About Me

Layers of anxiety over layers of calm over layers of sateen over recycled soda bottles with pockets of mud sewn on the front. Smells like jasmine or sour milk. Love for the slightly unsual. Cannot comprehend the social norm. Cannot comprehend the socially stupid. A love for art, a love for science, a love for life but a thirst for dark. A love for the sound of fallen leaves crunching under mary janes and a baby stroller.heres the non-abstract version:my name is karen, im part chinese part german, part irish, a dash of this and a dash of that. my husband is javi (pronounced *ha-vee) which is short for javier. i have a son named tenzing and sometimes i write it "10z". my favorite color is usually oarnge, my favorite food is usually thai, i dont like big cars, i hate waste, carelessness, beligerence and wrecklessness.i love to travel, ive been to thailand, japan(for about 18 hours), australia, tahiti, new zealand, france, italy, canada, puerto rico and a buncha states including hawaii.i have 4 random ass tattoos, two from tahiti, two from my best bud daven who is my son's godfather. the guys who did my tats in tahiti are named roonui and moise (roo-en-ooh-ee and mo-eez)i like to do art yet i rarely get the chance anymore, the link to my deviant art page is http://kangaclaw.deviantart.com/ In art, i love typography and printmaking.some random facts about me are that i like to dissapear sometimes and reeapear with a whole new look, recently i shaved my head into a mohawk and peirced the bridge of my nose. also, i dont like coffee and cant drink alchohol, it hurts intensly in my shoulders if i do.in high school i was a competitive runner but i doubt i could run a mile anymore.i love my birthday and other holidays, i love to give presents as well as recieve. I dont like recieving flowers though unless they are live and potted. rather than flowers, a new bag of mint milano cookies is always appreciated.i like to be a pillar of stability amongst my friends, someone they can rely on, talk to, ask advice. being that makes me feel good about myself.Get Your Own Myspace Layouts @ MyspaceLayouts.cc !
