About Me


Create your own custom MySpace Layouts

i'm tia, and i'm totally rad to the max. i have no time for pussies, whiners, or people that complain about their current situation but do nothing to change it. i just moved to chicago, and i don't have any friends yet :( so talk to me so i am not the creepy girl drinking by herself in the back of the bar!! =D

My Interests

snowboarding, contemporary art, wine, reading, B&W photography, chocolate, cooking, eating, live music, BBQing, baseball, bikram yoga

I'd like to meet:

boys with tattoos and girls that snowboard

Music:

the smiths and the cure are two of my all time favorite bands. i feel like the only person in the world that can't stand dave matthews, and my guilty pleasure is aqua.

Movies:

my all time favorite:

romantic movie = edward scissorhands.
80's flick = labryinth.
movie i saw in the theater = the scorpion king (and yes, i am serious).
gangster movie = goodfellas.
horror movie = chopping mall.
movie i used to watch with andrew at work = stuart little.
movie i was forced to watch in film school = the great train robbery.
black and white film = some like it hot... tied with raging bull

Television:

TV sucks and cable is expensive :(

Books:

i read a lot of charles bukowski, chuck palahniuk, j.g ballard and bret easton ellis in my free time. i HATE victorian literature. i love greek tragedy, and i want to teach irish literature someday. i think i am the only person alive that hated the davinci code so much i didn't even finish it.
