Knowing other is wisdom, knowing yourself is enlightenment.

About Me


I was born Stephanie Ann Sager on August 24, 1987 in Honolulu, Hawaii. I have a wonderful Filipino/Spanish momma and a Texan born daddy-o. My dad's nationality consists of majorly German, Irish, and Creek Indian. I was raised in the UK for a lot of my childhood and then moved here with my family when I was 9... I have been here ever since.
I enjoy embracing all cultures and their different foods, traditions, etc. I love, love, LOVE to travel when I can and will always make the most out of those opportunities as I love having great stories to tell. If I can't travel, I watch the Travel/History channel to ease my dreams a little ha ha! My favorite place to visit is Amsterdam (but not for the reasons you think, although I did have fun with that too). One of my favorite shows is Andrew Zimmern's Bizzare Foods =). My life revolves taking care of my family, loving my man, getting my degree done, having fun with my friends, environmentalism, and accomplishing even just little things to make a difference.
Right now I am working on my degree in Interior Design. Once I do finish my Interior Design degree though, I would love to travel around the world for a bit to further my knowledge of different cultures and see the world's greatest historical destinations! I consider myself quite the connoisseur of trip hop/down tempo jazzy lounge music and do enjoy a high dose of good ol' surf/garage/swing/rockabilly tunes.
I love belly dancing, having anything that is lavender, hiking, yoga, and having an obsession with previous eras. I've got a pretty strong personality that I do pick and choose my friends very wisely. I'm not religious but I know my limits and do have my personal morals intact. I never give up on anything or anyone I believe in. I value love and respect amongst my friends and family which is why I adore them so =). Overall, I believe in what Socrates says that "the unexamined life is not worth living".

My Interests

Bellydancing, different forms of music, yoga, outdoor activities, circuses (minus the animal cruelty), environmentalism, feminism, health, traveling, and just anything I can learn about that can expand my thinking and understanding of the world.

My little Pretzel

Music:


I listen to pretty much everything. I have an undying love for old school garage rock, modern trip hop, latin, jazz, metal, reggae, and international music. GROUPS like Incubus, Smashing Pumpkins, Bjork, The Starlite Desperation, TOOL, Q and Not U, Erase Errata, The Black Heart Procession, South, The Verve, Smoke City, Sneaker Pimps, Sigur Ros, Oasis, Blur, Beck, Kasabian. OLD SCHOOL GARAGE ROCK like the Sonics, The Beatles, Gore Gore Girls, The Monkees, The Wailers, The Ventures. HIP HOP like M.I.A., Dilated Peoples, Talib Kweli, Lupe Fiasco, Common. The list goes on and on and on. I'm an all-around music appreciator. My obsession lately is French muse and songstress Emilie Simon.

Television:

My Aeon Flux boxed set. I Love Lucy, Bewitched, The Munsters, The Jetsons, The Flintstones. Anything from back in the day I will watch.

Books:

Favorite quotes:
"Being deeply loved by someone gives you strength while loving someone deeply gives you courage." -- Lao Tzu

"The only people for me are the mad ones, the ones who are mad to live, mad to talk, mad to be saved, desirous of everything at the same time, the ones who never yawn or say a commonplace thing, but burn, burn, burn, like fabulous yellow roman candles exploding like spiders across the stars and in the middle you see the blue centerlight pop and everybody goes 'Awww!'"
-- Jack Kerouac

Heroes:



My loving mother and father. Yes that cheeky little bugger is me.

Tony. I am so grateful for him always being there and understanding me. I'm spoken for =).

Niagara Detroit. This women is seriously one of the main reasons I love and embrace female empowerment in art today. .

Audrey Hepburn. She was so perfectly imperfect and I loved it.

I admire many people for various things but my younger sister tops them off because she keeps me grounded and loving life every second I can. We simply just love each other to death and stick together no matter what. We've got that sisterly bond that's very rare nowadays.
