About Me

I am me....I'm a 22 y/o 6th(this fall) year college student that kinda despises the connotation of being a college student in the middle american sense. I have 1 year of 6 left to get my bachelors of Architecture and minor in history..... I'm currently working as an intern for Olsen-Coffey Architects in Tulsa. I am a great appreciater of music, I love movies, I am mildly obsessed with older cars. My idea of therapy is tearing into/playing with/driving/changing, etc either my 68 buick electra 225 or my 68 Volksie. I plaster shit with tons of stickers and stuff cut out from mags.... is that collaging?? I am a drinker, but not a boozehound, I love random distractions, I am occasionaly angsted, I have 3 large tattoos and will have more, I come from a weird small town and am not ashamed of it, but I work to expand those horizons, I am a master of procrastination, I greatly value my friends and would do alot for them, I don't like politics.... let me rephrase that: politicians working for corporate bribes and not the people, I pity people who are blissfully ignorant and have no desire to learn, I think Pabst Blue Ribbon is great lager for the $$, I would like to move to Austin, TX, Seattle, Denver, Vancouver, some place interesting. Oh I want to go back to Poland and Germany, felt comfy there. Sometimes I like indie (but hate its connotation), sometimes I like psychobilly, sometimes industrial, sometimes punk.... I think you get the picture. I only order black "normal" coffee from coffee shoppes.... blows their minds, I like the stonewall, but I also like being able to talk to people at the same table, I hate pretension, but love intelligence, I loath superficiality, but scrutinize the details, I don't have cable, but am a fool for wikipedia, I love sushi and curry, but not at the same time, I have short relationships, but want more, I jokingly tell people I'm a badass, but realize I am not, I hate drama and will reject people who create it, I was a debate kid in hs, I love philosophy and history but suck at finishing a book..... I am me.

You Are Pop Art
When it comes to art, you're definitely not a snob.
You can appreciate the mainstream aspects of culture, even if you need to twist them a bit to make them your own.
Whether you're into comics, retro pinups, or bold colors, you embrace what's eye catching and simple.
As far as most other art goes, you consider it a little too elitist and high brow for your tastes! What Art Movement Are You?
