Blackbird
Jay Ann Braddock
I'm twenty and I live in
Evanston, just north of Chicago. I live on in the Noyes
neighborhood, which is a great little place. We have
a cafe, a restaurant, a laundromat, a couple delis, a
barber shop, a guitar shop, a family-run grocery store
that has absolutely everything, and an arts center.
I'd never bother coming here if I didn't live here, but
I'm glad I do. I live with my gray bunny Twyla and two very
nice roommates, who are always gone because they have
boyfriends.
I go to Northwestern University; I'm a
junior in the comparative literary studies program, with
a concentration in poetry and a minor in linguistics. I have
no clue what I'll do with it.....I just know I'll be
writing. For now I work as a writing tutor at the
university. I'm trying to be more serious about school
this year.....we'll see how long that lasts.
I have
short dark hair and the only green eyes in my family.
I'm five-foot-six. I'm cynical but optimistic. I'm quiet but not at all shy.
I'm Irish and British, which gets confusing but I
balance it out. ;) I'm pretty smart but you'd never
realize it from talking to me.
I watch lots of tv.
I wear jeans or cords and thin sweaters. I I wear jewelled clips in my
hair. I don't chew gum. I believe in God. I'm not afraid of much and I
don't regret anything.
