summer twenty twelve

an introduction

The lovely lady seen on my userlookup is none other than the Korean singer IU. Go check out her music if you haven't heard it before. Then, be sure to neomail me and tell me what you think. ☺

Well, I don't know how you've managed to stumble across a page completely devoted to me, but since you're here,

I welcome you, notjaded.

This account, notjaded, was created as a response to the overwhelming culture of jadedness at my university, because life's no fun when you're a critic. I guess I should also mention that I started this account right after finals... Everything is beautiful, fantastic, fresh, and glorious after finals. I'm not jaded. I'm not jaded. I'm not jaded, I swear!

Please don't hesitate to give me feedback on this page, especially if anything sounds rather pretentious - like this sentence here. It's forever under construction. Click on the links, send me some crabby apples, and enjoy ~

pocky sticks, car radios, & lazy days

A FOREWORD. These are just some personal thoughts that I've chosen to share. Take them as you will. Knowing me, this will probably never get updated anyway.


» August 15, 2012 - Summer's winding down ~

» July 21, 2012 - Completely changed the direction of my gallery. Check it out!

» July 12, 2012 - Cool happenings.

» July 9, 2012 - Neopoints... quickly... depleting...

» July 4, 2012 - Happy 4th, 'merica. You know what that means... TACOS!!! That's not even a joke. I've been waiting for these 4th of July tacos for months. Anyway, I'm back from vacation and done with nearly every page! In non-Neo-related news, I have an interview this Friday for a receptionist position, haha. We'll see how that goes.

» June 29, 2012 - I figured I should make some progress on this page before going on vacation (tomorrow). FINALLY fixed all of the annoying CSS.

here's a snapshot

Call me Ishmael. Some years ago—never mind how long precisely—having little or no money in my purse, and nothing particular to interest me on shore, I thought I would sail about a little and see the watery part of the world.

- Herman Melville, Moby-Dick; or, The Whale


Unfortunately, my name's not really Ishmael, but you can call me that anyway. Having little or no money in my wallet, and nothing particular to occupy my time, I thought I would surf the web a little and re-experience the Neo part of the world. So here I am, eighteen years of age, back home for the summer, and still playing Neopets.

I'm actually writing this at work! (Heh, being a receptionist is the greatest job ever.) When I'm not working, I love to volunteer, eat, run, listen to kpop (favorites are 2NE1 and IU; check them out!), watch NBA, and get into car accidents. Oh, and I guess I should mention that I'm male, since we're such an endangered gender on this site.

Throughout the year, I'm split between the two coasts of the US - I go to a university in the Big Apple and go home to the West Coast for the summer. The West Coast is definitely better, if only for In-N-Out - just sayin'. I'm majoring in Neuroscience and will hopefully make it to medical school one day. I was an engineering major, until I realized that I didn't want to rot in the library all day long. (Seriously though, engineering is ridiculous.) I've always had a fascination for foreign languages but never had the guts to take any besides Spanish... so next year, I'm going out on a limb and taking Mandarin! Beyond excited!

Other things... I love eating Chipotle, Korean BBQ, and dried mangoes. Nothing excites me more than Harry Potter midnight premieres, Linsanity, and new episodes of Modern Family (and Breaking Bad and Game of Thrones). I don't like Lebron James. My favorite movies are probably Marley & Me, Slumdog Millionaire, and Zoolander. I can't live without air conditioning. And I miss my dog.
