I HATE ALCOHLICS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I am writing a series of stories based on the fantasies of myself called Fade to Black...

"The fires of jealousy burn hotter than any of the other fires or passions of the heart or soul."-Me

"I attempt to sweep the weak off thier feet, to mend thier souls and set them free... they are my children, and for every one that hurts me, a single tear I weep." ~ Me.

"No amount of money, violence, or good intention can make the world a better place. For true change to happen, the hearts of each and every human being must evolve. Respect and understanding must replace greed and egotism as the fundamentals by which we live. To create positive change, we must change ourselves." - Antibalas (a band)

""You know the saddest thing?" she said.
"The saddest thing is that we're you."
I said nothing.
"In your fantasies," she said,
"my people are just like you, only better. We don't die,
or age, or suffer from pain or cold or thirst.
We're snappier dressers. We possess
the wisdom of ages. And if we crave blood,
well, it is no more than the way you people crave food,
or affection, or sunlight -- and besides,
it gets us out of the house, crypt, coffin. Whatever."
"And the truth is?" I asked her...
"We're you," she said.
"We're you, with all your fuck-ups
and all the things that make you human --
all your fears and loneliness and confusion...
none of that gets better.
"It's like getting famous, or getting rich.
You're the same person you were
when you were unknown or poor.
Only worse. All the bad things are magnified,
and you don't remember where the good things are
anymore. "It's all that. But it's more.
We're colder than you are. Deader.
I miss daylight and food and knowing
how it feels to touch someone and care.
I remember life, and meeting people
as people and not just as things to feed on
or control, and I remember what it was
to feel something, anything, happy or sad or anything..."
Then she stopped, and lowered her head.
"Are you crying?" I asked.
"We don't cry," she told me.
Like I said, the woman was a liar   "
-From Fifteen Painted Cards From A Vampire Tarot by Neil Gaiman

However far away, I will always love you
However long I stay, I will always love you
Whatever words I say, I will always love you
I will always love you - 311 - Love Song

Say what you need to save your soul
But leave your religion at the door
We're smoking all of Krishna's weed
I'm sick of these weak anarchies
You see me as a place to make a bruise
Bbut in my reality I'm the slate of the muse
F*k those hypocrites - together we'll fight
The tyranny of squares - SQUIGGLES UNITE!
The Lord is my weapon and I see him shoot pawns,
Woman is the devil,
GOD IS A FRAUD,
Everyone you knew and everything you've ever done,
Suffer for your freedom
Die by the Law
-OTEP "The Lord is my Weapon"

The flapping of a single butterfly's wing today produces a tiny change in the state of the atmosphere. Over a period of time, what the atmosphere actually does diverges from what it would have done. So, in a month's time, a tornado that would have devastated the Indonesian coast doesn't happen. Or maybe one that wasn't going to happen, does. (Ian Stewart, Does God Play Dice? The Mathematics of Chaos, pg. 141)

"Old truths and ancient magic, revolution and invention, all conspire to distract us from the passion that in one way or another defeats us all." -Lestat

"Don't you see?' I said softly. 'It is a new age. It requires a new evil. And I am that new evil. I am the vampire for these times" -Lestat

"Very few beings really seek knowledge in this world... On the contrary, they try to wring from the unknown the answers they have already shaped in their own minds - justifications, confirmations, forms of consolation without which they can't go on. To really ask is to open the door to a whirlwind. The answer may annihilate the question and the questioner." - From Ann Rice's Book "The Vampire Lestat". I belive this is Armond speaking to Louis.

"Our doubts are traitors and make us lose the good we oft might win by fearing to attempt." -William Shakespeare

"If I can stop one heart from breaking, I shall not live in vain." -Emily Dickinson

"Poetry is what gets lost in translation." -Robert Frost

"Perfect love is rare indeed - for to be a lover will require that you continually have the subtlety of the very wise, the flexibility of the child, the sensitivity of the artist, the understanding of the philosopher, the acceptance of the saint, the tolerance of the scholar and the fortitude of the certain." -Leo Buscaglia

"A relationship is like a rose, How long it lasts, no one knows; Love can erase an awful past, Love can be yours, you'll see at last; To feel that love, it makes you sigh, To have it leave, you'd rather die; You hope you've found that special rose, 'Cause you love and care for the one you chose." -Rob Cella

"Although my mind is open, my heart is tightly closed. With all the hate that holds me, I wish I didn't own. For all the years that pass by, I know I should have changed. How can one man sever, the links that make these chains. And then I see...what my life should be. Im here dying for another chance to make this right. With the guilt I feel I try to piece together my life" - Scars of Life

"If three words could heal you, I'd only speak two" - From Autumn to Ashes

"After all these images of pain, have cut right through you, I will kiss every scar, and weep you are not alone, then I'll show you that place, in my chest where my heart, still tries to beat, it still tried to beat! Aren't you tired of being weak? such race rage that you could scream, all the stars right out of the sky. And destroy the prettiest starry night, every evening that I die" - Atreyu

Just your typical psychopathic 18 year old... Brown hair (soon to be black or blue... or green) and green or brown eyes (depends on my mood). 6'1" tall, 150 lbs. I got my eyebrow pierced and sooner or later gonna get my lip and my tongue done too. As for tattoos, well, theyre gonna have to wait for me to have money. I am in love with a beautiful girl thats on this site... you should check out her stuff...(vampirepixie) it's mighty amazing. but yeah, thats all I got to say about that... hope y'all enjoy my stuff!

Music is my life! I am all about some heavy metal, if its got mostly screaming in it, i'll probably like it. I also love techno, ICP and all the juggalo crew, and Oldies rock... I also like wierd stuff, like HIM, Placebo, things of that nature, and I'm also a hardcore AFI fan (Despair Faction for life!) anything that deals with rap (other then outkast) and anything that deal with this new pop-punk crap... i HATE. oh i forgot to mention my favorite band in the whole wide world is Mindless Self Indulgence.

Books.. well im into the fantasy genre, medieval setting, magic, dragons, things of that nature (tolkien, Robert Jordan), I'm also a big fan of Ayn Rand (atlas shrug, anthem) her books absolutely rock.. if you like society poems, pick up some of her book... egoism is amazing! Im also a big fan of old skool stuff, shakespeare (i always think ive spelt it wrong.. probably have) and Edgar allen poe are my particular faves, but there are tons of others.

Movies.. BIG movie fan... so far my faves are- anything w/ johnny depp in it (amazing actor), gladiator, the first matrix, and any movie directed by tim burton (Nightmare before Christmas rocks!). many many others, but most of them are covered by the first thing i mentioned :-D not really many comedies i enjoy, unless its chris farley (RIP)... but yeah...

Definately a raver. I work at Rocky Horror Picture Show, and love it. Piercings, tattoos, and crazy dyed hair are the greatest things ever. Vampires, Dragons, Wolves/Dogs and Tigers are my favorite creatures.
Dunno what else to say, just kinda rambling at this point but yeah... contact info!
