Let me open up by saying that just because I can talk openly about personality, my life and traits that it doesn’t mean I’m an egotistical, arrogant, up-her-own-arse bitch that thinks the world revolves her. I just know exactly who I am and have nothing to hide, nor be ashamed of.

While I may come across as confident, I’m quite the opposite. You see, on the Internet you can be whoever you want to be, do whatever makes you happy and ironically, blogging provides me with a feeling of accomplishment and satisfaction. So I’ve been blogging for a couple years now and it’s been a self discovery of who I really am because I’ve learned a lot about myself, my opinions and outlook on life. I’m also one of those types who always has something to say.

I can raise my hand in the air and admit I’m an idiot at times, coming out with statements and questions that will literally make you faceplant. I’m known for being a bit of a hypocrite, a terrible quality to have, one that I hate a lot and am working on amending. I also have an inability to sugar-coat information so if your in the wrong about something, trust me, I’ll be the first person to tell you. My slogan is: “It’s not bitching if it’s the truth..”.

I’m a geek, a proud one as well. I get excited over technology, electronics and new gadgets, always striving to have the toys that others dream of having. I am however extremely picky when it comes to gadgets but was delighted when I got my pink 0T-800 Alcatel mobile. When I’m not lurking on the Internet, I can either be seen clinging my controller trying to kill zombies or singing into a microphone on my Xbox 360. Gaming is my pride and joy, my dream is to be a games journalist, ideally for Microsoft.

My fashion and style is regularly up for discussion in the ‘goth vs emo‘ debate. I don’t understand why society insists on putting a label on individuality and why you have to be branded into a catagory. I, my friends, am not a goth, nor an emo. I wear whatever clothes I want, I style the hair the way I want and I do my own makeup, all based on my own creativity and thought. I don’t let anyone influence me so please, let’s stop the judgemental chit-chat.
