(Yes...my name is really Graves. Call me Brittanny or Miss Graves. Either or.)

I've tried to look at life and the world around me a little deeper than most my age do. Analysis (be it deep or something minor) has become a rare action among younger folks. I've worked on improving my overall personality to try and make myself into a somewhat upstanding citizen, but never can meet the standard.

I have finally been redeemed to a point where I believe I am seeing my true self. After five (long) years of building thrones for lies and bringing down those who cared, maybe even loved me, I am myself again. Going against my beliefs, I have been redeemed--cut from every false statement and personality I created--by my closest friend. Unfortunately, the damage is done...and there are no buts; that's all.

Enough with the boo-hoo bullshit. I am generally a happy person. We all are, but most of us seem to like to put up the "hey, I don't care what the fuck you think of me!" barrier was soon as we get to the keyboard. It's pathetic. I guess I can say I care, to some extent. I won't be sitting here, slitting my wrists because you called me fat, so don't get carried away.

Going to college this fall, New England School of Communications. My main goal in life is to work in film. Directing, writing, anything but in front of the camera work; not my line of duty. Aside from that, in the two years I'm going, I plan on switching to audio engineering, recording, since I'm not entirely talented with the creation of music.

Instruments, I play a little guitar. I think we all pick it up at some point. Only played for about a year. I'm more proficient on keyboard.

Neglecting to divulge my religious side, because most jump out and say it straight up. I am no longer a LaVeyian Satanism.

General:

Religion study, philosophy, psychology, film making, drawing, painting, script writing, story writing, horror movies, cult films

Features:

Chubby goth girls (eh...), long hair (black, blue, brown or red), facial hair, meaningful tattoos (family emblems, so on...)

The direction our government has been steering into, our governmental system (in general), senseless war, pro-war Christian fanatics, those of Christian faith that force-feed their beliefs, blind bigotry, homophobic people.

On a less serious note: emo/scene kids, emo/scene kids on MySpace with "Whore Me!" profiles, mall Goth, Nightmare Before Christmas

A variety. I still listen to some things I listened to as a kid (ie. Smash Mouth, Steppenwolf, No Doubt...).

(Good) Black and death metal has become more appealing to me in recent years.
