About midnightdreary

Hello! If you want to address me by something other than 'midnighdreary', you can call me Rad. (It's a nickname that only one person uses, but I like it, so I'll use it here).

Favorite poem: Sonnet 116 by Shakespeare.
Favorite book: Aristotle and Dante Discover the Secrets of the Universe by Benjamin Alire Sáenz.
Favorite movies: Dead Poets Society, and anything by studio Ghibli.
Music: I like pretty much anything, rock, jazz, classical, indie/ alternative, electronic. Although recently, I've started disliking pop music, which I guess makes me a stereotype, but whatever.
Favorite classes: I love english class. I had an english class this year (aka sophomore year) which I got super close with and really made my love for writing and reading blossom. I also love biology and science in general. It's like, what makes the world the way it is? Science can tell you!

Fun facts: I'd like to be an english teacher or a botanist when I'm older, and I cannot spell for my life.

Too often we crave the extraordinary in life, without even learning how to cherish the ordinary first. Friend, I promise you this: if you can learn to take joy in the simple mundane things in life, the extraordinary will take care of itself, it'll be on its way, hurrying towards you. But if you skip the first part, it'll ever evade you.
