if you're on facebook, you know by now the cult of "25 things you didn't know about me!". if you're not, please don't get one. facebook will take over your life and it will be horrible.
for the uninformed, 25 things you don't know about me is a note that you write about yourself...hopefully you have 25 interesting things to fill up the entry. so i was procrastinating yesterday, and i wrote one. i figured i'd post it here, too, just for fun.
drumroll, please!
a list. by ellen.
1. i really hate wearing pants. i don't think they're comfortable at all. which is why i love leggings. i wear them as often as i can. i like to think i look like a hipster.
2. i really love sunglasses. they make me feel glamorous.
3. I wish i was really into music and could tell you about this really cool indie band i love. i'm usually listening to the other people talking about great music, write the bands down, and go listen to them. it's how i earn my street cred.
4. i take my moleskine with me almost everywhere i go. i make lists, plan things, write important/funny things down. it's how i remember all the stupid stuff my friends say. ex, they WOUND their enemies (pronounced like winding thread)
5. i'm really proud of what i did in london.
6. i like to have life chats with mary joan negro. she gives me the courage to do the things that i want to do, deep down.
7. i really wish i was good at photography.
8. i think i am independent, to a fault.
9. onetime one of my "dear mr. president" letters was posted on mcsweeney's. it was one of my proudest white people moments.
10. the quote in the little box on my wall is from the website "stuff white people like". i'm not that self absorbed.
11. i really want to live my life doing theatre. i want to act badly. and i want to be an artistic director someday too. and i want to be good.
12. i love roofs with views.
13. i feel very silly filing this out.
14. my mom thinks i'm REALLY organized and that i manage my time well. i don't know where she got this idea. i mean, she used to live with me. and i'm filling this thing out.
15. if my parents get facebook, i'll freak.
16. i want to live in LA after i graduate. I like this city a lot, and I just started going out and seeing it.
17. i want to move to chicago and work in theatre after i graduate.
18. i'll go wherever hires me after i graduate, which might happen at the end of the fall.
19. i hate how women my age hate feminism. you're where you are now because of feminism, ladies. i don't know where this idea came from, that feminists have to hate men and not shower. i'm a girl. i dress up. i like being treated equally. i'm a feminist.
20. i'd love to marry someone tall, so i can wear heels.
21. i'm really glad i'm from the midwest.
22. i think south america is a wonderful place. i really want to go back.
23. i miss my friends and family when i'm gone, but i'm really terrible at staying in touch.
24. i hate my class on don quijote. probably becuase we don't talk about don quijote in class. we talk about los angeles and sci fi novels. it's making the experience of reading it...terrible.
25. i wish i had been in america when barack obama was elected.
