About Me


i hate writing "about me" things. i am sarcastic, a good speller, a member of the grammar police, and get angry at people who don't use their turn signals. i love my friends. i get crazy attached to people, things, and events. i crave excitement/change. i like butterflies and dragonflies. i have 4 tattoos and want more. pain is interesting to me. timidity really annoys me. i don't like burning bridges or cutting off possible opportunities. i avoid committment like the plague. i possess a strange mixture of cockiness and self-depreciation. i enjoy playing dress-up. i'm really really really into music, playing piano, organ, harpsichord, and now guitar; i can't decide whether i want to do music or english in grad school. i love my little boy (who is not so little, going to first grade this year). i am somewhat bitter because life has not been so easy for me, despite what my pervasive sense of humor might tell you. when i'm happy, i'm really HAPPY! when i'm depressed, i'm really depressed...
the test below said about me: Stability results were moderately low which suggests you are worrying, insecure, emotional, and anxious.Orderliness results were very low which suggests you are overly flexible, improvised, and fun seeking at the expense too often of reliability, work ethic, and long term accomplishment.Extraversion results were high which suggests you are overly talkative, outgoing, sociable and interacting at the expense too often of developing your own individual interests and internally based identity.craves attention, messy, open, rash, irritable, likes large parties, low self control, weird, fragile, does not like to be alone, emotionally sensitive, worrying, depressed, heart over mind, does not respect authority, dependent, not rule conscious, not good at saving money, more interested in relationships than intellectual pursuits, likes to fit in, very social, frequently second guesses self, phobic, suspicious, not careful, outgoing, vain, compassionate, aggressive, likes to make fun, hates to lose...sounds kinda bad, eh? :)

What is your element? [with pics + detailed answeres]
Your element is Wind. You are the guy/girl that is unpredictable. No one knows what you're going to do next and what you're in the mood for. Studying is not your thing and you would rather go to a party than stay home. Life is just for fun and you need to be free to live according to you. You waste no time on lies, if you feel or think one thing you say it even if it hurts. Of course, people may be quite upset but that doesn't really bother you. It's not that you don't care, because you do, but in these situations it's a waste of time. You live up in the clouds and are quite a dreamer about life. People often consider you beautiful, but harsh and they would think twice before getting to know you. But once they do, they'll learn that you are always willing to take yourself and your friends on adventures. Never will it be a boring time with you and your friends appreciate that. You are not often seen sad, but you have your times. If someone has been mean to you, you can quite easily trash-talk them for betraying you. Nevertheless, you are most of the time a good spirit who just want to have some fun.

Music:


Mostly like to listen to hard rock/metal...seether, shine down, disturbed, metallica, nickelback, taproot, system of a down, evans blue, hinder, breaking benjamin, evanescence, korn, and staind are a few of my favs... if i'm playing it, i like bach, pachelbel, schumann on piano/organ, and basically any song with easy chords on guitar. (beware, i also know the lyrics to almost any popular song from 1920-1970, and yes, i will quote them randomly)

Movies:

Comedies or horror, or old weird stuff that no one else likes or has heard of...gone with the wind, psycho, vertigo, moulin rouge, star wars, tommy boy, wayne's world, indiana jones trilogy, boondock saints, fight club, a clockwork orange, the emperor's new groove, just friends, saw I II & III, the princess bride, the last of the mohicans, enemy at the gates, are a few.

Television:

i don't watch a lot of tv because most of it is very stupid. i like quiz shows because i like to show off my intelligence occasionally. PUSTULLIO ROCKS! (invader zim...) mystery science theatre 3000, becker, home improvement, seinfeld, scrubs, snl, when i have satellite i love game show network and nick at nite...match game and i love lucy crack me up. yeah i'm like a crabby old lady in a 24 year old's body.

Books:

i love children's/adolescent lit... ramona quimby, a wrinkle in time and its sequels, the witch of blackbird pond, the chronicles of narnia, holes, the dark is rising series, harry potter. adult books i love are the poisonwood bible, pride and prejudice, the tragical history of dr. faustus, one flew over the cuckoo's nest, and gone with the wind.

Heroes:

edna st. vincent millay, edgar allan poe, beethoven, the schumanns
