Britt

I just wanna do something great with my life, I wanna save somebody, and I wanna kill somebody.

About Me

Brittany Annette Bennett...there you go, world, there's my whole name. I was named after a cousin, that i've rarely talked to, and my PeePaw, who was the greatest person, I've ever known. My last name, (which is my maiden name) well, I consider it an honor. So, I'm an artist, an actress, a writer, and if I had the balls, a singer. Now, have I made a living off any of this? No, because like so many others, I am also a dreamer. But there's always "someday." So as of now, I'm back to bartending. I must say I missed it. I couldn't tell ya exactly what it is that I missed, but its good to be back. And I also get to work at Michaels, which alot of people wouldn't think that was cool, but I love it. I work in the framing department. I love Lee's nook, summertime, my "real" friends, the ocean at night, getting paint all over me, singing as loud as I can in my car, ice tea, corndogs, avocados, and blank books. Its the little things that make life worth while. Its the little things that we hold on too. Music is what saves my life. Without it, I don't know where I would be. To me, music is turning yourself inside out and showing the world your soul. Music can take you away from anything. My greatest dream is to sing for a rock band. But the microphone scares me. So, then I have my art. Which I am never afraid of showing. Alot of myself goes into my art. Its my way of communicating with the world. Acting is a past time, as well as running. I love Batman and Bruce Lee. I like every kind of music, in some way or another. My favorite artists are Dali and Judson Huss. And eventhough,I'm not good at taking them, I love good photos. I love photos that make me feel like I'm there, photos that capture a moment. I take pride in the fact that I was raised to never take anything for granted, to work, to be proud of who I am and where I live, to never be selfish and to be humble and honest. I am, but a small speck standing next to the ocean, but I am also a conqueror, a survivor. Life can be so difficult, but getting through it is what makes it worth while. It is the hard times that mold us. I know that I am loved, no matter how much money I have, what I look like, or how many mistakes I make as long as I learn from them. (No matter what...if only every person in the world knew that.) I believe that it does not matter who you are or where you're from, you're message can always be heard if you truly believe in it. I believe in helping people, even if its by just saying hello or simply listening. I believe in planting music and art into everyone. I don't believe in world peace, I am not delusional. I don't believe in killing spiders. I like to think that they're here to watch over us.(weird, huh?) I believe that when you have nothing left, you will always have your faith. Faith is what truly saves you. Is that enough? Oh yeah, and I wanna travel to far away countries...and I will someday, somehow.... body {

My Interests

I would like to learn the harmonica.

I'd like to meet:

Natalie Portman, Fiona Apple, Mike Patton, Be Real, Ben Harpor, Dave Grohl, cause I know he's perfect in every way, Chino Marino, Gwen Stefani, so I could ask her when the hell she's gonna start actually singing again with her band that totally rocked, George W. Bush, so we can laugh together, and drink the blood of our enemies...-I mean so we could just chill, Jack Black, "Borat," Frank Miller, Gerard Butler, Sharon and Ozzy Osbourne, Rob Halford, etc. the list goes on........and on...
You Are Gwen Stefani!
All guys dream about you
And all the girls want to be you
"Sappy pathetic little me
That was the girl I used to be" Who's Your Inner Rock Chick?

Music:

What a broad question. There is so many different kinds of music that I love, and even more that I respect. I love to listen to something where I can close my eyes and feel it in the pit of my stomach. I love music that makes me feel. So, I'm in Abilene, do I like metal? Yeah, I like metal, but to be quite honest, it can be over rated, especially if its not done right. Lets not forget our roots. I love rock, n' roll. I love soul. I love reggae, and I love the blues. My favorite CD's are all of Fiona's, no one can write a song and sing it like she can. Ben Harpor brings me back to the TRUTH, Citizen Cope has dried my eyes, and the FooFighters have given me that little push. Tool and The Deftones comfort me in my darkness, while BOB shows me a light. Blind Melon and The John Butler Trio take me away to a safer place, and Stevie Ray just plain understands. And I can't forget Cypress Hill, well, they're just for fun. And Mike Patton, to say the least, could lead the world to a higher plain, if only they'd listen. The list keeps going...No Doubt, STP, POE, Elton John, Mazzy Star, Portishead, Losa, COC, Black Label, Jack Johnson, Sublime, The Doors, Heart, Air, Bush, Mr. Bungle, Faith No More, Silverchair, Reese, Let's Go Sailing, Veruca Salt, Peeping Tom, Trespassers William, Clutch, Stephen Marley, Butthole Surfers, Pantera, OZZY, ...gosh, I could go on forever, I think you get the picture oh P.S. I totally love Justin Timberlake, I know, I'm a dork but atleast I can admit it.

adopt your own virtual pet!

Its probably not a good idea to get me started on movies. I'll go on and on. BUT to name a few,"300," "Across the Universe," "Stardust," "Boondock Saints," "Hitman," "Kung Fu Hustle," "Kingdom of Heaven,""Pan's Labyrinth," "Closer," "Garden State," "Donnie Darko," "Saved," "Magnolia," "Snatch," The Goonies," "Pulp Fiction" and "Fight Club" "Talladega Nights"(However you spell that) "Nacho Libre," "Tenacious D and The Pick of Destiny" "The Number 23," any pirate movies. I love pirates.......but most importantly, I love Batman. -Except for the "non- Michael Keaton or Christian Bale ones, Val and George just didn't cut it. Who's my favorite Batman you ask?....Michael will always be the real Batman to me, and no one can do dark like Tim Burton. Sorry world, call me old fashioned.

Television:

THE FLINTSTONES, Chapelle Show, Family Guy, SouthPark, That 70's Show, Grey's Anatomy.....and don't laugh, but I really love Step By Step

Conditioning

I really believe that everyday gets harder and harder. I believe that everyday is truly a journey. Sometimes I’m really not sure how much longer I can keep doing this, this just, "getting by." I...

Cashmere Blindfolds

I wear a nametag, put on a smile and sell clothes to women who more then likely don't need another cashmere sweater. For God's sake, did you know it takes about SIX goats to make ONE cashmere sweater?...

As You Slept

The day the world ended, the mannequins melted. The ceiling opened up and the rain came in. Every one I saw was someone I knew or someone I had met in a dream. No one was afraid. In fact no one seemed...
