About Me


WWW.THEFIRSTECHO.COM
I tend to become obsessed with songs 3 months before everyone else becomes obsessed with them.
I dig vampires, especially those with British accents.
I'm bicoastal, but that may just be a safe way of saying I'm turning 100% L.A.
I get put on lists.
I believe that there is a chair for every ass (metaphorically and literally).
The only movie in which I can recite every line of dialogue is Clue.
I was there when the wall came tumbling down.
Everybody wants to rule the world...and so do I.

My Interests

I'd like to meet:


1. David and Victoria Beckham
2. Diablo Cody
3. Alanis Morissette
4. Madeline Kahn
5. Christopher Pike
6. Oprah
