About Me

Here is my replacement space for the one that got hacked.
No, that's not my legal name (yet). I'm a visual artist first and foremost, and a rabid rock'n'roll fanatic second. Really, those two are neck and neck. And dragons are my favourite animal ever.
I'm the sort of person who will dance alone in public if the music is good enough. I'm also the sort of person whose hair colour and style is constantly changing. I may not be a Briton, but I make a point of trying to spell like one because I see traditional spelling as more pure and correct than American spelling. One of my hobbies is cloning. Not cloning sheep, but cloning other people (you can see this in my photos). There's something deeply satisfying about negating my individuality every so often (I think it must be a warped expression of the desire to fit in and/or disappear into a group).
If you've met me in person, you may have noticed that I don't talk or smile much. This isn't because I don't like you. It's because I am very shy/a natural introvert and tend to stumble awkwardly over words if I have to speak them instead of write them. Groups of people make me very nervous. Bascially, if I talk to you at all, it means I am interested in you.
Oh, and by the way, I arbitrarily change my listed sex from time to time because I am annoyed that they do not have an 'other' option on MySpace. Refer to me how you like, 'cause I'm not telling. ;)
A few facts:
-I'm vegetarian, but I won't talk to you about it unless you ask. I would be vegan, but I love dairy too much.
-I'm mixed race (even though I look totally white).
-I may be vegetarian, but that doesn't stop me from drooling over leather and fur.
-I play guitar. I'm ok at it. I dink around on piano sometimes, too, and can play the ocarina solo in Wild Thing. :D
-Milk is my favourite food and drink.
-The tallest shoes I've ever worn had five inch heels and four inch platforms. I wanna go MUCH higher!
-I'm naturally nocturnal. I was sleeping in till one in the afternoon when I was eight years old, and it's only gotten worse. Now I prefer to wake between 3 and 6 pm, and retire at dawn.
Well, on the street where you live I could not hold up my head
For I gave all I had in another bed
On another floor
In the back of a car
In a cellar like a church with the door ajar
Well, I guess we must be looking for a different kind
But we can't stop trying 'til we break up our minds
'Til the sun drips blood on the seedy young knights
Who press you on the ground while shaking in fright
I guess we could cruise down one more time
With you by my side, I should be fine
We'll buy some drugs and watch a band
Then jump in a river holding hands
