Description
I am always at a loss when it comes to filling out these profile things, but here goes. I am a 25 year old, married female. Professionaly, I am a freelance graphic artist and web designer. I am also currently enrolled in "makup school" where I am learning to do professional makeup for film and photography. My hobbies include shopping, museums, movies, drawing, painting, tattooing, piercing and spending way too much time on the internet as I am addicted to online auction sites such as Ebay and Gothic Auctions and message boards. Please feel free to chat me up anytime. I look a little strange and I have a little bit of a bad attitute but I am down-to-earth and generally do not bite. There is nothing I love more than sitting out back at Park Pastries with friends, sipping cappuccinos and sharing local discoveries.

My favorite authors are Kurt Vonnegut, Hunter s. Thompson and David Sedaris. My all time favorite book is "Cat's Cradle" by Kurt Vonnegut.
What type of books do you like to read?
I am really snobby when it comes to literature. For the most part I enjoy black humor and satire. I enjoy science fiction but NOT fantasy. Pretty much anything that makes you think and produces evil chuckles.

I love mafia movies and anything with a "dark undertone. I enjoy David Lynch, Quentin Tartino, Tim Burton, Stanley Kuberick.. yadda, yadda, yadda. At the top of my list of favorite movies are Planet of the Apes (can't wait to see Burton's version), Pulp Fiction, Happiness, Brazi, Requiem For A Dream, Scarface, Paths of Glory, Apocalypse Now... there are too many. Asfar as T.V. goes I enjoy watching 6 Feet Under, Popular, Drew Carey and pretty much anything on DIcovery or TLC. I especially enjoy forensic/murder mystery shows. I will also admit that I have an unnatural addiction to 7th Heaven.

Some of my favorites include: The Beastie Boys, The Bloodhound Gang, Violent Femmes, DAVID BOWIE, The Talking Heads, Blondie, The Velvet Underground/Lou Reed, They Might Be Giants, Cake, Radiohead, Frank Sinatra, Bobby Darren, Eartha Kitt, Peggy Lee and many more

SHOPPING, drawing, playing with my dogs, going to the movies, internet auctioning, internet message boards, reading, drinking coffee.
What are some of your interests?
I am addicted to makeup and I love everything about it. I also do a lot of sewing and therefore spend much time in the garment district. I enjoy tattooing and piercing so I spend many weekends at tattoo conventions lately. I also enjoy visiting antique shops and hunting for those rare and beautiful Eames/Herman Miller finds.

Starting my own business :)
Hoboken questions
If you live in Hoboken, how long have you been here?
Going on 3 years now.
If you live in Hoboken, why do you live here?
I am originally from the Philadelphia/ South Jersey area. My husband and I moved to the Hoboken area because his company sent him to Grad school at Stevens and I figured it would be a good place to start my business.
What do you like about Hoboken?
I love the feel of the neighborhood, the architecture and the location.
What do you dislike about Hoboken?
The cost of living is a real pain in the rear. Sometimes the overcrowding gets to me (like when I'm trying to find a parking space). Otherwise, no complaints.
