meh. Here we go then ><

Name: Jennifer
Nickname: Jeni; Jen; the big scary goff; Mav.
Age : 17
Lives: in reality, wee place near Glasgow, Scotland; but I prefer to say The Asylum for Wayward Victorian Girls
Favourite things: Metal, horse riding, mates, being with my boyfriend (doesn't happen much...he lives near London and I only met him BOA 08 so yeah...), selected piercings (ear lobes, cartlidge, tragus, rook, industrial, lip once at side! - got ear lobes x2 and an industrial and hopefully getting most of the rest of these over the next year or so), my phone and my MP3 player =)
Favourite Bands: Katatonia, D'espairsRay, Emilie Autumn, Nightwish, Dir en Grey, Sonata Arctica, Novembre, Elis, Dream Theater, The GazettE, X Japan, Flyleaf, Disturbed, After Forever, Nightwish, Opeth, more...
Least favourite things: neds (chavs, dammit!), closed-minded people, posers, scene kids, people attending Bloodstock for metalhead cock, not having money, breaking my earphones (happens a lot =( ), rain! and the buses down my stop. They are so unreliable it's not funny!
First bloodstock attended - Indoor 2005, at age 13! =D
Last Gig - em...Disturbed, Glasgow Carling Academy, 7th Oct (day before my birthday =D )
Next gig - Sabaton, 4th November, Glasgow, Ivory Blaks (supported y local band Concept of Time who played the unsigned stage at BOA 08 and rocked the hell out of you!)

so um yeah. That's me...basically. I am a bit kinda crazy at times but you'll get used to it and half the time my comments can be very in your face but I'll try hold back. I am nice, but please do not attempt to patronise me or insult my intelligence; I may have only recently turned 17 but that does not by any means mean that I am stupid so, be warned =^_^=
Urg that sounds pure bitchy =( I'm not really that nasty, k, I'm just fed up of people everywhere in the metal community treating me like something they stepped in so I started fighting back. I can get on with anyone and everyone who is prepared to let me be myself!

Just a wee bit, but we're making it work! MSN all the time, apart from when we're at school/college or work...or i he's out climbig and I'm horse riding but every available moment is spent online...and he phones me every morning. Hopefully going down over New Year then he'll be coming up here when he gets his half term in February. And he's considering moving up here next year...meh.

9I think it's only a 7 hour train journey...bus is closer to 9 hours. Going to fly down though XD might cost a bit more than the bus, not sure about the train, but it gets me there in a couple of hours. Nae bother =)

Seeing as you dislike straightners and shaving you're quite smoothed chinned and straight haired :P.

The straight hair's natural. I hate the look of unnaturally straightened hair on anyone. As for the shaving, I had a beard, and when I got shot of it, it took three razors and a long long time to get it back to normal. Epic. :p

:( Just checked, and it seems the website I found it on hadn't updated the site for about a year. It didn't have the year on or anything. I was wrong. Gutted.
