About Me


I tromped through the pumpkin patch!
My name is Erika. I am only 18 years old but I don't feel really any age in specific. As strange as parts of this page might come off, I am the silliest, most ridiculous girl ever. My laugh can be heard from a mile away and I am always joking around. I'm very shy when I meet new people though so it's a 50/50 chance you meet that side the first time. I am very petite, white hair, blue eyes, 100 pounds, pale. I have a lot of muscles and strength for someone of my size. I am Irish, Scottish and English and everyone in my family is blonde. My mind is about 60 years into the future but I don't think I belong in any time period.
Media is my best friend, and worst enemy.
I want to see the world and I love to travel a lot. I am currently studying language in Kamata, Tokyo. I am on my second year of learning Japanese language so コメントを残してください. I have a blackbelt in taekwondo, I also have been figure skating for 10 years, riding horses for 4, and have a lot of random talents.

I enjoy exploring abandoned buildings, creating art in every form, and going on adventures. I'm quite the adrenaline junkie and I make the most of everything I have. I'm very fun loving and I am not afraid to do what most wouldn't dare. I seek out more ways for rushes and escape on a daily basis.
All of my photoshoots are directed by myself. I coordinate the outfits (all of the clothing is mine), am the artist for the hair and makeup unless otherwise specified, and any editing involved. For most of my films, I am the writer, director, editor, and a lot of the time actor. I took them all off youttube though because that site is filled with idiots.
I consider myself to be living a successful life and I would like to think I have everything I could ever want.
I am not about female empowerment. I am about self-empowerment. If there is one trait I admire in a person, it is bravery. Wisdom coming in second.
I make all types of films. Although they are not very impressive at this point (horrible, actually). I know when I am at the point where I want to be, I will produce amazing things. I dress up everyday, expressing myself through clothing is a passion of mine. I may seem closed off but I really do like meeting new people. Unless you are a close friend, I probably won't go within 5 feet of you. I have a weird thing about touching and personal space. I have too many friends on here to keep up with but if you leave me comments I will respond.

Beliefs I live my life by
I'm a spontaneous risk-taker who loves life but hates time. I live my life as if it would end at any given moment. It's that realization that is my drug, my strength, and my passion to try everything once and with you twice. Some people find reasons to live, some people find reasons to die. Life is short, people on average sleep for 17 years. The best moments of your life are the ones you usually didn't plan for. Throw away your reasons. Funerals last on average an hour 1/2, gravestones are heavy, the sun is burning out, land is eroding and people kill to make peace. Glance for each emotion, throw away your watch and never give 12-roses. Preservation lacks mobilization. Love is worth death. Your life is a book that you shouldn't stop to proofread, let others read it when you die and don't forget every story needs a climax.
Remember, security is in the mind, not objects. If you can't pack everything you need in 2 hours, you have a problem with possessions. If you think she/he is waiting for you, you are already missing your chance. Sex should be reinvented each night for the sake of art, don't be an artistic reproduction. Spontaneous action deconstructs inhibitors set forth by your fears. Weekends are for the overworked. Walk in a storm, experience religion, when in doubt, do the opposite of reason. Find love, find pain, find yourself.
