CAPTION:I'm Shannon, 17, une fille, cancer, Georgia. I also go by 'Kirei', which is Japanese for water fairy (I'm a cancer, so my element is water. Hence, 'water fairy'.) 'Nanami', or 'Shay'. I like to sing, read, write, draw, take photos, and listen to music among many other things.
RELIGION/POLITICAL STANCE: I practice Wicca. I don't worship Satan. Chances are, if you're a complete Jesus/God/close-minded Bible-humper, we won't get along. Click here (coming soon) to read a little in-depth on my choice to practice Wicca. I have no political stance right now. I usually just post whatever I'm feeling about our government at that specific time whenever I feel like it. I'll warn you that I can take my opinions pretty seriously and will get into heated debates over them if provoked. Best not to do so. =D
UNHEALTHY OBSESSIONS: books, Harry Potter, Peter Pan, LotR, vampires, werewolves, King Arthur, some assorted anime and manga, Degrassi, Radio Free Roscoe, BTVS, Angel, Gilmore Girls, One Tree Hill, Star Wars, Sanrio, Carebears, fantasy, faeries, Lemony Snicket's A Series of Unfortunate Events, Cate Tiernan's Sweep series, Holly Black's Spiderwick Chronicles, Eoin Colfer's Artemis Fowl series, Lynne Ewing's Sons of the Dark series, Lynne Ewing's Daughter's of the Moon series, Louise Rennison's Georgia Nicolson series, Meg Cabot's Mediator series, Wicca, various actors and actresses, movies, yaddayadda&etc.
WTF's UP WITH THE USERNAME: What does it mean? The word 'shirty' is one of my favorite English expressions. It basically means testy, pissed off, or annoyed. Used in a sentence, "WTF! Stop getting so
shirty with Oliver Wood, Prof. McGonagall! He just wants to win the damn Quidditch Cup!!"
FAVORITE AUTHORS: Holly Black, Vivian Vande Velde, Amelia Atwater-Rhodes, Annette Curtis Klause, Cate Tiernan, Garth Nix, Marianne Curley, Elizabeth George Speare, Philip Pullman, Louise Rennison, Meg Cabot, Celia Rees, Michael Cunningham, Cornelia Funke, Lynne Ewing, Daniel Handler, Sean Desmond, the ever-amazing JKR (&etc).

the rack. 'Tis a complete list of music I love (give or take a few). I guess mostly indie rock? And it sometimes extends to classical music (You know, the type you'd listen to on a Harry Potter OST. John Williams.). I don't usually go for the screaming hardcore RAAAAWWRR rock. But I
will say that I listen to whatever I like. I'm open to anything. Even if it's something by Avril Lavigne or Ashlee Simpson. *gasp*

SO IN LOVE: Disney movies, getting e-mail, the smell of pizza cooking, laughter, bunnies, Batman (I love the movies! <3), Catwoman, movies, Studio Ghibli, Xmen, reading what people write on bathroom stalls, reading people's journals, pirates, ninjas, cold weather, fiddling around, AIM, money, Christmas, friends, indie films, interesting people, guitarists (boys, mostly), singers (again, boys), webcams, cameras, horror films, Lucky Charms, Cap'n Crunch, The Muppets, RPGs, graphics (making and adoring), poetry, fanfiction, windy and rainy days, thunderstorms, snow, having a good day.
SO VERY HATING: spiders (Yeah, I'm just a Ronald Weasley copycat.), shots, boredom, close-minded people, people not willing to have fun in life (basically people with big fat sticks up their asses who believe immature people are evil), my habit with procrastination (I hate it, but am famous for it.), no sleep, not having money, maths, the latest trends people set at our school (I'll admit, I've fallen in with them before, but I still hate it when people just seem to wear the same shit--great example: UGG boots. asafdskdlgndlgkngkl!!! >F I hate UGG boots. DAMNMUTHERFURRYBOOTS!@$$@!!!), the labels people set on music and how we are forced to use them so other people know what music style we're talking about (music is music).
OMG PERSONALITY CHECK: I love simple things. Complication scares me and makes me feel bad. I have trust issues and can be paranoid over any small thing. Ink pens and sharpies are wonderful. Open fields with breezy winds blowing the grass all around make me smile. Thunderstorms are the best type of weather to write in or just curl up in a blanket with a book, preferably fantasy-related. I love snow most especially. I love making new friends, but I abhor my enemies. I also dislike close-minded people an exceptional amount. I love my hair. I am a statistic of 99.99999etc% of girls that hate some part of their body. Mine happens to be my arms
and the rest of my body. Despite that, I do have self-confidence and I refuse to show any weaknesses I have to strangers along with any doubts I have about myself. But I do accept my weaknesses and believe that they empower me. I enjoy roaming my neighborhood aimlessly with or without friends. I like just talking about life, or anything in general (doesn't have to be important). Laughter is grand. I like pretty guys a great deal, especially those who sing or play guitars. English, French, Irish, or Italian accents are a plus, too. I couldn't give a damn about being serious (unless it's needed) and my entries can be short, long, or in-between. I like wearing makeup sometimes, but there are days when I prefer going au natural. Makeup is fun! I hate it when people pass judgment on those they don't know. I don't like people who say mean things, unless deserved. Doing it just because isn't reason enough. I don't like worrying. That being said, I don't like school! And, of course, that’s in reference to maths and sciences. I love music. Music, Harry Potter, Star Wars, books, and Peter Pan are my life. I love writing and drawing (of all sorts, i.e.: poems and... erm, sketching?). My dream job is to be a children's book illustrator and writer
when I grow up.
