About Me

Myspace Layouts
You Belong in Paris
Stylish and a little sassy, you were meant for Paris.
The art, the fashion, the wine, the men!
Whether you're enjoying the cafe life or a beautiful park...
You'll love living in the most chic place on earth. What City Do You Belong In?
Proudly supporting the TRUE L.A. Guns, not the so-called "Originals."
About Trina:
There really isn't much to say about me that hasn't been mentioned already.. But, here's the Cliffs Notes, for those with short attention spans (like me):
I:
-have a bit of a thing for drummers.. I have no idea what started it or where it started, but I have a bit of a drummer fetish, and it isn't going away any time soon.
-love love love metal music.. My favorite band, as you can see, is the band called L.A. Guns, and not the Tracii Guns cover band version..the REAL version...
-love to read history books..actually, I just like to read. But I mostly read history books, and books on the paranormal.
-love that Ghost Hunters program on Sci-Fi.
-am a bit obsessed with history. It's my favorite subject.. my favorite areas of study in history are British, Irish, American, and Canadian history.
-own A LOT of shoes. I usually buy shoes if I like the way they look.. it doesn't seem to matter if I can actually walk in the damn things.
-love to cook. I especially love to cook Italian, and Mexican food. Would love to learn how to cook Japanese food, but I don't know of any place to learn how to.
-am of German, Dutch, French, British and Iroquoian ancestry.. basically, I am what happens when representatives of each ethnic group in the population of Colonial New York marries..
-am a historical re-enactor (French and Indian War and American Revolution periods), and that feeds my passion for learning about styles of clothing throughout history.
-like to travel.. my dream is to go to L.A. and get drunk on the Sunset Strip at least once..
-like long walks on the beach... sipping mai-tais on the sand... just seeing if you were paying attention..I actually prefer shopping for vintage clothing and albums down in the Astoria section of New York City, or eating Mexican food in a restaurant on San Antonio's Riverwalk.. I'm not a big beach person (too much sun!).
-love hockey.. my team: The Boston Bruins!

Historical re-enacting, hockey, shopping, listening to 80s metal, reading, sewing, art, cooking, Japanese anime, concerts, acting

-Tim Curry (one of THE best character actors ever)
-Mel Brooks (my favorite movie director)
