Katia's Modifications

Katia Raffaella Roberto is a graduate student in Library and Information Science at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign.  She is a chronic complainer and a vegetarian.  Katia's mother told her that she was a good child until she reached the age of 4 at which time she became the spawn of Satan.  She acquired her tattoos before she started library school.

i have three tattoos: an egyptian hieroglyph of a cat, a radical feminist symbol with "free to fight" written above it (and here's a low resolution photo of it. hey, you try scanning your upper arm sometime.), and the tibetan bell of eternity--also known as "that thing on the cover of the ignition cd". mine is considerably smaller than that, by the way.

Katia has promised to supply us with pictures of her other tattoos as soon as she gets a camera.  Also, she will be getting her lip pierced 9/21 so we are all looking forward to hearing what her boss has to say when she shows up for her assistantship on Tuesday!

Update:  Katia got her lip pierced 9/21as planned, and so far her boss hasn't even noticed!  Unbelievable!  Stay tuned for more details.

Update:  This message came from Katia via the guestbook on 1/25/99:  i just thought i'd inform y'all that i took my lip ring out a while ago because it kept whacking my bottom teeth and annoying me no end. yeah, i'm a sellout. feel free to mock me.  in happier news, i'm getting another tattoo...sooner or later.  second window, drive through.
