FACTS!

1. Reading is fun.

2. Chitty Chitty Bang Bang was based on a novel written by Ian Fleming (the author of the James Bond series), and adapted for the screen by Roald Dahl. This makes me feel better about loving this movie.

3. I have a Bachelor's degree in Anthropology. I like to watch people, quietly, and from where they can't see me. Just kidding. I really just like to learn about the way that humans interact with each other and with our environment. Culture is fun!

4. Amprophophallus titanium, also known as the "corpse flower," only flowers once every few years, and when it does smells like rotting flesh. This one is totally irrelvant to me, but it's such a fun fact, I had to share.

5. In my seventh grade diary I declared that my life plan was to, "become a soccer and track star then a marine biologist then become an elementary school teacher and also get married and have kids as well." To this day, I have accomplished exactly none of those things. And, until recently, I felt like I had lost a lot of that passion and drive, but then I discovered permaculture, sustainable design, and urban planning. Now I'm back on my idealistic track to change the world.

6. In a later entry, I expound on my love for Elijah Wood. Basically, I believed we'd make a great couple because we have such similar interests like, "music and movies." Along with other things like breathing and blinking. I'm still waiting for him to IM me.
