"[[The Daria Diaries]]" shows a guideline for how the class should behave on a field trip to the [[County Museum of Modern Art]], showing she's well aware of what her class is like - her guidelines include to "at least look" like they're paying attention, for [[Kevin Thompson]] not to shoplift, that no one is to snicker at the nudes or look for dinosaurs ("that's another museum"), and that if they're puzzled by art they can cover this up by saying "how postmodern!". She also advises "DO jump up and down on the front steps like Rocky. You're only young once."

▲The book "[[The Daria Database]]" shows some of her art: a macrame plant holder. She plans to start her own mail-order business selling them, at some vague point in the future when she's 'got it together'.
Defoe has her personal history fleshed out in "Diaries" and "Database". From the books it is revealed that she resented to have to choose between "Arts" and "Crafts" and that she makes wind chimes in her spare time (which [[Anthony DeMartino]] can't stand hearing and throws in the bin). It is also revealed that she owns a studio apartment that's been occupied by freeloading ex-college suitemates, who she doesn't have the heart to throw out (a theme that has been explored in some fanfiction stories); as a result, she keeps a sleeping bag in the school staff room so she can stay there and washes with "homemade soap at truck-stop showers".
