Love is hard to find. Putting trust in someone else is harder.

About Me

Heya, what's up? Name's Emma Balbi, friends call me Em, but now my sis has dubbed me as 'Mosh' [as I am the only metal head in my Media class, and she just thought she'd give me a nickname], 'Yoshi' and 'Scrunchie' [...I don't know either], and I'm also part Italian. And also, if ya laugh at the fact that I don't look like a girl, then you try being a twin who actually wants to look, be and feel different in any way remotely possible and also not look how everyone wants or expects you to look, so f**k you who do. I am very shy, and have had my heart broken and ripped out of my chest enough times. I absolutely love Trivium, they're my favourite band. I'm doing my third year in college, as I am studying media for two more years, and I want to be a bassist. I still want to keep trying to accomplish my dream of being an illustrator for Square Enix. I am also aspiring to be a lyricist...and I like doodling Japanese anime, and I like all kinda music.Star Wars Gangsta RapDeath Note Movie English TrailerDeath Note: Opening CreditsDeath Note: End CreditsRed vs Blue: Episode 39Gears Of War 2 RendezvousSephiroth and Kadaj's Mother's LullabyCOGS Episode 1 Part 1COGS Episode 1 Part 2COGS Episode 2: Die, Zombies DieGears of War - The A TeamFinal Fantasy VII: Last Order

I like listening to metal music, drawing and watching anime, playing the Final Fantasy series [especially VII, can't live without it], Gears Of War (as if I needed to say it), The World Ends With You, Rock Band, Guitar Hero 1, 2, Rocks The 80s and 3, Shin Megami Tensei Lucifer's Call, Digital Devil Saga, Devil Summoner: Raidou Kuzunoha vs The Soulless Army, Halo 1, 2 and 3, Kingdom Hearts I, II and Chain Of Memories...I dunno I think a few of my lists might go on.

I'd like to meet:

Hmmmmm...well, I guess to start with, people who can actully like me for who and what I am. Trivium, Gary Jules, Metallica, Iron Maiden, the old Lynyrd Skynyrd [if they were still alive, R.I.P], Steve Wilkos (wish I could be confident to help people like you, and I wouldn't dream of getting on the wrong side of you), Jeremy Kyle (you're awesome as well as Steve), Tetsuya Nomura, Nobuo Uematsu, Takeshi Nozue [all three from Square Enix, and are also my heros in computer games designing] Johnny Depp, Synyster Gates [so I could rub it in my twin sis' face, but she's beaten me to it by being added on his myspace], Cliffy B, Rod Fergusson, Lee Perry (from Epic Games), John DiMaggio (y'know, Bender Futurama, Wakka & Kimarhri from Final Fantasy X, Marcus Fenix Gears Of War), Carlos Ferro (Dom Santiago Gears Of War...and waaaaayyyy too many other things to list), Fred Tatasciore (hope I spelt that right, and is the voice of Damon Baird from Gears, additional voices in Family Guy...and loads more), Steve Burton (voice of Cloud Strife)...

Music:

Ahhh, right! Mainly metal, but Trivium, Lynyrd Skynyrd, Gary Jules, Pendulum, a lil bit o' Japanese pop [Utada Hikaru], Metallica, Iron Maiden, Helloween, Anarchy Club, Machine Head, Bullet For My Valentine, Dragonforce [playing Through the Fire and Flames is harsh on GH3], Pearl Jam, Pantera, Disturbed, any kind of music done by Nobuo Umatsu and Martin O'Donnell, Pendulum, a Justin Timberlake song [I'm not proud of it dammit!], Lamb Of God, Cream, Weird Al Yankovic [I think I got it right, and he's hilarious]...um, etcetera, ecetera, it goes I guess...

Movies:

Final Fantasy VII: Advent Children [no.1 film for me], Ring/Ringu, Ichi the Killer, The Eye Trilogy, The Grudge [English and Japanese], Battle Royale I and II, Black Christmas [orig. and remake], Nightmare Before Christmas, Edward Scissorhands, Pirates Of The Carribean, Vampire Hunter D, Ninja Scroll, Akira, Yu-Gi-Oh! The Movie, Predator I and II, Alien Vs Predator, Bottom: Guest House Paradiso, Bottom Live 1-5, Seven, Ace Ventura films, The Mask...

Television:

Don't usually watch much of it but...Steve Wilkos (amazing show, better than Jerry Springer by a mile), The Jeremy Kyle Show, Spongebob Squarepants [blame my older brother and my twin sis], House, Happy Tree Friends, Kingdom Hearts on Crack and COGS (check it out on YouTube!), Death Note, Scryed, Gundam Wing, Gundam Seed, Full Metal Alchemist, Sonic the Hedgehog( I know I'm a tad old for it), Sonic X, Yu-Gi-Oh! [the ones with Yugi, the REAL king of games], Grey's Anatomy, Final Fantasy Unlimited, Dragonball Z, Top Gear, The IT Crowd, The Simpsons, Futurama, Will & Grace,Ghost Whisperer, Ask A Ninja, Harry Hill's TV Burp, The Young Ones, Filthy Rich and Catflap, Bottom...there maybe a little more.

Books:

Not much, but anime books (Kingdom Hearts Devil May Cry 3, Death Note, Battle Royal, Demon Diary), Richard Hammond: On The Edge, The Ring Trilogy, Halo book series...it's gotta actually interest me! And I can't wait for Gears Of War: Aspho Fields!!

Heroes:

To begin with, my big brother David; he's looked after me and taught me so much. Paul Harries (Kerrang! photographer), Sam Scott Hunter(Metal Hammer photographer), Carlos Ferro, Kayley Nelson (photographer), Tetsuya Nomura, Nobuo Uematsu, Takeshi Nozue (all 3 from Square Enix), Trivium, Gary Jules, Metallica, Iron Maiden, Linkin Park...love their talent.
