Hi, I’m Paul. I live with my parents and an older brother in Papillion out in the country, a thirty minute drive from Prep. I am also a night person and feel most comfortable and most myself in the evenings. Because I like to stay up late and because I have to wake up early to get to school on time, I never get enough sleep and am ALWAYS tired. I love rainy weather and especially love thunderstorms and storm season. I enjoy eating and cooking with a passion (eating a bit more passionately than cooking, hehe). My favorite foods are pozole, medium-rare to rare steak, falafel, gulab jamun, pecan pie, avocado salsa, mango lassis, my mom’s enchiladas, sopa (which means something completely different in my family), kadhai gosht, and pretty much anything that’s made with lamb. Things that pique my interest include reading a good book somewhere quiet and comfy, astronomy, and languages. I am currently take an online Arabic class (because Prep doesn’t offer it) and might be doing a Russian Rosetta Stone with my brother (because he is planning on applying to be an astronaut). I appreciate all types of music and have a catholic taste in the music I listen to. Also, as a musician, I play the saxophone and the tuba (and have a decent singing voice, if I say so myself). I have a widowed salamander, a homicidal bird, three cats (one of which is evil came from inside our car), and a dog. I like to wear pajama pants all the time and am a chronic procrastinator (not that the two are at all related). Family is extremely important to me and I always look forward to spending time with them during the holidays. Sloths are my favorite animals and blues and grays are my favorite colors.
And that is essentially everything you will ever need to know about me.
What are war pajamas? Would your mom share her enchilada recipe? How many languages do you know? Is there a back story to you liking the color gray? I love your cats, even though I've never met them. They're cute, but mine is cuter. As a saxophone player myself, I need to say that you should've stayed on that. You and I could've been the tenor section. That would be hilarious, but probably bad as we'd be talking the entire time. #awesomeness
ReplyDeleteHaha, I'm sorry Matt, I meant to say that I like to "wear" pajamas all the time, not make war on them. I fixed it for you. And my mom's enchilada recipe IS TOTALLY HIGHLY CLASSIFIED AND YOU CAN'T HAVE IT!! Anyways, the only language I "know" is English, but I can understand Spanish pretty well, can read and understand a little Arabic, and am in the process of beginning to learn Russian. As for the color gray, it comes from my love of cloudy weather (because clouds are gray, get it?!?). I aslo totally agree with you about the saxophone, my favorite instrument! However, the switch from sax to tuba wasn't my idea. Oh well, as long as J's happy with where I am now!!
ReplyDeleteI liked today's weather... Cool, but not very cold. Reminds me of San Fransisco... A lot. I love it there. I want to go back there and visit Alcatraz. Oh well, at least I got to go on a boat ride around it.
