About Me

The name's Mhairi. You can call me Maz if you like. Or Pegleg.
I'm short. Don't call me a shrimp or I'll kick you in the kneecaps.
Yeah, done with school WAHEY! Off to Paisley in September to do forensic science so yeah, should be groovy. I have a job now. Work for my dad at Minuteman Press in Paisley. Tis pretty fun, minus answering the phone.
I take lots of things seriously. But I have a sense of humour even if it is pretty caustic. I can be shy. And I have pretty good first judgements of people.
I've been vegetarian since April 1st 2004. Meat is bad for you and it's sick. Why put a dead creature in your mouth? I've been straight edge since January 1st 2006. Alcohol, smoking and drugs are pointless.
I take too many things to heart and let myself become neurotic over them. I don't like how I look but I don't go on about it. I just deal with it. I use sarcasm and cynicism to stop people getting close enough to hurt me again. I can be a bitch. I stick up for myself, my principles and my friends. I don't believe in God but I do believe in something up there so let's say I'm agnostic. I'm emo and proud. But I'm not a scene kid. My mum is more hardcore than yours. I see more and more of my dad's personality in me everyday. I know that nothing hurts more than having your best friend of over three years who you've helped out in bad times when you had your own problems to deal with turn around and stab you in the back and then bitch and lie about you online when you try to apologise.
I'm an excellent cook. Come over sometime and let me demonstrate. I can take some pretty pictures. I can also draw a little bit.
What makes me smile:
Comments from Megan.
Going to gigs and hanging around with the band.
Cuddles.
Eeyore.
Gingerbread men!
Having my dad say he's proud of me.
Uber crew banter.
MSN convos with Paul.
Making other people happy.
When people like my hair, my eyes or my sense of humour.
What makes me frown:
The smell of meat.
Folk who blow cigarette smoke in my face.
When people stare at me when I'm out trying to have a laugh.
When people don't get my sense of humour.
When people don't message back.

My Interests

Straight edge, photography, art, shopping, sketching, Sims 2, reading, South Park, making photobooks, collecting stuff from gigs (ie plectrums, set lists, tickets, posters, etc).

I'd like to meet:

You, you sexy beast!

Vegetarian for 3 years

April 1st 2007 - vegetarian for 3 years. That means I've saved the lives of 270 animals as 90 animals per year are eaten by the average human.    Bit sick innit?
