What's it feel like to be a ghost?

About Me


My name is Alexandra, but I'd really prefer to have everyone call me Alex. I'm sixteen. I have green eyes and hair that is about 9 different shades of brown... haha I really need to dye it. I hate talking on the phone, unless I'm really comfortable with the person. MSN and in person are better forms of conversation.
I play the flute and [poorly] attempt guitar. I'm trying to teach myself a bit of piano. I love everything about music, and I want to go to University to study it. Everyone says it these days, but music honestly means absolutely everything to me. It always has and it always will.
I LOVE photography, but I'd really like a new camera. My little Pentax just isn't cutting it anymore. I need to get a job so I can afford the $1000 camera that I'd love to have.
I was born in the winter, but I hate it. Everything is so colorless and lifeless. Summer and autumn are my favorite times of the year.
I don't like things like parties where there are crowds of people, unless I know them. Shows are different, I love shows, and I don't know why being around tons of people there doesn't bother me.
I spend a lot of money on shows. I don't really care, because they make me happy. I get to see my favorite bands perform and sometimes end up talking to them. I get to share the experience with friends, and there's always more than a few laughs. Buy me tickets to a good show, and I'll probably love you forever.
I'm open minded towards music..except that I really hate rap and opera...and music like Metallica, Korn, Slipknot etc.
I honestly cannot go an hour without listening to my iPod. I love it a lot.
I've started to like high school. I love my friends. LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE. I do not know what I would do without them. My school life would be HELL if I didn't have amazing friends like I do, and I love them to bits.
I'm probably one of the most insecure people ever, concerning my looks. I'm trying to get past that and not pay attention to the shallow people that only care about looks. If you're a boy and you don't care about having a stick-thin girl with everything in her chest and no brains in her head.. I'll probably have a lot of respect for you. Shallow boys don't deserve respect.
I have no respect for people who drink and drive, or get high and drive. You're not only putting your life on the line, but you're also putting SO many other peoples' lives on the line. Get a grip and grab a brain, you're going to hurt someone.
Smoking is gross. I've tried it and I don't even know why. It's one of the most disgusting things you can do, not to mention the money you spend on it. Same goes for drugs.
I like meeting new people and I love making new friends. I try really hard not to judge, so if you confide in me, I'm not going to criticize you and tear you apart. Let's talk! Leave me comments. :)headrush_lyts
