Location: Eastside Milwaukee About me: I work at the Milwaukee Symphony Orchestra and enjoy the arts scene, but I am tone deaf and can barely draw a stick figure. I have really neat handwriting, does that count as being artistic? I love to run, bike, play tennis, soccer, kickball, salsa dance and watch foreign/indie movies. I am fluent in Spanish and my Palestinean grandmother is bitter that I can't lace together a sentence in Arabic.

| The A.D.D. Generation | |
| Straddling the gray line of GenX and GenY, I am torn as to where my loyalties lay. I relish in the advancements from the tech-savvy Generation X, but cannot identify with the stereotypical reputation as being apathetic, cynical or a slacker, like members of GenY. Allow me to make my case on... | |
