This weekend was supposed to mark my newest resolution to start being a more normal, well-adjusted (read: not misanthropic) college student and maybe actually venture outside of my dorm, but, my efforts were quashed by ABC Family's Harry Potter Movie Weekend. Let's be honest, I wasn't really going to go through with my pledge to be all sociable and "try new things," and whatnot. I've been making that same half-hearted resolution for the last two and a half years, but deep down I'm just too lazy/apathetic to actually do anything about it. The truth is, I like watching Harry Potter alone in my room on a Saturday night. Maybe not as much as I would enjoy watching Harry Potter with my close friends and family on a Saturday night, but certainly more than I would enjoy playing beer pong and dancing to Miley Cyrus with a bunch of strangers wearing cowboy boots and J. Crew sundresses. So, to recap: solitude + Harry Potter > drunk strangers + Miley Cyrus. For those of you who have trouble with math (I'm talking to you, Mom), the ">" symbol means greater than.
I could say I'll try again next weekend, but that's most probably a lie. It's just not me. Call me socially stunted if you will, but I prefer the term "independent spirit."

About Me:
I am a twenty-three-year-old graduate of the University of Virginia. I don't believe in "hobbies," so I spend my time watching an unhealthy amount of television, rereading my favorite books, and practicing for my exciting future career as a professional recluse. My favorite things are Christmas, the Oscars, and Joss Whedon.
