About
It is I. I is me. I'm a Peace Corps Volunteer. Which, if you've ever met one of us, or if you've ever met me, I suppose, means I am more then happy to blather on about it. But unless you ask, there will be little here. This here is for my short attention span and random moments. Have a happy potato day.

4. How do you deal with criticism?
It depends on a lot of things, realistically. Who’s criticizing me, what they’re criticizing me about, and what else is going on in my life emotionally. I like to think I deal with it well, generally, and usually I do. But when I don’t, man, I really don’t. When it comes to who’s doing the criticizing, I’ll handle it on the surface better if it’s someone I care about, but it’s far more likely to bug me later and eat away at me slowly, whereas if it’s someone I don’t care about I’ll take a moment to decide if it’s accurate, but possibly just ignore it because I don’t like them. If what’s being criticized is something I know I do and have already come to terms with then I kind of just shrug — because I don’t intend to change it necessarily. But if it’s something new then I’ll spend a good chunk of time first deciding if I actually do it, and when and then how I can fix it in a realistic way — or not change it, again, depending. And obviously if I’m already distraught then criticism tends to be more destructive then constructive, regardless of how it was intended.
11. Which fictional character would you most like to have lunch with and why?
The Doctor. Because you know I’d get dragged on an adventure, it couldn’t just be lunch. And even if it was, he must have so many amazing stories.
13. What’s your least “politically correct” opinion?
Haha. Other then my entire existence? I’d gotta say my belief that being PC is a load of bullshit. To quote Avenue Q “Everyone is a little bit Racist” and most other -ists too. Society has pretty much trained us for it. And I think some of the most hateful people I’ve ever met have been perfectly politically correct, and some people who are very politically correct take it to such a place that they don’t even understand the statement that being PC is supposed to be — that everyone is equal. Instead they spend too much emphasis saying everyone is the same. Equal does not equate to the same.
19. You’re an Action Movie Hero. What’s your weapon of choice and the line you scream when defeating your arch enemy?
According to this website: http://bdmonkeys.net/~chaz/battle.php
Rampaging through the steppes, swinging a vorpal blade, cometh Mir! And she gives a mighty howl:
“This one’s for you, mom! I shall make bloody music with your nation’s populace!!!”
But, of my own choice? I’d probably still say sword, because they’re badass, and I’d probably not manage to come up with something witty until the dude was dead, so it would probably end up being like “Well fuck you!” or “Die you bastard!” Yeah, not creative.

What do you like most about yourself?
I’d say my mind, my ability to think quick on my feet, figure out what’s going on most of the time from minor information, adjust to things, and keep myself entertained when I’m stuck somewhere for a long period of time. I like how adaptable I am.

Mother Gothel.
Someone you’d like to lock yourself in a tower with for 18 years:
Hm. That would kind of depend on when it started, like, if we’re talking 1 to 18, probably my mommy. But if we’re talking now until now + 18, then, hell, probably an author or an artist. Most likely an artist, I’d like to learn a new skill. I’m having trouble of thinking of anyone alive. XD Of course, if I was old enough then I’d probably want a doctor just in case I was going to die or something. And dude, if you were locked with someone over your first period and they weren’t someone you’d be comfortable with, like, if it was someone you admired? That shit would be awkward, yo. I’m probably over thinking this. I think I just don’t really want to be locked in a tower.
