1)      What is your Nickname?  Never have had one. Sigh.

2)      Where are you from? Atlanta, GA, though I don't live there now.

3)      Gender? Female

4)      Age? Approx if you wish :o) 22

5)      Marital Status? Single

6)      What is your current occupation? Student, retail sales (which sux)

7)      What dreams do you have? If you have loads stick to the nicest one. I want to eventually start my own publishing company to make artful books -- not just yucky mass market paper backs that smell funny and feel icky when you touch the paper.

8)      What is your favourite colour/combination of colours? lavender, and this weird acidy green 

9)      What is your favourite item of clothing that you own? a floor length black satin skirt with tiny school girl pleats. It's fabu.

10)  What item of clothing would you most like to own? a custom corset in some kind of black/lavender brocade.

11)  What is your ideal look that you hope to achieve when you get all dressed up? I like looking disapproving -- evil librarian. Sometimes I just want to look like a serious-about-dancing industrial chick. It depends on where I'm going.

12)  What do you like seeing on the opposite sex? Or possibley the same sex, depending on which you normally take a liking to, or if you like both, give 2 answers :o)(Take this question how you like <weg>)  bois in black eye-liner drive me mad. Lust for the bois in good make-up. And nail polish. 
And vinyl. Ooooh, vinyl pants.

13)  What message would you like to send to the world? Please keep it under 100 words. All is well with the universe; all is as it should be.

14)  What’s your ideal night out? Get up around noon-ish and shop for something interesting to wear out (at the thrift stores). Actually find something interesting. Spend and hour in the shower washing my hair and pampering my skin. Spend an hour-ish blow drying my hair (it's long, thick, and curly, which means I have to use a diffuser. It takes FOREVER.) and then fixing it some nifty way. Get dressed and spend an hour or so on make-up. Hang out with friends at a house for a while. Hit the club about midnight-ish and dance until three am. Go to Patsios, a little 24-hour Greek diner place. Go home and check my e-mail. Take another shower. Go to sleep around 6 am

15)  What do you like most about the alt.gothic.fashion newsgroup? I'm "normal" for once. I have a place to go when I need to figure out exactly where one can buy rubber sheeting. Most everyone gets the innuendo/ naughty bits, and no one thinks I'm going to burn in hell for laughing at dead-baby jokes.

16)  Do you wear make-up? Most of the time.

17)  If so, what colours do you normally use, and what style? I tend to wear shiny red on my lips fairly exclusively. I occasionally wear a lavender lip gloss. My makeup tends to be fairly simple -- lavender eye shadow, gray liner, black mascara. Sometimes though I'll play and then anything is fair game. I have fabulous teal eye-shadow powder and lots of strange bright colors.

18)  What colour is your hair? dark brown with burgundy/plum highlights

19)  When did you last dye it?  February, but it was semi-perm.

20)  If you could have it any colour, what colour would it be? Bright blue-violet.

21)  And what style? waist-length curls. I'm getting there, it's most of the way down my back.

22)  Do you think it’s unfair that girls/grrls have a much better choice of clothing? yes. Which is why I firmly believe men should wear dresses and skirts if they want to.

23)  What do you think the cutest thing in the world is? my cat when he's asleep and contorted into some odd position.

24)  Do you hate filling in pants questionnaires? not if the questions are interesting.

25)  What is your favourite item of jewellery? a large silver marquisite lizard ring I bought in Thailand

26)  Is there any item of clothing that you wear at any chance you get? My black velvety pyjama pants.  So comfy.

27)  Is there any fashion advice you would like to pass on to any goth? Just because it's black, well, that doesn't automatically make it a good thing for you to wear.

28)  What 3 words would you use to describe yourself? fun. multi-faceted. curious.

29)  What appeals to you most about Gothic fashion? The fact that it isn't designed for just one body type. It's very voluptugoth friendly, unlike the Gap.
