You'll find me jamming out to some Debussy, John Rutter or Bartok.
I give lectures about twentieth century music to innocent listeners.
I analyze the hymns I sing.
I analyze everything I listen to.
I hear people say "I love music."
I don't think those people actually understand how to love music like I do.
I'm a bit of an oddity.
I rock out to Beethoven while I work out and read biographies of Prophets while I ride the bike.
If it's 10:30 at night and you happen by my apartment, there is a really good chance that I'm in bed.
I like my showers to scald.
Sometimes I turn it up as high as it will go and then sit down in the corner and let myself steam. I feel like I'm marinating.
I snort when I laugh.
I talk in my sleep.
Sometimes I cry about food.

I don't know if I've ever met anyone like me.
I like to get dressed up in classy clothes and look pretty.
I also like to grunge down in my PG gym shorts.
Getting a job on campus that has required me to dress professionally is the best thing that ever happened to me.
Sometimes I go to my roommates rehearsals because I love watching a musical come together.
I'm not a drama person.
But I know quite a lot about theater.
Sometimes I get sad for no explicable reason. It's ok. That's life.

Amanda says she loves me for it because my emotions are there for everyone to read and it makes me more compassionate and loving.
I wish I wasn't such an open book.
I like to think of myself as a complex, complicated puzzle piece. I have some jagged edges, some gaping holes. I can get along with almost everyone, but I think that it will take a special someone to become my other half.
I'm not going to settle for someone who I'm just compatible with. Someone who just pays attention to me for three weeks and then moves on. I deserve to be with someone who understands every aspect, facet and crevice of my complicated self and loves me all the more for each small characteristic that I possess.
I have a dream of my life. I dream of a husband and children. But in the meantime, I am more than content to learn about myself, to discover the wonderful things that I have to offer and to develop those qualities that I'm developing.

I like who I am.
And someday there will be a special someone
Who will like who I am too.
Who will like who I am too.
