Shadow Poet here, I'm 23 and I've been on VF for quite a while. I go to North Carolina State University in the Academic Study of Religion. I'm Board Chairman of Shadow of the Cross Inc. (www.shadowofthecross.org) and I like to cook. I'm still getting the hang of Gothic makeup (half the people I know love it, half hate it), I love throwing together awesome outfits before going to Legends on Thursdays (local goth club). Hanging out with my friends, dancing to Switchblade Symphony, I-Dragon-I, and Collide is a great way to stress relief... Hm... I love to make chainmaille in my spare time (currently working on an 8-in-one design choker for my special friend)..

Dislikes
Most things out of Hollywood these days, cold weather, sunlight careening through the windshield into my eyes, the smell of burning tires, hopelessness and numbness, bad poetry, bad music, this "new tolerance" bullcrap, people who don't try, people who take their sexuality and use it as the basis of their identity (for example: most people who buy rainbow-pattern clothing), Stephani Meyer, Barack Obama, Tom Goes To The Mayor, boiled okra, brier bushes, EMO/Scene pseudo-culture, people who judge my faith based on the color of my clothing, anti-war activists, vegans, yuppies, HYPOCRISY, misunderstandings, passive compliance, 9/11 conspiracy theorists, pseudo-scientific dumbasses, over-enthusiastic paranormal researchers (who rely more on artistic imagination than EMF readings), more to come...
