About Me


"...but when she looked my way something mad as hell came over me..."
"Anesthesia" - Bad Religion
Ok boys & girls, I'll try my best not to ramble, but my name is Erin Gow, & I DO talk alot... I will however try to make this brief:
*I see the best in everyone...unfortunately... *
*I talk alot & don't always think before I do....*
*In case you're thinking, "Where the hell do I know her from?" (cause everyone asks that) I worked at the music store in the welfare "mall" for nearly 4 years...."oh yeah...", you say, "That's it..."*
*I say "Howdy" & "Farewell"... & yo, yo... on a regular basis. I also curse way too much*
I have a Thundercats sleeping bag as a bedspread.*
*I am the messiest person ever, although I am trying to reform.*
*Some people are music people, I love music, but movies are my thing. I am a movie person.*
*I laugh really hard & really loud, especially at inappropriate times.*
*I am a Diet Coke fiend... I need it, everyday...it's liquid happiness... I used to call it Goddes Juice in my youth :)*
I have too many pictures like these taken oven the years... these ones are really old. I was about 17....*
*I can give 'er, to say the least*
I need cigarettes to live... I love to smoke, not quitting anytime soon...even though I have the lung capacity of a chipmunk.*
*I have "Luscious Mango" (yes, that's really the name of my color) hair, & have since I was 16... *
*I have way more guy friends than girl friends... I think alot of girls are lame. However I have my special few....*
*I am the world's worst( or best?) procrastinator.*
*I want about a million tattoos, but have never managed to spend the money on even one... I'm cheap...*
*Speaking of money, I'm shitty with it.*
*And speaking of cheap, I rarely spend more than $20 on any one article of clothing... my mom & I usually hit the the strip up in Oromocto where there's a bunch of thrift stores... it's a sweet place to shop... & we nearly piss ourselves laughing everytime we go....*
*And yeah, speaking of my mom, she's so freaking good... everyone loves my mom, she's a special lady...*
*Boys always fall in love with me for a few days when they meet me... but only a few days. I'm a little hard to handle...*
*Despite the fact you'd think my memory is shit, I remember everything, I have an awesome photographic memory... which can be weird, I remember weird things.... *
*I hang onto things for a long time, whether it clothes or people. If I loved you once, I pretty much always will, whether you're a dress or something else.*
*I can't wear white - I get it dirty in two seconds flat... Lord knows what I'll do at my wedding...*
*I am an actual beauty school drop-out.... hahahaha, however, I learned nothing from that school that I hadn't already learned from Cosmo & Seventeen... hahahaha.....*
*I still say, "When I grow up..."*
*I am gangly as hell - my forearms are a wee bit freakest (but come in handy in many situations).*
I told you... gangly as hell... this is my E.T. picture....
I can talk to everyone, even though some people annoy me... I think I annoy ALOT of people, so that's ok.
*Sometimes I don't wash my hair...hell, usually I don't even comb it... & I ususally cut it myself (ooops...)
*I love my cat, Verbal, & he loves me... so would you if you met him... I talk, he talks back, I can get him to walk anywheres with me & he always sleeps with me... he's a good man... & handsome as hell, the Tom Selleck of cats.....
*I hate being ignored.
*I can so make an ass of myself, & kind of enjoy it... I can definately laugh at myself... you can't be too seriously for things like that....*
*I still think I'm 16....
*I like to dumpster dive & pick up shit from the side of the road.*
*I am definately a Star Wars freak.*
*I have catch phrases... alot of them.*
*I am uber forgiving... try me... my wrath is swift & to the point, then I'm over it.... really...*BR
*I always changed the empty toilet paper roll at other people's houses.*
*I am a really, really good cook, just don't ask me exactly what I put in it... but I can't bake worth shit because I totally suck at following recipes
*I am actually a pretty cute girl, if I do say so myself. I have a somewhat delicate face, but you probably won't see that in many pictures.... I have a tendancy to make "faces"... my brother Jamie also makes the same "faces"... that's why his friends call me "Jamie-face"...
*I can't drive a car... it terrifies me... but I've been considering it, & maybe I should get my learner's in 2007? It would be the "responsible" thing to do....
*I eat like a man... & it's starting to catch up with me. My vegan roommate is horrified with my eating. I can also eat things that are so spicy it'd cause flames to shoot out most people asses... Iron stomach, that's me.
*It's hard to stay mad at me, I'm very endearing.*
*I am a walking contradiction.*
*The world would be alot better if everyone had a little Erin-Love (& not the dirty kind!)*
That pretty much sums me up. I do like to ramble & I do like to tell stories, so you might keep that in mind before you read my blog (I blog like I talk). Soon I'll be getting more pictures & stuff up, be patient, & I'm trying to figure out codes...how am I doing? So anyways boys & girls, thanks for looking at my site & check ya later!

    "Love is patient, love is kind.
    It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud.
    It is not rude, it is not self-seeking,
    It is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs.
    Love does not delight in evil, but rejoices with the truth.
    It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perserveres...
    Love never ends..." Corinthians 13:4-8

    MY BEST FRIEND NICHOLE

    I'd like to meet:

    First of all, if anyone is into comics I advise them to click on the link below & check out my brother's prologue... give him some feed back!

    Now I'll tell you who'd I'd like to not meet: all these idiots that send me messages that say "U R Hawt.... what your MSN?" or "We have alot in common" but I go to their profile & they're playing a Chingy song & live for university hockey... UGH! JUST BECAUSE I TOOK ONE CUTE PICTURE THAT DOES NOT MEAN THAT I WANT TO TALK TO YOU! Besides that - Nippleback fans, people who haven't even seen Star Wars, people I hated in high school, lame people, ignorant fools & people that wear Von Dutch hats.... especially if they're askew (lamest trend ever)....

    Music:

    My absolute favorite band in the whole wide world is so BAD RELIGION .... I love them so much I can barely stand it.

    Look how young they are... & how beautiful Greg Graffin is...
    Besides that I'm a little all over the place...I love Weezer (I've loved the blue album since I was twelve) Sublime, Goldfinger, NOFX, Moneen, Fleetwood Mac, ABBA, Beatles, old school Madonna (think Immaculate Collection), Bob Marley, the Shins, Rancid, Roxette, Heart, The Doors, Simon & Garfunkel, Led Zeppelin, Tom Petty, Rise Against, Metric, DropKick Murphys, crazy 80's one hit wonders, The Killers, The Arcade Fire, Matt Mays, Me First & the Gimme Gimmes, old school Bon Jovi, the Clash, the Vandals, Blondie, Roy Orbinson, Cyndi Lauper, the Mamas & the Papas, White Stripes, Jimi Hendrix, Metallica, C.C.R., Lynard Skynard, Bob Dylan, Good Riddance, Bouncing Souls, Iggy Pop & the Stooges, Janis Joplin, Jimmy Eat World, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Ramones, Bob Seger, Blue Rodeo, old-school Elton John, Grateful Dead, Allman Brothers, Paul Simon, Pennywise, Dr.Dre & his affiliates (for the most part) Stone Temple Pilots, the Pogues, Rob Zombie, Black Sabbath, good ol' GNFR, Neil Young & Marching band music... Oh yeah, & El Diablo, I mean Crosstown Rivals... yeah, they're the shit....

    Me & Jon Feldman from Goldfinger (in my hand-painted "Recipe for Hate" shirt)... & yes, that's Kyle's head in the way....

    For dislikes, I have a few & number one is Nippleback, I fucking hate them. Besides that, I can't stand any bands that sound like Nippleback (ex. Theory of a Nippleback & Three Doors Nippleback), most country (except for old school), Good Sucklotte, Billy Suck-Suck, most of this screamo shit that's around these days, anything they play at the bar, Destiny's Child, anything that's super disposable (songs you won't remember a year from now), Ja-Rule (I used to call him Ja-Fucker, but it doesn't have much of a ring to it), Norah Jones & Celine Dion...

  • STAR WARS is number one, always will be number one, every single freakin' one of them.... ton's o' love for the Star Wars... favorite movies since birth...Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind is absolutely amazing... if you haven't seen it, run out & rent it now - you will love it.... if you don't, you're lame....

  • Dazed & Confused - everyone likes Dazed & Confused, it's just a fact... & Wooderson is schweet.
  • Godfather Part I & II - yeah, III does have it's moments, but these two do it for me. Besides, III has cousin incest... I love you Kyle, just not like that.
  • The Princess Bride - "As you wish...", I was thinking of naming my future daughter Buttercup, do you think she would get teased at school?
  • The Lost Boys - Aaaaah, it's Corey X 2. And Kiefer & Bill (Alex Winters)... too good, they even have Doors posters in their lair...
