Always do your best to satisfy every urge.

About Me

I am a 22-year old college graduate who lives in the beautiful city of Portland, Oregon. I'm a loan officer who works at Countrywide, and I'm enjoying youth and life with my fantastic boyfriend Sean! I believe in free thought and consciousness. Life is glowing with radiance... you just have to look for the gold hiding in the cracks.

My Interests

Astrology (I will tell you all about yourself!), Tarot, Palmistry, music, drawing (charcoal mostly), politics, wine, Spanish culture and language, animals of all kinds (especially cats!), Subarus, artwork (my current favorite contemporary artist is Carolyn Quan), random drives with Sean, and fun times with my boyfriend and all of my girlfriends!

I'd like to meet:

Interesting, intelligent people who have something to say....

Music:

Tool and A Perfect Circle are my favorite (I love Maynard)! I adore Jack Johnson, Ben Harper, Dave Matthews, The Counting Crows, Fiona Apple, Pearl Jam, Radiohead, Sublime, Natalie Merchant, James Blunt, Howie Day, Jimi Hendrix, Janis Joplin, Madonna, Tori Amos, Andrea Bocelli, Sarah Brighton, The Velvet Underground, The Eagles, The Doors, Weezer, Pink Martini, Incubus, Blink 182, 311, Ella Fitzgerald, Frank Sinatra, Nancy Sinatra, Pink Floyd, Floater.... Okay, I pretty much like everything. As Sean says, "Music is the wine that fills the cup of silence."

Movies:

The Usual Suspects and American Beauty - classic Kevin Spacey! Also, Diarios de Motocicleta, City of God, Napoleon Dynamite, Scarface, Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, I Heart Huckabees, Closer, What the Bleep Do We Know?!, The Aviator, Requiem for a Dream, Celebrity, Blow, Boogie Nights, Permanent Midnight, Fahrenheit 9/11, Evita, Kinsey, The Godfather, Pulp Fiction, Donnie Brasco, Catch Me If You Can, Fight Club, Casino, A Clockwork Orange, Empire Records, Great Expectations, Donnie Darko, Capote, Full Metal Jacket, Citizen Kane, and some more....

Television:

Books:

The Women's Room; Lolita; The Virgin Suicides; The Bone People; Beloved; Jude the Obscure; Vanity Fair; Che; Diary of A Drug Fiend; Middlesex; and many, many more.... I am a literature freak (guess that's common among English majors).A few of my favorite quotes:
"To exist is to change; to change is to mature; to mature is to create oneself endlessly."
-Henri Bergson
"The road of excess leads to the palace of wisdom."
-William Blake
"The surest way to corrupt a youth is to instruct him to hold in higher esteem those who think alike than those who think differently."
-Friedrich Nietzsche

Heroes:

Hillary Rodham Clinton, Marilyn French, and Margaret Sanger

My Blog

Life....

So, I hadn't been on here much lately, but I guess I'm renewing my MySpace vows, because my time online has increased the past week or so.  It's great to find so many people on here who I haven't...

Hello, all...

So, I've been threatened that I need to write a blog or else....  And, besides that, I decided it was probably time to let all of you know what I've been up to.  Life isn't too exciting over...

Ah, life

I have missed you all!  I got back from L.A. on Saturday, at long last, and basically hibernated with Sean the rest of the weekend.  Work is crazy, but I love it; I had a blast at training, ...

An intense week

So, I've managed to curb my addiction to MySpace, though not necessarily by choice.  My training program is amazing for work - I never thought I would have so much going on so soon!  I have ...

I need motivation!

So, this whole vacation thing has definitely been getting to me - before, I couldn't relax, and now that's all I do! Someone should tell me to get my ass off MySpace and study for the LSATs while prep...

Going to L.A. soon....

Despite the fact that I grew up in Southern California, I haven't been down to visit in years (I guess I'm a bad relative).  I just found out, though, that for my new job with Countrywide, I'm go...

Jack Johnson rocks!

Okay, just so everyone is aware, Jack Johnson is amazing live.  If you haven't seen him and like his music, I would definitely recommend going to a concert.  Tiff, Easton and I went to Bend ...

Graduation and the ensuing plans....

I thought I'd let everyone know what I've been up to, since I definitely haven't been online.  Today I'm headed off to the Jack Johnson concert in Bend, to celebrate my graduation with Tiffany an...
