hi there, y'all.

[amandaxjayx17.livejournal.com]

Name: amanda jay, obviously.

Age: 16

Location: las vegas, nv.

How do you identify?: (sexuality/gender) somewhere between bisexual and gay (i hate the word lesbian) but i'm more apt to say i'm just open. i'm attracted to people, not necessarily gender.

Interests/hobbies: i listen to music, pretty much 24/7. i watch movies, mostly indie. mainstream are usually all the same. i write every now and then, poems or flash fictions mostly. i also draw and paint occasionally, but i'm not very good. i'm also an advanced tech at my school. i like to do sound, but building shit is fun too. (techs are the ninjas that run around in all black making shit happen during plays/musical bytheway, for those who might not have known).

Favourite books: the catcher in the rye, just listen, full tilt, 1984, the five people you meet in heaven, a perfect day for bananafish. i don't read nearly as much as i wish i did, i have a short attention span. about the size of a donut.

Favourite films: get him to the greek, latter days, adventureland, how to be, wristcutters: a love story, humble pie, children of men, the graduate, milk, the hangover, rocky horror, the cake eaters, seven pounds, and though not a movie i'mma throw house in here because it's my absolute favourite filmed thing, ever.

Favourite music: i will listen to anything if it's good. and by good, i normally mean lyrics. lately though i've been digging cute is what we aim for, paramore, the used, eminem, simon and garfunkel, black veil brides. shit like that. but i have a wide variety. i just cycle through it in phases.

What would you like to send/receive?: i would prefer emails. they're just faster, but this thinking might just be a product of my generation. also, i'm still in the closet so my mom might flip a bitch (not proud of this, but if i'm not even sure of what i am, i don't feel like i can explain it to her well). oh, how i love being a teenager.

Who would you like to send and receive mail from?: anyone semi-like minded, and anyone who can make me smile.(:

What countries would you like to receive mail from and send to?: oh, the beauty of emails. wherever, as long as you speak comprehendible english.

Anything that you would particularly NOT like to receive?: (eg. "food/candy with nuts") i don't think it applies.. but naah.

What would be in your dream letter or package?: something that could touch me. y'know? makes me feel like wow: they get it. i don't know if that makes sense. but just something that makes me know that they're thoughtful and aware.

Anything else you'd like to add?: i struggle a little bit with depression, or bipolar. but generally i'm pretty chill. and i'm super sarcastic, in a nice way though. plus, i live in sin city so i'm down for about anything. i hope you don't mind, i do the british spellings even though i'm american. yeah, i'm strange. my friend calls me canadian, because i watched too much degrassi and picked up their weird 'o' pronunciations. and i warn, i have a foul mouth. i won't change it. i like to cuss. sue me. and i also have a tendency to talk to much. :/
