About

Me. Living in NY, Trying to write my thesis, but preoccupied with life, love, art and everything else that brings a smile on my face. it's gonna be random because I love Godard, France Gall, goat cheese, creativity, Mad Men, walking barefoot in the grass, pan's flute, 60's music, Nouvelle vague, hand on hand action, blooming period, Art deco, the color green, Delta blues on a rainy night, Marianne Faithfull, hogging the covers, random dancing, yelling at the TV, epicurian pleasures, Scotch, Improv, eggplants, Surrealism, feeling like I'm in a Woody Allen movie, experimental cooking, passionate hair-grabbing, passionate air-guitar playing, snowstorms, pointless arguments, heavy novels, salt-water hair, french yé-yé, Kierkegaard, locking eyes, running, watching paint dry,kissing, Moe from the Simpsons, twirling, the word cahoots, futurism, quoting movies, cartoons of ducks, board games, shoes that ultimately hurt my feet but look Grwahawwwh, not that many TV shows, touching suede, Christopher Guest's brain, brushing my teeth but not my hair, afternoon delight, zombie movies, glitter art, being too much, artists & muse couples, reading while walking, Shiraz, impromptu musicals, and making collages. So this is my life, collage-style...
and please be forgiving, I'm used to french, english is only my second language...

Looking for something specific?

 

Yes, I did a stupid chain survey. But so did 50 other people (+ counting...)

1. Ten years ago I was:

About to move in with my goth boyfriend that I thought was so cool. We were probably painting the apartment some crazy rasberry color ( I remember we put aluminum paper all over a wall…)

I had just finished High School, was getting into litterature, probably reading one of Emile Zola’s novel for the first time…

Had a crazy psychedelic meets goth meets 60’s love child meet medieval princess thing going on, being just out of school uniform… 

2. Five things on today’s to do list:

  • Find time to write the thesis
  • Go out and buy lots of fruits and veggies
  • See an old friend from like ten years ago
  • Find new sunglasses or superglue the ones I sat on
  • go running. go running. and go running. I have to motivate myself.

3. Things I’d do if I were a billionaire:

  • Go to some tropical place with only girlfriends for like two weeks
  • Build me the kitchen of my dreams. Or hire a personnal chef. I love my food.
  • yes, of course, help others. Probably through schools/ education
  • Invest in medical research for allergies. I suffer from deadly nuts/fruits allergies, and would give anything to be able to enjoy my plate without the worries
  • Do a kick ass absolutely crazy party, extravagant, with like the Rolling Stones playing or something.

4. Three bad habits:

  • Social smoking when I am out drinking with smokers friends
  • being resentful
  • Procrastinating

    5. Six places I’ve lived:

    • Montreal, Quebec
    • New York
    • Toronto, Canada
    • Zurich, Switzerland
    • London, England

    hmmm only five for me. For now.

    6. Six jobs I’ve had in my life:

    • Babysitting monstruous kids ( It IS a job! )
    • librarian
    • Bookseller
    • research assistant/university
    • mail room girl
    • Traductor/book writer/editor
