"THE MENACE"

I need a coffee.

About Me

My purpose in life is to spread useless but highly entertaining information to all that I meet in my travels.

I am very fond of browsing quaint boutiques in West Hollywood as well as acquiring a Tsumori Chisato dress collection to satiate my boyfriend's constant and demanding pedophilic desires-slash-needs.

I currently work at a design studio in South Central (despite what they like to tell us, "downtown LA") where I also learn conversational Hebrew.

I really like to recycle and I am so happy my city has now given our residents colored trash bins to differentiate between recyclables and trash. I hope they made those trash bins out of recycled plastic!

My Interests

any form of art or design: 2D, 3D, live, edible, loud... free, overpriced... you name it.

Andrew Rosen. Michael Bastian. Or John Varvatos. Or Tom Ford. Eventually all of them. And Natalie Portman. Marion Cotillard. Sacha Baron Cohen.

Girl, Interrupted

After watching that crazily refreshing movie last night, I think I will pass on watching any movies currently in and will be hitting the theatre. Movies aren't made about normal things anymore.
