Brushing The Dust Off
I'm going to be honest. I'm lonely, have nothing to do, and just need some sort of outlet. I was going to make a new account (because ew me two years ago= fail) but I follow a lot of comms that would not be fun to readd. Plus, I like my username.
Since I deleted all my old entries, I might as well do a new intro post!
I'm a bit boring, I think. My name's Taylor, which is nothing magical, but at least it isn't terrible. I'm 18 and in just over a week, will start classes at the University Of Western Ontario (UWO). I'm taking Biomedical Sciences (BioMed for short). That means that my first year will be jam-packed full of Chemistry, Biology, Physics, and the dreaded Calculus. My history geek side will get a chance to play though, as I chose a history course about totalitarianism as my elective. Lots of WW2, hopefully.
I am currently living in London with my mom and my brother, Jack. My mom will be going to uni as well, taking an American Studies grad program. My brother....well I'm not his biggest fan. I was hoping he wouldn't be coming (he didn't want to leave our high school because of what happened to me when I switched schools) but no such luck- apparently the high schools here have some of the best music programs in Ontario. Damn him. Luckily, he's an asshole to everyone, so he's usually in his room. We're currently renting a two bedroom apartment, right downtown. This one is about 1200 square feet and I love it. I have to share a room with my mom though. But, we're upgrading to a 1700 square foot 3 bedroom one floor up at the start of October, so it won't be for too long.
I should mention that I'm a girl. I should also mention that I am a complete fangirl. I'm not really a loud one, and no one except for my best friend really knows. I read way too much slash fiction. It's really unhealthy. Recent studies have shown that I can read about 400-450 words per minute. One day, I need to record the word counts of everything I read for one week, just to see. I did that last year, during the school year, and had read something like 160 000 words in one week? It's really sad.
Uh...should probably mention my fandoms. At the moment, I am really loving Inception. Like....I can't even explain how much it has taken over my life. 75% of the fic I've read lately is Inception fanfic, but people post a lot more of it than my other fandoms, mostly, so I guess that's why. Also, Glee and Supernatural. Psych, The Pacific, Band of Brothers, Chuck, Dr Horrible, Generation Kill, Buffy, Firefly, Misfits as well, whenever they pop up. I snag a lot of icons from Skins and am up to date with the news, but I don't read the fic. I think I've officially divorced Torchwood fandom- I can only take so much angst and fix-it fic. There's probably more fandoms that I search for when I feel like it, but don't add and follow.
That last bit leads me to another paragraph! Concerning icons. I'll admit, I'm a terrible person. I see an icon I like, I right-click and save it. I use them as my msn display pics, or just to look at. Looking at my stats right now, I have....2184 icons. Insanity. It's a decent-sized collection, but...I never saved who made them. So, the icons I'm using were made by talented icon makers....I just didn't write down who. I'm half heartedly going through comms, looking at the icon posts, but my best bet to give credit is for someone to recognize their work and notify me. Let's hope.
I have dark red hair. Just did it yesterday, from a box. I usually get it done by our awesome stylist, but we're no longer there! I was worried. It looks pretty good. I need to stop biting my lips and nails/fingers. I should probably hit the exercise room more, but other people seeing me work out makes me feel awkward. I also have eyes, that are blue. I am also white. Really really ridiculous white. I go outside with shorts on, and my legs will blind you.
I really think I've rambled enough. Though now...I actually feel better!
