You are a Career Girl!
You may not be a CEO yet, but you're well on your way to success.
You take your career seriously, and you wouldn't stop working for any guy!
An independent woman, you pay for your own car, clothes, and housing.
And men appreciate that - at least, the ones as driven as you are. What Kind of Girl Are You?

Which Trainspotting Character Are You?

My Interests

I have a huge appreciation for anything involved in the arts . It inspires me to no end and I wonder how I can aspire to such things. I sing, dance, design. I love theatrics and I love the process of creating. I love being involved in the conception and infusion of ideas and thoughts.

Beyond art I love geeking out. Put me in front of anything mechanical or electrical and I'll have fun for hours. I get very excited over technology. Electronic music, fusions of genres, cycling class, hip hop(dance), theatre, musicals, classical, funky beats, computers, computer generated, camping, friends, responsible partying, ending up in crazy places with equally crazy people.

I like the comfort of curling up with someone you've know for ages or that exciting charge of someone you anticipate about. I like being supportive and being useful. I hate sleeping cuz I feel like I'm wasting my time. I like the feeling of dawn when you hadn't slept yet and you knew you had a memorable night. I truly appreciate all the proven constants in my life especially the people.

I'd like to meet:


B!! jeah!!

Music:

My favorite types of music span an array. .but the unifying thread between them all is that they fuse different genres together. I love classical with a kick ass beat, hip hop with an electronic hook, hip hop with an opera aria, rock with a bigband and reggae influence, theatrical rock, rock that uses DJs and rappers. I love house with an industrial feel. Or acid jazz. I'm really into the resurgence of 80s inspired music. Same tight feel, more intelligent lyrics. I like all music except: country and HEAVY rock.

Musicians I listen to: Jesper Dahlback, Mark Farina, Tosca, Avril Lavigne, Christina Aguilera (yes yes I know but girl can SING!), Koma & Bones, Nelly Furtado, Postal Service, the Faint, Sarah McClaughlin, Modest Mouse, Incubus, Tori Amos, Bjork, DJ Icey, Dido, Alicia Keys, Nine Inch Nails, the Roots, Outkast, Frou Frou, Gotan Project, No Doubt, Prodigy, Plump DJs, Timo Maas, Benny Benassi, Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Missy Elliot, Billie Holliday, Lauryn Hill, Samual Barber, Fionna Apple, Linkin Park, Portishead, White Stripes, Aphex Twin, The Killers, the Arcade Fire, the Shins and so on and so forth.

Movies:

Quirky comedies and dramas are my favorite genres. Godfather 1&2, American Beauty, Snatch, Fight Club, Eternal Sunshine of a Spotless Mind, Garden State, Amelie, Secretary, the Royal Tenanbaums, I love the Huckabees, Dogma, Scarface, Glory, Momento, Secretary, Interview with the Vampire, Lost in Translation, Punch Drunk Love, Star Wars 1,2,3 (the OLD ones), Shawshank Redemption, Chicago, Requiem for a Dream, Spun, Sin City, the 40 yr Old Virgin, Kinsie! Ok and apparently I like all movies George Clooney directs: Syriana, Confessions of a Dangerous Mind, Good Night and Good Luck

Television:

I honestly don't watch TV that much anymore. CSI:Las Vegas seems to be the only thing left I watch. And then Kari makes me watch Intervention with her. If there aren't things like ligature marks, strangulation, blunt force trauma, and addiction in it, it's not worth watching.

Books:

"Dry" by Augusten Buroughs. Funny shit.

Heroes:

Curious George
