So, what's your diag-nonsense?

About Me


They call me Shay .
My thoughts create my world. [BLOG]
I might not make sense sometimes,
I speak fluent Shaynglish.
So bare with me.
I'm just that quiet girl in the corner of the room. Get to know me and that will quickly change, I can be rather crazy when I warm up. I'm 21 years young, and hating the real world but dealing with it just like everyone else. I'm a born northerner with Jersey pride, yet I hate the state. Call me a yankee and I'll kick your arse, cause one thing you will learn fast is not to mess with a Jersey girl. I can sometimes be one big walking contradiction if you haven't noticed already, but it makes life more interesting. Hell, I'm just fucking weird.. my mind is just one dark fairytale. I daydream often and find myself spending more time in my own alternate reality. It may sound strange, but it's my way of escaping what this world has become. Don't be surprised if you see me staring at the sky for hours.
I've been living with my boyfriend for two years and I couldn't imagine life without him, I love him lots. We've been through a lot in a short amount of time and it gets tough but it only makes us stronger in the end. ♥ 3.22.06 - forever.
Music is my life! Take it away from me and I will start to go through withdrawals and shake furiously. That is not dramatized at all either, I promise you that. Music has brought me strength at times where I thought there was nothing left, and it has become a very important necessity in my life. "Life kicks you around sometimes. It scares you and beats you up. But there is one day when you realize, you are not just a survivor.. you're a fighter. You're tougher than anything that life throws your way. And you are."
I'm what you call 'artsy fartsy' at times. I love to write, especially poetry and lyrics. I really want to get more into my writing and make it into a career one day since my childhood dreams of being a rock star failed horribly. But as long as I have music in my life I'll make it through just fine. I will always be looking from the corner of my eye for opportunities though, I miss singing.. I'd kill to be in a band.
Lately I have come to realize that if I were to be born in the 70's I'd probably be a hippie. I am sick of hatred, war, and greed. This world has gone to shit and most of the time I live in a fantasy world. "When the power of love overcomes the love of power, the world will know peace." I am a dreamer.. I love anything that lets me escape reality for awhile. I really wish some of the things I imagine could exist, and if they do.. I hope to discover them someday. "I'd like to travel back to when the summer of love seemed about to re-write all the rules forever. I really need more time to slow down and to be myself, and sometimes I wish I could be an artist, messing around with media and materials, really doing something new. I'd like to see into the future, and find you can change it after all, and it would be amazing to see the haunted side of Europe at some point in my life. Right now I would adore a party with a group of interesting people, maybe at a music festival, and I'd invite a vampire to liven things up a bit."
I would love to meet:
God. The grounded artists & musicians. Otep Shamaya. Society's 'rejects'. The freak. A being from another galaxy. The nothing you could never understand. Trent Reznor. The dreamers and the fighters. The survivors. Ville Valo. The spiritual ones and unconditional lovers. Starseeds. Indigo's & Crystal's. The Enlightened. Ronan Harris. The photographer and the captured image. A vampire. A wizard. The fictional characters in my favorite books. A passed soul. You?
Go on, speak your artificial words.
