I am...
~an oxymoron. I am this, that, anything and everything. I'm lazy but I don't like to sit still. I love watching violence on TV but I hate war. I hate hypocrisy with a passion, but I often find myself guilty of it.
~trying to be nice to everyone, because I know I want everyone to be nice to me.
~intimidating, apparently. I promise I'm very friendly and only bite when provoked. :)
~sometimes a bad influence. I secretly want to be a badass. :D
~"environmentally conscious." I do not like to be called a hippie. I'm vegetarian, very fond of animals and I like to protest/boycott things.
~an idealist. I want things to be what I want them to be. I sometimes have a hard time accepting otherwise.
~a bad decision maker. I want to pick all the choices, in case I need one of them later.
~a little bit vain. I don't think I'm pretty, but I still look at my reflection in all the mirrors I pass. I like to talk, and I like to talk about myself. I also get jealous easily. :/
~unconventional. If I had to describe my style, it would be "eclectic" (bits and pieces of everything from Goth to Bohemian). I dropped out of school last year to get my GED and start at the community college ahead of my class, and I like it a lot. I'm not ashamed of who I am. My biggest insecurities are about my appearance. :/
~desperate to make a difference. I want to leave a Lizzy-shaped hole when I die. At the moment, I'm considering going into law enforcement. (Not that I have a great fondness for the law, but I do greatly admire what our officers do.)
~totally unsure what to write here. I could write an autobiography but I don't think that's necessary. I like making new friends. :) Hit me up.

I like...
~Blink-182. Zzzzzomg.
~Diet Coke. It's half my lifeforce. Also Bold Party Blend Chex Mix and the Veggie Delite sandwich from Subway. :D
~creativity: music, art, literature, poetry, theatre, films, writing, etc. They are all very dear to me. :) I like to think of myself as an artiste. It makes me feel cool. ;D
~spontaneity. It makes things so much more exciting. My idea of romance includes rollercoasters, not candlelit dinners.
~people. I am a people person, nothing without my friends. I get all my energy from them (and I'm generally quite energetic). I'm a natural talker, but over many years I have taught myself how to listen. I believe that people are just another species of animal, but by far the stupidest; the rest of them use natural selection and "the circle of life." We decided our opposable thumbs were for making atomic bombs.
~Attention, compliments, etc. It's the Leo in me, sorry. :x The best compliment I have ever received (imo) was when my best friend told me that the entire time she was reading Pride and Prejudice she imagined me as Elizabeth Bennet. She said that whenever she reads about strong, independent female characters she thinks of me. (!!)
~Werewolves. ;D A lot. (Vampires are comparatively extremely lame.) Which reminds me... The Twilight series? I liked it all right until I read Breaking Dawn. That book ruined them all for me; it made me see how stupid all the characters were (although I will forever love Jacob Black). I think The Host is a much better example of Stephenie Meyer's writing abilities than Twilight.

I dislike...
~doing things without a reason, if it's something I don't want to do. I almost never complete a task I don't want to do if I don't see a worthwhile reason why I should.
~ignorance. If it's genuine, I can overlook it, but I hate when people refuse to see what's there. Even if you hate it, acknowledge it so you can despise it properly!
~spiders and bugs, of all kinds. Omg. No. eek
~the way I handle my emotions sometimes. If I'm seriously upset, I have finally learned that usually there is a very brief interval of insecurity when I freak out about it to a friend before managing to put my brick wall up and decide that I'm fine. My mom says I'm a s'more: crispy graham cracker shell with gooey marshmallow on the inside. :)
~holding grudges. I rarely do, because my anger tends to flare up severely and then evaporate... But sometimes things stick with me. Especially if it affects my friends or family. I'm sorry to say that yes, I, like most people, form opinions of a person right away; however, I am always willing to let that person change my opinion of them.

Writing is my passion, but of course nobody's perfect, and I definitely work hard to get better at it. I write all the time, but rarely post stuff here because I'm lazy, so I'm mainly here just to read/review/enjoy others' work. I know everyone loves reviews, so I try to leave them when I have time and something constructive and/or positive to say.
