About me:
That's me up there in that picture *points*. There really isn't much to say. If you are on this page, you probably know me. If not, then why are you looking at my shit, you creepy stalker! That's right, I watch Fox news! (Not Really) I have also recently discovered that three of my favorite movies have the song Don't Panic by Coldplay in the soundtrack. I talk in my sleep and I can get quite belligerent. It's frightening really. Ever since I was a little kid, when I would get sick, my dad would make me gargle Crown Royal (and it works). Also, when I was a little kid, I used to tuck towels into my "big girl" undies and run around the house half naked pretending to be a cat. Somedays I come home and just really wanna beat up my cats just because I know I can take 'em. Upon review, I've discovered that I share a disturbingly great amount of similarities with "The Dude."

Your Heritage:Irish, Welsh, German, etc...
The Shoes You Wore Today:Jesus sandals! They're still going strong!
Your Weakness:Books, Sugar
Your Fears:I used to be afraid of broken glass. I thought it would find its way int omy blood stream and slice me open from the inside. I finally got over that though. Now its basically just zombies and aliens. Oh, and loneliness.
Your Perfect Pizza:MMMmmm...lots of cheese. Veggie patch pizzas are the best. With garlic!
Goal You Would Like To Achieve This Year:Hopfully I'll manage to get everything back on track and do well in school and establish a routine again.
Your Most Overused Phrase On an instant messenger:"Okay" "Lol" "Brb" "DIAF"
Thoughts First Waking Up:"Must brush teeth" which is swifuly followed by, "Cereal!"
Your Best Physical Feature:Eye color...Not the eyes, they are too narrow. Just the color.
Your Bedtime:Somewhere between 8pm and 6am depending on what my brain is doing that night.
Your Most Missed Memory:I miss playing Mario Kart in Izzy's basement with her and Dave while eating massive amounts of Tootsie Rolls and drinking "green stuff."
Pepsi or Coke:Neither! I really only drink water, tea, and milk.

Single or Group Dates:Single
Lipton Ice Tea or Nestea:Lipton
Chocolate or Vanilla:Chocolate
Cappuccino or Coffee:Neither...I'll take tea.
Do you Smoke:Nope
Do you Swear:When it's called for though I've aquired the mouth of a sailor as of late.

Do you Shower Daily:I try to.
Have you Been in Love:Think so.
Do you want to go to College:I'm there!
Do you want to get Married:If I find someone I want to marry.
Do you belive in yourself:Not really...That's a kind of lame after-school special kind of question.
Do you get Motion Sickness:Everytime I fly I want to die. Also, bus drivers in the UK were something to get used to. I honestly don't know how they get their licenses.
Do you think you are Attractive:Not in the least. My self esteem hovers between low and non-existant most of the time.
Are you a Health Freak:No...I used to be and then I realized that life is too delicious to worry about it. I don't smoke or drink really. Surly that earns me extra trans fat points right?

In the past month have you been on Drugs:Nope
In the past month have you gone on a Date:Yup
In the past month have you gone to a Mall:Umm...Kind of.
In the past month have you eaten a box of Oreos:A whole box? No, but I did have some Oreos! More disgustingly I at half a jar of Nutella....*shivers at the thought*
In the past month have you eaten Sushi:No
In the past month have you been on Stage:Nope
In the past month have you been Dumped:Umm...Nope
In the past month have you gone Skinny Dipping:Nope though I hope to jump into the Atlantic as soon as it warms up a bit!

Ever been Drunk:Ever? Yes.
Ever been called a Tease:Yea
Ever been Beaten up:Yup, Valerie Zimmermann and Jarvis Smith both kicked my ass.
Ever Shoplifted:When I was a kid I stole a pretty stone from a store and my mom found out and totally guilt tripped me and it took me like a year to get over it.
How do you want to Die:Peacefully and unawares. I hope that I don't get so old that I don't know what is going on and someone has to wipe my ass though.
What do you want to be when you Grow Up:I am pretty much grown up and I don't really know. In a perfect fantasy world, I wouldn't want to be anything. I would like to be a housewife and just take classes as I pleased and waste time knitting and reading and whatever else.
What country would you most like to Visit:At this point...I need to get my butt to Scotland. However, I would give my right pinky to go to Russia.
In a Boy/Girl..
Favourite Eye Color:Hmm...green. Though it really doesn't make a difference.
Favourite Hair Color:Dark hair! Anything but blonde
Short or Long Hair:Medium?
Height:Doesn't matter though I don't want to be taller (especially considering I'm not very tall).
Weight:Doesn't matter.
Best Clothing Style:Doesn't matter.
Number of Drugs I have taken:Millions
Number of CDs I own:Not that many. I just download things and put them on my iPod.
Number of Piercings:Have I had? Probably in the triple digits. Up until a week ago I had my lip pierced but that had to come out. Now...I'm down to only five.
Number of Tattoos:Two...One of them is not so tiny though haha.
Number of things in my Past I Regret:Too many to count. Surprisingly enough, one of them isn't my tattoo. Actually, I retract that statement. I don't really regret anything I guess because honestly, I'm happy where I am and happy with how I turned out and it probably wouldn't be this way if I hadn't done some stupid things in the past so, yea...I don't really regret anything.
