I'm trying to turn over a new leaf and answer all polls with peaceful answers, even the hateful ones; however, Rome was not built in a day.

I'm a pretty easy going gal. I enjoy hot jasmine green tea and reading Vogue and Glamour magazine. I'm usually pretty calm, but assertive.

Well, I wish I could have met Elliott Smith :(

Student government, working out, and I spend the rest of my time studying. I don't have time for a life.

Politics, music, yoga

Elliot: [to Dr. Kelso]
"You know, when I was a kid, I got a sunburn like that and just peeled all the skin off, put it in a pile, and ate it."

"I regret that I am not clear as to what you intend by arisch. I am not of Aryan extraction: that is Indo-Iranian; as far as I am aware none of my ancestors spoke Hindustani, Persian, Gypsy, or any related dialects." --J. R. R. Tolkien (Letters, no. 29, 25 July 1938, responding to a German publisher who was inquiring about the possibility of printing a German translation of The Hobbit)
