About Me

MYSPACE IS DEAD. FACEBOOK!

"you were just a boy on a bed in a room, like a kaleidoscope is a tube full of bits of broken glass. but the way i saw you was pieces refracting the light, shifting into an infinite universe of flowers and rainbows and insects and planets, magical dividing cells, pictures no one else knew."
i'm erica (lynn); sixteen & in grade twelve. the one way to make me hate you is to mess with anyone that i care about. i have a big heart & i forgive far too easily for my own good, but i can be a heinous bitch if i don't know any better. i'm overly serious & a total kid all at once. basically i'm a walking contradiction, & i won't be changing any time soon.
you should probably be made aware that i'm the biggest diet coke addict. ever. i can outdrink you in aspartame any day, fool. i have a really big weakness for ice cream even though i'm slightly lactose intolerant. that's why they invented pills, yes. i try to surround myself with bright colours to make myself happy. my room is lime green with hot pink & neon blue everywhere. i have polka-dotted curtains, powerpuff girls sheets, & a carebears calendar. i indulge in cute childish things & fashion magazines full of things i can't afford, or that i even really want. i like confusing people.
there are three things in life that i can't stand: math, chicken, & shoes. i wear flipflops almost soon as it's above ten degrees, & i go barefoot whenever possible. i've hiked up & down mountains for hours with nothing on my feet. & you know what? it's worth the mud between my toes.
i breathe poetry & music. sylvia plath & e.e. cummings are some of my favourites. any book by francesca lia block has made me cry at some point. i strongly advise you to turn off the tv & go read sometime. it's always fun to vicariously live a fairy tale.
