About
Time to actually put some effort into this thing. Which essentially runs the risk of being a too long didn't read. I would like to pretend that this is because I am an intrinsically complex person. Although I imagine it is more a case of me being a dreadfully simplistic person. After all as anthropologist J. W. Powell once asserted "it is a characteristic of the languages of savages that many words are necessary to express their thoughts." While I disagree with the principles of evolutionism, for they are dreadfully ethnocentric and lacking, I do find this assertion describes me quite well! surprised Although enough of my self directed jabs, for now at least.I am quite interested in sociocultural anthropology. Included in this are the politics of identity, social stratification, marginalization and to a lesser degree theory. Although I am going into the direction of interests now, as opposed to making a biography. As for who I am as a person, I think the term emo is quite fitting.
By emo I refer to a person who experiences emotions above and beyond what is socially acceptable of a person in their situation. Indeed while I can get quite upset at times, have strong self loathing and self esteem issues, there is nothing in my life which legitimizes of validates these feelings. I would also add that it is not of benefit for people to form connections with me either. It is my view that doing so is to the detriment of anyone who tries.
Which presents us with quite the contradiction. For I simultaneously desire to have connections, through this gain a sense of belonging and also believe that it is detrimental for someone to connect with me. Indeed on a semi regular basis my feelings of being contrary to someone's well being results in me cutting all contact with them. In my mind I am doing them a favour. After all, it could be asserted that I am an emotional vampire. If this is the case, and I suspect it is, then by simple virtue of connecting with me they are having their positivity stole from them.
Now as you should know, things are rarely as simplistic as this. As my lecturer for politics of culture would assert, if it seems too simple it is probably wrong. Indeed I hardly exist in a dark pit where no light is known of. There are plenty of things in life which can bring me lots of happiness. Firstly I absolutely love people who reflect some level of intelligence. While I appreciate intellectualism as a whole, I lean much more towards the humanities and social sciences. In terms of ideology I am quite fond of post modernism and feminism. Although my interests are not limited to them. Nor do I like all forms of feminism. From my interests in intellectualism, I typically idolize those in the teaching professions and academia/scholarship in general.
I do love to chat and when I tend to make a lot of jokes and be quite the smart a** at times. Unfortunately my jokes are predominantly lame. However when I get on an energism high, I lovies energy drinks, my jokes come out at a much higher rate. They are still lame though. But hey, at least I am consistent. Much like consumption of energy drinks, I am also highly fond of sweet food and confectionery. So much happiness can be found from the taste of sweet food. *Sheds a tear* so so much.
When hanging out with friends I prefer to do nice relaxed activities. Such as board games, pool and discussing sociocultural topics. Yes, I even like to do these while consuming alcohol. On that note I am somewhat of a mature drinker. I am almost all but past the age where getting drunk is the goal in and of itself. Although as a happy drunk, getting drunk is not a problem per se. One should also be pre warned that I can make a lot of sexual jokes. You are quite safe here though. As I tend to predominantly make them in person.
Hopefully this balances things out a little more. It is approximately 5am, so apologies if this is overly incoherent.
