hello, the name's, elizabeth allison cooper
but people tend to call me, liz or lizzie
I turned , 20
on , march 14th
so that means I've been attending, UCLA school of theater, film & television
when the days over i like me some , boys, but girls are fun for a laugh too

I've seen a palace in London,
I've seen a castle in Wales,

[/i][/size][/color][/ul][/font]

well, my hair is, Really long and dark brown, almost black. Cut into a fringe and slightly layered

and I love my eyes, they're, dark as well, brown again

and my skin colors this really cool, kind of pale pinkish colour, not quite the english rose but not very tanned either

mainly because I'm , a london girl

I measure up to , 5'6, not short but not too tall

no Seattle Sutton's for me ! the scale says , just over 9 stone

but it's kind of cool that I have
,[/colour]a scar on my upper left arm, that was an intersting night, and two studs in each ear. I also have unusually large pupils alot of the time, but thats another matter entirely.

and my style blows yours away , I mean, i know i wear alotof black, but i think i have the femminime/masculine balance down to a tee, not many people coule wear a cotton summer dress with a leather jacket and a pair of dr martens. I guess thats me, a bit indie, a bit rocky, plenty of black and good solid boots.

so over - all ,
My hair is long, a bit like a little girls hair. You know how small kids always seem to grow their hair as long as possible? But always for no apparent reason, and witht he thick fringe to peep out from under like a puppy, well thats what my hair looks like basically. It's also pretty scruffy, at my worst i wont brush it for days at a time and then i have to take a hair brush into the shower to repair the damage. But when i'm taking care i keep it quite straight, it looks better that way.

My eyes are dark brown, very dark, but in the way that you can't really see i have pupils unless your up close. I mean, sometimes it's a little more obvious than others, but that doesn't count. They often tend to look a bit lighter in the sun, most peoples do with a bit of light shinging into them i guess. And if we're not concentrating on colour then i suppose i have moderatly big eyes. I mean, they aren't anime massive but they aren't extra specially tiny either.

Being a brit means that i need to be abit careful in the sun, if i'm not then I just burn, but witha bit of effort I can effect a light tan, although my defualt mode is pale and pasty. Not even english rose but there you go, can't have everything. It has to be said my complexion could be better, but when you choose the path of the dangerously insane, aka addict, then somethings got to give.

I'm lucky to be of a reasonably normal build, i mean, I'm not super skinny, but i don't have to worry too much about what i eat. So i guess i'm what you could call average. Got a few curves but not all that over the top. 36-28-34. But that's another matter entirely. I'm also about 9 stone, which makes me roughly right for my BMI although how the hell i maintain it i don't know. I suppose my body doesn't fancy dying yet.

I suppose if i was going to give myself a quick head to toe appraisal it would go something like this. A tall, slim girl, long dark hair and eyes to match. A kind of distracted look as thought there's always something slightly more interesting going on over your shoulder and pinkish lips that cod be lipstick or just rising blood. Maybe a what could be considered a less than conventional style of dress, but not as utterly far out as some. Just treading on the borderline between pretty and stylish and just a bit, "intersting" as it were.

Make up and hair like war paint and battle dress, with thick dark rims around the eyes and when its on the lipstick is bight red. Tattered, tangled and more often than not, messy just-got-out-of-bed hair, like I got dragged through a hedge backwards or perhaps just haven't yet found the time to shower, one of the other. And of course hte black and crupled clothes, they often look like they've been slept in as well, or at least artfulyl abandoned on the floor over night.

I guess i just don't look like your regular girl, although I've always fitted in well film peopel, i guess they expect all the arty types to be eccentric and oddly dressed. In the same way all sporty types should have perfect gear and wear as little as possible. Thats my take on it at least.

but people say I look like , allison mosshart

but I'd rather wake up beside you
and breathe that ol' familiar smell,

[/size]
^*[/size] personage - - - - - [/blockquote][/right]

I love, music, film, theater, the arts, being out of it, sunny days, love, new boots, having money, fresh nail varnish, incense, zippo lighters, poetry, writing, expression, the great out doors, bathroom floors being in bed.

but I really despise, the cops [when they're after me], death, destruction, mindless violence, pain, loss, jealousy, bitching, boken guitar strings, spiders, insincerity, liars, myself.

I personally think I'm pretty good at, being a first class prick if i'm honest. I can slo hold my alchohol well, and sound/act sober to an extent, but they aren't really proper strengths. I guess more conventional ones are that im usually ok around other people, and i'm eloquent enough to express myself without resorting to the word, like, every other word. I'm good at self censoring infron of people i know i'll offend, but i'll swear like a trouper given the oppurtunity. Im passionate about my studies, and as often is possible i throw myself fully into them, trying to make up for when i slip up.

though I should really work on
, quite how often i'm intoxicated, i'd rather not get to thirty and realise there are large chunks of my life i can't remember at all. Although i dont easily loose my temper when i do it's usually quite OTT, and i'll jsut explode at some poor unsuspecting person over my coffee when infact thereal problem is that dad rang me up and annoyed me two weeks ago. I can also be a self preservative liar, im not saying that excuses me, but at least i try not to as often as i can i suppose. I'm also good at being an absoult bitch behind someones back if hte mood takes me, which is ironic because i hate bitching and lying in other people. So i guess im also a major hypocrite.

people tend to tell me I'm ,

[/i][/size][/color] because, i'm prepared to do things other people wouldn't, sometimes in a good way, like challenging a perspective or a stereotype, and in a bad way, like proving the story book notion you can climb down a drainpipe is possible.

outgoing[/font] because, i'll talk to jsut about anyone, and about anthing when the mood takes me, i'm not a shy girl when im not feeling a bit of paranoia. Remember, every stranger is just a friend you havent met yet.

addictive[/font] because, aparently there's jsut "something about me". Personally i've always said addict would be far more accurate, but thats down to personal opinion, i suppose it's because im a bit cheery, and chatty and usually smiling. And then theres this element that i let my mind ownder like no-one else i know, which makes hte conversation more interesting.[/ul][/font]

but basically, I'm , an addict. I wasn't always like this but it's quite all consuming, so it does account for a large part of my personality at the moment. But i suppose addict isn't your personality, its part of who you are. So if yout ake away that it gives you the real me, right?

I'm a fairly giving person i'd like to think, give my last dollar to a homeless guy then tell him my life story alot of the time, sometimes i get paranoid, there the times when i walk through town twitching a bit and jumping at shadows. But most of the time im okay. I like people, and i like talking to them. Everyone has a story to tell and especially if its someone you dont know, its a whole new story isn't it? I guess thats my outlook alot of the time, kinda, happy go lucky, lets see where it takes us, never lost just a new adventure. All that crap. Makes me sound a bit like one of those creepy summer camp workers, Every days an adventure kids!

I like talking and i like to listen as well. I may not be the best problem solver and i can't really hand out any decent advice, but if you want someone just to listen and only mak a few dazed and innaproriate comments then i guess i'm your girl. I mean, don't knock it i can occasionally come out with decent advice, but if im being honest then much beyond, "you're better off without him, he was a tosser anyway" and its stretching me a bit. But i try, i try very hard sometimes.

I'm outgoing im a people person, although i don't much like myself it has to be said. I suppose thats why i like to keep busy, other people form a welcome distraction to real life. Or as Bill Hicks once said this ride we think is real life. It's quite funny, shut me in a room on my own im in tears and filled with self hatred, ranting, you know, the whole shebang. But if you take me to a party then i'm the life and soul, buoyed up on liquid courage, or in my case, illegal courage. But no-one cares in the end, its all a distraction afterall.

I definatly wear my heart on my sleeve, if i like someone i don; tend to hesitate to tell them, but then on the flip side if i don't like someone i'm pretty vocal about that as well. I suppose i've got some enemies because of it, not to mention even more from when i'm living on credit, but mostly i'd like to think im easy to get along with. I know i love to easily, because i still pretty much feel the pain of every break up I've ever had. Makes me sound like a silly little kid but maybe thats what i am at heart, never really grew up properly.

I think i have quite a flawed personality really, i've definatly got a bit of a penchant for self destruction at any rate. I mean, you have to be a certain kind of person to be a junkie, but even if it wasn't for that i'd probably have engineered my own downfall years ago. I think i was born that way, accident prone, that kinda jazz. The beauty is in the breakdown and all that. Some people i guess are like fireworks, pretty while they're around and dangerous as well, but only ever meant to go out with a bang. Thats me, im a firework, a firework careering wildly towards the window.
