Biography: |
Behold, for I am about to compress my interests into one paragraph. Something I've never done before. I'm sixteen, American and not always proud of it, and I love Lord of the Rings and hobbits in particular (especially Sam, followed closely by Pippin and Merry). I'm left-wing but anti-conformity, so no party for me. I have many fierce opinions, but my philosophy in life is to do my best to accept all points of view, which I sometimes have trouble with. I'm attempting to live by the ways of Gandhi. It's hard, but I feel more at peace with myself during it. I'm a huge huge huge movie buff, I adore most types of music except most mainstream or rap, and my favorite bands are all generally from the 60s and 70s. I also love musicals. And Scotsmen. My ambition is to become a successful author/screenwriter and also an actor and director, and to eventually be living in Scotland. My idols/people-I-adore include Tim O'Brien, Tolkien, Billy Boyd, Dom Monaghan, Peter Jackson, Tim Burton, Johnny Depp, Tim Robbins, Brad Dourif, Audrey Hepburn, Charlie Kaufman, Max Barry, Stephen Sondheim, John Lennon, George Harrison, Bill Maher, and especially Mohandas K. Gandhi. And that, my fellow Ringers and writers, is me. -Minty |
