I live in Illinois, just south of Chicago. I love Harry Potter. I tend to be a slacker and procrastinator, but I'm a perfectionist and a bit of an overachiever. I love to hang out with my friends, doing anything. Going downtown or create mayhem. Random trips. Playing around in stores. I have 4 cats (all very adorable) and a turtle, along with 7 family members, not including me. Also, my brother's girlfriend, who is like my big sister, and my best friend, who might as well be my sister. I love candy, though I have cut back dramatically on eating it. I love pop (NOT soda), like Pepsi and Jones Soda Co. products. I'm a TBWLer. I have an addiction to buying movies. It's like crack for me. I love finding new video stores and video sales, but I always go broke and don't know when to quit. My family and friends make fun of me for it ... Even strangers! It's kind of sad. I also have a long list of tv shows I need to watch. I get teased for that too... I'm not here to please anyone. I'm short-tempered sometimes and easily annoyed. I don't like to be given orders. In fact, it pissed me off a lot. Don't tell me to do anything, don't send me links and tell me I need to check them out. Don't force your opinion on me. I'm a pretty relaxed-ish person otherwise. I'm always bored, never boring, according to an old friend. I question this sometimes. I like sports and working out, although I lack drive to do so a lot. I am madly in love with the works of Joss Whedon. My HP guy crushes: Fred Weasley and Draco Malfoy. And of course, Sirius and Remus. I'm such a fangirl, through and through. It's probably pretty obnoxious.
