I attend college to major in family social service. Im also seriously thinking about a minor in art history; just because I love it so dang much. I think Im awkward; I get along much better with kids than I do adults. Id rather spend my Friday night with a few close friends, some crayons and coloring books, and a bag of popcorn than go out and party. I love to read, write, sew and paint. Not everyone understands my sense of humor. I thought that I was a punk in highschool, but have gotten out of that scene (though it still holds a special place in my heart). Im generally happy most of the time and have a "fake it 'til you make it" attitude the rest of the time.

I have a strange attraction to anything with spots; maybe thats why I love cows so much. haha. I adore stripes too. Anything black and white checkered pattern is love.

Most of my money goes to (aside from gas for my car) fabric remnants, quarter flats, CDs of local bands, yarn, Arizona teas, books and coffee.

My favorite color is green; any shade. Love deep, dark greens and bright greens the best though. At school, my bed sheets are bright green on one side and neon pink on the other (my poor roommate!) Which means I love pink as well. Im good with just about any color actually, except that I really dislike purple.

I collect: pins, buttons, postcards with art reproductions, comic books, black and white photographs, old books and free music samplers.

( Please dont send bulk packages of candies or sweets. One or two single treats is lovely but mass ammounts are far too tempting. )

I really like anything except rap, though I am in a ska kick at the moment. Some bands/artists I adore are : A Girl Named Craig, The Aquabats, Billy Idol, Casey Stratton, The Classic Crime, Cute is What We Aim For, Dispatch, Fair, Five Iron Frenzy, Hellogoodbye, Queen, The Matches, The Mighty Mighty Bosstones, Mutemath, Newsboys, The Nightmares, Powerspace, Ray LaMontagne, Rude King, Save Ferris, Ska-P, Streetlight Manifesto, The Toasters

American Beauty, Elephant, Ella Enchanted, Everything is Illuminated, Garden State, Monty Python and the Holy Grail, Little Miss Sunshine, Lord of the Rings, Sixteen Candles, X-Men, Zoolander

My tv always seems to be on, but I dont watch much; I really just like the noise. However, I will sit and watch: House M.D., Inked, Joan of Arcadia, Lost, Made, Project Runway, Six Feet Under, Surface

I love to knit, sew, Ive made more pillows than I know what to do with, I used to be really good on the potter's wheel and wish I hadnt stopped, I also love scrapbooking but dont seem to have much time lately to do so.
