Hi everyone!
Hello! since I'm obviously new here I guess I'll start with the questionnaire...
1. I'm a student studying architecture, so mostly I sit around during the ungodly hours of the morning building models and stressing.
2. I'm from a really tiny settlement south of Sacramento, California-it's not even a town really.
3. I'm more fond of books in general: Brave New World, The Stranger, Macbeth, and a Tale of Two Cities are a few favorites in addition to Ann Rice and Stephen King...
4. I love A Clockwork Orange, various French films, and plenty of campy/B grade sci-fi and fantasy films.
5. I would like "Don't Fear the Reaper" played at my wedding because it brings up fond memories
6. At my funeral, well, something frivolous and totally unexpected because I'd rather those in attendance laugh and remember good times then dwell in present sadness
7. hmm..maybe sailing off a waterfall once I've reached a nice old age
8. no casket, I think I might want to be frozen
9. I ususally wear straight black or burgundy jeans with any kind of black/grey/purple shirt and metallic black scarf with Doc Martens and plenty of jewelry. but no jacket, it's hot in LA
10. I miss the way summer seemed so long and I was always free to go play outside and just be creative and not have to worry about finals, a job, tuition, etc.
11. I enjoy Bauhaus (of course), Christian Death, David Bowie, Fields of the Nephilim, Sisters of Mercy and (please don't hate me for this) some Nine Inch Nails
12. I'm currently working on my 5 year Bachelor's degree in architecture at the University of Southern California
13. I've been reading threads i my spare time lately and you all seem like an interesting bunch
14. If you couldn't guess..I'm female

Welcome. I really enjoy A Clockwork Orange as well as all your other fil selections. You also have an excellent choice in literature. I do hope you stick around, you seem very nice.

You gain acceptance for music, yes NIN can be good, if the mood strikes me, but even more so, for your literary choices. Shakespeare makes me happy. Welcome.

I wind up using Microsoft Office Picture Manager, since I am a poor ex-college student. If you select the right photo, then click on the edit tab, it will bring up a way to resize the picture. I believe ours is 80x80 pixels.
