Of course it's gonna get better.

About Me

aim schiiism
neopets dragonmars3000
Though my priorities and interests constantly shift on the surface, I can't say that I have changed very much as a person throughout my life. My genuine values are completely timeless and unconditional; that is to say, love in all its traditional and unexpected forms.
I am a multi-faceted person: humorous, earnest, brain-intensive, talented, avoidable, inadequate; I am a walking, drawing, dancing contradiction (who likes to list things out a lot). My metaphorical well runs deeper than eyes can see, but what of those who reach, those who venture below the smooth surface to more turbulent waters? Others have done such before.. and left bitter pollution in their wakes. I have learned that allowing easy entry to such depths breeds rampant disappointment and loss. Frankly? If you're not the type of person to make sincere emotional investments, do me a favor and stay the hell away from me.
In spite of the occasional pessimism (cough), I strive to be the best I can. This ideology shapes all of my actions and goals. People all too often become comfortable with their own shortcomings and that, I believe, is what stunts personal growth, development, and maturity. I realize that I am not perfect in any way, but I try to attain the closest level within my reach. I think the world would be a better place if only others would do the same.
If anything, I want ambition to be my undoing.

I'd like to meet:

Know this: I expect a lot from people who I let close to me, but never too much, and you'll always get something in return.
I like people who have something unique to offer. I want to meet someone who will help me grow as a person and will not leach off of my positive qualities, however few they may be. If your mind and manner are vapid, then don't bother; I need something more than a pretty face or a pleasant personality.
You know what I really want? People who are themselves, allow me the same, and can make me happy anyway.

Teenage angst; pay no heed.

STAB ME PLEASE. This, I think, is my worst down since my daddy died.

But there is hope.

So, a week after Nicolas de Lenfent's passing, I've gotten another hamster. He's a dwarf (Nicki was a long haired teddy bear), so I'm hoping that he won't remind me too much of Nicki.. I always get de...
