Isn’t it funny that when you go to the shops with your friends
you look down at the girl with black jeans and studs
but smile at the girl wearing a mini with a t-shirt that barely cover anything???

Isn’t it funny you can change your music taste to impress a guy
but when it comes to a girl who likes her own music and her own style, you give her a mouthful???

Isn’t it funny that a guy can get away with being a gangsta but the emo gets a mouthful from everyone

- Are you laughing???

Isn’t it funny an emo can be quiet all through the week
but gets more shit from everyone than the girl who sleeps around and sells her virginity???

Isn’t it funny that you don’t mind your friends drinking, smoking
but the minute someone mentions emo music you can give them a lecture on melodramatic teenage outcasts???

- I’m not laughing

It’s so funny that you and your friends can make a girls life hell and not know anything about the silent battle she might be fighting.

Isn’t it funny that you can call emos, punks, goths the retards
but still manage to get through your day without an inch of guilt in your heart.

How can you call a girl a poser,
how can you say "you're emo" or "attention seeker"
without spending a second trying to figure out why there are cuts on her wrists
and why she spends her lunchtimes crying instead of laughing with her friends

- Keep on laughing

Isn’t it funny you can say and do all this without any idea of what is going on in this persons life
without knowing her situation with her friends
or her family
or her Life

Brave isn't going up on stage and stripping
Brave is not saying a speech
Or dumping your boyfriend

Brave is...
Going to school every day and not for a second caring what the whores around you are saying about your clothes
Its listening to your own music and being proud of it
Its going through every day with the things people say to your face and behind your back and you still keep quiet
It's being who you are regardless of what the "popular kids" say
Its knowing what your "friends" are saying about you and telling them to fuck off
Brave is knowing that there's a chance tomorrow will get better. But if it doesn't, that's life.
It’s another day of ignoring the bitching and dodging rumours

Piercings and Tattoos
I have Eight piercings. I had 9 but my industrial forced itself out of the bottom hole (seriously: the skin died and it broke open).
I have my right eyebrow done. Two sets in each ear.
My industrial in my left ear and my naval done. My eyebrow is actually my oldest piercing b/c of problems with my ears from an allergy to metal I have. I have my nose pierced now. It grew closed when I went to the hospital, but I redid it with a thumbtack and an earring (never do that).
I have SEVENtattoos
My first one was my triple crescent on my lower back. It stands for the three stages of the goddess (its a Wicca symbol). I got it when I was 19 and my sister, Kyla, paid $100 for it.
My next two, I got the same day. I have "Seize The Day" around my right wrist and "Livin To Die" around my left wrist. They were $60 each
a nautical star in blue and black on my right hip pocket that was $60. All three of my sisters have it as well. Tris's is green. Ky's is purple and Siana's is red. They're all in the same general area as well.
Then I just got music notes on my wrists to close them off $50 for all 4 of them.
I got my carnation with a blood drop in September of 07
Also my children, I am not done yet.
I still want: tongue, a third set in my ears, cartilage and possibly snake bits for piercings
as for tattoos...
* A carnation that is crying blood on my leg
* A bullet and music notes on my shoulder
* A dragon weaving in my crescents on my back
Tis all I have planned for now... as far as I remember.

And now some images

Music And My Life
I haven't always been an amazing music person. For a while, I had the worst taste in music. But it was the 90's and way early 2000's and I was like 12. I'm allowed to feck up. Music became the most important thing in my life about three years ago. I went into another really bad bout with depression and everything that had worked for the last three years, wasn't working anymore. I found new bands (previously, I had been really into English soccer) and music took over my life.
I created Childs Of Sin (Copyright fight with a band on MySpace made it become Childs and we can't get into the front page to change it on the thread anymore) as a joke at first, but with Dusti and Ilse's help, it spiraled into what it's becoming today. It's purpose is to unite fans, mainly of MCR but its not deeply required, to help them help each other. It's a support group based on music because a lot of us have found amazing friends through the music we love and with those two things, we're alive today.

Considering I don't live in a very popular city for tour dates, I've been to a lot of shows, or at least it looks like it. I don't even have all the bands up there because of second stage and opening acts that I've forgotten over time, sadly, plus local bands who's names I can't keep straight, I know Midnight Suit because they're my favourite by far in this area. Fargo, ND is a college city, so we do attract some bands, but not many. Most of the big name shows I've been to (My Chem, Evanescence, one of the Avenged shows, TBS) were in Minneapolis, MN (well technically, only Evanescence was in Minneapolis, the others were in Maplewood, MN) which is about four hours from where I live by car. I went to Canada to see Taste of Chaos in April of 2007, it sounds impressive, but I live 3 1/2 hours from Winnipeg, Manitoba.

Even with that, I've gotten to meet quite a few celebrities. I've met: all of Story of the Year, Synyster Gates, Zacky Vengeance, Johnny Christ from Avenged Sevenfold, all of Revelation Theory, Taylor from The Confession, 30 Seconds to Mars, Saosin, wiL and Nick from AIDEN, all of Lacuna Coil, Matt Good, Derek Bloom and From First To Last's newest member, Atreyu, The Confession and Nick Carter. . I could have met Synyster Gates before I did and Gerard Way, but I'm just a wee bit too effing shy. I also could have met Kill Hannah if I hadn't been in the front of the pit during Papa Roach, M Shadows and the singer for Coheed if I had gone to the restaurant about ten minutes sooner.

I met Revelation Theory and Taylor kind of by dumb luck at their shows. Taylor was by the bathrooms after the Avenged show and I talked with him for a bit with my sister, Ky, he recognized us from the pit because we were in the front row. And Revelation Theory was promoting their stuff afterwards and we got to talk for a while before security wanted to move us out. I met wiL and Nick from AIDEN just by being in the right place at the right time during TOC in 2007 when they were at the merch tables. I got my picture taken with Nick (I met him first) my camera was dead when I met wiL <kicks camera>
Nick Carter, Story of the Year, SAOSIN, Atreyu and 30 Seconds to Mars were signings. I actually left school early and went with a friend all the way to Minneapolis to see Nick Carter. Seriously. I was that stupid. She really wanted to go (that was why I saw them a second time, just for her to see them the first time, she paid for EVERYTHING). Story Of The Year was during Taste of Chaos in '05. It was probably the most rushed meeting I've had with celebs. When I met SAOSIN, I had just found out my ear was bleeding from getting smacked in the pit, so I was kind of freaking out and didn't really talk to them, I did a bit with Justin and Beau, it was rather genetic tho. Shannon (30 Seconds to Mars) and I talked about their Fargo show (which had been the night before) b/c it was their first EVER sold out show and he was saying that he loved the city and that they'll be back and he thought it was really kewl that my sister and I went to Winnipeg to see everyone on TOC rather than just staying in Fargo to see them and Saosin

Syn, Zacky and Johnny were in Fargo, ND when they came here. My sister and I found out before the radio station did that they were coming and when we told them, they said that if they had a meet and greet, we would be on the list. That was the hardest secret I ever had to keep. They were late because the driver was late picking them up from Chili's (Ashley, the rep. tells you everything you wanna know almost). Matt was doing vocal warm ups and Jimmy was sick that day so they didn't show up. I couldn't speak to Syn at first, I was a bit more talkative with Zacky and Johnny and I had a quick conversation, which ended with him laughing and smiling bigger than I have ever seen the boy smile before (that was the only time he laughed too ha ha ha, I feel special, I got him to laugh). My second favourite moment was getting the "Whoa" look from Syn after I told him I wasn't a child after he told us to gather round for a picture. Which...Q98 needs to die for losing. Between my sister and Syn's moving around, I ended up smacked up against him, I got a hug afterwards and Lawn Gnome Johnny left soon afterwards so no hug from him...the bastard.

I've also met: All of Lacuna Coil and From First To Last (sans Travis (and Sonny as this is after his leaving the band)). I have pictures of me with Christina Scabbia and the drummer from Lacuna Coil and than all of the members of FFTL with the two exceptions listed above.
I've met The Confession all properly now (may the band R.I.P) as well
I met the NEW line up of "REV THEORY" and hung out with them on their bus in December of 08. I did a shot of jag with them...that stuff is TERRIBLE

Life Story and Important Things

If you have anything dealing with FOB esp. their bassist, I will get scared and angry. The man gives me nightmares and all things that I can relate to him, I tend to hate b/c of this. I mean no jokes. The guy seriously makes me scared. I won't get into WHY. He just does.

I took about two years off after high school because I was a lazy git. Plus, I was taking the time to figure out my life and get over the upset of my favourite high school teacher refusing to write a letter of recommendation for me to MMU (Manchester Metropolitan University in England) because she didn't believe that I was stable enough to go there, she worried about me too much. But I'm back in school now, at a local technical college to save some money and readjust back to the school life. My first semester I had a 4.0.

I'm very lucky when it comes to schooling because its always been quite easy for me. Plus my school fees are paid for, so if it weren't for cost of living needs, I wouldn't have to take out student loans until AFTER my bachelor's degree, but I need money to live off of so, that isn't happening. I'm going to go to school for cognitive behaviour psychology. I want to work with inner city children and on the side, I want to help educate the country and the world on mental illness.

I graduated from Fargo North High School in 2004. There were about 250 students in my graduating class.

I cut my sister's head open with a coffee cup (I threw it, it shattered, it cut her head open..badly) when I was like 5 or so and i didn't get in trouble, at all. She got staples, and I...got nothing

I've had second degree burns. From coffee. I was 2 roughly, in the front seat of a shopping cart at the grocery store, my eldest sister had 2 fresh cups of coffee, she got hit, fell forward, coffee on my legs. They took my shorts off, and there went skin. Almost no scarring tho. I burned hair folicles so bad that some of them never got repaired over time.

When I was walking to Tris's room in the basement of our house when I was like 10, I tripped over an extension cord and landing with my right hand underneath me and on a Tupperware bin lid, my pinkie was half in the fold of the lid and half, on the rim of it...I thought nothing of it spare the pain. Until my pinkie swelled up twice the size it should be, I couldn't move it or even bend it. I had fractured and dislocated a growth plate in it. When the doctor set it, without giving me anything for pain, I didn't even flinch or scream, which made the doctor very surprised. It took over six months for me to learn how to make a fist again after wearing a splint and taping my finger for about four or five months. Despite that, I type very well...even if I can't play the flute b/c of it locking up from time to time (my pinkie)

Okay, so you stereotype me.
By the way I dress, the type
of music I like, how I do my hair.
And you automatically assume
I'm that "typical emo girl"
I never gave myself a label, yet
you criticize me of being something
I'm not??? You are the one who
gave me this stamp across my forehead.
How can you judge what you
don't even know??? Once you are
in my shoes, see the pain and scars
I hide from everyone... That's the day
I dare you to look me in the eye
and fucking tell me who I am.
