| Bio: | As might be evidenced by the title of the journal, I have studied some French, but the quote comes from my love of foreign cinema. A rough translation from the movie "Leolo" to be exact. I'm originally from North Central Arkansas - a small town called Harrison to be exact - and then I went to the University of Arkansas, Fayetteville from which I have a bachelor's in Journalism and Psychology. And then I entered a doctoral program in clincial psychology in Florida - but after 2 years and a Master's degree of that, I decided I needed a break. So I took a leave of absence and moved to NYC. I love to watch foreign films, especially foreign gay / coming of age films. . . Hollywood and the media in this country in general are SO far behind culture wise so I must look elsewhere for entertainment. I am weirdly addicted to crime shows (CSIs, Law and Orders, Crossing Jordan, etc.). I used to be somewhat of a sci-fi geek and I still am (I just hide it well :-) ). And if you haven't figured it out by now, I am gay. Some would say that I am so so so so so gay lol. I will admit that in many ways I do fit the homosexual stereotype and believe that when one first meets me that they can tell that I am gay without much trouble. That being said, I don't see myself as a completely fem guy, there are masculine traits in my personality - they're just subtle and you have to look for them. One of my biggest rants is that I do have a tendency to be attracted to fem boys (I so see myself falling for a hispanic drag queen one of these days, ;-) ) but I've heard the phrase He's a bit to girly for me more than once and the result of that was a 2 paper series on how gender stereotypes handcuff the gay community for my queer theory class (I did tell you I was a dork right?) I always describe the boy that I'm ideally looking for as "my unicorn" because unicorns are the beautiful, perfect creatures of myth. My ideal boy would have both looks and personality, would be sensitive to my issues, but also open enough to let me help him with his, would be comfortable going out and living it up, but also happy and content to stay at home cuddle on the couch while watching a movie. Why do I call him a Unicorn? Because at this point, I'm not sure a boy with all of the characteristics I want exists, but that doesn't stop me from looking. If you read this journal a lot you will notice that I do go out from time to time, and I do like the club scene. . .while I can hold my own in a club, I am far from being a club kid and like I said, I'm just as happy spending the night in. . . This journal also chronicles my journey from the neurotic obsessive mess I was back in my sophomore year of college to the slightly less neurotic, obsessive organized mess that I am now. LOL! If you want a sample of some of the better posts - click the link to my memories and see what you can see. . . Almost all of my early entries are public, but since I tend to use this journal as my ranting ground and a place to get feedback from all of my friends without having to retell the story and because I've become guarded and don't trust all of my shit with just anyone, that public trend has diminished over the years. So, if you'd like to be added to my friends list to see all of my posts, add me to your friends list then drop me a comment in my livejournal telling me who you are and why you added me. Simple as that. :-) If you are reading back through my earlier entries, you might find what I've called "year later" comments. These are comments I've added when I've gone back and read over my entries at least a year after they were originally posted. I talk about either how much I've changed, or how stupid I was and such stuff like that. :-) Sans obscurité il n'y a aucune lumière. Dans cet équilibre, entre bon et mauvais, on trouvera la vérité. Je marche cette ligne tandis que je cherche. Je cherche mon identité. Et j'espère, j'aime ce que je trouve. C'est la lumière. The Etiology of MSPhoenix as a Nickname Some Pics (will open in a new window): "My Dawtas" - Karyn and Sophia - and "The Battybwoy" - ME! (If you don't get it - that's Patois, because they're Jamaican lol) Shirtless and trying to be "hot" lol MastertheShadow - JC on MySpace About the layout - We all know about my search for "my unicorn." Well, when my friend Jennifer used to read my tarot, I was always represented by the Queen of Swords - she's kind of a "strong, bitchy card" lol. So, the picture is the Queen of Swords card from the Unicorn Tarot deck by Liz Hilton. How perfect is that!?
