Plans and Factoids

The intent of this blog is to keep track of my movements across the county, and around the world. To plot a course for my growth as a person and as an individual part of the world's global mechanics. Let's start with the basics, even though probably no one is ever going to read this but me.

Factoids:
1 - I am 21 years, seven months, and eighteen days old as of writing this.
2 - I am leaving Seattle, where I have lived for six months and seven days. I currently occupy the Space Capsule, in the International District, with one roommate, who makes cookies a lot.
3 - I do! have a B.A., which makes me more qualified to do jobs than a lot of other people, apparently.
4 - I am a writer, or I used to be. I also used to be a singer. I'm calling this a starting-over because I am still young enough to do a completely personality rewrite. With the change of a location can come a change of mind.
5 - I am moving to New Jersey, to live in the house where I grew up. I won't say I am moving "back" because that implies a backwards shift, as if I have somehow failed -- which I have not. The economy, on the other hand, has.

Likes:
-The Decemberists, Death Cab for Cutie, Arcade Fire, Fiona Apple, The Killers, The Sounds, HelloGoodbye, Feist, among many, many others.
-Grapenuts with honey and plenty of milk, brown rice, curry, salad, cookies, chocolate pudding, and pie, but not cake.
-Making lists of things.
-Jack Kerouac

Dislikes:
-Taylor Swift, feminazis
-Blizzards in Seattle

Plans:
-Peace Corp by some random date in 2010
-MFA (Poetry or Literature) from Naropa before I die
-High-pressure, low-stress career in something entertaining so I won't get bored

Faults:
-Easily distracted
-Easily bored
-I require a lot of intellectual stimulation.

Bonus:
-Easily amused
-Easily engaged
-I require a lot of intellectual stimulation
