I am here for Friends

About Me

Music is everything.
Support local music!!
I'm always up for hanging out and having a good time. I want to travel everywhere. I love the rain. I'm definitely a smartass and full of sarcasm. I won't be someone I'm not to make anyone happy. I won't tell you what you want to hear just to make you feel better. I make a fool of myself at least once a week, so stick around and you're bound to get some entertainment in one form or another. I can be the best friend you'll ever have. I'm the coolest chick you'll ever meet.
"I'd rather be an open sinner than a false saint."

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

I like to meet everyone. I want people around me who are open, honest, sincere, fun, crazy, relaxed, reliable, open minded, etc. Basically anyone who doesn't play games and isn't an ass.

Be who you really are.

Private profiles are stupid. If you want something to be private, get off myspace. I'm not going to add you if you can't bother sending me a message. I don't usually add people I've never met anyway.

My Blog

*insert appropriate title here*

I sit down here to write, not knowing what it is I'm trying to say. Maybe just to get my thoughts out without any real purpose intended. But what is it I'm thinking? What's on my mind? Everything and ...

It's time.

The past month I've felt like a failure. I finally overruled this inherent sense of responsibility in favor of my sanity, and the only people who don't support me in my decision are, of course the one...

You finished off my half-empty glass.

Do you ever have a fleeting train of thought you're tempted to follow? A way of thinking that tricks you into feeling like if you just let go, somehow everything will go away and you'll feel better? I...

I'd rather be an open sinner than a false saint.

Didn't you hear?... I'm a bad influence. For anyone who does or has presumed to know my "religious views"/reasons for not going to church... I thought you should know exactly what you're talking about...

I'm no poet

I'm not a writer.  I don't write ever.  I'm not... creative.  So don't ask me where the hell this stuff came from.  They're not poetry... They're not lyrics... They don't even make...

Hallo!

So this is what I do when I'm bored.   They liked me so much they immortalized me in plastic.   Is this what it looks like to get run over?   My favorite place to stay.   That 8...

sound waves crashing

It's times like these I need a fast car, loud music, and a long stretch of empty road.  When do things get better?....  Maybe this is as good as it gets.  At least when you're alone the...

Together We'll Ring In the New Year

These are some lyrics to a song I love.  It makes me feel better to know that someone out there felt, or feels, exactly the same way I do. "I'm not smiling behind this fake veneer.  I a...

bad karma

I've always said my friends don't deserve me. I hate being right.  I hate that they matter to me.  Why can't I stop caring?  Is it bad karma?  Did I piss off some omnipotent cosmic...
