take these broken wings and learn to fly
I've just made the majority of my journal, other than fic, friends only so I figured I'd make a post about me. But... I don't like being preached at, and I figured people wouldn't like that, either, so I'm just putting down a bunch of random facts about me. They're not very important and most of them are rather basic, but I figured, why not? :P So here we go! Facts about me to keep in consideration when friending me. :)
Stuff that used to be in my profile, but no longer is:
my name is elizabeth, but i'd really prefer if you called me liz or lizzie or something like that because people only really call me elizabeth when they're mad at me, and that's no fun. i'm a seventeen year young girl from ny. i'm an only child but i don't crave attention and i'm not spoiled. i'm very social and i like to be around people. a lot. i'm very outgoing, hyper, sometimes loud, occasionally obnoxious :[ (keyword occasionally!) i lovelovelove reading and writing and watching/making movies. i love school. i'm an ENFP. and i think i've changed a lot from the person i used to be. :)

I love fruit.
I'm allergic to shellfish.
My first crush was a boy named Nicholas who had a twin named Anthony. This was in kindegarten.
I'm technology-illiterate
I used to make movies using my Barbie's. I even made a tv show called Girlfriends. It was very dramatic. The character's names were Daniella, Chelsea, Skye, and ...someone else. It was kind of a rip-off of every teen drama on tv, except with plastic shoes.
I have no hand-eye coordination.
I think I'm a lot like Bella from Twilight.
I like using proper grammar, but sometimes I type in all lowercase to make a point.
I use ":P," "XD," and "lol" a lot while typing.
When something is funny, believe me, you'll know.

My first HP ship was Harry/Hermione.
I hate science and math with a passion; I don't mind trig, though.
The first story I ever wrote was about a cat who had 20 kittens a year. I clearly didn't understand sexual reproduction.
My second story was about a fox.
Adults usually think I'm mature for my age. My friends know I'm about as mature as a 6 year old.
I love animals, especially rabbits, cats, and dogs.
When I was little, I wanted to be an actress, but I had stage fright and I was really really shy.
The first Hp fic I ever wrote was intended to be a Harry/Hermione fic, but then turned into Ron/Hermione Harry/Ginny, and then turned into Draco/Ginny. I'm still not sure how it happened.
The first fic I ever read was "I Didn't Know You Cared," a 100+ chaptered Dramione fic. It was really horrible. I loved it.
I live in New York.
I hate reading books for school, and usually hate them just because I'm forced to read them. Once I'm done, I'll usually love them.
I never liked the Backstreet Boys, *Nsync, or the Spice Girls. Sometimes I feel like I missed out on a prime era because I never really gave them a chance.
I've never had a real boyfriend.
I believe in fate, love at first sight, and reincarnation.
I have many fears. Most importantly, though, I'm scared of heights, blood, insects, and of dying.

It takes me a little bit longer to get jokes than most people :P

I've seen McFLY, Bob Dylan, and Plain White T's live.
I used to have a lisp.
I love fashion.
I'm scared of my head being crushed :\
