Hello, girls. It's Saturday.

What better time to write a blog then a quarter to 1 on Saturday morning?
I certainly can't think of one.
And now, on to introductions.
Hello, dears. I'm the other Melissa. I'm 16 years old and I'm from central Florida, in scenic "Shark Bite Capital of the World." I'm probably the poorest example of a Floridian you may ever encounter. 1, I'm not elderly or retired; 2, I don't much like orange juice; 3, I don't like to swim in the ocean. I actually can't, as weird as that is. I tend to swim like a rock when there are currents involved. Pools are nice, though... *ahem* Onward.
I, like Karen, am interested in photography, painting, and drawing. However I don't have any fancy links to anything as of yet, but maybe later. I'm also quite a theatre nerd, but this was actually a more recent discovery thanks to taking drama last year. Upon entering this year as a junior, I will be a full-fledged drama geek, instead of having to juggle drama with band, which, let's be honest here, can't be done. Plus I enjoy it more and can see myself wanting to make a career out of it, so it just makes sense to me. If only my band director would stop guilt tripping me over it... But I digress.
I'm pretty addicted to the internet. Namely YouTube and MySpace, and of course the Ning. I've been getting into vlogging on my YouTube channel, and I have a whopping 3 subscribers (5 if you want to be technical, but 2 of them are suspended accounts.) I have a few AMVs, too.
Ummm... what else... Well, I've been trying to learn guitar, since my dad plays in a band and he gave me his Danelectro for my birthday a few years ago, and my mom got a Daisy Rock off of eBay when she wanted to learn but decided it was to hard, so I've been using that to practice. So far I have A minor and E minor pretty well under my belt. So, yay me. Hah.
Some favorite bands of mine are System of a Down (wahh they broke up Dx ), Serj Tankian, Scars on Broadway (SOAD came back, only as separate musical groups. HAHA!<3), style="font-weight: bold;">Who are your heroes? This is a tough one... I'd have to say my dad, because of everything he's done for me and just everything he's done in general. And my boyfriend, who's leaving for boot camp soon to be a marine. He's one of the greatest people I know, he's a real intellectual and I really look up to him. He's one of my best friends.
What are your favorite shoes to wear? This would be a tie between a pair of flip-flops that have this tatami mat thing going on on the bottom and cherry blossom print that I wear with everything in the summer, and these black and white converse that I doodle upon and knighted "The Gay Pride Converse." They're beautiful.

What is your favorite book? I have a few. I'd have to go with the Harry Potter Series by JK Rowling, Hitchhiker's Guide series by Douglas Adams, Series of Unfortunate Events by Lemony Snicket, and The Lovely Bones by Alice Sebold, off the top of my head.
Random things I love/love to do? Oh, wow. Well, I love going to anime conventions, and I make it a point to purchase a bottle of a flavor of Ramune that I haven't tried yet. I collect the bottles... And I collect memories. It sounds weird, the way I put it. But basically I never throw away a note, a doodle, a strange trinket, etc. that was given to me by a friend or something if there's a memory or something behind it. For example, I have a pine cone sitting on my bookshelf. And a bright yellow cardboard seahorse taped to my wall. I could go on, I have a few random obsessions.
Favorite TV show? I would say Friends, That 70s Show, The Simpsons, Family Guy, and Whose Line is it Anyway? and Cash Cab. I don't watch a whole lot of TV, though, but when I do, it's usually one of those. Or else stand-up comedy.
How would you describe your style? Oh, how many times I've asked myself this question. I'm definitely a mish-mash of sorts. Basically, however I'm feeling at the time. Jeans, Tripps, band shirts, screen tees, novelty tees, I tend to like anything with a Japanese flair. I'm kind of like someone took goth, punk, scene, indie, and a few nerdy quotes and jokes and tossed it like fashion salad.
Day person or night person? Night person, definitely. It is, after all, 1:30 in the morning.
Coffee or Tea? I'm picky about my coffee, so I'll go with tea. If my coffee tastes like coffee, I won't like it. Strange, I know.
What is your favorite cheese? White American, from the Publix deli.
What is the last thing you bought? A Frozen Flagler Latte from the coffee house on the beach near where I live, where I am currently trying to get a job. I love the place, and the Flagler Latte is the best thing to happen to coffee.

Well, that's all I have for the moment. I'm so excited that this project is up and off the ground! I'm eager to get to know all of you. =]
The end.

(My, this was long X_X)
