Acrostic Alice

Who am I? A normal guy. An 18yr old unsure about his future. I enjoy simple pleasures - reading novels, listening to the blues, watching westerns. Academically, nothing special. Emotionally, female. Bad sleeping patterns, spontaneous and extravagant shopping sprees. Monogamous. Spiritually growing, but prone to comfort zones out of which I must be shocked with a gentle cattle-prod. I like to stay busy, helping people, making friends, working towards a future. Looking always for originality and creativity. Learning, and not (just) the school variety. In other people, I appreciate honesty; openness without emotional prostitution; a big laugh; positivity; craziness; faithfulness; faith; a large heart; a healthy awareness of social attitudes without surrender to conformity for the sake of popularity or an easy life; beauty; a focus not on themselves.

I realise this is a completely self-oriented blog, and I won't pretend that it's anything else. I wanted to see if I could put myself on a piece of paper. I didn't fit. So I wrote this instead. Please forgive me the introspection, and also the hypocrisy of my subject when compared with the last line of the above...

PostScript: I found some quotations from Douglas Adams which proved a source of some amusement to myself, and I felt that I should do the honourable thing and share them with you.

"It is a mistake to think that you can solve any major problem just with potatoes"

"It is no coincidence that in no known language does the phrase 'as pretty as an airport' appear"

"The ships hung in the sky in much the same way as bricks don't"

"Ah, this is obviously some strange usage of the word 'safe' that I wasn't previously aware of"
