I feel the need to have a little tribute here, to a certain group of people who were present all throughout my childhood and shaped who I am today, but are no longer with us. When I was around 11 or 12, I heard of a little band called Blink 182. They quickly went onto become one of my all time favourites, and led me into liking more punk/pop-punk acts such as Good Charlotte, Mest, MxPx, New Found Glory and the like. It's such a shock to hear that the blink boys will no longer be touring or making music together...such a shame. So This section of my authors page is now reserved to Tom, Mark and Travis. Thank you guys so much for opening my eyes to real music and leading me away from those bastards N SYNC that my friends had driven me to like. Thank you for making music that's actually fun to listen to, about fucking dogs in the ass or aliens. Thank you for performing with midgets at every chance possible. Thank you for saying Canadian girls have the best boobs, I appreciate the compliment 
. And most of all, thank you for being you. You guys rocked.
BLINK 182, I'LL MISS YOU!

MY LIKES: Music, writing, friends, cool quotes, shoes, my hair when it's straight, black eyeliner, Michael Moore, the colour silver, punk/skater guys, Tim Burton, the number 27, the Daily Show with Jon Stewart (fucken hilarious), Donnie Darko, rainbows, getting A's in school, Lost (awesome tv show!), the bonus track from GC's new cd (the very last one, where it's just Benji), the colour pink, Dominic Monaghan, The Breakfast Club, pirates, rainy days, going to the movies, magazines, Jake Gyllenhaal (so gorgeous), horror movies, safety pins and complete and utter randomness.
MY DISLIKES: George Bush (worst president ever! I can't believe those idiots re-elected him!), people who try to push their religious beliefs on you, Hilary Duff, my hair when it's curly, people who don't know the lyrics to songs but sing them anyway, math, science, ditzy pop songs about nothing, being unemployed, my English Lit teacher, people with southern accents (ugh!), Beyonce, wasting paper, fake people, mtv, brown and orange together(looks like puke!), sappy romance movies, Jessica Simpson and arrogant snobby people.
Some of my favourite quotes:
"Oh Lord, what fools these mortals be!" Puck (A Midsummers Night Dream)
"There are people I would take a bullet for and people I would like to put a bullet in." Benji Madden (Good Charlotte)
"T.V has brought murder back into the home where it belongs." Alfred Hitchcock

"If there is anything the nonconformist hates worse than a conformist it's another nonconformist who doesn't conform to the prevailing standards of nonconformity." Bill Vaughan
"I just don't get boybands these days. Everything is choreographed, from the way they dance onstage to the way they have sex with each other after the show." Tom DeLounge (Blink 182)
"Your vision will become clear only when you look into your heart. Who looks outside, dreams. Who looks inside, awakens." Carl Jung

"My psychiatrist thinks I have a preoccupation with vegence. . .yeah, we'll see about that." Stewart Francis
"Screaming is bad for the voice but good for the heart." Conor Oberst

sylve on September 7, 2005I entered your contest I want to go to bed and never wake up and I feel like a d** because I didn't ask how you were, or why you didn't want to wake up or even ask if there was anything I could do to help. I've been through some stuff myself; huffing, alcoholism, cutting, numerous suicide attemps and I'd almost consider myself functional now and even kinda manic happy most of the time. 8) Let me know.
