PARABOLICAL GRAFFITI

I'm off for the next three days. It's actually a relief get those days off, AND to be paid tomorrow. Now here's to hoping they don't call me in.

wish I'd quit having those dreams though.

[Micah]

Hey, Micah, thanks for fixing my computer.

[/filter]

So there's rabid dogs out there, huh? Sounds a little too familiar for my tastes. I hope they're not skinless.

[Heather]

Hey, how's it going?

I'm at this cafe, because my damn computer has a bunch of viruses. Anyone know how I can fix this? I'm not going to pay $100 to get it fixed.

This place is insanity!

I had a dream about my brother.

Weird.

I think I like this. I'm not helpless.. I can't be helpless, anymore. It's almost like it has filled this void in my life. I didn't have anything, or anyone before. I was dead afterall. But now I've got protection, and... It's given me life, so how can I deny it the same privilege?

It can be controlled, Eddie said so. That alone means I've got to give it a chance.. right? Sure it might want to hurt friends, and it has (and I'm really still sorry for that), but I would never, and I've got that will power on my side atleast.

I just need to be strong. I think. It's dependant on me, so why not be dependant on it in return? I can't get rid of it so I have to accept it.

So no more pills and loading myself up with work to keep awake. No being in at night by 5pm. I'm just going to live life like I did before I died, just.. with a slightly complicated side issue. I'm going to be the old, hip Gwen I used to be.

I think I just need to start over, with certain aspects of my life atleast. Hi everyone, my name's Gwen Stacy. I'm not crazy, just complicated. I've got the steady job working for the Hardy Foundation to prove it. I'm originally from New York and attended ESU for chemical engineering and genetics. Growing up I was a closet nerd, and still am. All my life I've wanted to be a model but that probabl won't ever happen now.

I'd appologize for everything I've done but, that'd be too big of a post. Just, know that it's not really me and I'd never hurt anyone who doesn't deserve it.
I'm not a monster.
Maybe a little intoxicated at the moment.

(ooc: reposting because I didn't like what I had the first time)

I'm beginning to think that I need to interact with more people here. I've been so busy with I don't know many of you and I'm certain that many of you don't know me. In a city like this one, I think that it would be wise for those of us who are capable of being friendly and polite to interact with one another, don't you? Stay away from the bad things and instead focus on the good. I certainly can't sit around and claim that I am the good that you need in your life, but at the very least, I hope that I can become a friend.

I thought about telling you all a few things about myself, but I decided to do something different instead. There were a few surveys floating around the office today (I was applying for work) and I decided to fill one out, just to entertain myself a little. Feel free to do the same. It may be a good way for us to start talking!

( Survey. )

Ugh. I feel like I'm dying. From the inside out. I haven't been to work in two days, haven't eaten in one, and haven't really been out of bed since this morning. This isn't exactly good, is it? *curls up and contemplates writing out her last will and testament*


I miss him so much, I think I've made myself sick.



[ooc: Strike can be hackable by friends.]

I don't miss the old man one bit, but his training has come in handy for me. Didn't think I'd have to be dealing with anything here, but I got encountered by a couple of young vampires. Staked them, but god damn were they ever fucking annoying! Think their downfall was that they kept bragging about how great, and powerful, and immortal they were.

Would anybody recommend me a good bar to go to?

There has to be something interesting to do here. I'm getting rather bored at moments when I'm not busy.

Are there any book stores nearby? Or anything to keep me busy?

I'm starting to get insomnia again. This is never good.

Sam / Dean / Mary.
We're going shopping. All four of us.

So, I noticed that there have been some new arrivals. Please allow me to introduce myself. My name is Damien Thorn. I am the CEO of Thorn Industries. And in my spare time, I donate food to the homeless shelters in the city.

If anyone needs a job, we're still hiring. There are plenty of positions available. Secretary, guard duty, assembly line, anything. Feel free to set up an appointment and I'll see if we can hire you on the spot. Ohh, and it pays well too.

So there's quite a few beaches here. I guess they wouldn't be so bad, but I absolutely hate water. I mean, I'll take showers, and drink water, but I hate being in it. Funny, because I don't mind boating. Weird, huh?

[Rikku]

I hope the sleeping arrangements weren't bad. And, listen, I'm sorry if it wasn't all that much. This is all I can afford for now.

I think I'm almost settled into this place. It's going to take me sometime to get used to a busy city like this, after growing up in that small town. But, hey, I found a decent apartment, and I have some job prospects lined up.

I did run into some...well, I guess you'd call them vampires or something. They a common occurrence around here?

I guess Los Angeles is going to be my stop for now. I just came from the northeast, a small town called Shepherd's Glenn, next to Silent Hill.

If anyone can give me directions to a decent hotel you will have my fullest gratitude.
