God! I hardly ever visit dA anymore...I feel really bad, but I'm glad Jacob tagged me nonetheless.

So. Six things, eh? Here they are:

1) I love to cook. My mom doesn't like to, and therefore doesn't do it very often, so I pretty much took it upon myself to learn. A couple years ago, I bought an old 1950s cookbook at an antiques fair and practiced using that. I guess you could say, in that sense, that I'm self-taught. I'm not a gourmet or anything, but I know I'm good at making good, simple food (mashed potatoes in particular are my specialty).

2) I love redheads. A lot of people I've met don't see the sexiness in pale skin and freckles, but I do (oh, do I ever). There's a particularly delicious one who sits across from me in 20th Century Philosophy, and he's very distracting (Ah, Rory). Naturally, he's barely cognizant of my existence. But that's all right. I'm contented to glance furtively over at him whenever I can.

3) I'm really, really conservative about my social life. I don't like to do drugs, I only like to drink when I'm out having a meal, and even then I'll only have wine or a martini. Since I've been away at college, I've been introduced to the abominations that are light beer and malt beverages. Yeccch. I also don't hook up or fool around--I'm either (mostly) straight edge or really, really boring.

4) I hated The Life Aquatic. Y'know, the Wes Anderson movie with Bill Murray as the Jaques Cousteu rip-off? Haaaaaate. What a pointless waste of film. I think WA hasn't made a decent movie since Rushmore. Also, I hated Donnie Darko, which WA was not responsible for, but I disliked nonetheless.

5) I am so hungry right now.

6) I, much like Jacob, do not miss home very much at all. Especially not work.
