ICON CREDIT TO THE_MUPPET ON LlIVEJOURNAL. DO NOT STEAL. Me So, hi. My name begins with M, but not with that letter, I am 16, and I write lots and lots of fic. Chances are you won't see most of it up here, because it's almost all unfinished. -headdesk- I like most music, excepting heavy rap about beating up your grandma, classical and screamo. Appearence-wise, I am a quite short, quite skinny weirdo with short ginger hair (natural colour). I have no piercings or tattoos (yet), I have blue eyes that usually house contacts (everybody cheer sarcastically for the short-sighted) and I dress like a colour-blind three year old. Personality-wise, I am painfully optimistic at the same time as being sarcastic and blunt. I have very few friends in the real world, but that's because I don't get on well with most people :) I can be cuttingly honest sometimes, and lots of people don't like that. I also have violent tendencies that tend to put people off. Nothing serious, but when I threaten to hit someone if they don't shut up, I mean it. I'm making myself sound kinda mean, but I'm really not. I squee over ridiculous things (mostly happy endings and adorable icons and fluffy kittens - I want a cat so bad!) and laugh almost non-stop. Apparently I'm quite funny, but I wish I could somehow transfer that to my fics. I can't write comedy. I suck at it. -sigh- My fave TV shows are comedy panels like QI, Buzzcocks and Mock The Week (oh, Frankie Boyle, you hit below the belt every time, but it's so goddamn funny). My hobbies include, but are not limited to, writing, reading, making vids (oh how tempremental are the gods of WMM), singing, sleeping, playing the piano, watching movies, laughing insanely, blowing bubbles from those ready-made soap bubble things with the wands you blow through, swearing, avoiding responsibility, being lazy, eating and working frantically to keep up with the rest of my classes. I do not like the usual (racists, homophobes, etc), but also people who are extremely talented but insist their work is crap, illogical pessimism, awkward situations, sandy beaches, people who are unnecessarily mean to others, bullies, people who ask dumb questions to try and embarrass you, small-time animal abusers (stuff like killing spiders just because you can), pointless relationships, almost all fruits and vegetables and people who break promises. I like rocky beaches, bubbles, funny icons, incredible fanart, inspirational stories, funny stories, old fairytales (of the creepy vein), old rhymes (eg. Rawhead and Bloody Bones), superhero movies, weird clothes that clash, things that glow in the dark, broken clocks and watches, wicca, beautifully made fanvids with manips that make me weep for better software than WMM, films and music that give me goosebumps, film scores, laughing, smiling, making other people happy and not going out of the house for days at a time. Random stuffs: I have a pet corn snake called Dagon, whom I love beyond all belief. :) I adore shiny things, bright colours, and gothic clothing, and I often try to mix the three with varying interesting results. ;) I write down all the quotes I love on brightly coloured post-it notes and stick them above my computer, next to the picture of a Barbados sunset (wish I'd actually taken it), a manip picture of me by a friend, a bunch of stickers and a broken (smashed) watch. I am desperate to get tattoos - I'm going to use the two years I have till I can get it/them done to perfect my ideas. I can't seem to stop smiling sometimes. :) I love blowing the seeds off dandelion heads (tattoo idea, that). I squee constantly about the silliest things. I use the phrase 'for the win!' entirely too much in everyday conversation. Fandom consumes my life, eats my soul and drains my brain. THE PLOTBUNNIES HUNT ME!! I'm SKINNY, so I MUST be anorexic. My fanart - http://myrmidryadthesecond.deviantart.com/ My fanvids - http://www.youtube.com/profile?user=myrmidryad My LiveJournal - http://myrimidryad.livejournal.com/ Current fandom: Merlin. Oh how adorable is Colin Morgan? And how ridiculously beautiful is Katie McGrath? Bradley and Angel are also awesome, and yeah, I'll shut up now before I go off on a massive rant about how much I love it. Quotes Inner me: And what happened to that fic? Me:...it's on hiatus. Inner me: IT'S ALWAYS ON FUCKING HIATUS! Connie: That apple has more bruises than Arnold Schwarzenegger! Ceri: Touch wood. (knocks on Lucy's head) Lucy: Y-hey! G.K Chesterson: Fairytales are more than true: not because they tell us that dragons exist, but because they tell us that dragons can be beaten. Herm Albright: A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort. Jimi Hendrix: When the power of love overcomes the love of power, then the world will know peace. Eddie Izzard: F...I'll get a tray, fuck it. This ones wet. And this ones wet, and this ones wet, this one is wet, this one is wet - did you dry these in a rainforest? Why, with the power of the death star do we not have a tray that is fucking dry? Quote from Death Star Canteen animated here - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sv5iEK-IEzw watch it. Trust me. It's extremely funny! Peter: I refuse to believe I am the only blond in the history of Narnia Quote from Black Dwarves, Blue River by the incredible elecktrum. If you a Narnia fan, her stories will blow you away. Guaranteed. Omi: In your head Raimundo! Raimundo: In my face! Omi: Talk to my fingers. Gaius: I presume it's the plight of the druid boy that's causing your head to wrinkle like a lizard's elbow? Tom: He's heading for the waffles! ~ Cheaper by the Dozen People said that pigs would fly when America had a black president, and sure enough, within 100 days of Obama's presidency, swine flu. Emo Phillips: When I was a kid I used to pray every night for a new bicycle. Then I realised God doesn’t work that way, so I stole one and prayed for forgiveness. aerylia on LJ: As long as you're BREATHING, you're not FAILING. Steve Landesburg: Honesty is the best policy, but insanity is a better defense. E.L. Doctrow: Writing is a socially acceptable form of schizophrenia. From an empty room on the first floor | |||||||
