Hey guys! Here are some pictures that will hopefully give you a taste of who I am and the things that i’m into !
This up here is my dorm room. I’m from Brooklyn so i’m fairly close to Baruch, but I really wanted to start to live somewhat on my own and of course, away from home as most kids do. I wouldn’t change my decision for the world. There are some trippy posters, a backlight, hello kitty toys / memorabilia everywhere, an animal print blanket, a keep calm and rave on poster, a tie dye tapestry with fractals, a lotus flower, and buddha in the center, and my beautiful dancer hoop hanging above it (i’m learning the art of hoop dancing).
Here is my best friend Nicole. She lives in New Jersey but we still manage to see one another at LEAST once a month and do everything together from job applications, to shopping, to studying, to raving, etc. She is an inspiration to me in many ways and will continue to inspire me until the day we part.
Here is my other best friend and boyfriend Christian. I will say that we are the absolute best at making the most horrid faces you will ever see. I’ve chosen to showcase this (extremely partially/mildly) in some pictures. In short for now, I love him more than I love myself. I don’t want to go into my feelings here but if you guys are interested in hearing my sappy thoughts than feel free to ask me I looove talking about him.
Here are some photos of me at events (or raves if you wish). The first is of me and my friend Michael Wolf who I met through video chat and have been friends with ever since. The second is simply me showing off my arms of bracelets. In both pictures you can see that I’m wearing plastic beaded jewelry. These pieces are made by ravers and traded. They’re called “kandi”. You can make simple single bracelets and other pieces or more elaborate 3 dimensional things like the ones on my arms in the picture of me. They represent something called PLUR. An acronym standing for Peace, Love, Unity, and Respect. Ravers make them and wear them to events and give them away to their friends and strangers that they meet for many reasons. They represent a piece of your time and creativity that is then passed on to others. You can also see that in both pictures i’m wearing “weird” costumes. I’m very into costuming, cosplay, and other eccentric outfits.
I own a small individual company entitled ElectriCITY Gogo Wear and Costume Service. It started off with me simply making Gogo dancer outfits with bras, hotpants, underwear, skirts, boot covers, and other crazy pieces and was called ElectriCITY Bras. Now I am branching out into costumes as a whole and include makeup, hair, and other costume pieces in my services. I am at Baruch for this reason. It is my goal to take this business and make it into a touring costuming company that Costumes and does hair & makeup for everything from gogo dancers to circus acts to burlesque. I want to own and make this company successful. The first picture is of my boyfriend and I behind my vendors table at a rave that I sold my bras at recently. The second is a picture of one of the bra/headband sets i’ve made. (EDC stands for Electric Daisy Carnival – a huge electronic dance music festival)
Above is a sample of some of the makeup looks that i’ve done.
Last, but most DEFINITELY not least, my friends. Here are some pictures of my friends and I. I love them with all of my heart and just from these few pictures you can get a taste of how absolutely insane we all are. Eccentric is not even the word, simply insane. We have the most absolutely crazy stories and always adventure together doing the dumbest and wildest things. Aside from the crazyness, they are the most loving and accepting group of people I know. What I adore about them most is how accepting they are of everyone around them and how fantastic their vibes are. They can make anyone into their friend and that is phenomenal. We’re just a family of what some would call “new age hippies”.
(P.S.: Sorry this is so late. I did some extra work on it.)
