I'm Alyse, and this is my myspace. I have other social networking accounts, such as facebook. I hardly use facebook, though. The whole process of writing on someone else's wall is a hassle. And while things on myspace may be an equal amount of lame, I am used to myspace and am comfortable with it. I know how things work here, and I never have to worry about people trying to send me imaginary buttons with almost witty phrases on them.
So I have decided to quit whoring people. It truly is a waste of time at this juncture in my life. I am too old to be worrying about what two-dimensional people think about me. No more funny characters in my name ($) and no banner codes. I'm spring cleaning my life, and that business seems quite unnecessary. I have no problem accepting friend requests and talking to new people, and I reply to most everyone. Be patient with me, I'm still in myspace recovery.
I live in Tampa, Florida with my grandparents. This is for reasons too extensive to go into in this little box. They are shameful, but worth it. I grew up in Nashville, Tennessee and lived there up until a few years ago. I miss the seasons and the school system, but I do not miss my life there. In Tampa it is much more acceptable to be who you are than in Nashville and Smyrna, where you must fit a Teen People stereotype. Tennessee is pretty, but it sure is oppressive.
I am not built for dramatics, so please do not involve me in it. I crack under pressure, and I give in to emotional manipulation. I win most arguments. I am a person backed by emotions, and sometimes it is hard for me to see the logic in things. My feelings are easily hurt, but it's also easy to make it up to me. I am a strong person, and although it may not seem like it, keep in mind that I pick my battles.
I am a christian, a writer, a slam poet, a singer, a reader, a fast talker, an avid texter, a bad liar, a student, a teacher, a leader, and a friend to anyone who needs one. I am a scarf wearing, textbook toting, straight-shooting, feisty young person. I believe in myself and in my capability to do great things.
