Going to the motherland (China) and learning to live with communism while applying to grad school in Comp Lit. That, or traveling through Southeast Asia. Or trying to convince some employer that my interest in German aesthetic theory is a “transferable skill.”

Neither. Gelato all the way, baby.

Flight—so I can get places faster.

I know all the words to “Semi-Charmed Life” by Third Eye Blind. Boy, I’m old. I can also recite Goethe drunk.

MySpace or Facebook? 

MySpace is too confusing, so Facebook. (Does anyone still remember CUCommunity, or whatever it was called??)

Joyce! German poetry turns me on!
