"I'd like to think the best of me Is still hiding up my sleeve."
Me
Hey! My name's Danielle, but everyone calls me Dani, or a variety of other nicknames...:P I'm 17 and a Senior at PAHS,finally! One could say that I'm like your typical teenage girl, while others may beg to differ. Growing up an only child, I've been spoiled my entire life. Although I'm extremely lucky and very fortunate to experience such circumstances, at the same time, I have a curious and adventurous mind. I love to read, listen to music, and relax most of the time. I admit to being a bit moody at times, but it's who I am in this moment. Growing up has had it's ups and downs, and while I know what I want, I'm still struggling to get there. It's tough at times, but I'm trying. I have faith in the idea that everything always works out in the end, and I know that I'll find my place. Until then, I'm just discovering everything around me and living it up with the people that I love and care about most. Partial to new ideas and getting to know unfamiliar faces, I try not to let others' opinions phase me. I have a strange sense of humor and I definitely have outgoing and "weird" tendencies, but I try to respect everyone and everything, hopefully with mutual feelings in return. Finally, I know that I may not be perfect...but then again, who is? :P

⇒ I'm often very loud & obnoxious.
⇒ I'm a part-time student at MCCC and plan to attend full time in the fall of 2008, eventually transferring to a 4 year school.
⇒ Writing is my forte. I contribute to the school newspaper monthly and hope to possibly major in communications (journalism).
⇒ I work at FYE - It's the most fun I've ever had working :)
⇒ I aboslutely love animals (especially cats).
⇒ Music is something that I've loved my entire life. I listen to various genres and love to find a decent new artist. Without music life wouldn't be fair in any sense.
⇒ I'm somewhat indecisive considering that I can't cease to stop changing my profile song or picture at least 3 times a week.
⇒ I can be extremely sarcastic and jerk-esque or extremely sweet. Chances are, you'll identify me with one side moreso than the other. Don't be intimidated. If I tease you, it's probably because I like you :)
⇒ I'm a huge goof & dork at heart.
⇒ My family is amazing. We're Italian, crazy, and very tight-knit.
⇒ I believe that everything happens for a reason and that in the end, all will come full-circle. Whether that outcome is expected, well, that's what makes life interesting.
⇒ I'm super sensitive but I try not to allow myself to get taken advantage of. In other words, I don't trust a ton of people.
⇒ If I didn't have my friends, I'd probably go insane. They're the people that have taught me the most over the years and continue to support me even at my worst. I'd do anything for them ♥
⇒ I'm very open-minded and a good listener. Tell me something crazy about yourself and it's likely that I won't persecute you in any way, shape, or form. Seriously, I've heard a lot in this short life...
⇒ If I want something, you can be sure that I'm not afraid to get it.
⇒ Make me laugh and I'm yours!
⇒ I have a temper. Rarely do I show it and rarely do I have reason to. Just don't hurt me or piss me off.
⇒ I hang out with almost anyone and everyone. Regardless of how you look or how you're labeled, I think it's important to get to know a variety of people.
⇒ Uptight and extremely conservative, close-minded people make me uncomfortable. Nonetheless, respect is still maintained.
⇒ A lot of people underestimate me and think that they have some sort of sense of who I am. You'll likely see a very public part of me, but I'm also very private. There are qualities that you won't initially see....and quite possibly won't ever (unless you're cool enough).
⇒ My lovely and wonderful Facebook friends and classmates have labeled me "more outgoing," "better listener," "more loyal," "more likely to skip class," "more adventurous," "more enviable," "more popular," "more loyal," "crazier, "funnier," "better friend," "more entertaining," "happier person," "more likely to do a favor," "more creative," "nicer," and "smarter." Hopefully that gives you an even better idea of what I'm like!
⇒ I don't date often. I'm very picky about who I give my all to and I plan to keep it that way. I won't settle for anything less than what I deserve. I'm just waiting for that certain special (not so jerky) person to come around :)
⇒ I'm not often easily intimidated, but if so, my nervousness and embarrassment quite often shows (i.e. I can't string full senstences togeter...) :P
⇒ I'm extremely spoiled, but I still have self-discipline.
⇒ I'm "book smart" and far from "street smart." I have my blonde moments.
⇒ I have three best friends - Heather Bastian, Julie Klinger, and Liz Granacher. These girls know me better than I know myself and continually bring tons of fun to the table ♥
⇒ Quietness is awkward. Please don't hesitate to talk around me. Tell me your deepest desires!
⇒ I love classic literature, (auto)biographies, and fact-based fiction. I almost always have my nose stuck in a book :)
⇒ I can't stand when people argue or fight. It's very distressing to me.
⇒ Little known fact: I was originally going to be named Scarlet, after Jimmy Page's daughter. I was also born in Georgia.
⇒ I drive the coolest car this side of Phoenixville, dubbed the "Assfire". It's small, red, and extremely tacky in the coolest of ways ;)
⇒ I have a slight obsession with the 80's. I'm convinced that I was born in the wrong era, and was instead meant to be a teenager growing up in the 80's...
⇒ I can either be extremely independent or exceptionally dependent as a result of whatever mood I'm in.
⇒ I appreciate the viewing of noteworthy horror movies. Unfortunately it's often hard to find a fellow willing participant :(
⇒ I have a few personal goals for my future, including the publication of a book.
⇒ My bad habits include: oversleeping, cursing, and being overly compassionate.
⇒ I have a passion for learning. I'm a very curious person who often likes to ask questions. Get used to it.
⇒ Keen on travel, I'd like to visit various countries and areas of the world someday.
