  • Burned out light bulbs and blown fuses
  • Losing receipts
  • Having to be punctual
  • Being somewhere crowded
  • Social settings like malls, bars, parties, and holidays
  • Slow computers and internet connections
  • The idea of people “dating” online – Its really childish and ridiculous to think you “know” somebody just because you chat to them online. Then these people go and get “married” and wonder why they end up hating each other….Gee, ???
  • When friends are too “busy” to call for 5 minutes to say “Hi, I’m still alive and everything is okay here, I’ve just been crazy busy. Well, I’ve got to go but I’ll call you once things settle down.” How hard is that?? Instead, Everybody is so “busy” that nobody talks for months….I hate that.
    I also hate being the only one to make an effort to “check in” with friends…
  • Pregnancy. I find it extremely gross, weird, and unnatural.
  • Overly religious people
  • People who are intolerant of other religions
  • People who are homophobic
  • Child abusers
  • Bras that don’t fit right
  • Receiving religious forwards from those who know VERY well that I do not share those beliefs
  • Sharks, SEVERELY.
  • Cat litter
  • Hip Hop and little “gangsters”
  • Frizzy hair
  • Sunlight
  • The SOUTH.
  • Talking on a cellphone when I’m trying to eat

    Seafood
    Veggies
    Fruit
    Pasta
    Breads
    Eggplant
    Squash
    Avocados
    Pomograntes

Pretty much anything healthy that doesn’t have too much sugar.

I hate Milk (any kind, even choc.) and Milk products. I can’t even stomach Soy Milk because it tastes too much like regular milk.

I don’t really like many meats but I do like Deer, Beef Jerky, sausage, and Ham. I like chicken only if I’m the one to cook it and it can’t have skin or fat.

Other Random Things about me:

  • I would love to live in the realm of the Faeries!
  • I have the weirdest and coolest boyfriend! Master Jeremy – Your awesome! Thanks for making life interesting!
  • I hate Bush.
  • I support gay marriage.
  • I love to read – ALOT. I rarely watch TV but still have shows I watch once every month or so when its available (I don’t have cable or satillete or anything due to lack of money and interest).
  • I usually perfer sour,spicy,or bitter as opposed to sweet sugary stuff.
  • I’m part puerto rican, German,and Italian, and a few others.
  • I want to marry Vincent Price – And YES! I do know he is dead! ; )
  • Wishes she could “convert” to an amish ordnong without having to be religious
  • Wishes Gene Simmons or Arnold Schwarzenegger would become president
  • Supports Pro-Choice even though she would never have an abortion herself.
  • Wishes men were able to have children so she wouldn’t have too.
  • Supports making it legal to grow Marijuana. Though she is not fond of smoking it. It’s a renewable resource that needs to be utilized regardless of the fact that the plant is also a “drug”. We can grow Belladonna and even use it as a homeopathic remedy for health conditions though it is a deadly poison. So why the hell not Marijuana.
  • Loves to retreat inside her head
  • Has aggression problems and sometimes thinks she might be manically depressed or a schizophrenic
  • Wishes the economy would hit a severe depression already….
  • Smokes way to much
  • Wishes she could drink way to much, way to often

  • Is a very paranoid person
