Beau. 21; New Zealand.
Just one among billions; living vicariously through the fictional, trying to hold it all together (sometimes, often, failing), constantly growing but not necessarily up. I'm forever swinging from extremes, waiting in the in-between.
bits and bobs
Beaurey, but you can call me Beau.
21, New Zealand, a mix of Cambodian, French-Portuguese, Mongolian and Vietnamese.
2012 is my fourth year @ university; I’m studying a Bachelor of Arts in English Honours.
ABOUT ME
+ Superficially: I like soy chais, large round earrings, high-waisted skirts, chocolate of any kind and indian ink.
- I love Tumblr but I make sure to keep a balance - my RL is also very important to me.
+ I don’t have much in the way of family (except my sister who I love more than anyone in the world), so my friends are my lifeline.
- I’m the usual mess of cliches: screwing up lots of the time and forever fumbling my way through things, failure is that big looming thing in the dark that scares me at night, I’m riddled with insecurities and sometimes I lie in bed and think this world is so big, the chance that I’ll ever find someone who will be able to make me feel anything worthwhile is slim to none.
+ I think with the right side of my brain: I’m very creative, and like to draw and write as much as I can. Often this results in terrible, melancholic poetry when I’m depressed :S
- I like love stories and romances in the books I read and TV shows/movies I watch, but I’m very cynical about them in real life. I’ve been in like more times than I can count but I honestly don’t think I’ll ever be in love.
+ I’m loyal, fiercely caring and put my whole heart into things. But I’m also stubborn, sensitive and if angered (though this rarely happens), it’s unlikely I’ll ever forgive the person who inflicted the damage. Often I feel things far too deeply but put on a veneer of normality that I feel fools almost everyone who knows me. I hope that one day I won’t feel the need to do this anymore.
- My askbox will always be open for any and all questions. I feel like I always make the first move to talk to people here because I’m such a ~lurker, so I really appreciate it when others approach me first :)
FANDOM STUFF
Harry Potter.
First and forever OTP: Ron/Hermione.
Unpopular opinion: I don’t like Harry/Ginny, never have. Also will never, ever ship Harry/Hermione, EVER. It’s possibly the only ship I truly hate with a passion.
Unusual pairing: Draco/Ginny, a very close second to R/Hr.
The Vampire Diaries.
I will always choose Delena.
Caroline is shippable with almost anyone; I love her with Matt, Tyler, Stefan (guilty pleasure otp!) and most recently, Klaus.
Pretty Little Liars.
Filled with ridiculously pretty people I like to graphic the shizz out of, particularly Troian and Ashley.
Shipwise: Montlaurentis/Jaria (Jason/Aria) and Wrencer (Wren/Spencer).
Gossip Girl.
Chuck/Blair used to be my life Seasons 1 and 2, which is so weird to think about now when all I care about is Dair. HUMPHREY AND WALDORF OWN MY LIFE OK, deal with it.
