About Me

I decided that I needed a better about me blurb: I guess its after June so I can't say that I'm a recent college graduate any more- now I can say that I'm a young professional which probably sounds just as lame. In order to counter act that "lameness" I like to keep myself busy with music stuff, going to concerts, aimlessly walking the streets of NYC and pretending to play the bass...no seriously I'm bad. I like anything crafty and I make the best homemade gifts- which are obviously from the heart and not because I'm cheap or poor. I love 80’s movies (like most girls I have a sweet spot for John Hughes). I collect PEZ dispensers even though I don’t really like the candy. Thus leading me to what I think is the greatest food ever created – Tropical Dots- not regular dots but tropical. So, I think thats it, if you are still reading this and are that interested about my life then drop me a line.

My Interests

music, movies, making stuff, giving people 3 point presentations why they should do things, reading....

I'd like to meet:

Rushmore's- Max Fisher- Louis Garrel...Hopefully he speaks english well because I am horrible at french. Either way, I do speak the language of love and thats all that matters!

Apparently I am VH1's target demographic because I'm totally mesmorized by Rock of Love, The Pickup Artist, Mission Man band, Americas next top model... do I even need to go on listing yet another show from their stellar lineup...I didn't think so. I love The office, Greys Anatomy (Until it started sucking- which was the season 3 finale), I anticipate Heroes when I start watching it during the summer.

A Sad Turn Of Events for Music

Ok, is the music industry is such a sad and pathetic state that they can't even write new bad pop songs, they have to cover old ones.  I just heard on z100, a semi reputable radio station, a cove...
