I thought it was a bird but it was just a paper bag
I was stamped as Black Lady a couple years ago and I want to see if you think I've changed?
Name/Nick: Lily. My sister calls me Lily-Lo, and some people call me Lilikoi, which means "passionfruit" in Hawaiian. *shrugs* I'm not Hawaiian...but there you go.
Age: Almost twenty! o_O I don't feel like I should be that old...
Birthday: 22 September (1987, if it matters ^-^)
Location: California, pretty close to San Francisco
Favorite color: Green and black (somedays one is my very favorite, some days the other), red, silver, dark blue, white
Favorite animal: Cats ^-^ As well as bats, snakes and most birds
Favorite SM character: My favorite villains are the Shitennou (specifially Kunzite and Zoisite but I like them all), and Ail and An. Senshi I especially like are Mars, Mercury, and Neptune -beautiful, intelligent and strong. And I guess Usagi as well, because I have many friends who are a bit like her.
Least favorite SM character: I'm one of those people who just is not crazy about Mamoru or Chibi-Usa. And while Queen Beryl-sama is beautiful...she did not make life easy on my beloved Shitennou. I think Jupiter is probably my least favorite senshi, though I don't necessarily dislike her...I just found it hard to identify with someone so rough-and-tumble at times.
Five Adjectives to Describe Yourself: Elegant, witty, moody, talented, self-contradicting
Hobbies: Dancing (bellydance, ballet, and modern), running, singing, playing the piano and violin, reading (absolutely anything!), exploring the big cities around me, drinking coffee, modelling, visiting friends
Likes: All of my hobbies! I am most passionate about friends and dance, but I am also very into music (almost all kinds, but especially Gothic, J-rock and classical) and visual arts (though I don't think I can draw). Generally I like attending classes at my college, though I'm not a big fan of the workload. Gothic, steampunk and avant-garde fashion, pointe shoes, Victorian novels, taking trips, sympathetic people, intelligent people, science, history, French, the kind of days where you seem to be doing everything right.
Dislikes: Being ill, drinking too much (because it makes you ill), people who can't or won't think for themselves, that "Lipgloss" song, cold weather, heavy foods, panic attacks, not having enough sleep
Strong points: I am a gifted dancer, singer and student (of some things anyway: languages, mostly) and where talent isn't enough, I have ambition and determination to back me up: I finally danced en pointe for the first time at age nineteen and have made up for a lifetime of messing around in school with a 3.8 GPA at college. I consider myself to be an incredibly good friend once I've decided to warm to someone -I will be your friend for life unless you hurt me, and even if I *dislike* someone, I'll listen to their problems if they're genuinely important (even if I'm secretly thinking about the weather or something) because everyone deserves someone to listen to them about the big things...otherwise we would all explode! I go after what I want and I get it, even if it takes a long time for me to do that. And when I'm feeling social I can be very witty and charming. If I am in love with someone I will adore them and let them know it.
Weak points: Despite recognizing my talents, etc. I have disastrously low self-esteem. I tend to seek validation from others (my five adjectives have all been applied by other people) because it feels presumptious to apply words that are too highly-praising too myself. I tend to be withdrawn, and become either very angry or very depressed at the drop of a hat -I overreact to little things, and will decide I want the house full of friends and invite them all over, only to feel very depressed and want to get away from everyone once they're there. I feel like I always have to prove myself to someone or something, and the way people that I am in relationships with view me is intensely important. I've battled an eating disorder for a few years, and am triggered way too easily: I can be at a healthy, but still underweight, body mass index (and hate it) for about a month before backsliding, and then hate for THAT because I feel like I'm letting everyone down whether I do or don't eat anything. I'm anxious and prone to panic attacks. Sometimes I think I rely too much on the opinions of my loved ones, and I think I want people to take care of me a little too much. On the other hand, I worry that my desire to be close to my loved ones might get in the way of my ambitions.
...and also I can be a little too flippant or callous, and sometimes ignore people's feelings even if it's unintentional. I rush headlong into things, often realizing the consequences or that I'm doing things "the hard way" when I'm right in the middle of a jam.
...oh, and I am absolutely horrible at math :p Numbers aren't so good for me.
Quote(s): "Whosoever desires constant success must change with the times" -Niccolo Macchiavelli (one of my heroes)
And the WHOLE ENTIRE POEM "Love in the Asylum" by Dylan Thomas. My favorite line is about "a girl as mad as birds"
(I plan to get this poem tattooed on my back)
"We hold each other tightly before I return to the sky" -from a translation of Le Ciel by Malice Mizer. So sad, but so pretty.
...and if you heard anything directly quoted from me that MOST people tend to remember, you'd think I am some kind of hyper social butterfly pervert...which isn't true! It just comes up and then...is memorable?
Goal?: To open my own dance company and actually make money on it.
Oh, and pictures!!
