I'm Ashley
I like music and movies. I like windows, dreary weather and the beach. I daydream more than the average person and I have very gnarly dreams when I sleep. I like to contemplate the unknown, and I worry about the future too much. I like thought-provoking lyrics and I read way too much. I can't turn down mexican or chinese food and I only like yogurt sometimes. I like jewelery and clothes, but I hate shopping for both. Except when I find a sale rack because then it become a mission. I have fantastic friends, a few who know me inside and out and I'd have a hard time living without them. I won't say that I couldn't live without them, because I was alive before I met them - but then again, things change. Maybe I couldn't live without them?

Don't beg for my respect; earn it.
If I think you're a dipshit, you'll know it.
If I intimidate you, suck it up. I'm not changing.
You lose tons of cool points if you use the word "gay" to describe anything other than a homosexual.
I can kick your ass, but I don't want to.
My friends are way tighter than yours.

"How shall I describe that retinue of elephants? I tear my hair, and think, and think, until I feel I must go mad. I see it all so clearly: can I not coin words? Can I not dip my pen in purple and gold? It was almost like looking at the sun... Most people gazed, and gazed, and were blinded, exhausted: they lost all feeling for colour."

I stand amid the roar
Of a surf-tormented shore,
And I hold within my hand
Grains of the golden sand-
How few! yet how they creep
Through my fingers to the deep,
While I weep- while I weep!
O God! can I not grasp
Them with a tighter clasp?
O God! can I not save
One from the pitiless wave?
Is all that we see or seem
But a dream within a dream?
-an exerpt from "A Dream Within A Dream"
by Edgar Allen Poe.
