About Me

About Me

I don’t like to capitalize the first letters of sentences, and I often use too many parentheses, but I almost always stay true to MLA formatting.

Also: I write ‘Life According to Ginger’, in the college section of Sparknotes.

What I Like

Favorite Books

Pretty much anything by the above. Also: The Count of Monte Cristo, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, the Harry Potter series, A Tale of Two Cities, Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy, the Perks of Being a Wallflower

Favorite Movies

At the moment? Hard Candy, Mean Girls (of course), The Princess Bride, Zombieland, Fargo, Space Jam, Inglorious Basterds, etc

Favorite TV Shows

Firefly, Community, Pretty Little Liars. Oh, and I watch Glee, but mostly because I feel obligated to.

Favorite Music

most of it, I guess. With the exception of country and about 97% of heavy metal, I listen to pretty much everything. That doesn’t really tell you much… so I’ll say that I have soft spots for Leonard Bernstein, the xx, Florence and the Machine, Jenny Owen Youngs, Earl Greyhound, Maximum the Hormone, The Killers, Gene Harris, The Who, Modest Mouse, RHCP, Oscar Peterson, the Strokes, Aretha Franklin, Beethoven, Tegan and Sara, Laura Marling, Grace Potter and the Nocturnals, K. Flay, Ella Fitzgerald, the Arctic Monkeys, AND I HAVE TO STOP NOW. Don’t ever start a conversation with me by asking me what my favorite band is, because I’ll never stop talking.

Favorite Quotes

Consider the lilies of the goddamn field.
