About Me

..about me...well I have always been a bit of a quirky person. As a kid I enjoyed climbing trees, designing dresses, and pretending to be the next Mikhail Baryshnikov. These days, I enjoy playing my harmonica --note: I cannot ACTUALLY play any songs on it. I also love lifting weights, speaking of which, I should really be in with the likes of Arnold Schwarzenegger and Ronnie Coleman but somehow by mistake I got placed into this 5'0 tall girl body. Since being Arnold is not in my future, my goal is to become a fashion great..the best thing to hit the fashion industry since Coco Chanel's LBD. Well that's the plan anyway..if that does not work out I can always fall on my back up plan of being a rockstar or next great philosopher. Any of those professions would suit me just fine ;)

Today I was just doing my job at DKNY when this man runs up the escalator and says, "my fly on my trousers just broke, so my trousers are wide open!" I started laughing right in his face and then I sh...

My Dali Favourites.

While I was back home in America I picked up a Salvador Dali book which had most of his paintings. When I first saw his work back in high school I thought it was weird and slightly gross. But this tim...
