About Me

well, my name's laura "Syddalee" and i'm a music major. i've loved and lost and rewritten all my philosophies on the subject, although i still consider myself a hopeless romantic. i have 2 cats, a calico named Janey and a rolly-polly-ish black and white cat named Little One. that is her Name. don't tell me i should change it, i won't. i'm now a sister of the Eta Omega chapter of Tau Beta Sigma and that is awesome! i heart all my bros and sisses!

final words? freckles are cool and commercial breaks are not. well, maybe they are, but it depends on what you're talking about. ~~laura (or "red" or "Syddalee" or "Sydda" as you may prefer)

My Interests

photography, writing, playin' music, cool bands, collecting weird stuff, movies, parties, pointy objects, freckles, red hair, france, trogdor, strongbad, ireland, backpacking, switchfoot, incubus, guster, guitars, politics, coffee, manga, blogs (apparently), books, computers, snakes, the stuff growing in my closet, socks, toes, second degree burns, people who cut their own hair and fail, people who cut their own hair and succeed, people who have never gotten a paper cut, how not to get sunburns, more freckles, babysitting, band (i play a lot of instruments), eh--it's a lot of stuff. i like the word nyaa. don't ask me why.

I'd like to meet:

someone who wants my autograph. that's my dream. probably not gonna happen, but who knows? maybe someone will mistake me for a famous redheaded person and ask me to sign a cocktail napkin. and then look at me funny when they see my name. XP

Music:

i like any band that has a good sound with some good lyrics to go with it. like switchfoot off the top of my head, or maroon 5 or modest mouse or pink floyd. actually, i like anything oldies, classic rock, alternative, indie, plus a select few country singers/rappers. i really really really don't like avril lavigne because IMHO she doesn't have talent as a singer, song writer, or a musician. you can take issue with this if you want, but that's how i feel about it and nothing is gonna change my mind. otherwise, i'm pretty openminded when it comes to music.

Movies:

i like a lot of different kinds of movies. old stuff like "the music man" and "pillow talk" and "sabrina" aaaaaaaaand less old stuff like "the princess bride" and "monty python/holy grail" and "breakfast club" aaaaaaaand really not old stuff like "chicago" and "moulin rouge" and "spanglish" and anything adam sandler aaaaaaaaaaand lots of disney movies, but only the animated ones

Television:

i like too much on TV to tell you all of it, so what i don't like? i don't like reality shows, stupid shows on MTV, anything on the biography channel or BBC America (which my mom is, unfortunately, addicted to), or all those depressing movies on lifetime. i mean, if you want to get *that* depressed when you're watching TV, just kill yourself already.

Books:

sure, i like books. i like a lot of books. preferably ones that i can read. and ones with good authors. although a lot of the time, i think i could do a better job at it. oh, and they have to have pages. pages are important when i'm buying a book. and the word "the." that's really important too.

Heroes:

duhnnn da-da-daaaaaaaa! Quail-man! (man-man-man-man-man) yeah, um, nevermind.
