THINGS ABOUT ME, OR THE LITTLE THINGS I ENJOY.
**BIRTHPLACE?** topeka, ks **FOOD?**italian or mexican **COLOR?**rich colors-dark blue, mahogony, crimson, gold, emerald green, silver, black, orange, etc. **HOLIDAY?**halloween, 4th of july **MUSIC?**everything...i'll listen to mostly anything but modern country. some genres i listen to: electronica/trip-hop/house/dance/ambient, classic/hard/new rock, bluegrass, blues, indie, alternative, soul/motown, metal, grunge, classical, retro (80's style), punk, ska, reggae, celtic, etc. **COMIC BOOKS/VIDEO GAMES?** yeah, okay, i used to read them, and i still play games when i'm stuck at home with no car or cash. **PIERCINGS?** two: naval and eyebrow **TATTOO?** just one; front of left hip/pelvis, trinity symbol in circle (self-designed) **SPORTS?** running long-distance, soccer, some softball **MUSICAL?** some hand drumming (just a hobby), xylophone/bells, some piano, some singing. **ARTISTIC?** i love doing henna/mehndi. it's a type of body art originating from india. a dark staining paste is made, and when applied to the skin and taken care of correctly, the designs made can last up to a month. it's also a great way to see what a tattoo would look like on your body before getting it.
i also like to draw-i prefer india ink as a medium. i love mixing medias though. i'm interested in getting into digital art. **OTHER?** what i'm made of on the outside: navajo, souix, and iowa tribes. also german, irish, and scottish.
