LIKES uhh those kids they call musicians i mean they maybe called mindless misery but jeesh! who knows!?, that thing that floats ever so perfectly to your ears-- legend has it it's name's music, small venues with lots of kids, dancing around to random bands, party bands-- or bands where you can actually dance to their music ( SEE: FOXY SHAZAM! ), that idea of falling in love, meeting new people, high fives, pokemon, myspace, twitter ( yes i tweet, damnit ), cussing, body modification, being right, when everything goes well, band practice, live shows, acting like the goof i am, night time, day time, sunset, sunrise, bull dogs, pitbulls, dobermans, daschunds, video cameras, filming people, dancing in the rain, dancing anywhere, moshing, being one of the boys yet being one of the girls, partying, singing, screaming, pigsquealing, plaid, writing on my arms, headbanging, simple songs with pretty words, saturdays, public parks, TWLOHA, GWSR, getting my nails done, oranges, bananas, lollipops, candy, energy drinks, cereal, glasses, synthesizers, shorts, johnny cupcakes, the acacia strain, your face.
DISLIKES when things aren't a certain way, dry skin-- it's irritating for me, really slutty girls ( i.e: a guy walks in and they practically drop to their knees-- ew much!? ), the fact i say 'dude, like, woah, legit, and um' way too much, throat issues, iced tea, coffee, when nothing is on el television-o when i wanna watch it, tooth aches, runny noses, illness in general, flying, root canals, when people brag about how screwed up they got the night prior, bright lights in face, really hot food, peaches, not being able to take a shower, too much makeup, country music, when it's so cold that i feel like my body is icing over, really bad guitar riffs, stereotypical noise, nails on the chalkboard, tiny dogs ( unless they are daschunds ), facism, racism, conspiracy theories ( they get me really paranoid ), peer pressure, horrible promoters, really cold winds on cold days, really girly men, when you can't tell that a guy is a guy or a girl is a girl-- that's irritating.

PERSONALITY
Everyone knows someone like this. The short busy bee that's always keeping themselves occupied with something. Always making sure everyone is okay. Zip, zip, zip. Talen runs around.. Doing jobs here, getting money there. Always occupied.. Always. Taly hates not having anything to do.. Out of all the kids who have no idea what they want to do.. Talen knows, Talen has plans.. This girl is stubborn, so she will get there if it kills her. It may, but it will be so worth it, and she won't let anyone deter her from her goal.
Any 'awwwww that's so cute' moments you've heard of are probably brought on by Taly. She is one of those scheming little girls, but she isn't scheming in the bad way. If she finds out two people like each other, than she is like the three fates. She also has a legion of friends who help her out. Never tell her you have a crush, because trust Taly... She will find out if he likes you too, and if so? YOU WILL HAVE A CINDARELLA MOMENT. Tally believes every girl deserves their cindarella, fairy tale moment. Even if they don't believe they exist. If someone hurts you, don't tell Talen either.. See, she believes in justice.. She will even the score, pranking them in any humiliating way she can. As much as she is a nice girl.. Even nice girls have a bad streak.
Taly is not a 'straightedge' kid, because the fact of labelling yourself is sheer stupidity on so many levels. She doesn't do drugs, she doesn't drink alcohol unless she is a parties or something... And she doesn't sleep around with every guy she meets. She has self respect. Just because you have self respect though, doesn't mean you can't have fun.. Which is all Taly is about. Good times and funny moments. Another thing the eighteen year old is known for is dancing randomly. If there is good music playing, she will dance. Which is why she goes to shows, she loves to dance, she loves to sing.. Life is a party, and it ends eventually... Live it up though while you can.
Love is an amazing topic for Taly, because she just loves love. She likes the idea of it, and tries to prove it to skeptics that love does exist. They just need to be able to realize that it does. Talen believes every human heart desires to love and be loved in return. It's universal. Everyone does want this, unfortunately most people seem to ruin it be it by lust, or just fear. Unfortunately for Taly, is that most people because of this are annoyed by her. Another thing about her. She's affectionate. Her friends all know this, she gives hugs like they are going out of style.. She tickles her friends, kisses them on the cheek during pictures, covers their eyes with her hands and says 'guess who'?. The girl loves her friends, and is just.. Affectionate.
What would humanity be without their faults though? Taly unfortunately compares herself to everyone else.. Holding them all to a higher standard.. Regardless of how much she's all ready done. Another thing is she gets angry just like everyone else.. It isn't as explosive as other people's but she is known for getting angry over silly boys who try and ruin her romantic plans to try and get two people hooked up. For her everything has to be perfect. She has to try and make everything picturesque. Unfortunately, what she has yet to realize.. Is life does not work that way. Not now, not ever. Unfortunately, the only one who she holds to such a high, unrealistic standard.. Is herself.
Oh yeah, she's a perfectionist. Everything needs to be perfect, well.. Not perfect, they just need to be a certain way. Usually, she believes she's the only one who can get it exactly the way she wants.. So it's starting to get to the point where she's burning out at a rapid rate.

HISTORY
It was May 22nd that a scream filled a hospital room in northern Denver, a newborn with copper red hair. Forever to be named Talen, why? There was no honest reason, other than that the woman that was her mother.. Adored the name. James Morrison was no where to be found. It seemed that he had abandoned his girlfriend at the time, fear of commitment. He wouldn't enter her life until she was sixteen, and even then. Our fair Talen would have to seek him out.
For the first four years of her life, she lived like an average kid. Ran around, played with kids. Her mother took diligent care of her. Until one night, she woke up screaming. As she ran around the house, to anyone else.. The house would seem extremely tidy, very well kept and just a nice place. All the copperhaired girl saw was bugs crawling over everything, and not butterflies. Spiders, centipedes, preying mantises, beetles, cockroaches, termites, and maggots among other things. As her mother walked closer to her.. She saw her mother, but covered in the similar things. Her breathing became quick, and the girl couldn't stop crying.. Until finally she passed out from exhaustion. She woke up in her room, no bugs, the light from her window poured into her pastel covered room. This continued to happen for three weeks, then her mother took her to the hospital.
The doctor was young, and extremely inexperienced. While he was writing a prescription for one drug, he gave her another.. The end result happened when two medications mixed. At the age of eight she had her first seizure. It was in the middle of recess. She started shaking violently, her eyes rolling up into her head. The kids from then on called her a freak, and she ended up getting home schooled from the teasing. This lack of being social ended up bringing her into depression, in which she became quite heavy. At sixteen her uncle died, and after much searching for her father-- she met him, and he disowned her.. That's when she decided she was getting her life in check. Over the summer when she decided to lose all her weight, she ended up joining a band who just lost their vocalist. Well, the vocalist left, and they decided to use her.
As they began to play more shows, she began to change how she looked. Dressing out of the norm, and dying her hair. They began to play with touring acts that happened to stop in Colorado, and it just appeared to be so very surreal to her. It was like first she was a nobody, now she's suddenly become someone? Whiskey tango foxtrot!? Ah well, stranger things had happened... Besides, if this was gonna simmer down.. It would have all ready. Now she's the girl that is living the life people have only dreamed of, and she's loving every minute of it. Legit, nothing can stop this picky little girl from living her dreams. It's her and Mindless Misery against the world, and right now? She can live with that.

THE MAGIC WORD - admin edit -
ROLEPLAY EXAMPLE Tch, ruin him. Of all the things Lyndy thought about Doltyn, never once did she want to fuck him over. Sorry, she wasn't a rat. The girl wouldn't have been accepted so easilly into the scene if she was. A laugh emitted from those pierced lips at the blond's confused reaction. "Handbasket, Doltyn, hand basket," The girl enunciated each the word with a smile, "And believe me, you don't want to know. Free time makes you think of weird shit, seriously. Let's not even start on my whole cows with guns thing..." Yeah, Lyndy's brain happened to be very weird, and extremely crazy. Biting her lower lip the girl glanced around. Noticing some people were going "what the fuck is she talking to him for?" It wasn't as if she could blame them for their confusion, she understood exactly what they were questioning. What was little miss edge doing with the most infamous druggie in the Los Angeles music scene. What was even more shocking was that they weren't at each other's throats.
To be honest, she didn't really want him to vent to get to know more about him. Sometimes the easiest person to vent out your feelings to was someone you barely knew.. That way-- You didn't really give a damn about their opinions, or their judgements. They would just listen, and go back to their life.. While you felt better getting it off of your chest. "Really, heh. Odd, the only reason I asked is because you look like you've seen way better days. To be honest, you look like your down and out," The five foot four girl commented, shaking her head slightly. Lyndy gave him a confused look before laughing softly, "This is what I hate, everyone thinks straightedge kids are like the ones who go way way way on the deepend." The girl brushed her hair out of her face as she began to explain, "Okay, there are two classifications of a 'straightedge' person," With that, the girl held up two fingers, pointing to one she sighed, "There is militant, which are like... The guys who preach, beat the shit out of drug dealers and druggies, say that we should bring prohibition and all that back, and then..." The girl then pointed to her other finger, "There is posi, or positive straightedge. They are the kids who see it as more of a choice, like being vegan or... Anything else for that matter. It's a lifestyle, and it's a choice, and it's personal as hell. It's not someone you can force on someone-- Which would be my classification. Posi's and Militants are known to get at eachother's throats.. Seeing as militant kids want change now, and positives know better."
With a small laugh she grinned, "And that is straightedge one oh one for ya Doltyn," Yeah the explanations were always well, fun yet boring? If that made any sense whatsoever. As he asked if she needed to vent, the girl shrugged slightly, "It's the usual, dumb models who are denser than a log and can't pose for shit, crappy clothing designers who think their shit don't stink, and nearly falling over people on my skateboard... Yeah, it's been a typical day." Oh yeah, that's Lyndy for you.
Brushing it off as absolutely nothing..
