About Me

I have just moved to Eureka to get out of the Hell that is Sacramento. I am working on my MA in Liberal Arts. A degree which will in no way make me more employable. Just a great way to increase my body of knowledge. I am a true scorpio and can be pretty intense which can either be pretty cool or annoying. I try to keep it in check, but am not very successful. I am definately not what I look like on the surface. Yes, some of my tastes are very sedate but deep down I'm not. I'm trying to hone my writing skills so that maybe I can have a writing career, move on to a phD, or be a college professor when all of this schooling is done.Check out my blog:http://astramillie.blogspot.com/

My Interests

I read and read and read. For school and for pleasure. I love my morning walks around Eureka. I have begun woodworking, little projects on my own, bigger ones with my dad's help.

Music:

Right now I am totally into folk music. Woody Guthrie, Pete Seeger, Billy Bragg, Phil Ochs etc. My old punk records are brought out on occasion.

Movies:

I do not watch movies with violence. That does mean I've missed out on what are supposed to be wonderful, but I try to stick to my ethics.

Television:

Guilty pleasure - True Hollywood Story and Dr. 90210. Otherwise I mainly watch old movies on Turner Classic Movies.

Books:

Where do I start? Basic list - Kurt Vonnegut, Sommerset Maughm, Jane Austen. Well that's a start.

Heroes:

Allen Ginsberg. He did what he wanted and what he believed in. Che Guevara, like his politics hate his violence (hypocritical choice I know). My parents - they have the type of relationship I aspire to.

For Christ sake take the phone out of my hand

I'm realising how much fucking time I spend on the phone. I tend to spend more time talking to friends that way then in person. I also seem to be pissing people off because of it. Yes, I guess I ca...
