cute is what we aim for

[/b][/color][/font][/size]
everyone’s a let down it just deepens
on how far down they can go in every
circle of friends there’s a whore the one
who flirts and talks a little more but who’s
to say this is a social scene anyway

oo5. marlboro lights. what? shut up.
oo6. cuddles. they make me fuzzy inside.

oo8. being on tour. it's the greatest adventure ever, and lord knows i love adventures.
oo9. surprises. nice ones obviously, unexpected bills aren't exactly my idea of a decent time...
o10. alcohol. seriously, anything i don't mind, i'll drink it.
o11. sunny days. because they always put me in a good mood.
o12. stand up comedy. because i love to laugh.
o13. stripy things. i don't know what it is, but i love stripes.
o14. making up new words. i do it all the time, not necessarily on purpose.
o15. tech stuff. well it's part of my job, and i'm a complete geek at heart... i'm apparently good at it..
o16. music. well. duh. ya know? i'm on a music tour it's only natural.
o17. my bass... what would i do without it?
o18. youtube. don't ask me why, i'm damn near addicted to youtube.
o19. my nintendo ds. the hours and hours of my life that have been wasted away on this thing are shocking.
o20. my piano. i play piano too - and i like it as much as i do bass...
o21. long phonecalls. especially with people who make me laugh or those i haven't spoken to in a long time...
o22. amusing text tones. i tend to record stuff off tv shows. mine changes every other day.
o23. airports. i don't know, but if i have to fly somewhere i get to the airport MEGA early.
o24. dancing. when drunk or sober... i dance, not well, but i dance.
o25. glowsticks. because they are the best invention ever.[/ul]
dislikes:

[/b] being away from my family for too long... i miss them like crazy.
oo2. being paraletic. i'm something of a control freak with my body. i need to know what i'm doing.
oo3. sluttiness. seriously its just... ew.
oo4. too much make-up. it looks so artificial... it's very rarely done well. panda eyes are a no-no
oo5. groupies. well most of them. because they don't like me... i'm too prim and proper apparently.
oo6. my accent. everyone else loves it but i think it makes me sound really common and a bit overwhelming.
oo7. being underestimated. i mean, come on i know i'm only a techie but i'm not an idiot - i know how to do my job even though i'm only seventeen.
oo8. being ripped off. it's happened in the past, where people have just become like, friends with me because they want to learn how i do things, or get certain effects on bass or whatever. if you want to know, ask and i might tell you. don't just steal it.
oo9. meaningless sex, words and relationships. i've never had a boyfriend but the thought of a one night stand or anything like that just makes me a bit angry and makes me feel a bit sick. it's just... nah.
o10. american drinking laws. it's only eighteen in britain, here it's twenty one... not cool.
o11. being betrayed. if i trust someone, it means they've earned it - if they fuck it up seriously they're in soooo much trouble.
o12. racism. my biggest hate of all to the point i campaign against it - i can't stand the narrow-minded nature of these cretins. it gets me so angry...
o13. bullying. this is another thing i simply cannot stand. having been bullied for the first few years of high school i know how it feels, and know that it should be stopped. now.
o14. losing touch with people. having moved from the uk not too long ago i am so scared that i am going to end up losing all the amazing friends i've made there. i'd hate that.
o15. narrow minded people. i love all kinda of people, music no matter their style or background and i can't stand it when a person judges someone or something else of first sight or puts them straight with a stereotype without getting to know them. life's too short for that kinda crap.[/ul]
strengths:

[/b] my bass playing. well i'd like to think it's a strength in any case!
oo2. my friendliness... because you can never be too friendly right?
oo3. my intelligence. it was a toss up between this and going to university. i'm glad i chose this, but the point is i have a decent brain in this crazy head of mine.[/ul]
weaknesses:

[/b] my shyness. i am really very shy. the other four are very much in your face, you always know when they're around - whereas i am very much the shy one who just blends in.
oo2. my niavety. i really try and see the good in everything - sometimes ignoring the fact that people are just plan bastards. it fucks me over a lot. i get walked all over by various people.
oo3. my sensitivity. i take things very much to heart. even when i know i shouldn't it's horrible, i know, but it's just one of those things...[/ul]
fears:

[/b] the drug culture of this tour frightens me to oblivion. i swear... one of my best friends from manchester became addicted to heroin and seeing him like that has sworn me off anything ever... it's just. no. i hate them, and they frighten me, people on drugs frighten me sometimes.
oo2. needles. shots more than anything - i can deal with tattoo needles, but injections oh my god no. i skipped school every single time there was a shot - because i couldn't face them. it's one of those phobias that will never go away.
oo3. losing my parents. my mum was once in quite a serious car accident - so serious we could have lost her and that really made me re-think my relationship with my parents. it made me realise how lost i would be without them. i couldn't bare to lose either of them.
oo4. wrists. okay this is weird and most definitely irrational - but there's a story behind it. basically when i was like fourteen i had a friend in high school who was going through the stereotypical goth phase - i think quite a few people have them but her thing was to steal my pencil sharpeners in biology right, and cut her wrists. right there in front of me. it was never deep but since then, if anyone grabs my wrist, shows me their wrists and lord forbid if i see a vein i freak the fuck out.[/ul]

personality:

[/b]
‘yeah i’m painfully shy to the fact it hinders a lot of things in my life. it stems from my lack of self esteem in that i just get shy. now i’m on a tour with a bunch of rockstars this has only made it worse. luckily a lot of them are larger than life characters and strike up conversations with anyone so i’m not completely alone on this tour because once you do get speaking to me you’ll find i open up rather a lot. it’s just the intial meeting process that i simply cannot fathom and i don’t really know why. i sort of clam up and don’t know what to do… i hate it too, because i need to overcome this if i want any kind of chance of making it big in the music industry. i think this tour is definitely a stepping stone for me to come out of my shell a little bit. i hope so anyway… this why i'll never be a frontwoman. i just don't know how to do it!’

Fun
‘once you do get me out of my shell you’ll realise that i want nothing more than to make people smile and laugh even if it’s at the expense of my own dignity or so call reputation. i don’t mind making a fool out of myself, as long as it makes other people happy. it might be seen as pretty cool to be straight edge and that, but i certainly am not, and i will party like it’s nineteen ninety nine. well I won’t because that would have made me eleven years old, but you get the drift. basically i like to enjoy myself be in on guitar hero, singstar, any other video game or simply larking about while drunk, or even when sober. this has gotten to the point where i am seen as something of the tour joker, but i just think the entire thing is absolutely hilarious. i can be serious when i need to be, but if i get away with it, i'll goof around.’

Loyal
‘should you be my friend then i am your friend for life. i will not stray even in the most testing of situations. if anyone has a problem with you, they go through me first and i will stick with you til the absolute bitter end without question. that’s what friends are for right? same goes for lovers – when i eventually decide i want to be with someone, and vice versa, then i intend on it being for life, or at least for a very very long time. i don’t like casual flings, the same way i don’t like casual friendships. forever or never, ya dig? even if you are in the wrong, i will defend you as if my life depends on it... ’

Holds Grudges
‘with that said, should you decide that you’re going to do your shit behind my back and betray that trust and friendship then you are seriously making one of the heftiest mistakes you could ever ask for because i will not forget and when the time comes i will remember how much of a prick you actually were. the chances are i won’t forgive you for what you’ve done and if it was really bad you will be damn lucky if i ever even look at you again. i don’t forgive easily, and i never ever forget. you tend to only get one chance with me, if you blow it then it’s bye bye morrigan. i can fight, and if the situation calls for it, i will... my temper doesn't flare very easily, but betrayal as well as racist or bullying behaviour are the number one things that are guaran-damn-teed to test me to my limits...’

Naïve
‘while i’m mature I am a little bit on the naïve side. i tend to see the good in everything rather than the reality – and i give everyone a chance. even those that simply don’t deserve it. it is i’m afraid to say a little too easy to take advantage of me… i try to make sure it doesn’t happen but i end up getting used for my generosity, or my musical talents. either way it’s not the greatest of things that I have going for me. i'd love to try and keep this innocent view of the world, but the more i see of it the more it fades... i'm learning fast now that i'm in the band - like i said i'm sort of the mummy of the group, but sometimes i have difficulty comprehending that someone's actually a bastard.’

Sweetheart
‘i am a big softie. i’m pretty sweet and i like making others happy with surprises, favours or whatever. i’m the one who always organises birthday parties for people who forget mine and all kinds of things. i’m a little bit of a hopeless romantic, hoping that one day someone will sweep me off my feet and whisk me away and we’ll live happily ever after. i know it isn’t going to happen ever, but it’s nice to be able to dream a little isn’t it…? this is something that's just been one of my big traits since i was little - my parents are always telling people all the dorky things i did as a kid, like sending the teachers birthday cards and forever asking to bake my friends birthday cakes. any excuse for a party i say, but even when someone's feeling down, i'll do my best to cheer them up. i'll do anything for my friends... i don't expect the same back, but i know how nice it is to feel valued.’ [/ul][/size]
