About Me

My name means Protection; it is my good luck charm.
Aquarius sun, Gemini moon, and Sagitarius rising.
Blue Electric Night.
"I am the darkness that is the light and the stillness that is the dancing."
Instigator and fabricator of fun, mischief, yumminess, and art in many forms. I fall hard and love fully. I love being alive. I have high standards on the people in my life because I have high standards on how I treat them. Adventure is what I seek. Peak moments. Easily excited...I see the fun factor in many situations. Spirited and fiery. Goofy and clumsy. Forgetful and always losing things. Huge cuddler and kisser. I want to make my life one big art project. Transcend what people think art should be...it's more than a commodity, it's a lifestlye. Sometimes I'm a slacker. I say "whatever" a lot. I make up my own words. I like to tell stories complete with sound effects. Making friends (in a face to face situation, not in Myspace world) is something I'm good at. I'm a great listener and loyal friend. Slightly neurotic (who isn't?), intense and kooky. If you can get past that then you are on your way to some amusing times. I say what's on my mind, sometimes to a fault. Always learning and open to new ways of thinking and being. Music and dancing is a big part of my life. Trying to be more spiritual and walk on my path. Listening to the voice within. I like to make people smile and laugh. Maker of silly jokes. And if people are laughing AT me instead of WITH me, that's okay too. Sometimes an overindulger. A hedonist at heart.
You Are 24% Girly
You are a pretty hardcore tomboy, and a very free spirit.
Gender roles be dammed, you like to do things your way. How Girly Are You?

My Interests

cooking and eating yummy food (I'll eat almost anything), soon about to learn about raw food preparation, making art, seeing art, acting, dancing, hiking, blogging, singing little ditties that I've made up, travelling, music, hanging out with friends, did I say eating?? thrift store shopping, trying to meditate, yoga, chillin' with myself, fashion, camping, kissing, Love, cuddling, heartfelt hugs,learning to sing, dancing 'til the lights go on or until the sun comes up, outdoor parties with a loud sound system, laughing until I cry and my sides and face hurts, and being silly.

I'd like to meet:

Definitely not any weirdos who I don't know! Also, I am not a myspace friend collector so don't bother asking me to be your friend if I don't know you. Other than that... Super creative, non-flakey, honest peeps living their dreams. Those who do what they say and say what they mean. People who seek beyond the status quo. Oh, and someone who smells good in that raw, earthy, sexy way.

Music:

electronic beats, breaks, progressive, techno, tech-house, etc., jazz, eighties, and other misc. music such as The Knife, 16 Bit Lolitas, Ladytron, Depeche Mode, Tom Waits, Mazzy Star, Nick Cave, She Wants Revenge, Lovemakers, the Killers, Arcade Fire, Magnetic Fields...and on and on. My main love runs along the "electronica" vein. Too much to list here.

Movies:

Spirited Away, The Secret, City of God, Secretary, Wings of Desire, Far Away So Close, Down By Law, Requiem for a Dream, Lost in Translation, Amelie, Edward Scissorhands, Party Monster (the feature film and the "shockumentary"), Napoleon Dynamite, Garden State, Magnolia, Monster, Bully, Hedwig and the Angry Inch, Mulholland Drive, Punch Drunk Love, Pan's Labyrinth, and Wild at Heart.

Television:

Nah, I don't do that. When I did, I LOVED Six Feet Under. South Park is funny.

Books:

cookbooks, art books, spiritual books and the occasional novel. Curently reading Intimacy by the author Osho (who is my fave author at the moment). I used to read loads of novels (stuff like Isabelle Allende, Coehlo, Herman Hesse, and even Anne Rice) but I don't have the time anymore.

Heroes:

My inspiring friends.

I Believe in Magic

I believe in the magic of love, of a smile, of intention. I believe in the magic of pulling a card and seeing the meaning as meant for myself. I believe in it because I look for it and whatever you ...
