Little Laura

Awake, but still I'm dreaming and never waking up.

About Me

I am a student of geography at Lakehead University. I am in my third year and plan to continue on and get my master's and possibly a PhD.I hide myself from a lot of things. I hide from people mostly, but I also don't allow myself to feel things the way I should. I hide behind my clothes, my silliness, and other people. I am trying to change that, by learning who I am and loving myself again.If I couldn't dance, I don't know what I would do. Dancing is how I get rid of my anger, how I workout. I don't care what I look like when I dance. I just dance. MySpace Layouts

My Interests

I think I am a pretty boring person. People tell me that I am like a little old lady sometimes. I am currently exploring the world of cooking. I LOVE cooking for other people. I make a mean pumpkin pie and I make pretty good lasagna too. I enjoy running, especially after years of inactivity. Tea and hot chocolate complete me. I also like cheese...especially in cheesecake form...especially in raspberry cheesecake form. I also love gardens. I want a house someday with a big garden and a greenhouse, lots of trees, a library, and a fireplace in the master bedroom.I also like to make up silly dances to songs.

I'd like to meet:

You.

Music:

I will listen to pretty much anything. Seriously. I only hate music that people make me listen to over and over. I got to have variety. I have a tendency not to listen to lyrics when I listen to music, rather I focus on the sounds. The beats, the voices, and so forth. I can't really just sit and listen to music - I need to dance. Music and dance are my medicine. Whenever I am feeling down I just crank up the tunes and jump around with one arm waving freely. Everyone has to find their own way of experiencing music.

Movies:

I am pretty easy going with movies. What I watch really depends on my mood, for example, I can't watch a silly movie when I am pissed because at that point all I want to see is stuff getting blown up. I am such a sap though and cry during pretty much every movie, even Disney cartoons. I guess my favourite movies are usually those that are based on real life events. Still, Monty Python is a big part of my life. I also can watch Shawshank Redemption, Boondock Saints, and Braveheart over and over again. I also have a very big place in my heart for Labyrinth...oh that movie made me into a dreamer.

Television:

I don't watch all that much televison anymore. But now I only really watch Discovery Channel, especially Daily Planet. I also sometimes watch OLN or the Food Network. I also put on Much Music a lot for background noise.

Books:

I don't read as much as I use to, simply because I don't have the time. Growing up, books were pretty much all I had. They were my best friends.I read a variety of stuff. I still read over all of my childhood favourites, especially anything by L.M. Montgomery. I have a couple favourites that I read every year. I also like to read about plants (I know I am a dork...okay) and cookbooks. I also read about crocheting...hehe.

Heroes:

Older couples who still hold hands.

Depth

How does one make the pain stop, especially when one craves the pain to feel alive? You think it is gone.  You think you are ready. Then you slice your heart open again. And again. Will I ever ...

Thimble

I watched Peter Pan the other day. It is the newest live version of the book. I just can't seem to get the story out of my mind. I've always thought of myself as a bit of an old soul, but when I think...

I spend half of my day trying not to scream.

one of those days

I keep having this dream that my face is red and burning and that no matter what I do I cannot stop the feeling. It is suffocating me. I wake up confused and sweating.
