About Me

Aspiring b-girl.I like to try my hand at everything, though I always always always return to art. As much as being an engineer may sound like a cool major, it pays the bills. I think I'm going to continue going to college for the rest of my life until I finally break down and get myself a degree in the fine arts. For now I'll have to keep ..ing in the wee hours of the morning instead of sleeping. Life is short, Art is long. ... oh my. I just want to find all of the unloved pet rocks in the world and set them free!Apparently, you can take the girl out of Jersey, but you can't take the Jersey out of the girl.You Are 87% North Jersey

You are totally North Jersey! You really know the area and have Jersey pride. Chances are you just got back from being down the shore! Unless you're taking this test in wintertime in which case you just got back from Christmas shopping in Paramus. Unless it's Sunday, in which case... Hey how come I didn't see you in church today? =P

My Interests

Belly dancing, Bay-to-Breakers!, modern art, expression, reading, running, record shopping, independent films, sketching, people-watching, physics, baking cookies, catalyzing chain reactions, working on classic cars, billiards, exploring SF, sleeping-in, bowling, bar-hoppin' and be-boppin', bike riding, outdoor-sy type stuff, leading conga lines (especially at weddings), camping, observing the spiders outside my front door.

I'd like to meet:

One hell of a Scrabble player. The mysterious Adam who was at Smedsfest but was there only while I was asleep Saturday night. Mark's Dad, because he looks like Willy Wonka. (There is no life I know to compare with pure imagination. Living there you'll be free if you truly wish to be.) Someone who will play a game of chess with me in Washington Square Park. An Englishman in New York (who won't stalk me by telephone). My neighbors across the courtyard who walk around their kitchen shirtless or otherwise encourage me to people-watch. The cashier from the Magnolia bakery. The world-champion arm wrestler because I bet he/she could come in handy when I can't open a jar of tomato sauce. Myself, age 6.
