about. MELISSA; college freshman seeking degree in international business, concentration in finance. bisexual. far too left to be a democrat. cafeteria catholic. apathetic. boring. fervently angry at the cultural wasteland that is society. sincere when voicing opinion. mainly introverted. emotionally-detached. a cynical adolescent. an unrepentant pessimist. radical feminist. (dismissive of crass, orthodox practices such as marriage and child-bearing). ornery by nature. prone to harsh criticism. hailed as a smart-ass since six or seven. self-righteous and ostensibly arrogant. voices vociferous hatred of sophomoric behavior. appears to have an authority issue. enjoys responding in a coolly, condescending manner. habitually refers to male genitalia for invectives. voracious reader and avid "audiophile." could survive in a library. (preferably a baroque library). seeks to travel to tangier, florence, pamplona, nairobi, and shanghai. mentally-stimulated by history, literature, natural sciences, philosophy, art, economics and cross-cultural studies. believes in God because of mankind's foibles. believes the only musical geniuses are those pertaining to classical music. in essence--to paraphrase gustave courbet--does not pertain to any school of thought or religion or political party, but an intrepid disciple of liberty, individualism and the beauty of art. otherwise, not much is sacred.
