Salutations

1. What do you do? (Hobbies, job)
I am still a student.
Don't be jealous.
I enjoy writing; and art; and music.
Reading is also a enjoyable past time of mine..

2. Where are you from?
I was born in a very uptight town in Alabama.

3. Who is your favorite author?
Byron, Poe and Poppy Z. Brite.
H.P Lovecraft.
Gregory Galloway.
Eion Colfier.
4. What are your favorite films?
Donnie Darko. Alice in Wonderland. Fight Club. Casablanca. Moulin Rouge.

5. What music do you want played at your wedding?
I would have to say Industrial. Why not brighten the party with some good ole :wumpscut and Skinny Puppy? Maybe some Throbbing Gristle.

6. At your funeral?
Mozart. Siouxsie and the Banshees.

7. This IS a gothic website, so... how do you want to die?
I would like to go out in flames. I would like every part of my body to go out in magnificent embers.
Either that or peacefully prone and silent beside a large oak tree, in an obscure forest, with a dagger pierced into my abdomen. My crimson blood spilling slowly onto the wet grass.

9. What's your FAVORITE outfit?
I like to wear black boots; with a black choppy skirt and sometimes a band t-shirt.
11. What's your favorite band?
HIM. I know, I know. They suck. Stupid poseur band!
12. What kind of education do you have? What is/was/will be your major?
I am still in middle school.

13. Why did you join?
I don’t know. Usually I am regarded as just another young gothic poseur. I can not help when I was born.
14. If the first 13 questions didn't give it away. What is your gender?
I am very much female. Well at least I hope so.

Age is a number. Maturity is what you will be judged on here.

I've loved HIM for a while now. I love them to death and it is hard for me to just drop a band because they become popular. It is like me trying to quit skittles.

And I like you to

Welcome!

I would just like to say (not directly to you but to everyone) that I like HIM too, and that just because bands become popular by alot of poseurs dosn't make them poseurs. Liking a popular or a poseur band dosn't make you any less goth and to me, you don't seem like a poseur at all. Hell! I listen to Korn and even if they are posuers I love the shit out of their music! Being goth means your creative, very unique and many other things. It doesn't mean you have to listen to certain bands, like certain things, or be anything but yourself. Anyway, I think you have really nice tastes and you'll do here very nicley. I'm really beginning to like you.
I hope you like it here!

I like a couple of Korn songs.
The only band that I can't really stand is Hawthorne Heights.
I secretly like My Chemical Romance.

Their Albums look odd mixed in with my Android Lust and Coil albums {witch is the way they are on my album rack} but you can't help liking what you like.

The fact that you can admit to liking some very controversial bands despite impending tar and feathering, is very ballsy…

A band is only controversial when people make them out to be that way.

It shouldn't really matter.

But then again I am fourteen years old so my music taste is not supposed to be amazing.

If you let everything out in the open there is no room for anyone to insult you because you are already prepared for it.

Usually the insults go back to the basic ideas of 'You’re a fucking moron for liking -insert band name here- and your nothing but a mindless teeny' or one of my favorites 'Your opinion does count' or ‘Your opinion is stupid’.

Frankly I’ve never got that one completely.
If my opinion did not count or was utterly ridicules why on earth would someone actually take their time to argue with me?

I like My Chemical Romance.

I like Green Day.

I love HIM...AND Sex Gang Children.

Nothing I can do about it.
As long as I have the people that matter close to me everyone else can simply sink into oblivion.

But I am glad that you like me and I will most likely like you as well.

what i meant by contraversial, was "goth or not".
i tell people if i think what they think is stupid...but even if i think it's stupid, it's still their opinion. i could never take that away from anyone...though i can disagree...
if that makes sense...

Hey again... just wanted to formally welcome you, since I totally forget to read these things...

I already told you how I lust after your name, but I wanted to add that I liked your avvy too. Do you not talk much in public? I'm a lot more outspoken in forums, myself. Wa-a-ay better at listening (and reading)...

I find that it takes too much thought sometimes to interject into some people's conversations (and I hate my voice anyway)...

My shoes are prettier, they are combat boots from ROTC, a camp that totally sucked last year. I got to see a kid plumet 37 feet landing on his head on rubber, having a concusion, a chipped spine, a dislocated hip, a broken foot in two places, and a broken leg. ^.^ The rope on 60 foot tall obstacle course was rotted through on the military base.
