Rachel

About me:

My name really doesn't matter but I'll let you in on it anyways as long as you keep it a secret. I kid. It's Rachel Grace Aimee Weaver. I graced this not so green earth on November 13th, 1990. That would make me eighteen years of age. That also would make me a Scorpio, and no I'm not a believer in astrology. I'm not perfect. You know it, I know it, so now we can move on.

I feel no need to elaborate on or advertise my drinking or smoking habits or my sexuality. I hate when people write "I drink and smoke get over it" or "I'm don't drink,smoke, or drugs" on their myspace. Seriously, if you think that you're bad ass because you smoke and drink or you think you're bad ass because you're straightedge, please come back to reality. Do you really need to label yourself as being one way or the other? I think not.

My beliefs don't make me better than anyone else. But I still feel strongly about them. I've been a vegetarian for four years and counting. I'm vegetarian solely for animals. I really don't give a crap about being healthy. Nor do I care if you eat meat in front of me. Seriously, it doesn't gross me out so don't waste your time.

I'm agnostic, but sometimes I wish I was able to believe in things mindlessly as opposed to analyzing everything like I do. Intelligence is overrated, so be glad if you're a moron. I've found that the although knowledge is power, it brings with it a burden of depression and anger at knowing the way things are knowing you can't change them. Ever.

I want to learn as much as I can before I die. Every day of my life I want to know something new. If I could read constantly, I probably would. I hate almost all modern writing however. If you like Plath, Sexton, Carroll, or pretty much any author or poet who can actually write, we'll pretty much be best friends. I love to write also. I mainly write prose and poetry.

I don't care who Paris Hilton is dating or why Lindsay Lohan is being arrested. So let's not talk about it unless it's to make fun of people who care more about celebrities lives than their own.

I am not an altruist. I won't even pretend to be. I'm not sorry for the fact that I don't care about you. Everything we do in life is selfish and the sooner you realize that, the better. I'm not the kind of person who will sit and listen to your sob story. I could care less about your problems. I'm in this world to fight for what I care about. I do not sit behind an ipod or cell phone and hide from the worlds problems. I want to change things, or contribute to the change.

While we're on the subject of not caring, I might as well mention here and now that I am probably one of the most anti-social people you will ever meet. I judge on first impressions. I will read you from the git-go and if I don't like what I read from the way you act the first time we meet, chances are I will never like you. You can't learn to like people, you can only learn to tolerate them.

My real passion in life is for animals. Everything about them fascinates me and I believe they are the key into figuring out ourselves. I share my house with four cats(Mooshu, Wicket, Vicky, and Mary), one ferret(Rikki Tikki Tavi), two rats(Snoopy and Linus), seven fish(Big Lebowski, Mango Tango, Ralph, Harpo, Groucho, and Chico), , and one crested gecko(Habeus). I interned at The Farm Sanctuary for awhile. I'm also currently working on getting my wildlife rehabilitation license. Ultimately, I'd like to go into animal behavior but that won't be for awhile.

I'm too obsessed with Alice in Wonderland. I like a lot of "cult" television shows, books, and movies. And no, I really don't do it to be cool.

Time is valuable to me. So don't waste mine and I won't waste yours. I only speak when I have something worth saying. Think about it.

I don't trust anyone completely, and you won't be an exception to this.
