Hi! I am Shangri-La! You wanna know about me? Well, this is a bio, so I suppose you can read about my life if you like - I mean, why in the world wouldn't you want to? lol

Now, like I'm REALLY going to tell you my name, but I WILL let you know I am female and in high school. Here's the rest:

PERSONALITY: Gee, let's see - I like humor and angst to the extremes. Hehe, it clashes, doesn't it? I'm pretty much just a fun-loving girl who hangs out with her friends whenever possible and has a wandering mind. I loooooove to write - and I love reviews even more! I can be a little insecure, but basically, I feel good about myself. Umm...I wouldn't call myself a ditz, because I am NOT an airhead, and I do get good grades, but let's say I space out often and am not always quick to pick up on the details. I'd have to say my major fault is I am somewhat lazy and have sort of high expectations for other people. Plus, my lack of seriousness tends to annoy my family. If you've seen Fruits Basket, I am the female embodiment of Shigure. Woof!

LIKES: Writing, being with people, riding my four-wheeler, traveling, animals, muffins, acting like a complete goofball, anime, and lots of other things.

DISLIKES: Well, gee, let's see here... I hate bossy people, control freaks, perverts, jerks, being bored, house chores, cleaning, and getting sick. -_-

UPDATE ON LIFE: I AM SO LAZY! I haven't updated in foreeeeeeever... I need to get back to writing, update a little, whatever...

MUSIC: YOKO KANNO! I love her SOOOO much! I'm so into her work on Wolf's Rain and Cowboy Bebop. Haha - I also like Linkin Park, Our Lady Peace, Matthew Good Band, and various songs. 'I think I love you' by Less Than Jake is cool, and so is Pretty Girl by Sugarcult. I'm also in to old stuff - disco and the bangles and all that. All in all though, my favorite song at this time is 'Falling Apart' by Trust Company.

BOOKS: GARTH NIX IS THE BEST AUTHOR EVER! Sabriel, Abhorsen, Lirael, Mister Monday, Grim Tuesday, Drowned Wednesday, I love it all! And now I'm getting into Tales of the Otori...

The only thing I'll pry write about in fanfiction is anime and as far as that goes, my fave characters are as follows!

Wolf's Rain: I just looooove Toboe - such a cute little wolf boy. And Hige too - he's so cute and laid-back, and I love how he tries to flirt with his former enemy, Blue. ("Nah, I don't mind that you chased me. Girls usually run from me, so it was nice to be pursued for a change.")

Fruits Basket:Shigure

Full Metal Alchemist: Roy Mustang

Trigun: Wolfwood and Legato

Rurouni Kenshin: Sano and Soujiro and Aoshi

Weiss Kruez: Schuldich and Yohji and Akira (OVA) and Ken

Blue Sub no. 6: Hiyami

Outlaw Star: Harry

Inuyasha: Inuyasha and Shippo

Nadesico: Gai! What did he have to die! And in the THIRD episode! Oh, and I like Jun too.

Ok, I'll admit it, I like bishies, but what teenage girl doesn't? Huh?

Oooh! Fave quote that instantly springs to mind:

"Dude, the fry cook is freakin' out!"
-Some random guy from Nadesico

~~Projects in the works~~

OF DIETS, NIGHT LIGHTS, AND PACKING PEANUTS: Alright, this is a REALLY random Trigun story. I had retired it, but someone asked me to continue, so I guess I will. Basically, Knives puts Legato on a diet and pays the consequences, which are: Legato loses it, declares himself hot dog king, and starts his own snack company with the enlisted help of the other gun-ho guns and his faithful teddy bear. Hmm...I suppose it's worth mentioning that he also falls in love with Meryl...lol

CRESCENT MOON:

Ron is dead and his son, Angelo, lands in the Starwind house when he is injured. A space pirate, he wants to be just like his dad. Harry isn't aging because of his new, mechanical body, and when he comes to pick up his nephew, he is not kindly met - by anybody. Well, except for Gene's adopted daughter (really his niece), who instantly falls head over heels in love with him. He shares the feeling, but knows it can't work. See the problem? It's taking me a long to write this because NO ONE REVIEWS! In fact, this story is pretty much dead until I get at least a few reviews.

~~Stories to Come~~

DIE, YOU CHEWED MY WAFFLE:

A friend and I took a fight scene between Kenshin and Saito and added subtitles to the Japanese dialogue to make a hilarious movie. So, I'm gonna turn it into a fanfic!

BAD WAFFLES GIVE YOU NIGHTMARES:

The sequel to DIE YOU CHEWED MY WAFFLE. Yes, me and my friends made another movie using Kenshin. We're butchering the poor series, really.

I appreciate all reviews and suggestions, so read my stuff and tell me what you think!
