About Me

I am an 20-something high school English teacher who loves everything that has to do with King Henry VIII and all the Tudors following him. I love all things Firefly, Serenity, Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Angel, Joss Whedon. He is my deity. =)

I also love Alice in Wonderland, giraffes, hippos, anime, and all things Lolita.

My favorite animes are: Rosario+Vampire, One Piece, and Chobits. (I cannot stand Naruto or Bleach)

In my free time i enjoy dressing in elegant gothic lolita clothing. I tend to gravitate towards the more classic styles but i enjoy wearing non-pink sweets. most of my loli closet are reds, blacks, white and ivories. I hate the giant head-eating bows. they look dumb on me.

I also enjoy spending time with my family and friends in my freetime. i have a wonderful fiance who is silly and wonderful and currently living 5 hours away from me because of school and i miss him all the time. I have loving parents who drive me crazy. two sisters who are crazy. and a hyperactive italian grayhound named loki.

Favorite Music

showtunes (i really love the music from Phantom of the Opera, Rent, and 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee)

Country (Lady Antebellum, Rascal Flatts, Johnny Cash, and Taylor Swift are among my favorites)

Indie/Rock (Garbage, Stone Temple Pilots, Morningwood)

I don't like Lady Gaga. She annoys me

Favorite Books

Anything by Tamora Pierce (She's my all-time favorite author)

Dragonriders of Pern series

Phillippa Gregory books

The Ender series by Orson Scott Card

Harry Potter

Mercedes Lackey books - particularly the Owlknight series

Fahrenheit 451

Lord of the Flies

I don't like the gossip girl books and i despise Stephanie Meyer for making an entire generation think that vampires sparkle and that crap passes as good literature. (no, i will not teach twilight in my classroom instead of the crucible so quit asking me, kids. I'd rather stab myself in the eyeball with a spoon)

Favorite Movies

Center Stage

Boondock Saints

Enchanted

Alice in Wonderland

Avatar

Comment: My boyfriend was SO excited when I told him about the stickers! I'd gotten him the marvel stickers like those, and when I went back to get the star wars ones, they were out. You found the very ones I had tried to get for him! And I really like the cuttings from the postcards. Thank you!
