Well, to be brief, as this profile needs to undergo major renovation, I'm 22, a creative writing student, who's heart is not in South Carolina.

I'm extremely close to my family, I have three sisters--all of whom are leggy and beautiful, all of whom are younger. And I love them to death. Yeah, we fight, argue, complain about each other, but we're sisters. And I love my parents insanely so. xD

My friends I would do anything for....even if that means getting in a car and driving hundreds of miles to see them. I've done it before and would be more than willing to again.

I'm a university student, a senior, and currently in the process of searching for grad schools. Currently my sights are set on Portland State University for their Publishing and Writing program.

And some random things about me:

* I am probably one of the most modest people you know. I'm shy to a fault at times, I can accept compliments graciously, but I'll probably think you need your eyes checked or something of the sort.

* I'm a sucker for pretty words and I fall easily but I can hide it pretty well. If you show me attention and I actually talk to you there's a chance I'll slip into stereotypical school girl crush syndrome. But I'll never tell you. I'm not setting myself up for failure. Despite this I am loyal to a fault. Not cloistering, I'll never infringe, but if you've got me- you've got me 100%. I would do most anything for the boy or girl I'm with.

* Most of my friends are "normal" so the speak, so don't let my appearance put you off. ^^ I'm actually pretty down to earth. ^^

* I'm a sucker for eyes...and smiles.

* Oh I do smile. Apparently I don't smile in photos, as I've been told, but I definitely smile all the time. =^.^=

* I'm a music snob. Contrary to someone's particular belief, I won't force my music upon you. I might beg you to listen to a song or something but if you absolutely don't want it, it doesn't happen.

*This is important, because it seems to bother a lot of people. I'm socially liberal, but economically conservative. I have some definite opinions and while I'm not huge into political science, I base all of my opinions on facts and would be happy for a calm discussion if you so choose. xD But do not, in any way, try to make me feel stupid. Because I won't take kindly to that.

* I am loyal to a fault sometimes. I've been described as a "puppy dog." I think it was perhaps an insult, but oh well.

* I will not cyber, roleplay sexually, or anything of the sort with anyone.. You will be blocked.

*I call people "lovely" if I think they are. Do not mistake it for me hitting on you.

* I am a roleplayer- have been for nine plus years (text based). I do forum based, though I have tried my hand at pen and paper rpgs. I'm very picky about who I RP with...As a writer I expect the other players to be good/passable writers as well.

* For all that I enjoy BDSM, I am romantically very traditional. I love the idea of love.

* I jump in puddles and twirl in circles in the rain. And I sing with a hairbrush as my microphone.

* If I tell you something doesn't matter when you ask my opinion, usually dealing with something to do, I honestly don't have an opinion. There's no hidden message there or anything of the sort. I just don't particularly have a preference.

* I'm a college student majoring in Creative Writing and Art history. I want to work in publishing one day.

* I left part of my soul in Europe. I will return there to reclaim it. =^.^=

* I play the KEYTAR (Yes, that is what it is)

* If someone is worth it I will travel pretty far to see them and I've paid for one person's ticket to see me. Distance, as troubling as it can be at times, is not impossible. =^.^=

* I'm a romantic in the wrong century

* I love to cuddle and kiss. Insanely so.

* I am PANSEXUAL. Gender is irrelevant to me.

* I'm a very friendly person and I love meeting new people

* I think too much like a girl.

* I write out full words in my text messages...no text speak.

* I love to travel.

* I hate liars and I will not put up with you if you are one. I've had my share of them and I'm over it.

* Religions of all kinds are beautiful but don't try to toss your beliefs at me. I have my own spirituality.

* I ADORE getting all dressed up.

* I BELIEVE in magic, unicorns, and faeries

As my university won't let me double major I'm getting a Creative Writing/English degree..next step grad school.

I am the editor in chief of USCU Literary Magazine--WritersINC. Second year! xD

I'm attempting to revise my novel. I'm getting there slowly. This is my all consuming goal at the moment...oh and classes. xD <--First edit done! On to edit two. xD

And I'm trying to pick up my hair falls business again....and voodoo dollies! Yipee! 0.o

I'm not really good at anything of much importance- just little things- those things which are often unnoticed except by a few.

Listening. And talking. I'm an amazing talker. You have no idea. My dad used to pay me to shut up when I was little. ^^

And making those faces that I put into action brackets...like..¬shifty eyes¬ and ¬scrunches nose¬...the only one I can't do is ¬arches eyebrow¬ Both my eyebrows seem to go up but oh well xD

I'm also good at dancing around my room with a hairbrush singing....it's fun and I've perfected it...

I'm good at making funny faces apparently...One day my face will freeze that way, but until than...xD

And I'm good at not opening up to people...which is actually bad...but I'm good at it.

I dress differently sometimes, I have piercings (lip (x2) and nose, industrial, and eyebrow), my hair is generally a different color (aw, not now...). And I'm not a size zero. That's on a face value look.

As for something slightly deeper, yet still part of a first impression- I'm polite and shy at first, and I have insanely expressive eyes, as told to me by one of my professors, which in some ways creeped me out. xD

I adore reading. Wuthering Heights,The Tattooed Girl, Girl With The Pearl Earring, The Black Jewels Trilogy, The Virgin Blue, Lost Souls, Drawing Blood, One Foot Out Of Eden,Anne Rice's Sleeping Beauty Series, Pride and Prejudice, The Graveyard Book, American Gods, The Good Fairies of New York, Nineteen Minutes,to name a few. I also love manga, including Loveless, Model, Gravitation

Music is amazing. I love industrial,synthpop, ambient, techno, EBM, 80s...Some of my favorite bands are London After Midnight, Bella Morte,The Birthday Massacre, VNV Nation, The Cruxshadows, Combichrist, Rasputina, Grateful Dead, Panic! at the Disco, Dresden Dolls, Mesh, Aiden, AFI, Blaqk Audio, Stromkern, Seabound, Billy Joel, Bob Dylan, Billy Holiday (he makes me giggle), The Beatles, The Kinks, Simon and Garfunkel, Elevator Confession, Velvet Acid Christ, Emilie Autumn. Currently I have a new love for To Be Juliet's Secret

And, as for food. Chocolate..and pasta. And Indian food...I lost my Indian food buddy to grad school in Kentucky. =[ xD And mm I like to cook period. Not that I'm all that good at it, but yeah. I can only cook like four things....pasta (Several different kinds by the way), tex mex stuff (I worked at Pancheros for a semester..ten times better than Moes. xD)..and brisket with awesome special rice and spinach! ....well that's probably all..but I can bake. xD

And movies. I love movies. I like foreign films, comedies, movies that make me think, and psychological movies. And the good old chick flick. ^^

Aside from the usuals- water, food..I couldn't do without

1. actual hand written letters.

2. Music.

3. My family

4. Those few good friends I have.

5. Books.

6. Art.

There are other things too...

I think a lot about the existence of happiness and the meaning of life- seriously. And I think about other people and how to make others happy. And I think about random things...like magic and the like.. xD

I also spend a lot of time thinking about romance...like old school courting and stuff like that. It's brilliant really and it makes me feel good.

I also think about why in the world I gave up caffeine. I miss it.

I'm usually relaxing. I go to school and work all week so Fridays are my me time....Sometimes I go out dancing, though that is pretty rare, even though I like to dance, and sometimes I'm hanging out with a friends--in particular Mallory. And sometimes I'm at the bookstore skimming through new things to read.

It's not unusual to see me sitting in a bookstore with a cup of hot chocolate (at all times of the year) and a new book.

When I go into bookstores, and I see a title that catches my eye, I pick it up and look to see who published it. If, and only if, I know the publisher, and like the publisher, I buy the book right away. If I don't know the publisher I read the back and make a decision from there. I'm apparently not an equal opportunity reader.

And I call my parents mommy and daddy even though I'm 22.

I sleep with a stuffed toy...well I did until my little sister stole her. And I collect My Little Ponies...well...my parents give me one every year for my birthday. =^.^=

And I have a history of self injury. My reasons are my own, but it's made me who I am today and overall I like the person I am today. --Some people sometimes want to know why I share this, but I've learned that sharing it allows me to protect myself. I've lost some people close to me when they've found out later.

And there are some bigger things but you'll get to know them if you get to know me.

* Well, since is is a dating site I'll start with the reason to do with wanting to be with me. I want something real. I don't care if it's long distance to start, because anything can be made to work- anything, if you want it enough. I want someone I can talk to, who can listen, who will actually talk to me back, who can be funny and serious when need be, who isn't ashamed of me, who doesn't lie, and who cares. I'm not looking for short term crap- it's a waste of everyone's time.

So this is what I want and I stole this from Ali, but it's mostly true. Take it as a guideline. "I want love. I want someone that can treat me like a person. Not a sex toy. Someone who would sing to me at random moments. Someone who is goofy AND romantic. Someone who would throw stuffed animals at me when I'm acting dumb. Someone who would play with my hair&surprise me with 25-cent rings. Someone who I could lay on a blanket with to count the stars. I wear my heart on my sleeve,and I can't help it. I just want someone that will be there for me. No matter what."

....if you want to talk, maybe make a friend, or anything of the sort, I'm a good person to chat with. xD

Oh, and if you would be willing to watch The Last Unicorn with me, you're amazing and I definitely want to talk to you.

If you want to make watching Criminal Minds a fun weekly event xD

And if you like to dance around in your room singing to music than I want to talk to you too.

And if you'll put up with my music ADD when in the car.

And if you'll put up with the fact that I have some emotional baggage. I'm more than capable of telling you if you feel like you need to know.

And if you believe in unicorns, or want to go faerie hunting with me in the woods...or if you don't mind me talking in my sleep.

And if you like adventures. xD
