Well, hello and welcome to my journal!
I've been a member of LJ for quite a while now, but surprisingly haven't actually posted anything yet. I did have quite a few posts before, but they were all graphics posts and I have my own graphics journal now, so I just deleted them. I should also probably move my resources post to my graphics journal... I'll do that soon.
Anyways! I should probably introduce myself... Who's actually gonna read this? It's kind of a waste of time... Oh well, I might as well post something on the lines of interesting for my -official- first post, so here goes:
I'm Lauren, but everyone calls me Lolo, or Pinky. I'm 15 and live in Scotland. I love it here and couldn't imagine living anywhere else, I actually really do love it. My second most favourite place in the world would have to be Portugal. I've been there numerous times on holiday and can't wait to go back for another holiday ASAP. Speaking of places around the world, I'm obsessed with Japan and everything to do with it. I'm learning Japanese [by myself] and can't wait for the day when I actually go there, which is my only dream in life right now. I just love everything about Japan, I find it amazing!
A big part of my life would have to be music... I couldn't live without music. It would make like -so- dull and just, non-livable really. Music gives you that escape that -everyone- needs once in a while. And also, I listen to every type of music imaginable. Really. I just live any kind of music. I -hate- how people can be so close-minded about music. That's one thing that really gets to me. Especially people who slag you off for liking a particular genre of music or artist... Fair enough, everyone is entitled to their opinion, but please, don't push it onto other people. If someone likes something that you don't just say "Oh ok, well, I really don't like them, but if you do, fair enough, I'm not gonna harass you about it." That's all that needs to be said.
Another big part of my life has to be animals. I love animals so much. I would love to work with animals when I'm older, that would be amazing. I'm a vegetarian, and have been for over 2 years. I'm incredibly happy and proud of myself because of this because when I announced to everyone that I know that I was going to turn vegeterian they all said "Oh, it's just a phase, it'll pass" and "Ah, she'll never stick to it... It'll last a month, I bet you!" When people said this it kind of hurt me that they weren't taking me seriously... But then I thought "Well, they'll see, I'll prove them wrong" and I'm proud that I have. And really, I'm most probably going to be a vegetarian for the rest of my life... I mean, I can't tell what's going to happen in the future, but right now I can say that I couldn't even imagine eating meat again in my life, the thought of it kind of makes me feel sick. =/
Ok, I think that's enough babble from me now... Probably pointless, as I doubt anyone will read it... If anyone does, please give me a comment, even if it's just saying" yeah, I read this" that's fine by me, just so that I know someone's read it! =]
