About Me

CURRENT MISSION

knowledge is power. . . and I am still learning

ABOUT ME

I am...Laid backCrazyLoyal (not dog loyal though...I don't heel)Honest (not brutally though)CreativeA dorkOutspokenCan be a nerd at times tooWith a style that's always changingthe top 3 constants in my life: animals, music, colorsSometimes I...Smile at squirrels. WHAT?! they're chunky and adorable and when I'm having a good day I find that a lot of them are outside.Strip in the wrong places or...whip my bra off and fling it at some random victim.Take big steps when my pants are slippingShare my drinks late at night with strangers at the beachGo into fits of rage and bake cookies, make guacamole or cook some random dish.Sing songs randomly...sometimes at the wrong times, but always in tune.Sing songs I don't know the language to....and songs other people don't think I know the language to -.- but I doAm confused by the word "Approval". WHAT THE HELL DOES IT MEAN TO "ASK" FOR IT?!I've been known to...Hyperventilate after getting too many texts from one boy at one time.Start sobbing over Coffee Toffee mishaps at Wendy'sSay random things that make sense later on well after they were saidGet bored easily and create my own fun at timesMake anything funny even the sickest films you can imagineSay I'm drunk when I'm not and say I'm not when I'm drunk.And I've been known to have the best stories to tell and be the best person to be near when events for those stories happen.It takes a lot to upset me and I get along with pretty much anyone and everyone. I'm easily distracted and easily entertained. Sometimes I act like a kid (and I'll quote you out of any cartoon ever made). I love making people laugh, but I'm not some stand up comedian. I'm just a goofy person and sometimes, just like a kid, i say the darndest things. I travel a lot so don't be confused when I tell you I live in one place then write you later talking about I'm somewhere else...i know, it confuses me to.I love to read, sing, watch movies and write. I dance too, but never seriously anymore and you'll be EXTREMELY lucky if you catch me busting any moves XD. I listen to EVERYTHING and will sing it all. I don't draw much nowadays because I don't have the time. I have no heroes, just friends. ^_~ And if one of them tells you my driving is amazing...they're either lying, or, they've finally come over to the dark side where the water cost more than the cookies.The songs I sing and the colors I paint my nails are ways I express how I'm feeling at EVERY given time. . . so be on the lookout XDFinally, sometimes I can be extremely indecisive. I already don't like this 'About Me' post, sooooooooo I'll change it later. The only thing that has held true since I can remember is that I have NEVER been a fan of pears. I don't like their texture.My memory is trash and if I repeated anything I just can't seem to care enough to double check.

PHILOSOPHY

J'écris donc je suis. I don't know how to fill this box out. There is so much to me. Why should I be forced to define it. If you're curious you'll message me or come visit I'm sure.

Music, Movies, and Books

This is impossible to fill for me, but I'll try to explain why. I listen to everything except for screamo. It's the only music I can't seem to get into. I think that's because I don't what they're saying and the beat isn't that great either. I love reading and I'm always open for suggestions on great books, though sometimes I get bored with biographies and autobiographies, but usually I'm easily pleased by a decent read. I love fantasy, mystery and horror. I like entering worlds that I don't have to put up with in real life because it's an escape. As for films I like all kinds, I love horror, fantasy and mystery as well as action, anime, animated, some westerns, musicals, noir and tons of other genres I just can't remember. I love films that make me think. . . films that come full circle or contain bits that tie together and you only notice them if you pay close attention or watch it a second time. I love movies with catchy phrases that seem silly but actually mean something deeper. I love Neil Gaiman as an author and I love the film MirrorMask. Those are the only names I'll be giving you for free. :P
