O.J.G. = Original Jersey Girl

About Me

crazy eclectic:

add me:

YOU CAN TAKE THE GIRL OUT OF JERSEY, BUT YOU CAN'T TAKE THE JERSEY OUT OF THE GIRL

sometimes, i'm melodramatic and a big depressive mess. catch me a little later, and you'll see me acting all silly and dorky. i'm the first to make fun of myself. i always, always mean well, above it all. i've got a big heart.

looks can be deceiving - "unconventional" is more than a style of dress.

oh, and yeah...
i sing better than you.
TRUST ME on that one, m'dear.

My Interests

karaoke at Gilly's/Second Wind (whatever it's called). music. poetry. singing. writing. lyrics. going to shows. partying. going down the shore (or i guess "to the beach" now that i'm in cali). dancing. talking all night long. tattoos. crazy-emo-punk-musician-types. dive bars. dying my hair. breakfast foods. hip-hop. road trips. falling in love. daydreaming. sushi. discovering new music. spending money i don't have. psychology. dressing up pretty. reading. pop culture. comfy clothes. being online way too much. blogging. working on writing my life story. diet pepsi. diet black cherry vanilla coke. playing around on paint shop pro and making little graphics. black eyeliner. hot boy-on-boy action (hee!). snuggling. driving with the music on really loud and singing along. ALWAYS singing. learning to play guitar (hopefully) and improving my piano skills.

I'd like to meet:

mo' san diegans! (of course!) to hang with, shop with, go to shows with, drink with, sing karaoke with...

i'd like to re-meet some long lost pals from the days of yore.

any alumni from the University of Scranton -- whether i knew you or not. because the U of S kicks ass, we all know it, and over all, pretty much everyone who went there is cool.

alumni from Ridge High School, Basking Ridge, NJ - but only under these conditions:
1. i knew you, and we were at least semi-friendly
2. you are as cranky and bitter about having to have gone to that school as i am
3. you have gotten the pole out of your ass and gotten over being a rich-bitch

a friend of a friend of a friend...


anyone, anywhere. i do mean that, wholeheartedly. let's be friends, shall we?

people who are as dorky and silly as me. or who are willing to put up with my dorkiness and silliness.

BUT...no one shady. no one looking for myspace booty. i'm a happily taken woman. i love making friends, but that's as far as it's going to go. 3

Music:

worth every scar ♥ a scribe amidst the lions. howie day. taking back sunday. jimmy eat world. beyonce. fall out boy. panic! at the disco. kelly clarkson. gym class heroes. the hush sound. cobra starship. evanescence. mariah carey. linkin park. tori amos. toad the wet sprocket. something corporate/jack's manequin. my chemical romance. christina aguilera. self against city. straylight run. the get up kids. paramore. keyshia cole. the go-gos. mary j. blige. chaka khan. hellogoodbye. aretha franklin. smashing pumpkins. marvin gaye. no doubt/gwen stefani. jay-z. the police. 311. pop. rock. punk. r&b. hip hop. ol' skool. trance. freestyle (as in old KTU stuff). emo. motown. country. dancehall. oldies. classical. choral. showtunes. the bands on my friend list. everything.

i've seen everyone in concert from fleetwood mac to britney spears to depeche mode to the fugees to...you get the point! stadiums/arenas to basement shows; i'll go see anything.

music snobs can rot in hell

Movies:

snakes on a plane. shag. grease 2. rent. jesus christ superstar. the legend of billie jean. napoleon dynamite. garden state. moulin rouge. girl interrupted. the cooler. high fidelity. chicago. 1980's john hughes movies. 10 things i hate about you. empire records. emmet otter's jugband christmas. valley girl. teen witch. the legend of billie jean (yeah, lots of random shit)

Television:

when i actually WATCH tv, it's usually something like BEST WEEK EVER! or some other show on vh1. now that i've moved and have TiVo (or DVR, whatever they call it here in SoCal), i need to learn how to use it and get back into watching some shows!

Books:

a million little pieces. wasted. the bell jar. white oleander. catcher in the rye. the perks of being a wallflower. poetry anthologies. i'm sure there's others that i can't remember.

currently reading:
dreaming of hitler; passions and provocations - daphne merkin
the boy with the thorn in his side - peter wentz

Heroes:

the people i know who have the strength to be themselves and follow their dreams. you're who i'm taking my inspiration from now. thank you for that.
