'ey y'all, i'm erin, also known as `zona to many of my friends. gah, i'm obsessed with books and writing,

i'm a published poet, and now want to try to actually get my name out there with a story or two.

in many of the things i do, i don't use capitalisation, don't worry, i know how to use it, just don't like it.

i'm not all that sure why even. haha.

okay, i love music; i play my fair share of instruments and have a few favourite bands and songs,

music is, to put frankly, my life. i play oboe, flute, cello, guitar, harmonica, and recorder. haha on the last one

and, my favourite bands consist of 3 doors down, jason mraz, the beatles, blink-182, blue oyster cult,

darren criss, idina menzel, jason aldean, lifehouse, skillet, train and quite a few more

for my newest favourite song; as long as you're mine - wicked cast. i've had the album for ages, but i got

to see the musical over spring break this year. ZOMG! amahsing.

i love animals, i have two dogs; a border collie x lab who's probably one of the sweetest animals i've ever met.

she gave me a hug when i got home today. i also have a german shepherd x doberman who is my baby girl, my

ferocious guard dog. beyond that, there are five cats who i believe are plotting to take over the world, heh, yeah. . .

you think i'm joking, and i have my guinea pig - yoda.

hmm. . . m'kay, i have an assortment of shows that i watch almost religiously. house, csi: miami, bones, the glades,

off the map, in plain sight, and numb3rs. i only just got hooked on the last two, thank you netflix, but they are awesome,

definitely check them out. i have a few friends who compare me to calleigh from csi because of the whole southern thing,

that, and i'm blonde. i absolutely adore all of those shows though, and off the map is being considered for cancelation,

which will absolutely break my heart. it's bad enough that numb3rs and 10 things i hate about you were canceled.

the only other thing is that yes, i am a red-head, and i do have the temper to back that up, even though i'm mostly blonde,

and people know when i'm actually mad rather than just irked because a.) my accent switches to a british / australian mix, and

b.) i occasionally switch languages. other than that, i am on the engineering team at my school, one of the people in charge

at that, and i am about to be a senior, which holy-crap scares me to death, but it's also kind of refreshing, it means i'm this much

closer to getting out into the real world and hopefully into the world of writing professionally.
