How can I express how little I give a fuck?

About Me


"JUST GIVE ME A SCENE WHERE THE MUSIC IS FREE AND THE BEER IS NOT THE LIFE OF THE PARTY." -Against Me!....it is a quote I LIVE BY!!!!
"Killing is easy when you don't see faces, and you don't have to dig graves."
"You call it an ideal of promoting democracy, I call it a franchise!"
-The last two quotes are from Smoke or Fire's lyrics. I couldn't have put it in better words :)
I go to work and I go to school.
I am very passionate about music, politics, and art.
I work at a restaurant and I work in a research lab. My job in the lab aims at measuring the influx and outflux of calcium in a fruit fly's brain (specifically Drosophila Melanogaster).
I hate George Bush.
I love art history. My favorite artists are Andy Warhol and Van Gogh. Andy is the person I look up to. He once made an amazing statement in his The Philosophy of Andy Warhol book, stressing that people should tell others their faults before others have the chance to point them out.
I love to point out my flaws. I have no self confidence. I guess that is a good and bad thing!
I took Latin in high school for 4 years. The most passionate author I have ever read is Ovid. His Latin poetry is amazing and so descriptive. I really want to learn Italian and I am half way there with Latin, eh?
I really want to go to Italy. I want to ride in a gondala and have a fat Italian guy sing to me.
I love Holden Caulfield from Catcher in the Rye. I am the girl version of him. He has a great outlook on life that prevents him from getting hurt.
I LOVE laughing. Any person who can make me laugh will always have a special place in the Katers' heart.
I am a gum fanatic! I love gum! I always have like 4 packs of gum on me at a time, and I have to unwrap all the packages right when I get them so they are ready to go when I need 'em!
I love to sing in the car. A lot of people are scared to sing in the car for fear that someone else might see them. If someone looks at me when I am singing, I sing harder! We need more passion in our lives!
At work (in the restaurant), I have encountered many an odd person. There are those who you hand a pager to and they look at you like, "Why the hell would I of all people have to wait?" I hate when couples sit on the same side of the booth. It drives me crazy. I think my job has helped me to notice how much I really am beginning to hate people.

My Interests

I like converse.

I love glasses.

I love to sneeze!

I love photography.

I love to collect vinyl records.

I LOVE music. I could seriously sit in my room or car for hours just listening to music.

Light eyes and darker hair.

I like to go to shows.

I LOVE when guys hold me by my waist.

I love to read--political books, art books, poetry, and any other kind of novel. Reading takes me away from reality.

George is my favorite Beatle.

I am not big on "chick flicks," but I LOVE comedies. Anything with Will Ferrell in it is golden!

QUESTION OF THE DAY
What do you think: Consider you have a 10 dollar bill and 7 ones in your pocket and you go to a store and buy something that costs $6.78. Would you split the 10 or use the 7 ones? Personally, I would split the 10, that way I would be able to have a variety of change rather than just one ten dollar bill and a few coins laying around.

I'd like to meet:

I would like to meet people who are motivated about art and music. Those who aren't so deeply concerned with themselves that they dont care to think about how others feel.
