I'm a spunky, bubbly, obsessive, dark person. My mood can completely 180 my personality, and I've been known to be too nice and be a bitch within 30 minutes. I enjoy making conversation with intelligent and composed people. I am always there as a friendly ear for my friends and have been known to give advice.

I am obsessed with reading manga, novels and looking at art. I love horror movies and I think that most of the "new" horror movies are comeplete shit. IE: The Grudge, and various movies such as that. Horror movies should not be rated PG-anything. I also enjoy writing stories and poems.

I was born in Redlands California, and by the time I was 5, my parents and I moved to Hawaii, and lived on the military base on Honolulu. My father was in the airforce until my mother got into bad car accident, which has limited her back movement even today. We moved around California for the next 10 years of my life, until we learned that my grandmother was ill with kidney cancer. My mother decided to move out of state because it would be too difficult for her to watch her mother decay. My mother and I were very close to my grandmother. She was everything to both of us. We moved to Ohio to start anew. It was difficult to move to a different state with a different curriculum in the middle of my 10th grade year. Ohio was behind in the studies that I was learning, and I soon lost interest in my classes. I was getting very sick the year we moved out here, so my mom took me to the doctor to get me checked. It turned out that I have Hashimoto's Thyroiditis. It was another difficult thing to understand when I was 15, that I suddenly had a chronic disease. In late August of 2003, my mother received a phone call from my grandfather, saying that my grandmother had passed away. It was a large blow to take in. I had turned 16 that month.

My thyroid levels were extremely unstable for many months, and I got really behind in my studies. I was fluxating between sleeping 13 hours a day, fatigue and being depressed. My mother pulled me out of public school and put me in home schooling, where I finished out my schooling. So, this means that I had made no friends in Ohio for years. My levels continued to get worse, and I continued to get worse. In June of 2005, I tried to commit suicide by overdosing on various pills. I ended up vomiting for hours. After that, I wrote my "Suicidal Lies" article, and have made it a motto of mine. You cannot write an aspiring article for others, unless you've been there yourself.

I take each day one day at a time, and have my friends across the world to help me achieve each day with success. My parents and experiences are a large stepping stone in my life, and without them I wouldn't be who I am today. My parents are my shelter, my friends are my strength, and my mind is my weapon. I may not have any friends in ohio, just yet, but I have the best ones online. I know I am the most luckiest person to have had the people in my life as I do now. I could never thank them enough, to tell them in words just how much they've saved me.

I have an interesting variety of television shows that I enjoy watching and they go a little something like this;

Robot Chicken, Family Guy, Futurama, Heroes, Prison Break, CSI

As for movies... there's too many I've seen to list. I can probably give you a couple of my favorites; Nightmare Before Christmas, Resident Evil, Queen of the Damned, The Crow, Eight Below, Harry Potter, Finding Nemo, Butterfly Effect, and Disney movies, I love Disney movies.
