Hello, my name is Abeille

I figure since my brain-meats are rather fried at the moment due to the accumulation of exhausting school-work, I'd go ahead and be as generic as possible and answer the suggested questions in the original "welcome/introduce yourself" post.


1. What do you do? (Hobbies, job)
I am currently attending school to become a Medical Assistant. Aside from that, I am a telecommunications assistant for the deaf. In my free time I enjoy creating- be it writing, singing, drawing, photography, etc. I'm not entirely sociable, but I do visit my friends as often as possible.

2. Where are you from?
The most disgusting and conservative town in Texas.

3. Who is your favorite author?
Sylvia Plath and Clive Barker.

4. What are your favorite films?
Willard.

5. What music do you want played at your wedding?
I'm not sure I'll ever get married, honestly.

6. At your funeral?
Interpol, Nine Inch Nails, and Rasputina are mandatory.

7. This IS a gothic website, so... how do you want to die?
Drowning.

8. What kind of casket would you want?
Solid white.

9. What's your FAVORITE outfit?
I'm not too ridiculously conscious of clothing merely because I don't own anything too extravagant... but I do own a corset and a handful of skirts I simply adore.

10. What's one thing you miss about being a little kid?
Not having to worry about reality.

11. What's your favorite band?
Interpol [not very gothic, I know.]

12. What kind of education do you have? What is/was/will be your major?
I graduated from high school a semester early and am now finishing up training school to become a MA. I do plan on furthering my education in the future.

13. Why did you join?
I noticed a post about Steampunk/Neo-Victorian fashion and, on a whim, decided I may as well join this site in order to meet new people :]

14. If the first 13 questions didn't give it away. What is your gender?
Haha, female!

You seem neat.
You live in a small town in Texas?
I live in a city and it still... sucks.

:] thank you!
I am starting to think the entirety of Texas is rather horrible. At least, the parts I've visited weren't very charming!

Welcome to Gnet
I've never been the the US but i think texas is the last state i want to visit, probably because of the accent (no offence but i have to concentrate to understand what are people talking)

I don't really know anyone with a Texas accent, lol. Some say ya'll but kinda ends there. A few people I do know with accents have Mexican accents.

That could just be because I'm in SA, though.

Pay no attention to Uni's thread, as you've already seen, people on here have been decent.

They were like that to me in my intro thread. But then it went downhill. They picked on me when I told them about my indulgances.

Howdy thar! I have been to Lubbock (years ago). Quaint little town.

I saw Rasputina in February, awesome cellos, and awesome dresses.
They opened for Siouxsie's Mantaray tour.

Welcome.

Thanks to all for the very kind welcome :]

I mostly stay in my room as often as I can, so I haven't developed too strong of an accent. Fortunately, I know how to use proper English so I think that helps with making me seem less a typical Texan, lol.

Oh, my! I bet seeing them live was quite a treat. Sadly I haven't as of yet been privileged enough to witness a live performance, but it's on a to-do list ^_^

Please just fuck off.

We're fine with people who don't piss us off.


We DO have problems with:

People who beat "dumb cats" because they're 13 and therefore too young to know better.

People who are blind to their faults to the point of stupidity.

People who think that beating a "bitch" who "had it coming" is acceptable.


You understand?

I will have you know that I have a perfect command of the English language. I, however, do not feel it an efficient use of my time to indulge you with my superior verbosity.

Man, you're a fuckface, you know that? I need no dictionary to verbally knock you down to the ground. I can do it on a whim. So please go away goodbye.

Superior to what - a brain-damaged snail? Using a word with four syllables is not eloquence. But then, if you knew that, we wouldn't behaving this conversation - because you could have constructed a better retort than the one that prompted my earlier comment.

Whatever, cuss yourself into a frenzy. I'm bored of talking to you.
