What shall I put here, exactly? An engaging paragraph to catch your attention, full of tiny tidbits of actual information and several lines of fluff attempting to engross you enough to read the rest of my thoughts? This seems to be the norm in what I encounter on the majority of profiles that are not just.. random useless words, half-built sentences hopefully not reflective of the mind they've come from. No; I think this time I'll just type, as if I'm having a conversation with myself. Hello, self.

My name is Chelsea. But everyone calls me Chelsea; why aren't you different? The closest thing I've ever had to a nickname was a period of time I was referred to as Thumper, (see; Bambi) because I'm one of those people who shakes their legs when sitting down for long periods of time. I landed in this little community on February 4th, 2008. I am approaching my fourth year here, and have met painfully few friends to show for it. I find this place mostly full of angsty teens and attention-starved 40-somethings; (Ask me how many adult men have tried to convince me they are vampires or werewolves. Ask me, seriously.) But as with all sites, there are diamonds in the rough, and that is what I'm here to find. But I'm supposed to be telling you about me, aren't I?

I've been told I speak oddly. I have a reader's vocabulary and love to learn new words. It's something of a fascination. I've also been told I have little words and phrases that are distinctly.. me.

I also have a fanatical interest in photography. My camera is a dear friend of mine, one that allows me to express myself and explore my creativity in a form that suits me best. I enjoy photographing models, usually friends, and enjoy just as much photographing random things/people I spot when I'm out and about.

** I hate random friend ads. Hate them. Potential actual friends, take note please! **

There! That was mostly painless, wasn't it? Now that you've finished my little spiel, why don't you go ahead and inch that mouse down a little further, hit that comment button and tell me about you? I don't bite.
