About
There's a difference between falling and not being able to get back up, and falling and not wanting to get back up. Which one is worse depends on how badly you fell, and why. There are many things one should know about me:
For starters, I have a lot of nicknames. You can pick one to refer to me as since I don't really care for people using my real name. Yes, I know it's up here on my profile, but still, it doesn't mean I have to like it. People generally call me Neeeks, Ing, Inks or Echo though some people call me Gummy-bear, Echo-Neko or Seris [Satsu].
Sometimes my friends add "-chan" to my nicknames as well. If you want to call me by another nickname feel free to do that too; I love nicknames. I'm nice and usually quiet, unless I'm with my friends. I consider myself to be more like a chameleon than a loner since I can fit in with anyone, whether it be the preps, Jocks, Juggalos, Goths, etc. I can befriend anyone who lets me, and I reserve judgment until I feel like it. I care too much what others think of me, tend to keep my thoughts to myself and trust people way too easily, and I've been hurt more times than I can count for it.
I feel that a friendship should be formed around what people have in common, not focused on their differences, though most of today's society doesn't seem to work this way. I can tolerate a lot and I can always find a way to relate to someone whether it be through music, a television show or movie, books, or just a simple hobby. I'm always there for my friends whether it be physically or mentally. I would prefer to be there physically all the time but since I live at least an hour away from them, I can't. I get upset when my friends cry and when I can't do anything to help them. I tend to think I'm very considerate and, even though I may not show always it, have sensitive feelings. I can take a joke, laugh at them with other people, but there's a fine line between having fun and being serious.
I tend to take things to heart, even when I try not to; I've been trying to change that about me for years but it just never seems to work for me. I'm a hopeless romantic at heart, but I can go without if I need to. I don't need to go on luxurious dates to know I'm loved. A box of chocolates, a bouquet of flowers, or even a small gift is enough. Sure, going all out will make me happy (it'll make anyone happy) but I've always felt that it's the little things that matter. It doesn't take a lot to make me smile or laugh, but the same goes for getting on my nerves. I won't say anything for a while because I can tolerate things easily, but I hate having to repeat myself when I'm mad. It doesn't take long for me to calm down though, but if I don't, then it means I'm really ticked off. I do hold grudges, take things to heart, cry, and hear what people say. I'm human and have feelings too.
I am me. Nothing less, nothing more.
I won't judge you for who you are, and I would appreciate the same from you.
I'm a lot of things. I'm owned by Vampy, but she sold me to Specter as a trade for Scotland, and I'm Grim's pet, so he's one of my owners as well. I currently have three owners: Vampy, Specter, and Grim, two wives: Vampy and Amanda [Manderz], a best friend: Brittany [Minyonka], a bitch: Mykaila [Monkey], and probably some more in the future.
I have an annoying little brother who is turning into a huge Naruto fan, much to my enjoyment [I'm lacking a better word at the moment], and an older sister who thinks I'm the strangest person ever for how much I love anime and anything related to Visual Kei. My mom is a workaholic and I just happened to have of inherited that gene, though I'm also probably one of the laziest people you'll ever meet. How those two go together is beyond me, but whatever. I'm not quite sure what I want to be, but it's one of the following: an author, an artist, or something that has to deal with animals, but not a vet because I get too attached to animals to be able to put one down. Just the thought of it makes me sad because I'm the type of girl that goes out and brings a stray animal into my house if it's hurt or sick. My mom gets mad at me for it though, but I don't care.
I have a dog named Deminda, Mindy for short, and she's a 3/4 Pomeranian 1/4 Dachshund mix, and my mom's cat and one of mine at our currently apartment: Tuxedo, Tux for short, and Loki. Tux happened to come with an old apartment we lived at. His previous owners left him behind but now I'm his proud owner. My mom took him to the pound because she didn't want another pet even though I told her I wanted to keep him, and after being adopted by someone on the other side of town, three months later, he showed back up at the house and my mom saw no point in taking him back to the pound since she knew he would just come back. He sleeps on my pillow every night, unless I have company; then he sleeps on my moms pillow, which really bothers her since she only has one pillow and I have two, one for him and one for me. I also have four rescue-case cats (Snickers, Hollywood, Jackie and Sylvester) who are still living at my old roommate's place down in Alabama. Since I'm living with my mom at the moment I couldn't bring my four back up from Alabama so my old roommates offered to take care of them for me until I get something figured out up here.
My life is pretty boring since a lot of my friends are usually working or in school, but I'm almost always online to talk to my online friends, role-play in cults and/or work on my stories. I love to hang outside when it's nice, watch movies, hang with friends, playing video games, and listen to music.
