About Me

I'm living in Brooklyn now, but I'm still a Boston girl at heart. I'm a graphic designer with a graffiti fetish, a lust for urban decay, and a sweet tooth for street art. I love adventure and new experiences. I'm into art, movies, music, riding my bike, reading, knitting, going to shows and parties, and spending quality time with my friends, family, and my cat. There's not a lot I can write in this little box that will really give you the full picture of who I am, but those are the basics. You can shoot me an instant message on AIM, I'm Nicolicious617.

I love making new friends, but if you add me without messaging me I will reject you. It doesn't have to be really long, but if there's a chance I'm not going to recognize you, or if we've never met, please shoot me a note when you friend me.

My Interests

Acting, art, BDSM, clubbing, pretty girls, hamsters, homemade haircuts, reading, stencil graffiti, the Museum School Fuck Palace, the Red Sox, theater, booze, eye patches, graffiti, dyeing my hair, knitting, performing, lucid dreaming, mohawks, one inch buttons, pirates, punk-fuckin-rock, collecting rubber duckies, sleeping naked, street performers, ultimate frisbee, yoga, and taking long walks on warm nights.

I'd like to meet:

I like girls... a lot. Please be: feminine, confident, energetic, a pleasant mixture of sanity and eccentricity, intelligent, creative, and funny.

I'm also really hoping to connect with more people in the New York art scene. Other designers, street artists, performance artists, or any kind of artist. I miss being critiqued, and critiquing others. Being part of a community pushes me to grow and evolve; even if the art making is a solitary endeavor, discussing it afterwards is invaluable.

Heroes:

"We declare our right on this earth...to be a human being, to be respected as a human being, to be given the rights of a human being in this society, on this earth, in this day, which we intend to bring into existence by any means necessary." -Malcolm X
"I think your hate is evil.
What do we do to you that is so awful? Why do you feel compelled to come after us with such frightful energy? Does this somehow make you feel safer and legitimate? What possible harm comes to you if we marry, or are taxed just like you, or are protected from assault by laws that say it is morally wrong to assault people out of hatred? The reasons always offered are religious ones, but certainly they are not based on the love all religions proclaim.
And even if your objections to gays are religious, why do you have to legislate them so hatefully? Make no mistake: Forbidding gay people to love or marry is based on hate, pure and simple.
You may say you don't hate us, but the people you vote for do, so what's the difference? Our own country's democratic process declares us to be unequal. Which means, in a democracy, that our enemy is you. You treat us like crumbs. You hate us. And sadly, we let you." -Larry Kramer

I'm Quitting My Crappy Job

Yes, the one you've all heard me bitching about for the past six months. The one with the kids picking their noses and the long-ass commute and the shitty pay and the stoopid, richer-than-fuck parents...

Life is Good.

I've really neglected this poor blog, but I'm probably going to keep on neglecting it, so I won't make promises to "update" more often. I don't think anyone wants to hear about the bumper sticker I sa...

I'm not dead, and I'm not ignoring you...

I'm in New York (Brooklyn, for those of you who reside under rocks), but don't have internet hooked up yet. There's a 30 minute time limit on the computers at the library, so I don't have time to resp...

I Am One Sick Motherfucker

Early in the month, I picked up a little cold, but it wasn't really a big deal until it turned into a horrible cough. Soon that led to me getting dehydrated, which led to me getting severe nosebleeds ...

BAHLEETED!

I just deleted over 20 people from my friendlist. I deleted people whom I've never met and probably never will meet- people from California or Texas or something, or with whom I share no mutual friend...

I think I need a hug.

I totally fucked up my hand last night and had to go to the hospital. I had smoked up for the first time in ages, which was a nice way to relax, but also, um... impaired my judgement. When I got the m...

Same Shit, Different Day

I'm feeling pretty good lately. My attendance in school is okay but not great. My moods have been a little low lately, but I've got it under control. I've been getting out of the house and being socia...

I Hate My Friends, yay!

Alright, if someone travels 200 miles to your city for business and refuses to see you -3 trips in a row- are they still your fucking friend? I'm so sick of two-faced scumbags who only call me when...

I think I'll run over an old lady next time.

Well I finally hit a pedestrian on my bike. The brakes are shot, and I was kinda tired riding home from work today, plus everybody within five miles of the Charles River apparently decided to go joggi...
