About Me:

I  am American and of Anglo-Saxon and Persian descent. I have a 4 year degree in history and English literature. Right now I work with youth in need of shelter and assistance. I love that I'm involved with a non-profit organization​.  I have two cats and one dog, a mini dachshund.

I greatly enjoy the pursuit of knowledge and never grow tired of learning. I adore spending time in museums, libraries, and giggling over the absurd with my friends. I recently fell in love with the poetry of Sylvia Plath and while I have a deep appreciation​ for higher learning, I also like to be silly sometimes and just have fun.

Requests:

I am especially interested in becoming penpals with people around my age from Ireland the UK, Israel and Europe. However, I welcome hearing from people from any nation, including my own. I'd love to exchange thoughts and ideas concerning literature, life, philosophy, culture, etc. Also, please no marriage proposals and or one liners. I'm interested in exchanging thoughts and ideas, not in being used to get a Visa. If you don't have a picture up, please don't write me as I like to see who I am speaking to.

Interests, Hobbies, etc.:

Literature (too many writers to name and I also like poetry and non-fiction)​, music, writing, film, thinking, singing (I sing opera), theology, philosophy, poetry, history, art, art history.

Favorite Music:

Opera, classical, alternative (Arcade Fire, Interpol, The Shins, Keane, The Killers, Regina Spektor, etc.)

Favorite Movies:

Again, too many to list but here is a sampling:

Atonement, The English Patient, Amadeus, The Painted Veil, The Diving Bell and the Butterfly, Eastern Promises, Hero, Snatch, Harold & Kumar Go to Whitecastle,​ The Last Emperor

Favorite TV Shows:

I don't watch TV

Favorite Books:

A few of my favorite authors are Virginia Woolf, Anita Shreve, Charlotte Bronte, Ian McEwan, Guy de Maupassant, Anya Seton, and many, many more.

Favorite Quotes:

"I can resist anything except temptation"​--Oscar Wilde

Oh one other thing...I will accept Dallaway on your recommendati​on. I'll get it out right away. My favourite character in literature I think is Falstaff...r​ough and tumble... the antithesis of a puritan but wonderfuly rounded and good humoured...f​ull of charity and love! I really believe that Falstaff is a 'cameo' of shakespeare verbatim . Brendan

Dear Posey...of course I should have put th Wanderer first. I take it you read it in Old English rather than a translation.​ Wonderful ways of forging words...'the​ sea is 'locked waves' etc.  It is so sad his kinsmen have died and he thinks upon the days where they drank together in the halls and prayed together but now he is adrift paddling with his bare hands the icy waters all alone. I can relate to this being so far from home. I missed St Patricks day where all my family and cousins fill the Irish club and watch the nieces and nephews do the jig encouraging the elderly to join in.

I have a 'evangelical​ protestant' friend here in London, but she was from Minnesota...​.a very gentle spirit but a very persistent apologist...​.she is doing a doctorate on mongolian history...Ge​nghis Khan etc. She knows about 12 different languages...​including Persian...sh​e has a phenomenal intellect but she is very modest...I wish you could meet her and sit around the table with our little group....whe​re we pray and sing a little and watch a heart warming Christian movie (eg...your ' TheJourney of August' ....a must see!) ... I do the cooking and like to cook many courses...Ar​ab/ Greek, Italian. This Saturday morning as usual I walk the Portobello food market and pick up the best produce for dinner tonight.
I think it is so marvellous you being a convert. Also your work for a charity.  It humbles me to know that the very best examples for me are converts and converts-in-​waiting... St Paul being one, Cardinal Newman another....e​tc.
I would feel privileged if  you stay in touch because it is rare to find a penpal  like yourself....​Brendan_Grea​lly@hotmail.​com

May God Bless you
