What isn't? Writing, writing, writing . . . which these days is about make up, hair, skincare, fashion, shopping, celebrities and girly stuff (check out herstoknow.com this Spring!) but that doesn't mean I don't explore my deeper thoughts and emotions when I'm not getting paid. And of course DANCING . . . which for me involves a complicated dynamic of pleasure and pain, my trying to manage my own passion and devotion to the craft: enduring the frustration of trying to be the best I can be and between struggles finding those moments when I realize I truly love doing this.
Music
Cannot live without the IPod. I walk the streets to my own soundtrack and I can get so into it that I must look insane but it adds an entire dimension to my day. If you can imagine a movie without a soundtrack and how dull it would be without music - this is life without an MP3 player.
Movies
Of all time: Gone With The Wind, Foreign: Amelie, Indochine, Hero, Horror: The Grudge, Dance: Showgirls, Flashdance, Historical: Amadeus, Marie Antoinette, Based on a Book: Memoirs of A Geisha . . .
Television
America's Next Top Model - because carnage never looked so fabulous! Grey's Anatomy (YES McDreamy I'm waiting for you), So You Think You Can Dance (and we're all "friends" here see), all forms of LAW & ORDER (if you know me you've been forced to sit through at least one episode), Cold Case (because it's morbidly exciting), and (of course) SEX AND THE CITY!
Books
Ones similar to that one I'm trying to write! Think Sex in the City, only San Francisco hence much less fashionable and fewer sexy single men! But lots of ambitious creative endeavors and career pursuits, plenty of hilarious disaster dates, and a lot of heartfelt reflection on life as a young woman that's both fun and meaningful at the same time. OK, now that's what I want the New York Times to say about it. In the meantime, read my blogs and tell me how I'm doing!
Heroes
I'm still waiting. Where are you? No seriously, most of (or all of) the time you have to save yourself. Sink or swim? When you're REALLY in trouble it's up to you to save yourself, even if that means asking for help.

About me: I created my own profile using nUCLEArcENTURy.COM and you should too!
Who am I? Good Question. When I figure out who I am I will finally make some REAL progress on that book I'm writing. The answer will require more than my MySpace page. When I surely know who I am maybe I'll be able to recognize my perfect mate in another, find the most suitable career and make nothing but mutually satisfying friendships with like individuals. Sounds wonderful. In the meantime I'll settle for the ever changing faces of me that has a good day then a bad ones, who smiles, waves and hugs but gives dirty looks and cold shoulders too. No one is perfect. I'll stick to imperfections that will never affect you so that you'll still like me. I'm clumsy. I accidentally break common household objects often - even ones you didn't think could break. I trip on everything. I have a tendency of attempting complex dance moves when I've had a lot to drink - which means I have a habit of falling. But I never hurt anyone around me and there's never a dull moment! I've been to so many places around the world, seen many curious and amazing things, met such diverse fascinating people and the only thing I know for certain if that I barely know anything at all. IF YOU REALLY WANT TO LEARN ABOUT ME THEN READ MY BLOGS . . . I really pour a lot into my writing.
