Welcome! and About Me

Uh, hi. Name's Rayy.

Well, er, I should prob'ly tell ya 'bout myself, hm?

I'm fourteen years old (fifteen in two months and 9 days, not that I'm counting) with short, naturally (cursedly) curly light brown hair and green eyes, hidden behind half-rimmed glasses. I've got freckles and my skin is pale-ish because I hate going outside. Most times, you can find me in my bedroom at my desk on my computer - an old laptop with a broken screen, on top of which is the screen of a desktop and on the sides of which are two speakers because the damn thing doesn't have a sound card or whatever. My desk is covered in random papers, books, notebooks, CDs, games, my stereo, pens, and two phones (one home phone, and my cell).

I have three siblings. There's the Blonde Child (aka Blondie), whose hair is platinum blonde. She's 10 years old (though she acts like she's 7 and thinks she's 20) and pretty much my polar opposite. There's my Squishy, my 5 year old brother with dirty blonde hair and a million watt smile, as well as an unhealthy obsession with the computer. He's never off, and when he is he never stops whining. Last, but not least, is Brother Child, who is actually right here now, playing Portal 2 (again) on his laptop at my desk. He looks like a taller, thinner version of Squishy. He's turning 13 in a month.

Then there's my 'rents. My mom, whose kind of psycho and stalks my dad, is about as Southern as possible, what with her accent and South Carolina roots. My dad's in the Air Force and is kind of awesome. They're currently separated, soon to be divorced, and my sibs and I currently live with our mother.

Alright, now my friends.

Guys first.

There's Mason, my best friend since the second half of seventh grade. We dated, once upon a time, but it didn't work out because neither of us could really think of each other as anything other than best friends. It felt like I was dating my brother. Now, we have gym and lunch together (which isn't nearly enough).

Next is Morgan, a good friend since last year. He's freaking hilarious and knows more about my obsessions than anyone because it annoys him when I talk about them so, naturally, I never shut up.

Then there's Aaron, my gay friend who's got this tendency to get on my nerves. He has this whiny voice and this... cliny-ness that grates on my nerves. He's great, and I can talk to him about anime and yadda yadda yadda, but he just irritates me sometimes.

Now, girls.

Tanner. My best friend from seventh grade and the first half of eighth, who's psycho and homophobic and just an all around bitch to everyone she knows. We get along on and off, but when we were really "close" I felt like I was married, and it wasn't a happy marriage. It's that marriage where the wife doesn't allow her husband to have any friends and he eventually dumps her ass for her best friend. Which brings me to...

Little Lauren. My absolute best friend since the end of seventh grade, whom is more important to me than anyone else on the planet. She and I have a... complicated relationship, to say the least. We dated for at least half of eighth grade (Rayy's bi, by the way), then she dumped me at the beginning of this school year with a whole "I love you, but I'm not in love with you," thing that kind of pisses me off, but she's still my best friend ever and I can bear being just that.

Next, Hayley. She's a pretty good friend, bordering on best, whose obsessed with her hard rock/metal/core/monkeys/whatever music and the color black and My Little Pony (the last is my fault). She's pretty freaking awesome, but we haven't had much communication in the last week because she kinda asked me out (indirectly) and I kinda rejected her (indirectly). It's not that I don't think she's amazing, but... she's not my type. And I'm not over LLP (Little Lauren Person) as of yet.

Other Lauren (not to be confused with Little Lauren), a good friend of Mason and Hayley who I became great friends with last year. She's one of the band geeks (as are Mason, Morgan, and Hayley) and is really down to earth and nice and thoughtful and really awesome.

Last, Stephanie, who I great friends with back in seventh grade. Last year, she was home schooled for no real reason and is back now and is awesome and very, very strange but I love her anyway.

Er... what else is there? We're all dorks and kind of crazy (not including Tanner, whom nobody likes anyway), and we're all really close and kind of like a family once you get everyone together (which never happens Dx).

Uhhh... I dunno what else to put xD

Well, I'll be using this blog for a lot of things. Posting links to my Fiction Press account, talking about fanfics I've read and music I've listened to and games I've played, rambling about stories I'm writing and people I know and ranting about my friends and family and my sanity (or lack thereof) and... it'll be kind of overwhelming, I assume.

Welcome to my mind!
Love,
Rayy
