you can always find me wearing skinny jeans (outside of work, that is). i live in them. i never leave home without my purple eyeshadow and lipgloss. i get along with most people and make friends very easily. i love music and have been to so many shows, i've lost count. i'm always up for a drink. friends are really important to me. i'm not a religious person.

i'm originally from cleveland, ohio. and no cleveland doesn't rock, drew carey, although at least you have your "the price is right" hosting gig :) what brought me to mke? basically, college. i went to marquette where i quickly discovered that i wasn't very much like the "typical" student there. (a lot of marquette students are from the suburbs of chicago, so think cubs fans basically -- sorry mu students, but it's true).

above all, i'm really just looking to meet any and all interesting people.

my height. yeah, i know i'm short. but isn't short just another word for really cool? :)

i go through phases where i read a lot and then i don't. i think the last thing i read was "hell's angels" by hunter s. thompson, which was very interesting. forget everything you ever heard about them.

one of my favorite movies ever is blue velvet. i've seen a lot of really random movies...netflix is good for that. i do love a good horror movie. we're talking the texas chainsaw massacre or suspiria, no saw movies for me.

i think the new atlas sound album is fantastic. i've also been heavily listening to grizzly bear, the beta band, passion pit, memory tapes, neon indian, dolorean, vega and miike snow lately. i also love the velvet underground, joy division and animal collective to name a few.

i just recently discovered casablanca's vegetarian lunch buffet. delicious. i also recently ate at coquette cafe for the first time. loved it!

lip gloss, skinny jeans, string cheese, text messages, textsfromlastnight.com and boxed wine.

getting into trouble.

this isn't really "private" in the sense this question is referring to, but it's something that people never believe when i tell them.

i went to an all-girls catholic high school. trust me, i know. it was probably one of the worst decisions of my life. the reason i did it was i didn't want to go to the same high school my parents went to. basically, i was rebelling against the tradition, but wow, did that backfire. usually, the response i get when i tell people this is disbelief followed by, "you're too nice to have gone to an all-girls school!"
