{*Carleen ~DSC*} thinks myspace's new layout is stupidly organized.
Most of the facts will remain the same.
*I’m a semi-spoiled only child who lived a semi-sheltered life in a tiny rural community in southern Indiana. I know I have much to learn about the world, and I don’t care.
*J'adore la pluie. There’s something about standing in a rainshower that can be the most freeing experience in the world.
*Left-handed genius…or something like it. ^.^
*King Arthur and vampires=love.
*darkmerrick=me, pretty much everywhere online. It's the name I've had for quite some time in quite a lot of places.
*Mashed potatoes are the best food on earth.
*Bad grammar is the scourge of the Earth. Although I will admit I’ve been known to abbreviate words and leave out letters and not capitalize. It’s a bad habit picked up by texting a lot, but it doesn’t mean I don’t cringe when someone spells “their” instead of “there” or “your” instead of “you’re.” There’s a reason we go to school.
*I love the Beatles and Eleanor Rigby Hey Jude’s my favorite. Actually, there’s not really a Beatles song I really, really dislike. I have different songs for different moods, in fact.
*I always wear flip flops unless its snowing. Although here in Muncie, it gets cold, so I wear boots a lot now too.
*I still can't stand onions and mushrooms.
*Peace signs, rubber duckies, and rainbows are my fav's, and I don’t like butterflies, hearts, and I’m not a big fan of stars.
*Try Everything at least once. And if you’re not sure, try it again. That’s my life motto. It’s gotten me into some trouble. O.o
*As much as I don't really like Vincennes, I miss it now that I'm in Muncie. It’s really not that bad of a town, and Muncie’s not really that big of an improvement. It’s just a little bigger. I realize that I'm more...comfortable in Vinny than anywhere else, and I that will probably never change. But sometimes, Change is needed.
*Life can't be bad forever, I know that now.
I love like there's no tomorrow,
I cry like there's nothing left to live for,
I laugh like I'm the happiest person in the world.
Who I'd like to meet: Amy Lee, Cleopatra, Natalie Wood, JFK, Judy Garland, Kat Von D, Siddhartha Guatama, Hayden Panetierre, Kristen Bell, Angelina Jolie, King Arthur and his court.
Small world! My Dad lives in Vallejo, which isn't far from San Fran! (1-1.5 hrs). Plus, I have fam in the Bay Area, so we will probably be traveling that way.
-sighh- Lucky, all my computer's hate me. My laptop(which is less than a year old) decided to screw up on me again! I think I'm done with Windows and am thinking about switching to Mac. :( I'm going to have to send it out again for repairs!
Haha, I was up practically all night when I lived in the dorms...mine was one of the rooms people knew was open and the light was on to come in and hang out :P So you'd be surprised what I heard ;)
When I lived with Chris and Lee I watched a lot of Gilmore Girls, let me tell ya. :P
LOL yes I was wearing leather pants...actually pleather cuz I dont wear leather but yeah lol. That picture was taken back in the day when I went everywhere dressed like Faith, lmfao.
Pfft. Let them be offended-I'm mad. I don't get to enjoy Japan because some jackass military (mostly marines) decided to make some incredibly stupid decisions. I swear they turn in their brains for guns O.O
