Greetings to you all!
About Me
Answers to: Susie / Susan (reluctantly) / Sooz / Child / Girl / Auaie
Age: 16
Height: 5'4
Weight: Yeah... not telling you. It's between 8 stone and 10 stone
Hair: Brown with some bright red highlights that seem to have gone vaguely orange. It refuses to go fully into a ponytail and instead hangs rather undashingly in my face.
Eyes: Two
Nationality: Scottish. But I have English blood and an obsession with the Irish accent and Italian football players.
Other Stuff
I'm in my fifth year of secondary school, which is my second last (I could drop out this Christmas, but I don't want to). I'm doing my Highers this year, which are basically the most important exams of my life, so I'm a bitty scared.
I love music, and I play piano, clarinet, percussion, sax (sort of), guitar (sort of) and I sing. I listen to almost any music apart from dance.
I have an account on Fanfiction.net as well (http://www.fanfiction.net/u/642029/ ) where I have several lovely fics if you feel like reading them.
The Seven Wonders Of MY World...
1. Bohemians. I like to think of myself as one, but I'm more of a borderline hippy.
2. Reading and writing, principally on Fanfiction and Fictionpress, but sometimes just in notebooks that I keep all over my room.
3. Bright colours. What can I say? I wear a bright orange trench coat, green jeans, two colours of eyeshadow, a selection of rainbow tshirts, spotty vans, many colourful hats, and orange converse (not together though. I like to think I know how to co-ordinate)
4. Scotland. It's my home country, and everyone's really smart and friendly and cool! And I DON'T own a kilt and 'och aye the noo' means 'oh yes now'. I don't know why people think we say that all the time. Come visit us.
5. Stand-Up Comedians - Eddie Izzard, Bill Bailey, Ed Byrne, Russel Howard, Jimmy Carr, Dara O'Brien... how they make me lol.
6. Music. Especially happy songs. Put On A Happy Face, Rhythm Of Life, Dreaming Of You, Face The Music, Take Me Or Leave Me, La Vie Boheme... you get the picture.
7. Talking crap - I can't help it. I tak crap all the time, and I tend to analyse metaphors until some passer-by finally snaps and punches me.
...And Seven Things That Suck
1. Neds. Likely you haven't heard of them, unless you're Scottish, but I'll bet you know some. In England they're called chavs. They're the ones (usually young and male) who are kind of thick and go about drinking and smoking and smashing things up. Google them.
2. Mary Sues. Grr. Being fiction reader/writers, you'll probably have encountered many of these. They're original female characters that are annoyingly perfect. Pretty, smart, tough, cool... you get the picture. They suck. Don't create these monstrosities! You have been warned!
3. High School Fecking Musical. And there's going to be a third one! And what's worse than being stuck in the world during the peak of HSM? Having to look after 25 eight year olds during the peak of HSM (I look after Brownies)!!! I swear if I hear that doo-doo-doo-doo-doo-doo-doo-doo-doo-doo-doo-doo-woah-oh-oh-oh song one more time I WILL disembowell someone with a teaspoon!
4. Kippers. Boney, stinky, fishy. Need I say more?
5. Exams. I have five to sit this year (English, biology, history, modern studies and music) and I need to pass them. I got a C in maths last year. I hate maths. In fact...
6. Maths. Who cares about calculus / trigonometry etc? It's pointless, unless you're a mathematician or an engineer (apologies to my sister who's taking all 3 sciences and wants to be a physician or an engineer. Rather you than me, my friend).
7. Onions. Eeeew! Slimy!
The Top Ten Greatest Songs Ever (For this month...)
1. Umbrella - Biffy Clyro
2. Rockstar - Nickleback
3. La Vie Boheme - Rent
4. Don't Stop Me Now - Queen
5. Your Horoscope For Today - Weird Al Yankovich
6. James Bond - Scouting For Girls
7. Four Little Diamonds - Electric Light Orchestra
8. The Boy With The Arab Strap - Belle and Sebastian
9. Rock and Roll - Led Zeppelin
10. Blitzkrieg Bop - The Ramones

And That's It
If yu've got this far, you clearly have a very long attention span. Or just no life. Either way, congratulations.
Please review my stories and poems. Who knows? I may review yours. If I like them.
