"Bottom line is, even if you see them coming, you're not ready for the big moments. No one asks for their life to change, not really. But it does. So, what are we, helpless? Puppets? Nah. The big moments are gonna come, you can't help that. It's what you do afterwards that counts. That's when you find out who you are...You'll see what I mean."

Bonjour. Je suis Jamie-Antonija et j'ai dix-sept ans. (Hello. I am Jamie-Antonija and I'm seventeen years old.)
I am not actually French, but I am effin' Canadian!
I appreciate many things in life; some important, some seemingly insignificant. I love my friends, first and foremost, though I will not take the vast amount of time to list them. They know who they are, yadda yadda, moving on. Music is a big part of what makes me essencially Jamie. I do not stick to one genre, and hate this whole "my music is better than your music" mentality. Why can't people just realize how much heart and soul someone poured into it and respect that? (though some songs are just plain bad...but that doesn't mean the genre itself is) I am not a fan of rap, but that doesn't make what I do listen to better. It's just my preference.
(Celldweller, Queen, David Bowie, Panic at the Disco, Aerosmith, System of a Down, Blink-182, Chris Daughtry, Van Halen, Rob Zombie, Three Days Grace, Elton John, Pink Floyd, Michael Jackson, Lit, No Doubt, The Ramones, Depeche Mode, Black Flag, Rise Against, Alkaline Trio, Jimmy Eat World, Eric Clapton, The Beatles, Buddy Holly, Led Zeppelin, and musicals. I fucking love musicals.)
Movies make up another large part of me. I am full of random and quite frankly useless movie trivia. I am the Scene It? master, and damn proud. Some of my favourite actors include:
Christian Bale (Empire of the Sun, Newsies, Swing Kids, American Psycho, The Machinist, Batman Begins, Harsh Times, A Midsummer Night's Dream, The Prestige)
Hugh Jackman (the X-Men franchise, Happy Feet, The Prestige)
Edward Norton (Fight Club, American History X, The Illusionist)
Gerard Butler (Phantom of the Opera, Dear Frankie, 300)
Clive Owen (Closer, Derailed, Sin City, Children of Men)
Joaquin, River, and Summer Phoenix (Walk the Line, Ladder 49, Stand By Me, SLC Punk!)
some others: The Outsiders, The Breakfast Club, Ferris Bueller's Day Off, Pretty in Pink, The Sandlot, The Mighty Ducks, Ginger Snaps, Clueless, The Girl Next Door, The Dangerous Lives of Altar Boys, Donnie Darko
...yeah. If I went on, it would never end. So now's as good a time as any. I have numerous other favourite actors and movies, but that's enough of that.
I am generally a strange person, I've been told. I randomly break out into song a lot (singing is my passion), most things I say sound like sarcasm, I love to write, but have a hard time finishing stories, I read several books at one time, I bite my nails, I swear more than I should, I have a temper on me, I am focused and dedicated when I want to be, I don't tolerate idiocy, I lurve video games, I sometimes put of random accents for fun, I am an actress, I like manga and some anime, I am highly emotional, and I am too nice for my own good (if I hurt someone's feelings I feel REALLY bad after).
Basically, I am me in a nutshell. You don't get much more like me than I do. Check out my writing. It's alright, I think. I put a lot of effort into it, and so I accept constructive criticism. None of this "you suck! that it all." business, please.
