnings have gone and will continue to go to watching live music. i am a slave to any artist that has the talent to perform well live. while we're on the subject matter... i want to have babies with brad mehldau.
a pet peeve of mine are myspace pages that have like 800 videos, a 10,000 pictures and 6000 songs playing each time they load... cause, btw... they crash my computer!! and to those of you who have one... i hate you.
one of my favorite daily activities is to look at hot people (girls, mostly) on myspace and then try to figure out which of these said people's profiles are actually real. i don't believe half of you.
if you get my weird, obscure movie references or like dark, dry humor... you and i will get along just fine. if you don't at least respect radiohead as artists, i doubt we will ever really be friends
btw, if you're one of those guys who likes to "collect" asian girl profiles (i.e. all of your myspace friends are asian girls, and there are like 1000 of them)... DON'T request me, you fuck.
"most people do not like to be controlled, criticized, told what to do, told who they are, told how/what/why they are thinking and doing what they are, and so on. most people want to be able to have a say in their own life, and they want to be liked and accepted for who they are"..
Who I'd like to meet: a. the kid on the right: psst... i met him
b. people who know who Brad Mehldau and Jon Brion are...
c. people who know how to use the word "you're" as opposed to the word "your"
heya, keep forgetting to ask, let me know if your friend at viz or bandai can get a decent hookup on naruto stuff, manga or dvds, they don't seem to be getting any cheaper on eBay and retail for manga is ridiculous. Thanks ^^
Hi my love. How are you? I am so sorry that I didn't get with you over the holiday's. It was a "Mad House" around here. As much as I hate excuses, that's the one I have. Sorry....:-( How is life for ya?
