Another getting to know you thread

[LuvLady]

Hi everyone.

My name is Kate.

I am a 3rd year law student. I work part-time as a nanny, and recently got another job at a cafe to help pay for my trip to Vegas!

Currently single -

I don't really have a fave U2 member... I luv all of them for different reasons.

WHOA! We DO sound alike...kinda strange.
What does it mean if you're "Pre-med?" (I'm from Canada--we don't have that).
I know..I'm not looking forward to spending the rest of my life in school either. AS if that's not enough, EVERYONE in this blasted university wants to be a doctor too! (Can we say, "competition??")

"The Edge plays a mournful, ejaculatory guitar solo in 'Love is Blindress', stabbing out thick emotional blues notes that linger and then fall away like tears. "A more eloquent prayer than anything I could say," Bono reflects.

Pre-med just means you're an undergraduate student taking classes required for Medical School. STRESSFULL!!!!!! I'm just a sophomore, so I have a long way to go. I'm just starting the whole organic chemistry series...basically the hardest class EVER!

Here we go ...

I'm 28 years old.

I work for the United States Postal Service( Motto:WHAT? MORE ANTHRAX?) as a CFS clerk. When you fill out a change-of-address form, and all your mail is forwarded to a remote fishing village in Alaska -- well, that might be my fault!

I am single, but potentially taken.( I am not clear about this, as the guy I go out with is very quiet!)

A family friend of ours was the one who totally evangelized me on U2.(She also evangelized me into going to the same college she did ... but that's another story!) Seeing ZooTv is what completely got me, hook, line, and sinker! I've been a fan ever since.
My favorite band member:

He is just so cute!
Bono in leather pants, however, is very tempting!

This is a fun game. I'll play. I'm Sara.

I am a poet.

That makes no money.

I am a graduate student studying poetry writing.

That also makes no money.

I make money by teaching intro composition here at the university, so that would be the most likely to qualify as a "job." However, I don't consider it my primary occupation.

I am single. I feel like just typing that carries so much baggage! But that's okay.

I love love love Bono. Sometimes I've wanted to break free and 'sample' some other members of U2, but they just don't do it for me like he does. HUBBA HUBBA!!!

"I am a sexy mofo, what can I say?" --What Larry really says to himself when he looks into the mirror every morning

Question from Caller:we want to know how he's maintained his youthful looks. we think he looks so much younger than the rest of the band

Larry:let me put it this way. Michael Jackson got the idea of the oxygen tent from me. and all this hanging out w/ monkeys and shit like that, it's all to do w/ that.

I really liked your review of the NY shows. Are you going to any more shows?

I have gone to Europe once...when I was 2 years old.

I really wish that one day I will be able to go and see and visit all the places and paintings I am studying right now. Though I guess the Metropolitean Museum of Fine Arts in NY would be a great way to start.

Hey Naya! Oh, I really hope that you do get the chance to go to Europe someday. There really is nothing like seeing all of the paintings and buildings in person- I was very fortunate to study in Paris while I was in college, and it was one of the best experiences of my life. You should really look into whether your university has study-abroad programs. But if you can't make it across the Atlantic, definitely come to New York! the Met has a wonderful collection- particularly 19th century European painting (all the big names- Degas, Manet, Monet, etc.). and if you're into modern art, MOMA and the Whitney have very extensive collections.

As for me doing more shows, well, i'm really burned out right now (way too little sleep over the past week!). however, i won 2 free plane tickets to anywhere in the USA at my law firm's Christmas party last year. I need to use them by Dec. 31st, so- although i'm not crazy about the idea of flying right now- i just might have to go to the last LA show. definitely not sure about that, though.

ps- I *knew* it was about the finger-licking! LOL
