What can one really say about themself when they are as silent as I am? I am standing on a fine line at the moment, trying to decide which realm I should step into: psychology or music? I'm leaning towards psychology, but I'm still unsure. I am generally a pretty dark person with a very dark sense of humor. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I am a writer and a musician. I used to play the trumpet for three different bands at my high school: the famous Lightning Regiment Marching Band, the Jazz Band, and the Symphonic Band. I am currently a member of a community band. As far as the writing thing goes, only one person has read a fragment of my work. I believe it's pretty good. It's my way of keeping myself under control in bad situations (the book I'm currently writing has been under construction since late in the 9th or 10th grade, so it's been through some major mood swings). My work captures my emotions and my characters act out what I wish I could do. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I apologize if I offend anyone with my silence, but it has been my protector for nearly 6 years. For those of you who knew me before 6th grade, you should be able to see the diffenence in my personality. If you hadn't noticed, I'm not at all surprised. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "V: Beneath this mask there is more than flesh. Beneath this mask there is an idea, Mr. Creedy, and ideas are bulletproof." ~V for Vendetta ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "No one would listen. No one but her heard as the outcast hears. Shamed into solitude. Shunned by the multitude. I learned to listen. In my dark, my heart heard music. I longed to teach the world, rise up and reach the world, no one would listen. I alone could hear the music. Then at last, a voice in the gloom seemed to cry "I hear you. I hear your fears, your torment and your tears." She saw my loneliness, shared in my emptiness. No one would listen, no one but her heard as the outcast hears. No one would listen, no one but her heard as the outcast hears..." ~The Phantom of the Opera ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "Quack, damn you." ~Jamie Hyneman ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "Past the point of no return! The final threshold! The bridge is crossed, so stand and watch it burn! We've passed the point of no return." ~The Phantom of the Opera ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "You went on and on about how sweet the candy was, then told me not to put it in my mouth, and got mad at me when I did." "If by "candy" you mean ancient forbidden evil, then yes, I told you not to put it in your mouth." ~The Amazing Screw-On Head ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "Now doesn't that just torque your jaws? I love that. You know like in the movies just as the good guy is about to kill the bad guy, he cocks his gun. Now why didn't he have it cocked? Because that sound is scary. It's cool, isn't it?" ~Phone Booth ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "I'm through accepting limits cause someone says there's so! Some things I cannot change but 'til I try I'll never know." ~WICKED ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "Oh, somewhere deep inside of these bones an emptiness began to grow. There's something out there, far from my home: a longing that I'll never know" ~The Nightmare Before Christmas ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "Too long I've been afraid of losing love I guess I've lost! Well, if that's love, it comes at much too high a cost!" ~WICKED ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "The heart of a fool is in his mouth, but the mouth of the wise man is in his heart." ~Benjamin Franklin ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "As someone told me lately: "Everyone deserves the chance to fly!" And if I'm flying solo at least I'm flying free! To those who ground me, take a message back from me! Tell them how I am defying gravity! I'm flying high! Defying gravity!" ~WICKED ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "At that instant, I think all of us felt the cruelty, the injustice, of fate: that such a man should be afflicted with that face, that white, noseless, rotting visage! But was not that face also a mask? Its ugliness hid the true man, the splendid inner man, even more than the porcelain mask had. All of us were similarly trapped behind our masks." ~The Angel of the Opera (Sherlock Holmes Meets The Phantom Of The Opera) ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "If we could not laugh, the pain might destroy us." ~Sherlock Holmes ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "Poison Ivy..." "It's been a long time, Harvey. You're still looking half decent." "Half of me wants to strangle you." "And what's the other half want?" "To hit you with a truck." ~Two-Face and Poison Ivy, Batman: The Animated Series ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "Now you show me your true self, the flame of your anger. You are no wimpering, sobbing baby like your Viscount." ~Erik, the Phantom of the Opera ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "Animals trapped behind bars at the zoo need to run rampant and free! Predators live on the prey they pursue. This time the predator's me!" ~Jekyll and Hyde ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "I feel like a new toothbrush." "So rub me in a circular motion on your gums." ~Mystery Science Theatre 3000 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "The world has gone berserk and hiding in the murk, new monsters lurk! I see a sea of snakes upon the floor! I see the Reaper grinning at my door! I scream in silence: "bad is good and good is bad! Sacred is profane!" And it's wiser to be mad in a world that's gone insane!" ~Jekyll and Hyde ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "You know, a little orphan girl once told me that the sun would come out tomorrow. Her adopted father was a powerful billionaire so I suppressed the urge to laugh in her face, but now, by gum, I think she may have been on to something!" ~Reefer Madness ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "If you trust in your soul, keep your eyes on the goal, then the prize you won't fail, that's your Grail. That's your Grail." ~Spamalot ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "It's 106 miles to Chicago, we got a full tank of gas, half a pack of cigarettes, it's dark, and we're wearing sunglasses." ~The Blues Brothers ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "We'll sing to the rafters of happily afters." ~Reefer Madness ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "Tonight I'll plunder heaven blind! Steal from all the gods! Tonight I'll take from all mankind! Conquer all the odds! And I feel I'll live on forever with Satan himself by my side! And I'll show the world that tonight and forever, the name to remember's the name Edward Hyde!" ~Jekyll and Hyde ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "The heart may freeze or it can burn. The pain will ease if I can learn. There is no future. There is no past. I live this moment as my last." ~RENT ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "This is the day, see it sparkle and shine, when all I've lived for becomes mine!" ~Jekyll and Hyde ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "Someday we'll find it, the rainbow connection, the lovers, the dreamers, and me." ~The Muppet Movie ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "Just like Cain and Abel, you pulled a sneak attack. I thought that we were brothers, then you stabbed me in the back!" ~The Producers ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "Voilà! In view, a humble vaudevillian veteran, cast vicariously as both victim and villain by the vicissitudes of Fate. This visage, no mere veneer of vanity, is a vestige of the vox populi, now vacant, vanished. However, this valorous visitation of a by-gone vexation, stands vivified and has vowed to vanquish these venal and virulent vermin van-guarding vice and vouchsafing the violently vicious and voracious violation of volition. The only verdict is vengeance; a vendetta, held as a votive, not in vain, for the value and veracity of such shall one day vindicate the vigilant and the virtuous. Verily, this vichyssoise of verbiage veers most verbose, so let me simply add that it's my very good honor to meet you and you may call me V." ~V for Vendetta ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "Masquerade. Paper faces on parade. Masquerade. Hide your face so the world will never find you..." ~The Phantom of the Opera ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "Let all Oz be agreed I'm wicked through and through since I could not succeed Fiyero saving you. I promise no good deed will I attempt to do again, never again!" ~WICKED ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "Wandering child, so lost, so helpless, yearning for my guidence." "Angel or father, friend or phantom, who is there staring?" "Have you forgotten your angel?" "Angel, oh speak, what endless longings echo in this whisper?" "Too long you have wandered in winter, far from my fathering gaze." "Wildly my mind beats against you, yet the soul obeys!" "Angel of Music, you denied me! Turning from true beauty! Angel of Music, do not shun me! Come to your strange angel!" ~The Phantom of the Opera ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "There's only us. There's only this. Forget regret, or life is yours to miss. No other road. No other way. No day but today." ~RENT ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "May I take your hat, your coat...and your swastikas?" ~The Producers ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "Down once more to the dungons of my black despair! Down we plunge towards the prison of my mind! Down that path into darkness deep as HELL!!!!" ~The Phantom of the Opera ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "Every song a hit and every hit goes onto your batting average." ~Colin Mochrie ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "Yes, Love, Love changes everyone. Live or perish in its flame. Love will never, never let you be the same." ~Aspects of Love ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "Do you really think that I would ever let you go? Do you think I'd ever set you free? If you do, I'm sad to say, it simply isn't so. You will never get away from me." ~Jekyll and Hyde ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "You know, for as long as I can remember, I've had memories." ~Colin Mochrie ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "Always look on the bright side of life!" ~Spamalot ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "All that you are is the end of a nightmare! All that you are is a dying scream! After tonight I shall end this demon dream!" "This is not a dream, my friend, and it will never end. This one is the nightmare that goes on! Hyde is here to stay, no matter what you may pretend! And he'll flourish long after you're gone!" ~Jekyll and Hyde ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "Let's pillage!!!" ~Adam Savage ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "Out there among the millers and the weavers and their wives, through the roofs and gables, I can see them. Everyday they shout and scold and go about their lives, heedless of the gift is to be them. If I was in their skin, I'd treasure every instant!" ~The Hunchback of Notre Dame ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "I'll live inside you forever with Satan himself by my side! And I know that now and forever they'll never be able to seperate Jekyll from Hyde!" ~Jekyll and Hyde ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "He filled up my empty life, filled it to the brim. There could never ever be another one like him." ~The Producers ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "Don't condemn what you don't comprehend." ~Jekyll and Hyde ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "And nobody in all of Oz, no wizard that there is or was, is ever gonna bring me down!" ~WICKED ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "You will curse the day you did not do all that the Phantom asked of you!" ~The Phantom of the Opera ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "I pray I may find my way." ~Jekyll and Hyde ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "When Dorothy and Toto went over the rainbow to blow off Auntie Em!" ~RENT ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "Lost in the darkness, silence surrounds you. Once there was morning, now endless night." ~Jekyll and Hyde ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "Midnight, not a sound from the pavement. Has the moon lost her memory? She is smiling alone." ~CATS ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "Go to sleep, my tormented love." ~Jekyll and Hyde ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "Every song a hit and every hit a smack." ~Colin Mochrie ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "There's something strange, there's something wrong. I see a change, it's like when love dies. I, who have known you for so long, I see the pain in your eyes." ~Jekyll and Hyde ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "I reject your reality and substitute my own." ~Adam Savage ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "Out there, strolling by the sand, taste the morning out there like ordinary men, who freely walk about there! Just one day, and then I swear I'll be content with my share! Won't resent, won't dispair, old and bent, I won't care, I'll have spent one day out there!" ~The Hunchback of Notre Dame ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "Haha, you were right, Bobby. Ventriloquism is fun." ~Hank Hill ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "I need to know the nature of the demons that possess man's soul. I need to know why man's content to let them make him less than whole. But why does he revel in murder and madness? What is it makes him be less than he should? Why is he doomed not to reach his potential? His soul is black when he turns his back upon good." ~Jekyll and Hyde ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "I've learned to sleep with my eyes open...God, am I tired." ~Dale Gribble ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "It's a sin with no name, like a tiger to tame, and my senses proclaim it's a dangerous game." ~Jekyll and Hyde ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "I was so happy when you smiled. Your smile breaks through the clouds of grey. Far from the sunny days that lie in sleep. Waiting with patience for the spring when the flowers will bloom renewed again, knowing there's more beyond the pain of today. Although the scars of yesterday remain, you can go on living as much as your heart believes. You can't be born again, all though you can change. Let's stay together always." ~Fruits Basket ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "I'm not bad, Mr. Valient, I'm just drawn that way." ~Who Framed Roger Rabbit ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "Sometimes I see past the horizon, sure of my way, where I am going. But where's the prize I have my eyes on? Where? There is just no knowing. And when dispair tears me in two, who can I turn to but you? You know who I am. Take me as I am." ~Jekyll and Hyde ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "Creeping like a communist, it's knocking at our doors, turning all our children into holligans and whores. Voraciously devouring the way things are today. Savagely deflowering the good ol' U.S.A. It's Reefer Madness, Reefer Madness. Oh so mad!" ~Reefer Madness ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "It's crazy, I'm thinking just knowing that the world is round. I'm here, I'm down sitting on the ground. Am I right-side up or upside down and is this real or am I dreaming?" ~Dave Matthews Band ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "So many times out there, I've watched a happy pair of lovers walking in the night. They had a kind of glow around them, it almost looked like Heaven's light." ~The Hunchback of Notre Dame ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "A toast to the night, a toast to romance, to those unafraid of taking a chance." ~Jekyll and Hyde ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I edited my profile with Thomas' Myspace Editor V4.1click here
