List 3 words to describe yourself:
1. Quirky.
2. Funny.
3. Bubbly.
List 3 interesting/random things about you:
1. I dye my hair every few months. I've pretty much been every natural colour under the sun; blonde, brunette, black, as well as red, orange, purple and pink (and I had a big teal streak for a few years).
2. I have a tattoo of a star on my left wrist that I've had for a few years now, and incidentally got before I was nicknamed Star (which was based on my username).
3. I'm a fanfiction writer, and I'm not ashamed to admit it. I know there are so many people who think it's lame beyond words - I enjoy that I can share my ideas about fandoms I loved with others who enjoy them as much as I do. And I love writing, so combining the two is just a plus.
List 3 things you look for in a friend:
1. People who will actually read my journal and take an interest in what I have to say. I dislike people who just expect you to comment and read their journals, and don't return the favour. I want to make friends so I can connect with them - and it's a two-way street.
2. That they have a good sense of humour. I enjoy funny things, therefore I aim for my journal to be filled with them. Obviously I would enjoy friends who will laugh at them with me.
3. Open-minded people who won't force their opinion down my throat about anything. I understand that my ideals may clash with others; that is what a healthy discussion is for, and the chance you could alter someone's perception on a certain subject. I won't tolerate anything like 'this is what I think so you have to think that way too'. I like being capable of independent thought. Also, any kind of discrimination is a definite no-no, whether it be about gender, race, sexuality, financial status - anything. Everyone deserves to be treated equally in my eyes, and if you don't like that, then oh well.

Why do you think people would enjoy reading and commenting on your posts? I'd like to think that I'm an interesting person and therefore would have interesting things to say. My like is relatively boring but I make up for it by having quite an extensive imagination. And I like to fill my life with humour, and share it with others; even if it's just my cat doing something peculiar. I like sharing my thoughts and opinions, and love getting feedback from others even if it's disagreeing.
Tell us about your life and what you want to do with it: My childhood/teenage years were hell; not only did I have the sudden hormones that make us all insane at that age but I was also turned away by my family, became a Ward of the state and entered an abusive foster home, which I left a few weeks after I turned eighteen. My life right now is quite dull, with no job and little financial status, but I have some amazing friends who make it interesting and a unique way of looking at things. Eventually I'd love to be physically healthy again and get myself some kind of awesome job where I can nerd out (video-game or music store preferable), and then get married and raise an awesome family; give my kids the love and support I barely received myself.
If you could swap lives with a person for a week, who would it be and why? Masashi Kishimoto, just so I could know what his plans were for Naruto in the future because lately it's becoming harder and harder to figure out. I don't care about the spoilers, I just want to know. Oh, and I'd make my favourite pairings actually happen, abuse of power and all that jazz.
Make up your own question and answer it: 'Why do you talk so much?'
I know I have a severe case of verbal diarrhoea but the whole reason I'm making this post is so people will be intrigued to add me, and I'm not going to skirt my way around things and lie through my teeth. I'm honest, and I have a lot to say. I'm open, and I want to share my experiences with others in hope that perhaps they may take something away from it.
Although I realized I've pretty much written a bloody biography and if you've made it all the way through this post to this sentence, I sincerely apologise for my ramblings.

How did you find this community and why did you decide to join I've been on livejournal for years, made friends here and there but I've consistently come and gone on the site; most of the friends I have on my journal are no longer active. I posted here once about four years ago, but I think it's time for a fresh start and some kick-ass awesome new friends.
