The weight upon your eyelids is dimes laid on your eyes.

Ganked from flakygoddess because when I feel melancholy, I do memes. Yeah, I dunno either.

List seven habits/quirks/facts about yourself.

1. I really despise Summer. I have fun for about a month, but then loneliness gets to me and I go extremely stir-crazy due to the whole "middle of nowhere" and "apiphobia" things that keep me inside. I used to think Autumn was may favorite season because of how beautiful it was, but now I suspect it's just the relief of getting back to school and people.



2. I got the name Lucia a long time ago. I was playing one of the SSX trilogy (I think it was the second one, SSX Tricky) and was enjoying dominating the high score board. I didn't want to put my real name or "Tanaka" since I was becoming disenchanted with that name anyway. I heard the Red Hot Chili Peppers' "The Zephyr Song" and was struck by how soothing and comforting the song was, mainly that chorus line- Fly away on my Zephyr. I used Zephyr as my new name.
   
   It was only later that I got into Greek mythology and learned of Zephyrus, the god of the gentle winds who was kind and helpful but also very jealous and occasionally spiteful. I love it more now.



3. When I'm stressed, I hug myself and get very monosyllabic.



4. I'm terrified of being alone and I worry about going off on my own in the world. This freaks me out because I'd love to find someone to live with, but I don't want to force my abandonment issues on anyone.



5. I talk to myself when I'm alone. I was left on my own a lot as a kid and to make up for not having many friends, I talked to characters I had read in my books or seen on television. I had quite long conversations with them.
   
   Occasionally, I do the same thing with the characters I write, usually the OCs like Ezirael or Asmodai.



6. I recently realized that I'm prejudiced against religion. Even if someone if a perfectly decent person, I'll think less of them if I learn they're religious. There are a few exceptions to this though.



7. I don't think I particularly excel at anything. Not fishing for compliments, just sayin'. There are better writers, vidders, artists- what have you. That makes keeping dreams alive hard, but... c'est la vie, yeah?

That's all, I think. I'm tired, no one is online, so I'm going to bed.

I'm sorry I'm not updating like I used to, LJ. I think I'll get better once I'm back in school. I'm just so delicate lately.

I have a hard time just whinging, even though it's my LJ and I'll cry if I want to. So, here's something you folk might actually care about.

I have a tendancy to babble a lot on possible projects. Just off the top of my head I can think of two Psych vids, one Sports Night vid, many fics, and a couple of fanmixes. If you've been reading a while, you may remember a few.

So, let's have a quick poll thing.

[Poll #1030749]
Feel free to go back a while, dredge up anything you're upset I didn't get around to. And don't bother with the pirate AU fic since that's going to be complete if only because I have a co-writer. It's more stressful to work with others, but it is very motivating as well.

Now, really, going to bed. Night, ya'll.

PS: This is a cool song, especially this line: Like a dead devil sailor washed up on the shore/With nothing of note but the old captain's coat. I love funky, weird rhymes like that. Best example of that is Maxell Edison, majoring in medicine. ♥
