Hi! I'm Jessica.


1. What do you do? (Hobbies, job)
I'm currently unemployed. My hobbies include but, are not limited to: writing, reading, jamming to music, partying, & learning as much about Psychology as I can.

2. Where are you from?
I was born in Fort Polk, Louisiana & currently reside in West Virginia.

3. Who is your favorite author?
Hmmm...at the moment, I'm a fan of Jodi Picoult & I'm ALWAYS a fan of Laurell K. Hamilton.

4. What are your favorite films?
I have to say that, without a doubt, my favorite movie is The Crow. Then there is Interview with a Vampire, Donnie Darko, The Virgin Suicides, Thirteen, Life as a House...the list goes on.

5. What music do you want played at your wedding?
Anything that I can dance to WHICH is pretty much anything.

6. At your funeral?
Nothing sad. Fuck sad music for those unfortunate occasions. I want something upbeat.

7. This IS a gothic website, so... how do you want to die?
In a hail of gunfire.

8. What kind of casket would you want?
Well, I'll be dead so, I'm sure I won't care.

9. What's your FAVORITE outfit?
Anything that's comfortable & bright! I enjoy wearing the kind of clothes that are so unnecessarily neon & bright that they burn the retnas if you stare too long. haha

10. What's one thing you miss about being a little kid?
The innocence. & not having any responsiblities.

11. What's your favorite band?
Hmmm...I know I'm going to get made fun of for saying this but, My Chemical Romance. Bite me. lol

12. What kind of education do you have? What is/was/will be your major?
So far, I only have my High School Diploma but, that'll soon change. At the moment, I'm thinking my major will be in Psychology.

13. Why did you join?
To have a place where I can post random threads & not be seen as a freak or weirdo for my opinions or views.

14. If the first 13 questions didn't give it away. What is your gender?
100% female.


A few things about me not covered by any of the questions:
1. I have a bad habit of correcting grammar & spelling.
2. I have a very irrational & unexplainable love of penguins.
3. I'm a germophobe to the one-thousandth power.
4. I have many fears, most of which make no sense seeing as I've never really had any traumatic experiences that would result in said fears.
5. I over-analyze EVERYTHING.
6. I'm sarcastic as FUCK! You'll learn to love it.
7. I have no filter between my brain & my mouth.
8. I tend to contradict myself.
& finally...9. If you've continued reading up until this point & haven't gotten completely disgusted or annoyed, chances are we'll be great friends.

Regular goth stuff? I didn't realize that there were certain "goth" things that I have to like. Kind of weird. Not trying to be rude or disrespectul at all...I just do my own thing; I like what I like.

You don't have to like anything, but goths generally listen to goth music.

That's ok, I wouldn't want to force anyone to like something.
It's ok if you want like what you like, that's how this whole scene got started.

Welcome to g-net Jessica. While I can't say I get why you like MCR, but to each his or her own. As for Goth music, if you don't know them already, I would reccommend Cinema Strange and Switchblade Symphony.

Hope you enjoy your stay!

Well...Welcome. Many of us are perpetually cranky. It's fairly easy to ignore, just don't poke them or dangle food in front of their face.
A few things made me cringe, but I'm not in the habit of attacking people I don't know.
I am rather curious of why you listed Hell as your location.
Just to make me a wee bit happier, how old are you?

Why? Because I'm not mean? I wasn't criticizing anyone else, and I'm sorry that it came out that way. I happen to very much enjoy the people who frequent this forum and think I've found my niche. So I'll stay.

Admit it, you're just made because I called you cranky.
...since it won't let me, pretend that there's a smiley face here, please.

Wait, I know the answer to this one.

You are.

Whether you are, or just perceived to be that way, is another story.

JCC is perpetually snappish/standoffish, but I'm not certain how much of it is serious. UO, you come off as confrontational a bit, but I know that's because you call things exactly how you see it, and I've even come to appreciate it.

There's just a lot of thornyness around here.
