Introduction

Hi everyone! My name is Jenny and I have been attending Sierra since this Spring. Before transferring to Sierra, I attended the University of San Francisco for a semester. Pre-collegiate life, I graduated from Loretto High School in Sacramento. I am an English major with a possible French minor and, once I have 60 units, my plan is to transfer to UC Berkeley. I just recently procured a job at a Jo-Ann's on Sunrise and Madison that opens in a few weeks, so currently I stock craft goods. So, here are a list of a few of my favorite things:

Bands/Artists: The Smiths, Morrissey, The Velvet Underground, David Bowie, and so much more. . .for more contemporary: Andrew Bird, Manchester Orchestra, Stars, Broken Social Scene, Elliott Smith, and The Killers.

Books: Anything by Oscar Wilde, Bret Easton Ellis, Augusten Bouroughs, Chuck Palahniuk, Jonathan Safran Foer, Hunter S. Thompson, or Kurt Vonnegut. I tend to read all of the works by one author at the same time--the last book I read was Less Than Zero by Bret Easton Ellis and all I have left is American Psycho, but I'm not sure if I want to read that one. . .eek.

Movies: Fight Club, Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas, Rocky Horror, The Royal Tenenbaums, The Boondock Saints, Amelie, Paris, Je T'aime, and Heathers.

TV Shows: Freaks and Geeks, Flight of the Conchords, Arrested Development, Project Runway, Weeds, The Office, and Scrubs.

Well, that's enough rambling for me! Feel free to ask me any questions, give me suggestions, or discuss any of these with me! :)
