About Me

!-Custom OnLine Now Icon !-Solution Source: MySpace Code For Updates-!
♠ I will NOT add you, meet you offline, or call you.
♠ Don't hit on me! It is disgusting. Don't make comments about my body or how "hott" my pictures are. My body and pictures are not there for your gratification. If that is your intention, don't bother, I'm NOT interested.
♠ I don't want to "get to know you." I don't want to hear your life story. In all honesty, I don't really want anything to do with you at all. This "space" is for my real-life friends.
♥ BANDS/MUSICIANS: Please add my music profile instead of this one. Thanks.
You can go to my music profile here.

A painter paints his pictures on canvas. But musicians paint their pictures on silence. We provide the music, and you provide the silence.
-Leopold Stokowski
Come away, O human child!
To the waters and the wild
With a faery, hand in hand,
For the world's more full of weeping
than you can understand.
W.B. Yeats


♠ I'm told that I look like a pixie. I have wings and I can fly...you just can't see them.
♥ I love music; it is my life. I make it, perform it, and listen to it. I'm a performer and music education major at Cal State Fullerton (choral conducting, specifically). Choir is my one true love.
♠ I'm intense and impulsive, and I tend to get passionate about the things I truly believe in. I'm all about human rights. I'm pro-choice, pro-gay rights, anti-war, anti-brainwashing by abusing religion (any religion), and anti-idiot (yes, Bush Administration, that means you), among other such liberal beliefs. I'm a feminist and I fight for equality, not superiority. That does not mean I hate men and that does not mean that I'm a lesbian. Indeed, the men in my life would be very surprised to find out that I, since I am a feminist, must hate them. (I hate stereotypes). Yes, that's right, I'm opinionated. Ask me about it if you feel so inclined.
♥ I have a deep appreciation for art and artists, whatever their medium might be.
♠ I love to dance, and am always looking for more people to dance with me.
♥ I love snapdragons and roses. I love pygmy marmosets. Don't ask.
♣ I am a natural blonde; then I got bored and moved on to the next hottest thing. Then I got a job at Disneyland and they made me change it to the next most boring thing...
♥ I am, seasonally, a skipper on the World Famous Jungle Cruise in Disneyland, and a conductor on the Disneyland Railroad. I am a skipper at heart, but my heart is not in the Jungle (how I love that train. All Aboard!).

My Interests

♠ Music
is my life blood.
♥ Friends
are my soul.
♠ Work
is my necessary evil.
♥ Love
is my vice.

I'd like to meet:


These are the people who currently exist on my friends list:
-People I know personally in the world outside of Myspace (yes, friends, there is a world out there).
-People who care about who I am, not what I look like.
-People who, when I am sick or alone, are only a phone call away.
-People who don't disappear from my life.
-People who are grounded in reality.
-People who are shrouded in fantasy.
-People who enjoy things that I enjoy.
-People who love me, and whom I love in return.
-People who have passed in and out of my life.
-People who are true to themselves and who they want to be.
-People who struggle in the search for self.
-
NOTE: I am NOT here to "meet boys."
