Trying to Stay Awake

25 Things You Always Wanted to Know about Me (AKA I'm bored and trying to stay awake):

1. I am an extremely heavy sleeper and have trouble waking up to alarms. Or anything really... please don't draw on me...

2. I have a secret love for theater, and the performing arts in general.

3. My biggest desire in life is to be a creative muse and try to enjoy family and art and love and all life has to offer.

4. I got a pretty scarily high SAT score. I also got into colleges you probably wouldn't think I got into.

5. I'm a vegetarian but I eat meat when I crave it or when I'm so poor I have to eat off the dollar menu or something. My favorite meat is pepperoni.

6. I once had an allergic reaction to morphine in the hospital and my fever got up to 106.3 or something crazy and I was completely out of it. Like no drug ever could capture that sort of delusional realm.

7. I have a poor immune system but I think it's getting better after living in NYC.

8. I no longer want to move back to NYC. I want to stay in CT for awhile and sort things out.

9. My favorite mode of transportation is train.

10. I recently developed an obsession with the Strokes, the Beatles, "Layla" by Eric Clapton, Patti Boyd (the most beautiful muse ever), and the song "Get Me Away From Here I'm Dying" by Belle & Sebastian.

11. I secretly want to get a Doctorate degree. Not sure in what yet. I don't like to think about it in case I can't afford it.

12. I dropped out of college despite having an awesome GPA to wait til I can pay for it myself and not depend on other people.

13. I sometimes wonder if I will always be attracted to musicians. I think it may be starting to fade, but I've really never known anything else, as someone pointed out, and it is weird to think of a boyfriend who doesn't know a thing about music. And the ugliest dude could pick up a guitar, learn a pretty song, and get laid. It just makes people hotter. I think this is really just vain immaturity though. I will probably grow out of it, in fact probably pretty soon.

14. I miss working with kids.

15. Top 2 Hottest Celebrity Men Ever Right Now: Julian Casablancas (singer from the Strokes) and Ed Westwick (Chuck Bass, Gossip Girl). That guy from Across the Universe is hot too.

16. I secretly wish I was a musician but I just don't got it in me.

17. I have really bad anxiety but I don't show it too often anymore.

18. I believe a lot in astrology. Or at least I find it eerie.

19. I always wanted school uniforms as a kid. Wanted to go to Catholic school. Church. Take private lessons. I was a goody2shoes.

20. I sometimes twitch and act like I'm very sick to get a seat by myself on trains and subways. And buses. Especially buses. I love those single seats.

21. I'll probably remember your shoe size if you told me 5 years ago but I won't remember the last time we hung out or what I ate for breakfast.

22. I have surprisingly high self esteem, really. Which is weird because I had the worst self esteem until like... I don't know when it changed. Relatively recently. I am quietly cocky.

23. I really want to learn how to be more social. I suck at talking.

24. I'm scared of rodents. Like, really, really scared of rodents.

25. I rode an elephant a few times and a llama and a camel.
