Here's some more indepth things about me:

Overall Personality
From what I can tell, I'm cynical, sarcastic, intelligent, and aloof but I still have a crazy sense of humor. I don't trust or like most humans and prefer to keep my friends to a small group of people. Though I don't seem like it most of the time, I'm very friendly and will help anyone if they needed it, even my enemies. I've been told that I can be quite abrupt in speaking and sometimes condescending, but I don't really care much about that.

Quick Background
~ I'm an African American teen from inner city Baltimore better known as "City of the Damned".
~ I've been through, and is still going through, a lot in life but I don't intend to give up. Once upon a time, I wanted to die, but I've gotten over that and I'm very proud of the obstacle I overcame.
~ I come from a Christian mother and an atheist father, and I am, for the most part, a Christian like my mother. I haven't found my purpose in life yet, but I'm sure I'm getting close.
~ My family is the most important thing to me. My best friends are my three cousins (one older, two younger). We grew up together and though we went our separate ways at one point, we just sorta found our way back together in the end.

Favorite Things
~ Cats: I absolutely adore those animals. Clever, independent, strong, sexy, and still super cute, these animals represent everything I am and want to be. I have two of my own and I'm taking care of my boyfriend's cat as well for the time being. I used to have four but two of them have passed away and I miss them both severely.
~ Guitars: My favorite instrument. You can do so many fun sounds with a good electric guitar. I want to really learn how to play one one day and maybe start my own band. Right now, I just have to settle for swooning over guitarists and listening to awesome guitar solos in my favorite songs.
~ Stars: I like stargazing though the city doesn't have much to offer. One day I'd like to go to a real observatory and see the planets through a telescope and see all the galaxies that have been discovered.
~ Roses: My previous favorite flower was the cherry blossoms, but they suck now. Just how they symbolize life and love they symbolize fragility, weakness, and death. Well, to me they do. Roses, however, are the kings/queens of the flower world and represent power. My favorites especially are the red and "black" roses, symbolic for love and death/hatred respectfully. I plan to send a "black" rose to someone someday....
~ Spring: I like 65-70 degree weather. Anything colder and I freeze because my body doesn't retain heat the way it should. Anything hotter I get sick because I don't respond well to heat. Not sure what's wrong with me. Plus, spring is the time of new beginnings; and who doesn't want new beginnings?
~ Mew: That's my favorite Pokemon...it looks like a pink, mutated kitty and is, in my opinion, the strongest of all Pokemon because of its wide variety of moves it can learn. If you wish to battle me on Pearl, you have to wait until I set up my Mew army! icon_whee.gif
~ Black: My favorite color. Not really sure why. I just love that color though I look so dull wearing it because of my skin color (it all just blends in).

Least Favorite Things:
~ Thunderstorms: I'm terrified of thunderstorms to the point its actually a phobia (as in, it interrupts my daily life). Though I guess its not thunderstorms I'm afraid of, its tornadoes, which can form from supercell thunderstorms. Whenever there's a thunderstorm, I hyperventilate and cry like a baby. Its embarrassing to be 19 and still afraid of thunderstorms, but hey, we all have something we fear, right?
~ Elitists: God I hate people like that. You know, people who think they know EVERYTHING and try to put you down because they think you don't. Its one thing to show your knowledge, its another thing to be pretentious and boastful about it.
~ Abusers: Anyone who abuses anything. I hate the thought of someone taking advantage of someone weaker than them or in a state of weaknesses. I am a strong advocate against animal abuse, elderly abuse, and domestic violence especially. I believe offenders should be stoned to death or receive the worst death possible. Their 8th Amendment protection against cruel and unusual punishment should be stripped for the horrors they've put others through. And I am dead serious.
~ Yellow: I hate this color with a passion. It burns my eyes every time I see it. I'm not sure why.
~ Tulips: I think they're overrated...simple as that.

Personal Dreams:
One of the dreams I've had since I was little was to be a published writer and win a Pulitzer Prize for Literature. I also hope to one day publish my own comics. But for now, I'm going to college to be a psychiatrist. There were a few dark events in my life that I suppose you could say probably screwed me up for good, and I'd like to study the mind and perhaps "cure" myself and help others who have been through similar situations as myself. I'm also planning to open an animal shelter with my boyfriend/future husband because animals have always been a love of mine. I hate seeing stray animals and I always feel so bad that they don't have a home. Hopefully I'll be able to give them homes in the future. Overall, I really just want to do something that will help the world become a better place than this crappy shithole it is now.

Basic Appearance:
~ Height: 5'7"
~ Weight: Between 116lbs-120lbs
* Yes, I'm quite tall and rather thin. However, I still have curves just like any other woman (so fat =/= curvy thank you very much).
* I don't have a big butt and I don't have big breasts, so get that stereotype of Blacks out of your mind right now!
~ Complexion: Brown, I'd say about the color of creamy coffee (yummy)
~ Eye Color: Brown, though I wish they were blue
~Hair: Shoulder length and black

Relationship Status:
~ Currently: I'm taken and even if I wasn't, I'm not interested in online relationships. Sorry guys. And I couldn't be happier. He's my everything, I love him with all my heart. I do plan to spend the rest of my life with him and if it doesn't work out that way, I hope that we can at least be friends forever.
~ General Standards: I don't do online dating. Its dangerous and desperate. I also don't date shorter guys or guys my height. Any race is beautiful as long as they are good peoples. Guitarists are awesome. Tall, dark, and handsome...strong and silent...dark and brooding...ya know, those stereotypes. Glad I found that all in one person!
~ Past: I have only had one boyfriend before the one I have now. It wasn't a very healthy relationship for either of us and we had to part ways.
.....To put it nicely......
I think I'm lucky to have only had one past relationship. I hope it stays that way.
