Suzanne Stern's Profile

Occupation: Community Section Editor
Hometown: Evanston, Illinois
Favorite Bars: The one's that have short lines, cheap drinks, and fun people, but somehow I always end up at Brother's.
Favorite Music: The Rolling Stones, Atmosphere, Aesop Rock, The Counting Crows, Citizen Cope, Led Zeppelin, Lupe Fiasco...I really though kill every song I like because I play it obsessively.
Favorite Movies: Blow, Dazed and Confused, Traffic, Snatch, Il Postino, How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days, Father of the Bride Parts I & II
Favorite TV Shows: Friends, whatever's on Bravo, Chapelle's Show, Semi-Homemade Cooking with Sandra Lee, House Hunters, Paula Deen, Rob & Big, Jon & Kate Plus 8
Favorite Books: I'm a huge nerd and actually love reading. I really like reading books by Tom Robbins and Chuck Klosterman for pleasure, but any well written novel is well worth my time. Suggestions: Wide Sargasso Sea, poetry by Rafael Campo, Pablo Neruda, Love in the Time of Cholera..
Love About C-U: Staying out late Friday, then not feeling guilty about sleeping until noon on Saturday and then watching tv all day until I go out again. CRCE, it being warmer than Chicago, having Potbelly's in walking distance, cheap drinks at Green St bars
Hate About C-U: Bad drivers, bad shopping (Market Place does not cut it), no Lake Michigan, UIUC parking fees/parking enforcement in general.
