A 21-year-old (dork) female living in a small city in eastern Kentucky. I ran across this little gem of a website during a google search (can't quit remember what i was searching for now) And thought, "Hmm...that sounds like a neat idea!" I'm currently employed full-time at a little grocery store named Quality Foods, and fully intend on attempting to enroll in college again this fall, my ultimate goal being to teach either english or art to high school students. I love to read, write, draw, listen to music, play video games, watch films, and discover new things. Hmmm....my favorite colors are red, black, and pink. I also enjoy randomness, cute things, Pokemon, Harry Potter, anime, steampunk, gaiaonline, cool hats, and lots of other things. ^ ^

I would like to think that I like a vast array of music. I would say....most any genre, save for Rap and Country. I get to listen to the same 20 songs on country radio on a daily basis, so....Favorite bands include Say Anything, Alkaline Trio, Alanis Morrissette, As I Lay Dying, Emilie Autumn, Hellogoodbye, The Offspring, and Led Zeppelin. Anything with a piano in it is perfection to me. I have also decided that I'd like to start collecting vinyl. It's...just cool to me.

I will read anything and everything at least once. I don't think a day passes that I don't read SOMETHING. From the classics, to fantasy, to mystery, to the daily newspaper, I simply can't get enough of reading and learning new things! My favorite author would have to be Edgar Allan Poe. Lately...I've been reading a lot of fantasy and science fiction works for young adults. (Thank Stephenie Meyer for it. -_-) But...like I said, I'll read anything.

I absolutely love Disney movies. And, at the same time, horror is possibly my favorite genre. I will watch anything that grabs my attention for a second. Though....I tend to steer away from too much romantic comedy....or romance in general. I suppose I'm not exactly the average girl.

Cutesy, hand-made things make me squee. Anime-inspired hats and modded Steampunk crafts brighten my day. I am also attempting to create a steampunk look for either this Halloween or the next, so any cogs or antique-y things are fabulous~.
