Had the weirdest day yesterday... in short... I got hit on and stalked by a meantally challenged person, was asked if I had a lighter by some girl in the movie theater parking lot, got hit on by a girl I thought was a boy at first, ran in the rain and got drenched but changed in the movies bathroom (I bought clothes at the mall before then) and then saw Hancock, which was an awesomly funny movie XD And I watched Pulp Fiction which is like the weirdest movie I've seen thus far. Phew. I cant believe I lived through yesterday. Actually, yeah, I can. ^_^

I have a challenge for you guys!

Jun 17, 2008
Okay, so I just discovered last night that my other computer had recovered from a major crash and ALL of my stuff was lost. Now, I saved it on another site, but that site was recently reformatted and it runs very slowly, so it'll take a while to get my stuff back. *cries* God, I really hate computers somtimes. This is what I get for never using my thumdrive.

I do not know why I smile much more often than you remember, I suppose I'm growing up and we're growing apart...

Sometimes I don't have a clear picture of who's in my dreams, unless I want to remember. This in mind, I can never remember what form I take in my dreams. Sometimes I'm with animated people, but I don't feel animated myself. I do remember being Penny Proud once, though I'm pretty much the last person you'd consider to be ethnic.

I think I developed some kind of interest in dreams because of my mom. She'd tell me about how relatives who'd recently passed away would come in her dreams to tell her they're all right, sometimes even her cats would, according to her. Once, one of our cats (whom I hated enough to throw across the room, not one of my better judgements, three times. Hey, it was self defense) supposedly came to her in a dream, purring. After the thing bit me so badly that it scarred and made dad mad enough to dump her on the side of the road (actually, his friend did it for him. Dad was too busy saying he wished he could find his sledge hammer). Mom said that Fleur, the cat, was purring in the dream, therefore dead and happy. I was just glad it was dead. Cruel maybe, but it tried to kill two other cats due to pissed off ex girlfriend syndrome. I didn't even know that cats could get jealous if their 'boyfriend' starts sniffing other cats' butts.

Mom also told me about a dream in which I was getting married to Marlyn Manson and she was happy about it in the dream. She'd never be okay with it in real life, obviously.

Mom gave me other talents besides being able to recall dream after dream, unlike a good number of people. She gave me the artists' touch and eyes. She gave me the enthusiasim for reading and writing, language in general. I'm currently learning Japanese by the way. Mom also gave me the talent of being able to run into door knobs and tripping on random objects, sometimes even nothing. But that's only when I'm in a loopy mood. And then, I can also be pretty balanced; I've been told I'd be a natural for Karate by a karate instructor. I took it once a the Y and liked it a lot, but havent been able to get more training.

As for my personality, I get it from my dad. Cynical, blunt, sometimes a little mean. What can I say, I'm a b_tch. Remember that song?

My likes and dislikes....I love cranberry juice and frozen mango juice! I prefer juice over pop any day. I love animals, but hate them in my house at a certain point. I don't like the idea of always having to take care of them. I have 4 cats now and can't wait to be free of all of them. They're cute, but I hate litterbox cleaning. If I get a cat when I have my own house, I'm tiolet training it! I love, love, love, art. It's an easy way of expressing yourself besides writing, therefore one of vices. People drink, smoke, whatever, I draw and write, it's just my way. I've never been in love, so don't expect any gushy poems about how I love someone so much, not happening. I can't know how it feels, so I can't write about it from my personal experience. I'm a smart ass, according to my parents (they're right anyway) but I am also one of the brightest people in my class, maybe even school. I'm a kid that's still looking to find her place in the world. I want to be a computer animation and graphics artist and a writer. This, I'm pretty much set on. My writing will be about... all I've ever thought, all I've ever imagined, all I've ever experienced, all I ever will experience, everywhere I've been, everywhere I'm going, everywhere I want to go, everything I've ever heard and ever will, every opinion I've ever had and every opinion I will ever have, it will be simply ME.

I collect: Pennies (ask if you want to know why, I don't want to type it out)

I LOVE music and always always always have my iPod. I listen to anything and everything: Rock, R&B, Rap, Pop, Brit Pop, 90's, 60's.

My top ten music artists are:

1. Panic at the Disco (Some of the most original stuff I've ever heard in my opinion. They're not afraid to try new styles of music and I love them for it)

2. Fall Out Boy (Don't judge, I just do. Patrick's voice is so soulful, I love that band)

3. The Strokes. (4 albums on my iPod by them)

4. The Hush Sound (Awesome piano and interesting lyrics that tell a story)

5. Sara Barrielles (Again, awesome piano and lyrics)

6. Hot Hot Heat (Clever lines and upbeat rythm, how can it disappoint?)

7. Amy Winehouse (Again, there's a story there and her voice is just so unique)

8. The Killers (Just plain awesome. Especially Sam's Town, that album had a lot of stories to tell)

9. Paramore (Something just makes me want to listen, so don't judge)

10. Flyleaf (Flyleaf: a note to readers before a story that is written by an author. This is a great band and her voice is just... great)

I play soccer and have ran cross country before.

My top ten books are...

1. Dun dun dun! Gone with the Wind. (Oh, Margeret Mitchell, I LOVED that ending! Haha)

2. So Hard... Harry Potter series! (JKR, your books are so good, but you are evil for killing Fred and others! Especially Fred! How could you do that to George?!)

3. Ink Heart series (Its a book about a book inside a book with people in that book and people who are after that book!)

4. Memoirs of a Geisha (So well written, I can't say anything else!)

5. Twilight Series (Bella is so lucky *sniffle*)

6. Cathy's book series (You just have to keep reading!)

7. Be More Chill (Ned Vizzini is hilerious!)

8. It's kinda a funny story (It's a REALLY funny story. Ned Vizzini rules~)

9. Girls For Breakfast (David Yoo YOU are cynically funny. What's better than a self-loathing Korean who hates all things Asian and lives in a White Bread town?)

10. The Perks of Being a Wallflower (Good read! Plain and simple)

11. (Ok, I had to list one more) Hard Love (read it and weep)

12. (Ok, maybe two more) Kira-Kira (It's such a moving story! It's the only book that's ever made me flat out cry T^T)

13. (Haha, thought I was done, didnt you?!) The Color Purple (how can I explain it... so deep)

14. Teen Angst... nah (Again, Vizzini RULES! XD)

15. DEATHNOTE (Pretty much the best manga EVER)

I'm dancing in the rain~

Just singing in the rain~

Mother will call me home soon~

But I don't care~

Because I'm dancing in the rain~
