it's a beautiful day
...in the neighborhood!
or
....don't let it get away!
take your pick, mister rogers or U2
To my absolute delight, Naima had a survey up on her site...brought me back to middle school/early high school days. And so like any decent nostalgist,(if 'nostalgist' isn't a word...well, I just made it one) I stole it (and changed around some of the questions for shits and giggles).
TEN RANDOM, PSEUDO-SECRET THINGS ABOUT ME:
10.) In the third grade, I wrote a story about a horse named Melody (I had an obsession with horses) and was picked to go to an annual writer's conference. I guess that's what makes me think I can still write [cue audience laughter]
09.) No matter how many lessons I endured as a child, and no matter how much my parents wish I could, I CANNOT GOLF.
08.) I really want to be able to go crazy on a drumset (and sound good)
07.) I'm ridiculously germaphobic
06.) I won the school spelling bee three years in a row (4th, 5th, 6th grade)......'Spellbound' is really a biopic of my adolescence (joke)
05.) My parents are pseudo-conservative and Christian, but I'm.......pretty much the polar opposite. (It makes for some lively conversation at the dinner table).
04.) I have a weird thing where after eating a lot of sweets, I need something salty or carb-ey to balance it out.
03.) Sometimes, I can actually enjoy the outdoors, and occasionally, I even like to rock-climb (don't pass out from shock, please)
02.) I fuckin love chardonnay
01.) When I was younger, I desperately wanted to be a dolphin trainer for a few months.
NINE PLACES I'VE VISITED:
09.) I’ve sat in a car through a good chunk of the U.S of A (to name a few states…Idaho, Montana, Wyoming, Ohio, Indiana, Maine, Nebraska) When moving, my dad thought it would be fun to drive from Alaska to NJ. It was two weeks of madness, but it's a good resource for memories.
08.) Canada (Edmonton, Vancouver, Toronto, Yukon)
07.) Mexico
06.) France
05.) L.A
04.) Seattle
03.) Colorado
02.) Alaska…if you consider me being from Jersey/the city
01.) Jersey/the city….if you consider me being from Alaska
EIGHT THINGS I WANT TO DO BEFORE I DIE:
08.) Visit the Andes and Everest with my dad
07.) Come out with a legit album
06.) The whole matrimony shindig.
05.) Travel the world a few times over
04.) Buy a $400 Hermes ashtray. Just because.
03.) LOTR extended dvd marathon (Julia, we’re doing this)
02.) Do good things for good people.
01.) Sky-dive
SEVEN WAYS TO WIN MY HEART:
07.) Not being afraid to be silly and/or awkward is a plus. Too cool for awkward school? That’s a big fat minus, my friend. Oh and I need to be able to be silly and/or awkward around you as well, without feeling like an arse.
06.) Be honest, because no one loves a filthy liar!
05.) Love the arts
04.) I need space…which leads to #3:
03.) Have a sense of self, man. Clingy behavior is suffocating.
02.) Gentleman-like behavior is a must
01.) Be my friend
SIX SONGS THAT DEFINE ME:
06.) “Simple Twist of Fate” - Bob Dylan
05.) “In A Sentimental Mood” - Duke Ellington
04.) “Suite: Judy Blue Eyes” - Crosby, Stills & Nash
03.) “Galileo” - Indigo Girls
02.) “Do What You Have To Do” - Sarah McLachlan
01.) “Piano Concerto No.2” - Rachmaninoff
FIVE FAVORITE SPOTS IN THE CITY:
05.) Caffe Reggio
04.) The Strand
03.) Jack’s Coffee
02.) Washington Square Park
01.) The Met
FOUR CHARACTER FLAWS:
04.) I’m stubborn. Really, I am.
03.) I can hold grudges for longer than you think
02.) Sometimes I can get obsessive
01.) Jealousy and I go waaaay back.
THREE AWESOME MOVIE LINES:
03.) Stewart: “Hello, you”
Hepburn: “Hello”
Stewart: “You look fine”
Hepburn: “I FEEL fine!” - The Philadelphia Story
02.) “This is what happens when you FUCK a STRANGER in the ass!!.” - The Big Lebowski
01.) “The blues are because you’re getting fat or because its been raining too long. You’re just sad, that’s all. The mean reds are horrible. Suddenly you’re afraid and you don’t know what you’re afraid of.” - Breakfast at Tiffany’s
TWO FUNDAMENTAL BULLETPOINTS FROM MY LIFE PHILOSOPHY:
02.) In general, I don’t trust people. There are VERY few people (if any) in my life who have gained my trust…I find that you don’t get hurt as much (or as severely) this way.
01.) Ideally, “love” only follows the word “unconditional”
ONE THING/PERSON YOU CRAVE AT THE MOMENT:
01.) PEACH BELLINI
