Not perfect. Don't wanna be.

About Me


I edited my profile with Thomas’ Myspace Editor V3.6 !
This could take a while. How shall we begin?

Foundation: At basic, I am brutal, blunt, practical. I am driven, and I know my limits. I will not take personal bullshit from people. I cut out things I dislike deeply. While I get along with a lot of people, my standards are high, and these standards exist to keep me happy. I get pretty bitchy at times.Humanity: I believe in being honest. I believe in skill and aesthetic senses. I believe that everyone has a story to tell, and while I will make blanket statements (such as, Asians Piss Me Off), I am willing to give the individual a chance to tell their story. I judge superficially, but if a person is doing what they want because they want to, and they're having fun, and they're not hurting anybody, I rarely, if ever, have anything bad to say about them. I respect those who are self-aware, and thus aware of others, and of the entire human race.Sexuality: My sexuality is more sensuality-based. I believe that sex is a basic instinct of people that should not be denied. To learn about one's body and its capabilities is important. I respect the sexual act as a union between its participants for one brief, wonderful moment.Literature: The Word contains the World. Institutions have used literature to shape the world, for better or for worse. When I turn the pages of a good book, I see many aspects of humanity trapped inside it, art imitating life, and then life imitating art. Literature contains history, psychology, sociology, anthropology, philosophy, science, and a myriad of other things we study in schools. Then I turn to my own words, and spill them across a blank sheet. Who needs drugs to explore the mind when all one has to do is think and bring forth the ideas?Ideals: The world is a chaotic place. HAIL ERIS. The key is to find my place in this eye of the storm. I will take along Love, Beauty, and Words with me. I can't change the fact that this is an absurd world, meaningless, random, confusing. But I can give myself meaning: to be capable of affection, of depth, of giving.So sprinkle us with fairy dust.

Entertainment

Seeing as I'm depressed and trying to avoid it, I've been going out quite a bit. Last night I went to see Oh! Beautiful! Majestic! Eagle! who were weird but good, I love synth sounds. Then Pink Velve...

How can we be satisfied?

The more compliments I get on my new look, the more dissatisfied I feel, for some reason. I miss my old hair. I miss the old me which was perfectly satisfied with how I looked, even without makeup on....

Feels like something empty

So last weekend I went to be a L'Oreal Professional model, and gave up more than half my hair that I'd been keeping for the past nine years or so. It was a numbing experience, but the resulting hairs...

Few more days to 22

I'n turning twenty two in a few days... which actually kind of depresses me. Last year, when I was twenty one, there was a lot of leaps and bounds to be made: in my culture, age twenty-one is the trad...

Calming down

After thinking back on this afternoon crazy act of messaging everyone I felt I could talk to, and calling some others, just to find a lunch buddy, I'm thinking that that was just plain stupid and desp...

What's with me and punk shows?

I don't even like punk. But Jane's invited me to a punk show tonight and I'm considering going, just because I want to see her. Before, it's because Sean was going to be there. I don't know. Why are s...

Annoyed and irritated

On most days, I'm proud of myself. I like to have myself figured out, and for most part, I'm in control. I don't fit in, but then, I don't give in to peer pressure - something I'm extremely proud of. ...
