Eclectic

Jack of all trades. Thorough science geek with unaccounted desk and diskspace donated to ecology, a fetish for charcoal and black ink sketches, the New Yorker, a golden lab she'd call Dane, making salmon and bruschettas to go with the wine, watching the power play in politics, pledged allegiance to Mia Michaels, Sonja Tayek and Tyce Diorio and Tom Hanks and Meg Ryan, a subscription to InStyle and a desire to own all the Narciso Rodriguez creations, eternal love for Montreal, and an eternal debt to McGill.

Tenderfoot

Just how do you start off a blog?



I've been doodling since I was ten, published my first flimsy poem a year later in the school magazine, and a couple such stints in high school, an editorial position with the publication by the student's society, and several calculated Facebook notes later, I think blogging might actually be long overdue.


Especially when you're someone who's thinking about stem cells one instant, Narciso Rodriguez the next.

Especially when you devour a Ruskin Bond, Paulo Coehlo or Kafka with the same voracity as a Thomas Friedman or a Malcolm Gladwell.

Especially when you can't do without regulated exercise, but you'd rather practice pointy toes and straight torsos dancing Latino and do those laps without foregoing the underwater cartwheels.




Unfortunately in a world where compartments are the best solution for information processing or storage or whatever else, I'm still looking for a haven for a jack of all trades.
