About Me

I'm a 27 year old, wannabe diva from Mississippi. I'm a big time girly girl...which means I have tons of shoes and love to shop. I wasn't always like this though, I used to weigh 100 lbs. more and hated myself. I only wore black back then mostly, since I've lost that weight, I felt like a total life change was in order!

Outside of my crafty hobbies, I'm an avid reader and writer. I teach Middle School English

I love all things pink (especially dark pink/fuschia-ish) and sparkly!!

Some of my favorite things are Hello Kitty, anything related to the J-pop culture (it's sparkly and cool!), and anything French. I have a French minor and adore the culture!

Favorite Music

I like everything from French Hip Hop to Italian Opera. Some of my favorites are Trans-Siberian Orchestra, Raphael, Enzo, Sophie Milman, Marie Laforet, Eminem, Aerosmith, Selena, Queen, Hole, Blondie, Alanis, Nirvana, Donna De Lory, Jimi Hendris, Weezer, Tom Petty, Cranberries, Beck...and that's maybe 1/1000th of the stuff I like...see I told you EVERYTHING lol

Favorite Books

If you thought the music category was bad...ugh!

I like all kinds of fiction, but horror is my favorite! I don't like Stephen King though, go figure! I like Dean Koontz, Patricia Cornwell, Neil Gaiman and Terry Pratchett as far as the better known writers go. I also love Piers Anthony.

I also have a huge affinity for older British Literature, some of my favorites being Paradise Lost and anything by Jonathan Swift.

Other than that, I'm a freak for self-help books. In particular, I adore Girl Seeks Bliss, Hip Tranquil Chick: A guide to life on and off the yoga mat, and The Money Book for the Young, Fabulous, and Broke.

Favorite Movies

Goodness, I'm going to end up with a novel here!

Ok, I love horror movies...let's just leave it at that :P

Favorite Television

Lost and Numb3rs are by far my favorite shows, but anything with incredibly sexy men usually wins me over.

Favorite Crafts

This could be as bad as the music and books category lol

I'm in craft overload, I like to make jewelry, make altered journals and planners, decoupage, sew, paint glass, cross stitch and I'm learning to embroider, but my favorite thing to do is knit....especially socks.

Wow, it doesn't look so bad in print...
