I am here for Friends and Networking

About Me

Extremely boring, shy girl who is pursuing a degree of some kind in the years to come. Definitely ambiguous when it comes to everything. I am woman, hear me roar. I will eat you alive with style & grace. It has been said that I am extremely serious & uptight. Ah... if only these people really got up close & personal... I have a smile that will disarm you & a caring demeanor. I am occasionally witty & definitely opinionated. I am eccentric & exotic. I live for the quest. I am an Aquarius, which really should explain it all. I am a dreamer who can make dreams come true. I am optimistic most days with a twist of cynicism that sometimes shines through. I defy logic and feed on my emotions. I live for love & thrive on my self-destruction. I enjoy repeating words over & over again until they have no meaning, & looking at myself in the mirror until I don't recognise that it's me I'm looking at. I am a shell with a soul in search of other souls who are looking for some sort of social consciousness. I am a hippie. But I smell good.

My Interests

Music, bein' artsy fartsy, hangin' with cool, weird people, dancin' my ass off, traveling, & being a dork. I also love cooking when the time allows.

I'd like to meet:

An honest politician. Ha, ha, ha. No, really.

pretty eclectic taste... but I love chk chk chk (!!!), Iron & Wine, Ani, Tori, NIN, VAST, PJ Harvey, Iggy, the Stooges, tool, APC, Portishead, Lemon Jelly, Poe, Loretta Lynn, Django Reinhardt, Flunk, the Cure, french music with accordians, Rasputina, Ulrich Schnauss, Dolly Parton, Radiohead, Miles Davis, Charlie Parker, Willie Nelson, swing, Be Good Tanyas... and tons more. In the local music scene my faves are the Gypsy Strings, and Mike Elgert who is doin' his solo thing (very nice, very nice!) I miss Super TC... le sigh... One of the cutest, but very rockin' local bands is the Smashed Windows. I also enjoy the Decks.
