This is my blog world. I call it The Labyrinth because life can feel like one, as evidenced my many of my posts.

So. Me:

Name: Sara Ann. (Hate my boring name. And my boring middle name. In fact, only like my last name)

****************************************

Nicknames I've had: Mustard, Scootchers, Gemi, Sara-Bara, Bara, Horcrux, Bestie Doodle. I don't mind MOST nicknames because they're endearing and as I've said, my own name is boring.

****************************************

Age: 18 as of June 2, 2013

****************************************

Favorite color: I actually don't know. I like colorful things. I think blue is very deep, light green is very peaceful, and purple can either be very calming or very passionate. I don't know how to choose just one.

****************************************

Favorite numbers: 4, 16, 394.

****************************************

Likes: Reading, writing, drawing, painting, art, listening to music, complaining, skiing, ice skating, making up stories in my head, laughing, making people laugh, cool/wild clothes, hugs, inspirational quotes, good friends, Harry Potter, dark chocolate, actually any chocolate, Ben and Jerry's, running, hedgehogs, puppies, making fun of politicians, changing peoples' computer backgrounds to weird random stuff while they're not looking, gum.

****************************************

Hates: Any sort of stinging insect, judgmental people, the DMV, that awkward moment when there's an inside joke and I don't get it, waking up early.

****************************************

Fears: Stinging insects, losing people I'm close too, home burning down, that moment when a favorite fictional character dies/turns out to be evil and your whole world kind of dies, always feeling alone, not making it in the world, becoming bitter and jaded, having children and seeing them suffer.

****************************************

Religion: Tolerance. The truth is, though I believe in some kind of power, I'm not sure how I define that at this point. I go to church because I believe in the work we do for the community and the world. I am so sick of people using their religion as an excuse to hate on others. As long as you're a good person I don't care if you don't believe the same thing as I do. In fact, one of my favorite quotes is: "What a coincidence that God hates all the same people you do!"

****************************************

Interesting facts: I have color-changing eyes. They were blue when I was young, but they slowly turned gray-blue. Sometimes they still turn bright blue, and I actually have a couple pictures to prove this. I collect fortune cookie fortunes, chapsticks, and paper books, because I'm afraid they may soon go out of print.

****************************************

My current obsessions: Writing good quotes in calligraphy, Six Word Stories, Shipping fictional characters, Black Butler and anything to do with Sebastian, Mugglenet Memes, Minecraft, funny/catchy songs such as "dumb ways to die" or "I'll make a man out of you" and the following song, "In which Draco and Harry secretly want to make out" by the Whomping Willows, which is...I mean, I don't even know how to...just listen.

****************************************

Favorite Manga/anime: I haven't actually read/watched a whole lot, but...Black Butler by far.

****************************************

Some stuffs about me: First and foremost, I'm a writer and storyteller. Of all the things that have changed in my life, that's been a constant and I'm pretty sure it always will be. I'm also an artist and a calligrapher. I'm pretty sensitive and emotional and can get very fired up over a topic. I like to read beyond reason and when I'm into a very good book I won't notice if my current dwelling falls down around me. I'm a passionate skier. I love nature and hope to live in a place with a lot of forests, mountains, or ocean later in life. I like to talk but I believe in the importance of everyone being quiet once in a while. I'm pretty weird and can also be kinda awkward......yeah. There's also a lot of things about me that are not so good. I try to be better every day and I really like the quote "You should only ever try to be better than the person you were yesterday."
And I love bacon. A lot.

Welcome to the labyrinth that is my life.

I am Dumbledore.

So this is an update. First, I'm trying to change to my Halloween avatar...but the website is not cooperating. Grr. Well, I'm sure I'll figure it out.

My Dumbledore costume is all made! I couldn't resist running around my house with my cloak flapping like a cape, or using the Cruciatus Curse on my little brother. (I'm a great big sister, right?)

Sorry I am contributing to theO being dead...I'm not posting or commenting much, I know, and I'm so sorry. There is just so much going on, and I mentioned that I need to do other things at this time...but you guys are still my friends.

As for the Premium thing...my dad checked with the bank, and his check STILL hasn't gone through. (What the hell? I'm pissed.)

And, yeah, that's pretty much it.

Iz alive!

Just thought I'd post to let you know I'm still alive, but busy. I still love you all! I just don't have as much time to be online.

Hey...

So I may not be on theO as often anymore. My friend's family is going through some bad stuff right now, and I want to be there for her. That may mean I'll be online less. Please just keep her and her family in your prayers. I would appreciate that.

Cupcake?

Where the eff is the cupcake? I am starting to worry that something went wrong with this premium thing...the website said that if you pay by check you may have to wait "a few days"...so, how many days is "a few days"?

Oh, by the way...I finally succumbed to peer pressure and now I have a Facebook.

I will be...

For Halloween, I am going to be Dumbledore! I'm going out later today to get the necessary materials to put my costume together. I'll try and get some pics for you guys!

The best part? My school has a "costume contest" on Halloween. So on Halloween, I am going to school as Dumbledore!
