This is my old FF.net account. Too many people I know personally know about this account, so I'm starting over with a new account. I might possibly update one of the stories on here, given inspiration, but any new stories will be posted on my new account.
Me
Here begins what is to be a long-winded explanation about my favorite topic: me. Actually, I'm not really a fan of myself but I can talk about myself a lot if I need to. And I consider this necessary.
I'm Sarah, you can call me that since there's really no good nickname for it. My last name isn't Valentine, but I was born the day after Valentine's Day and I don't really feel like telling you my real last name because I don't really like it. Yep. I'm 16, born on February 15, 1991, in Chicagoland, but now I live in New England. Apparently, some people don't know where New England is. Basically, it's the Northeast section of the USA where nothing ever happens.
Anyway. I have hazel eyes and dark brown hair striped with blond. At the moment. My natural hair color is dark brown, but it changes a lot. It's about chin length, with bangs... Umm I'm like 5'7"ish. People say I'm skinny but I'm really average-weight. Well, not compared to the whole country, since the country is obese, but in comparison with people in New England.
I'm a Junior in High School, and I only speak English but I can read Latin (I took two years worth of Latin)... And I'm taking German, but I'm not that good at it. I don't have a job, but I volunteer a lot.
I play piano & guitar, the former much better than the latter. I've taken six years of piano lessons and only about a year or two of guitar. Music is basically my life. I like tons of bands, don't ask me to list them. I'm obsessed with going to shows, and I've seen Panic! at the Disco, Jack's Mannequin, Plain White T's, Fall Out Boy, the Early November, New Found Glory, Permanent Me, My Chemical Romance, Rise Against, This Providence, Forgive Durden, Cute Is What We Aim For, Paramore, The Audition, The Hush Sound, Kill Hannah, Powerspace, Hawthorne Heights, and tons of others. And that's just recently.
Kill Hannah is my favorite band. It's an obsession.
I also love to read & write, despite the fact that where I come from reading and writing is pretty much taboo for anyone who isn't an English teacher. My favorite author of all time is Chuck Palahniuk, he's just amazing. Besides all of his books, favorite books include the Abarat series, Jade Green, Farenheit 451, Anthem, Skellig, anything Dan Brown, the Daughters of the Moon & Sons of the Dark series, Stravaganza, Twilight, the Harry Potter books (hated the movies though... only saw 1-3), and the A-List series (it's a guilty pleasure). I also like some of Meg Cabot's stuff.
I'm a stereotypical girl in that I love to shop. But I'm very picky about my clothes. I buy tons of t-shirts from Hot Topic, but other than that the clothes shops I like are pretty obscure. Which is why I love shopping in Boston. I love Anthropologie, Jasmine Sola, Lucky, and this little unique botique called Markus & Leslie. I also am obsessed with a brand of jeans called A.G., they're basically the only jeans I'll wear now, even though I only have two pairs. They're really expensive, though, like $150+. I will pay a LOT for good jeans.
I've been a vegetarian for 2 years. I love Italian food.
I could live off of Lo-Carb Monster.
I love to travel. Especially to foreign countries. Besides the U.S., I've been to Canada, Mexico, England, France, Germany, Austria, and Italy. Top three cities I've been to would have to be Chicago, Liverpool, and New York City. In that order. I plan on going to college in Chicago and living there in an apartment.
I'm done for now.
xo,
Sarah
