As you can see by my list of potential majors, it's probably easier to list the things that I'm NOT interested in than the things that I AM interested in.  To spare you all, just talk to me in the fall for more information or talk to me online if you just can't wait :)

I plan on going to lots of jazz clubs around town, but I like all types of music: two-tone and trad ska like toots & maytals and the specials, although ska-punk like opivy is great; love some easy rap/hip-hop like tribe called quest; can definitely work with some good trip-hop, d'n'b, and house; DEFINITELY jam bands; funk of course; good hippie 60s beatles dylan stones janis jimi etc; classical; weezer/radiohead get a category of their own, mostly cause of the fan base; helluva lot of flecktones and most especially the legendary Medeski Martin & Wood. beastie boys, pink floyd. plenty of things.Also plan on going to sporting events, notably Cubs, Fire, Kane County Cougars (A team in Geneva IL), and Wolves (damn good minor league hockey team that plays in the city). Play all sports, but would be especially interested in playing soccer, ultimate, lacrosse, baseball, tennis (or other raquet sport) or any hand-foot combo game (rugby, aussie rules, or gaelic football, etc) with those interested. I love games like go, chess, d&d, and diplomacy. I've always done lots of theate. Am pretty upfront about things and easily adapt to new situations. Of course very interested in anything that remotely falls under any of the possible majors listed above (and if asked i could probably name about 20 more possibles). Very much enjoy good conversations with good people while chilling to some really good music.

I'm really looking forward to Chicago...been stocking up on things for my dorm room, and even pre-planning autumn trips to IKEA for postmodern Swedish diy furniture.

How're y'all doin? I'm the GUY in the picture, just an FYI... but yeah. That's actually how we dress for prom, not just me. I'm into theater, singing, playing my geetar (though not very well) and reading... and i'm not sure what else to say. But hey. Drop me a line.
