I am articulate, industrious, and monochromatic.
My Self-Summary
I was an over-achiever. That stopped being satisfying, so now I
just play things by ear and try to keep my life as simple as
possible. I just started bartending, and I'm having all kinds of
fun. I love traveling, be it a plane ride to Budapest or just a car
trip to Milwaukee. I think Wisconsin is fabulous, and plan to call
it home for at least the next few years. Currently, I'm looking for
adventure, wherever that may lead me.
What I’m doing with my life
Finishing up a degree in English Literature and Political Science,
bartending, driving my car from city to city, planning parties for
my sorority and my GSA, and sleeping late as often as possible.
I’m really good at
losing my cell phone, translating Mean Girls into Hungarian, jazz
guitar, beer pong, listening to my drunk friends.
The first things people usually notice about me
My damn hair.
My favorite books, movies, music, and food
Authors: Jeanette Winterson, Ali Smith, Thomas Pynchon, Donna
Tartt, and that old drunken womanizer Ernest Hemingway.
Movies: Apocalypse Now, North By Northwest, The Great Gatsby, and
anything awful yet hilarious (Sorority Row).
Music: M.I.A., The Stooges, New Order, ELO, Yeah Yeah Yeahs,
Journey, CCR, Le Tigre, Queen, REO Speedwagon, 80's Madonna,
Fleetwood Mac, NOFX, and tragic Tori Amos cover tracks.
Food: I live off beer, Diet Coke, and take-out.
The six things I could never do without
1.) My brother
2.) Cruise control
3.) Bowling
4.) An emergency pack of cigarettes
5.) Privacy
6.) The letter 'e'
I spend a lot of time thinking about
traveling more and how to get the money to do it, Australian porn,
how many American flags I can own, my hair, whether colored jeans
are a good idea, cowboy boots vs. vans, my brother and how he is
doing, canoeing, longboarding, seeing mountains to the soundtrack
of "Rumors" by Fleetwood Mac, riot grrl, and flavored whiskey.
On a typical Friday night I am
drinking. with friends. like you. and others.
The most private thing I’m willing to admit here
I'm currently drinking raspberry lemonade out of a bedazzled purple
cocktail glass with my name on it.
