About Me

Evil is coming...
My mood right now is
Artist, Vocalist, Lyricist, Bassist, Writer, overall creative person...
    * Drawing, Painting, Photography, Graphic and Web Design, and plenty more crafty stuff
    * Writing and singing off my emotions and feelings... mostly off the negative energies but it's a good release for me
    * Playing Bass, Guitar, Keyboard, Tribal Drums... trying to expand myself musically
    * Love designing and creating through HTML, Photoshop, Illustrator, Flash
    * Car Modification, body work, working on my car and taking it to shows, have some more custom paint work I'll be planning. Great sense of accomplishment knowing I did alot of the work myself.

Student
    * Working on finishing my BA in Graphic Design (graduating May 2007)

Basically I'm very much into art, creativity and music/metal. They all play a very big part in my life. A bit reserved, but also depends on how well you know me. Somewhat gothy image, I wear alot of black and like unique, different styles, corsets... and boots, I love my boots lol. You won't find me in an Ambecrombie or Old Navy store unless I have to be, in other words... I've only been in an Old Navy store once. Non-conformist, I don't like to be like anyone else or follow the trends, ideas, etc. I have my own opinion of things and that's how it's going to be. I'm not going to be a mindless drone... you have a brain so use it and form your own opinions. I enjoy driving, I have no problem with driving places especially if there's a good reason for it, which usually relates to music. Lived in MN (not going into that one), back in my home state now. Chicago, NJ, or NY... ummm yeah always a fun drive :P you know what I mean. I'm a singer/lyricist/bassist in a new project with Kohl on guitar/keys/synths. "Cytre" is now the name, obviously derived from my name. Feels like a reincarnation to me.... ahhh the energy. The website is finally up and running... still in the testing phase and some changes still need to be made but it's up!! Oh and the forum is changing from what is linked, to Here . I enjoy going to concerts, either national or local acts, though I've found a lacking of many metal bands around here. I laugh alot... I try not to stress over things so I laugh things off, which can get me in trouble. Either that or Kohl's tickeling the hell out of me. He's an amazing part of my life. We connect on so many levels, have so much in common, seems like we think on the same wavelength. Very caring and understanding, and I love him so much.
Created with Photoshop with stock photography from CausticStock, Enkeli Stock Selection, and one other which I need to look up

Paranormal, Supernatural, Urban legends, Ghost tales, basically anything you would normally see around Halloween

Books:


Authors
Edgar Allen Poe
Genres
Mostly horror, mystery, maybe a little sci fi.
Usually anything with vampires or the supernatural, dark themes, suspense, etc.
Mostly I don't get to read much outside of school though. SO it's been WWII novels (last semester)(Primo Levi Survival in Auschwitz, Gunter Grass Crabwalk, Doris Bergen War and Genocide, Jackson Speilvogel Hitler and Nazi Germany, with the occasional reading up on Wicca, though I've learned a lot about various religions through school and my own personal research over the years... They're based on the same philosophy so why do we all argue so much about it?
Last year it was French Lit (Andre Gide, Albert Camus, Joseph Zobel, Mariama Ba). and Human Biology. This semester... the Oceans and Cultural Anthropology - Very Interesting. [as far as my main sources of reading and interest. That keeps me busy enough with my reading]
