My personal time is important to me, but I also believe in honest work and am very focused on performing well at the college I am attending. At 4'6", I'm obviously short. I value spending time with my family. I love animals, pasta and reading (I adore Chuck Palahniuk and Vladimir Nabokov). I like to analyze literature and study history. Musically, I love Marilyn Manson, The Dresden Dolls, Michael Jackson, HIM, The Cure...it goes on. Most people would say I'm a friendly person, although I can be shy. I can be direct if I have to be. I'm not the wittiest person on the planet, but I have my humorous moments, and am looking for someone who has a sense of humor. My friends and family say I'm a smartass (gee, I just can't imagine why). I don't much care for television or sports. I promise to not put a man through a million chick flicks.
To be honest, I'm young and inexperienced in the dating field, but I'm ready to find someone with whom I can have a meaningful relationship. I'm looking for someone who can care about me as well as himself, who has a fairly good idea of what his future goals are, and doesn't mind showing/receiving affection. Good communication is key with all people in life. Mostly, I'm looking for a nice person to share my time with.

I don't see anything wrong with the typical movie, dinner, or coffee, but if the other person has a different idea I probably won't object.
