I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122m pursuing my B.S. in Communications with concentrations in advertising and screenwriting. One day I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122d like to be running my own advertising agency, making mad dough and coming up with commercial ideas that involve farting monkeys or other things that parent advocacy groups would deem inappropriate. <\/p>\n<p>I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ve been consuming massive amounts of media since the age of two, which turned me into a pop culture snob of sorts, but not one of those snobs that needs to use Grey Poupon on everything. However, I do have a taste for the finer things in life like strippers, PBR and Warrant\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s 1990 magnum opus &#8220;Cherry Pie.&#8221; Most of the time I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122m enjoying these things all at once while wearing a strand of pearls and an adorable argyle sweater. I would like to think of myself as classy on the outside and sleazy on the inside. <\/p>\n<p>I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ve been an avid reader of The Impulsive Buy since 2005, but never posted any comments on reviews since I really didn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t get into the blogging scene until recently when I started my own that focuses on advertising.
