About me:
Unless I already know you/met you, please message me first before adding me, or I probably won't respond, thanks! ^_^;; Don't mean to be a git, but I do want my friends list to be actual friends (well and bands, clubs etc) or it'll be a bit meaningless.

<- This is me, over there.

<-- Somewhere down the side there is some of the things I like and do! That kinda tells you a fair bit about me, although I'm sure it misses out some very important stuff. If you look at my Friends list you can figure out more about me, and what I like and some bands I like etc (there is way too many to start listing them).

I tend to wear my heart on my sleeve & I am often too honest or too open for my own good. Depending on how I am feeling I can either be ridiculously laid back or extremely passionate, or even extremely moody. My openess, love and passions can leave me horribly vunerable, but I don't really think I could live any other way.
I used to think I was shy, but I've even been called outgoing these days. Who would've thought?
I'm a a goth I suppose, but I'm not really a classic or trad goth at all.
I'm probably too open minded for my own good. I don't think many things are intrinsically wrong, but I value honesty rather a lot. But you've got to be honest with yourself first!
I tend to react with resistance against things like peer-group pressure. I don't tend to have much in the way of 'beliefs' & even vocations other than those which I conjure for myself. I believe I'm still discovering myself and what I really believe, but I don't think any one source has all the answers.

I can be horribly vain, yet I also don't give a **** what I look like some of the time. I'm a bit of a weekender goth in a way.. I'd prefer to dress up more, but it would just cause too much hassle for me!


Some quotes that I like:

An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure.

Common sense isn't common.

Live life the way that you want.

My Firing Heart is not easily put out!

Arise from your grave!... Never give up!

Ore no uta-wo kike!

Love Never Dies

If it's geeky, I've done it

I'm a slimey slimer.

Any show, film or series can always be made better with the simple addition of Giant Robots.

What's Your Kinky Turn On?

You scored as Chains/Handcuffs

Your turn on is handcuffs and chains. You like being cuffed/chained to the bed, or cuffing/chaining your partner down. You love the pure ectasy of being in complete control... or letting someone else have complete control over you. Sex isn't sex without control.

The Nerd? Geek? or Dork? Test

Pure Geek (39 % Nerd, 56% Geek, 17% Dork)
For The Record: A Nerd is someone who is passionate about learning/being smart/academia. A Geek is someone who is passionate about some particular area or subject, often an obscure or difficult one. A Dork is someone who has difficulty with common social expectations/interactions.
You scored better than half in Geek, earning you the title of: Pure Geek. It's not that you're a school junkie, like the nerd, and you don't really stand out in a crowd, like the dork, you just have some interests that aren't quite mainstream. Perhaps it's anime, perhaps it's computers, perhaps it's bottlecaps, perhaps it's all of those and more. Your interests take you to events and gatherings that are filled with people you find unusual and beyond-the-pale, but you don't quite consider yourself "of that crowd." Instead, you consider yourself to be fairly normal. Which, you are. Congratulations!


Hmmm.. this kind of annoys me. I'm no Angel! Bah. *grumbles* I'm sure I'm far too selfish for this..

You scored as Angel. Angel: Angels are the guardians of all things, from the smallest ant to the tallest tree. They give inspiration, love, hope, and positive emotion. They live among humans without being seen. They are the good in all things, and if you feel alone, don't fear. They are always watching. Often times they merely stand by, whispering into the ears of those who feel lost. They would love nothing more then to reveal themselves, but in today's society, this would bring havoc and many unneeded questions. Give thanks to all things beautiful, for you are an Angel.

Uh-humm...

My score on The Sexual HELL Test:

HELL LEVEL 1
(Raw score: 47%)



You're a fallen angel. There's some innocence there, but the sexual dark side has called you and, possibly, is already using you. But you're not evil, just naughty; dirty, but not filthy. You're certainly hellbound, and you'll most likely seek out other imps like yourself to work your wicked will. There might be a moral core inside you, but it's been overtaken by lust. AVOID: the heavenbound. Your path is downward, and you'll need a guide.


Link: The Sexual HELL Test (OkCupid Free Online Dating)


Really not sure about this one, especially since it directly contradicts a couple of my answers.. silly darn quiz. :P
And what is it with me and PINK! GAH!!! :P

You scored as Pink. Pink represents the love for youth and this describes you very well. You have never taken life seriously and do not intend to. Instead you want to see where it leads you and just want to go with the flow. You love flirting, having fun and making the most of everything.

Brewer's still kickin' ass, Price has been trying to step up since D-Will got injured earlier in the year. Boozer's still on the team but he's been being a biggity bitch. Sitting out on injury forever and openly announcing mid-season that he intends to option out of his contract with the Jazz when this season ends. I'm not happy with him at the moment. It didn't matter so much at first because Milsap was stepping up and playing better than Boozer in his own starting position, but then he got injured too! Ugh. Horrible luck.
Lex





Dec 29 2008 2:32 PM

yay!
I fully intend for it to be an epic night.

Dec 29 2008 4:10 AM

RIK!!! Congrats on your team making the playoffs! I gotta say, at the beginning of the season I would never have placed a bet on that happening.

You still have an underdog to root for in the Jazz. About every starter on the team has been benched due to injury this season. Even their big back-up Paul Milsap. It's been rough. Cheer for them. You're a friggin good luck charm.
