I am here for Friends

About Me

I'm the kind of person that is hard to get to know, but if I let you in you're my friend for life. I don't have much in the way of self esteem, but one thing I do pride myself on is individuality. I very much enjoy defying the mind numbing structure of the dominant paradigm because in short, I think it's bullshit. What star is fucking who, or what they are wearing, or where they get shit faced, or who's in rehab doesn't matter. It has no significance to anything, and if you think it does then you are not the kind of person that needs to add me to their friends list. The only advice I can give to you is to read a book, educate yourself on the goings on of the world outside of Hollyweird. It's a big world out there...I've never been one to care what other people think of me. I encourage anyone reading this to adopt that mentality. Trying to live up to other people's expectations will only make you miserable. It will only oppress one's ability to be themselves, and the right to be nothing less than EXACTLY who and what you are is one of the most precious gifts of individuality. Or at least I think so.....I'm obsessed with art. Creative expression is the oxygen in my lungs, it is the blood in my veins, and it is the truest essence of life. The title for my biggest inspiration is a cross between Dr. Hunter S. Thompson, Jim Morrison, Salvador Dali, and Otep Shamaya. They are my muses. They are the glue that holds me together in times of ultimate despair, and for this I am eternally grateful to them...I've recently become more involved in political affairs, though I'm not quite as educated on the topic as I'd like. But I'm making progress. One thing I can say for certain is I despise George Bush with a vengeance comparable only to the wrath of the gods of ancient Greece. I cannot wait for that fear-mongering, murderous, greedy war pig to be kicked the fuck out of office.I'm Sapphic, and will not apologize for it. For those of you who do not know what that means, it's another term for lesbian. (Look up Sappho in google. She was a brilliant writer, and I only hope that one day I will be able to gain even a sliver of the talent that woman possessed.) If you have a tendancy to be homophobic, racist, sexist, or any other kind of prejudiced "ist" don't bother adding me. If there is anything else you would like to know about me you can contact me on aim. My name on there is ChildofSappho

My Interests

Playing the wallflower, archaeology, world history, linguistics, locking myself within the confines of my mind, artistic expression, writing my fingers to the poetic bone, singing, my two rats Zora and Zelda, and my albino kitty Artemis, and many other things I'm too sleep deprived to dredge up right now...

I'd like to meet:

"I don't believe that the meek will inherit the earth: the meek get ignored and trampled. They decompose in the bloody soil of war, of business, of art, and they rot into the warm ground under the spring rains. It is the bold, the loud-mouthed, the cruel, the vital, the revolutionaries, the might in arms and will, who march over the soft patient flesh that lies beneath their cleated boots."-Sylvia PlathAny artist, poet, activist, political provocateur, rabble-rouser, free thinker, or old soul that is starving for a change in society. I wouldn't object to meeting some intelligent, creative, and/or pretty girls either.
