Okay, so almost my entire profile is quotes, so if you want to learn about me, read the first 1/3, then if you want to have some fun, read the rest.

Visual Purple is a chemical found in your EYES! (hint hint) A Very Fine Denominate (cough cough) BILL NYE! (don't ask)

My age is described as tall with brown eyes (although they look green...). I am a female Christian who lives in the USA.

Recommendations- Read the fanfic Forever Alive by Mordred- it's supercalifragilisticexpialidocious! Also read PearlGirl's stories, and Alania's, they're superlative! And read the poems about Count Olaf and Lemony Snicket by my sister, blueacorn5, cause they're phenomenal and she can write very good poetry. And if you're looking for a cloak/robe for Halloween or another occasion (school projects, Harry Potter parties, etc.) my cousin makes them and sells them on e-bay. I can vouch and say they are very high quality. Her buisness name is Turgollo (cloak-maker in elvish) and you can find her on e-bay or at Turgollo@hotmail.com

My sister, my cousins, and I have created a new account for our group, The Endeavours. Please read our story. It is funny. I know it. I helped write it.

Favorite books- Harry Potter, the Chronicles of Narnia, A Series of Unfortunate Events, Ender's Game, Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, Jonathan Strange and Mr. Norrell, Artemis Fowl, the Lord of the Rings, Holes, And Then there Were None, The Diary of A Young Girl (Anne Frank), The Silence of the Lambs, His Dark Materials, Lionboy, The Phantom Tollbooth, Sherlock Holmes, the Bible, and endless others!

Favorite movies- The Lord of the Rings, Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl, The Dark Knight, Finding Nemo, Star Wars, Back to the Future, Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory (that movie makes me hungry), Jumanji, Spider-man 2, The Great Mouse Detective (it's awesome!) The Chronicles of Narnia, The Lion King, National Treasure, Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest, etc.

Favorite Musicals- Jekyll and Hyde, Annie, Wicked (never actually seen it, but the music is terrific), Les Miserables, the Sound of Music, Sweeny Todd, Jesus Christ: Superstar, Cats, Footloose (some songs), Rent, and the Phantom of the Opera.

Favorite heroes/heroines- Sirius Black, Remus Lupin, James Potter, Hermione Granger, Ronald Weasley, Fred and George Weasley, Aragorn, Lemony Snicket, Jacques Snicket, Kit Snicket, the Baudelaires, the Quagmires, Doc (from Back to the Future), Jonathan Strange, Henry Jekyll, Meg Giry, Yoda (with you, the force is), Obi-Wan Kenobi, Spider-man, Jean Valjean, Cosette, G(a)linda, and lots more I just can't think of right now.

Favorite villains- Severus Snape (good or evil?.. no... greasy!), Voldemort, Inspector Javert, Lex Luthor, Darth Vader (who can't like Darth Vader, I mean come on- he's awesome), the Phantom (of the opera), Edward Hyde, Count Olaf, Brad (ha ha... just kidding... or am I? See the Marching Band quotes), Hannibal Lecter (scariest villain EVER), Elphaba, and the Joker.

Hobbies- Eating chocolate, and fruit (go bananas!), writing letters (Hi PearlGirl!), hanging out with my friends, reading, drawing, writing fanfiction, speaking Spanish, playing piano and clarinet, and marching! Go Marching Band!

Dislikes- kieshka (if you don't know what it is, good), stupid popular stuff (Spongebob, High School Musical, etc.), slash, swearing, most ships, and all sorts of other stuff which I do not wish to speak of here because I would bore you to death with the huge list of things I don't like, such as olives, whining little brothers, when someone says they're a good "drawer" (IT'S ARTIST! Come on!), when people clump up in hallways and travel in 'herds', fingernails on a blackboard (shiver)...

If you like ASOUE then here's some interesting things: "The Little Snicket Lad" goes great to the tune of Gilligan's Island. I'm not kidding! Try it. (thanks to Pearlgirl and her sis) ;-) If you say Ike Anwhistle's name very quickly it turns into "I can whistle". He he!
