      Why *am* I angry? It's a good question. I think I might be more frustrated than angry, though, and mainly at the fact that my life is not how I thought it would be.

      I'd love to struggle in New York. In certain ways, I haven't been happy since I left. But struggling in Maryland means I get a roof over my head. If I ever get kicked out (it's a distinct possibility), I probably will go back. Don't really have anywhere else to go.

      Just one, English. At one point, I was proficient in Spanish. I'd like to relearn it, in addition to learning Portuguese, French, Arabic, Mandarin, Hindu, etc etc etc. I'm a wannabe polyglot.

      I think I tweet more about wanting to drink than drinking itself. I'd say, at most, three times a week, that includes weekends (I don't really go out too much on weekends). Normally it's just twice a week.

      I use formspring for twitter and tumblr ask for tumblr. The last question appeal (I sound desperate) was accidentally cross posted.

      Getting into NYU. That was quite probably the happiest day of my life.

      I've been thinking about this a lot in the last week, anony-asker, and it's a difficult question to answer. I initially wanted to define it as not being accountable to anyone else, but that's a) unrealistic; and b) selfish. Then I wanted to define it as being able to do what I want, when I want but, again, that's a) unrealistic; and b) selfish. With all that said, I'm going to leave it as being satisfied with the choices you make, to be able to go to sleep at night happy with who you are.

      I've thought about this a lot, since I saw this question four days ago. I thought I had figured it out (a huge Indian feast) until I hit "respond." Let's go with a plate of pad thai, a plate of Fun in Black, and stack of crispy vegetable spring rolls from the Lemongrass Grill location in Park Slope (is it still there?). Or, from Spice. Or, you know, a trip to Bangkok for some authentic, vegetarian Thai street food.

      Beyoncé is the better singer and performer by, but I'd stab a bitch for Ri-ri's wardrobe. I love her style.

      In my dreams: telekinesis. It's the best all around power. Want to fly? Focus your powers on yourself and levitate. Want people to GTFO the way? Blast through them and create a force field around yourself. Feeling too lazy to get up and get the remote? Float it to you. The possibilities are endless!

      In real life: being quiet and unassuming =)

      It helped to have a college roomate who was -- and still is -- vegetarian, just for me to know it was an option, that everything didn't have to have meat.

      I started seriously considering vegetarianism when I was a college junior, when I was studying abroad in London, where I would go vegetarian for a week at a time as a kind of detox. I went vegetarian for good that summer, almost three years ago.

      Ultimately, it came down to issues of health and issues of conscience. I have a family history of high cholesterol, high blood pressure, and diabetes, and vegetarian diets — which are *generally* healther; it is possible to be an unhealthy vegetarian — are normally good for controlling those issues. Regarding morals, the meat industry is disgusting, plain and simple. I would never try to force my beliefs on anyone, however, and I don't begrudge anyone who eats meat. I just know it's [meat-eating] not for me, it's not who I am, not anymore.
