Oh, hello.
Please allow me to introduce myself: my name is Xanthippe and I am myself. But to a stranger, that doesn't say a lot. I'll tell you more. That is, if you want to know.
I look very average. Not very tall. Not slim, but not fat either. Messy, dark blonde hair and brown eyes that can turn very big and empty when I'm daydreaming - and that happens a lot. I'm not really unhappy about the way I look, but not extremely happy about it either.
I was born on the 29th of March, 1992. Or at least, so I was told. I was raised as a human, I look like one and sound like one. But somehow I have always felt 'different' (and alone), and have always been drawn to the unknown and to things most people call 'fantasy' (which is also referred to as 'fiction' or 'rubbish'). By the time I (or rather, my body) was nine, I knew most of what's to know about vampires and werewolves and had even tried to sleep upside down once. I was fascinated by magic, and before I turned twelve I already knew a great deal about wicca. The interest is still there and I never really stopped learning.
I'm very shy and silent when I first meet someone, but once I feel comfortable around someone my personality turns around - I become an extravert and jumpy person, and talk too much.
I know a lot of people. Some of them are merely acquaintances, a "hello, it's been a while, how are you, goodbye". Some of them are people I'd do anything for.
I'm a tolerant and forgiving person - too forgiving, actually - but that does not mean that I forget. I try to be friendly to people I don't like too. Only two or three people have annoyed me enough to make me stop tolerating. It all comes down to these basic rules: "whatever you do comes back to you, but three times worse" and "do as you wish, as long as you harm no-one".
I am an artist. I love to draw (and I've been told I'm quite good at it) - my school material is filled with sketches of all kinds, and I love painting as well. I've started sewing too, but I'm still learning. I also sing in the Antwerp Cathedral Choir and my school choir, and have been doing so for six years (I have one of our choir songs in my music player).
I'm a bit of a perfectionist, but can be very sloppy at the same time.
Here comes the only part of this profile you'll remember: I'm a romantic, tender person, but I have a thing for bdsm too. No, don't even think about it; this profile is for making friends, I'm not looking for a boyfriend and I'm not looking for sex either.
As you'll notice in my gallery, I don't stick to one style. I mostly wear Victorianesque/Classic clothing, but some wardrobe variation never killed anyone.
Congratulations if you've made it this far without falling asleep!
