Vincent Gallo.....talented, beautiful, talented...
I've always loved making things, and that has a lot to do with who I am today. I'm very into aromatherapy, making soap and many other beauty products! For some reason I've become, I guess, "passionate" about it. Sounds dumb (to me) to say - to be "passionate" about making SOAP of all things - but it is true. I love making things. Especially things that smell amazing and that people will really get excited about.
I consider myself to be a pretty funny girl with an advanced (or maybe the opposite!)sense of humor. Even when I'm in the worst of moods, I'm pretty much helpless if you put a clip from Patton Oswalt, David Cross, Will Arnett, Zach Galifianakis, etc in front of my face.
I also love travelling. I wish I could just travel the rest of my life away. Maybe in my next life when I'm born a millionaire! I want to go everywhere. Japan would be cool. Australia, England, Germany, Italy, Belgium again, Korea, Thailand, everywhere!
I love art. Comic book art, and lowbrow art are my favorites. I think I've listed the majority of my favorite artists in my "interests" section. I love great movies - Sundance Festival is the best, and I'm glad it's held here in Utah!
I'm way way way into comic books. I've accepted the fact that I am a "comic dork", except NOT...a dork... so much. :P
It used to just be the little cutesie ones I'd read...Little Lulu, Casper the Friendly Ghost, Archie & Friends, Betty & Veronica, Richie Rich, Donald Duck, etc....I had a huge box of them that my dad had picked up from a yard sale when I was little.
But NOW that I have been introduced to the modern world of comic books....I'm doomed for life!!!
I also have 1 hamster (Chippy), and 3 awesomely rad cats; Bird/Pepper (first picture, with orange toy), Champion/Chicken/Mustard/Dumpster (close up), and our new kitty Frankie/Purplezzzz/Bug (third, one eyed), who have their own myspace accounts! Bird eats beans, lettuce, and everything else; Champs is pretty much just a champion of everything and enjoys the sound of his cries in the bathtub, and Frankie/Bugs is constantly farting and attempting hamster murder! My cats are awesome, and they all have flat faces. :)
I always wanted to be a banana!
