About Me

Hi, my name is Laura! Nice to meet you... ^_^
 
I signed up to this site because it's so difficult making friends in real life without talking to them online first, but there's limited ways to do that.
 
Most sites are filled with people who only want to sleep around with people they don't care about, and start a conversation with "Hey sexy", with no respect for the person they're talking to. =[ As soon as someone says that, you know they don't care about you as a person, they only want to get in your knickers.
 
I don't like talking to people like that, I like talking to nice people. =D Who want to talk about how they are and their views on life, who share a passion for computers. If you're on this site, you've obviously ticked that box. =P
 
I can be random, I'm a chocoholic with a big sweet tooth, but I try not to over-do it. =P I love Sims 3 but I've been playing it on and off. I also quite like Atelier Rorona: Alchemist of Arland (it's an amine game my friend introduced me to). I also quite like using proper grammar when I can help it. Geeky acronyms are a must, but things like mispellings due to laziness of having a type a whole extra letter or two, omg =O, are just plain stupid. Shorter versions of words commonly used in conversation are fine. Like "cos", which is technically spelt " 'cause ", but that actually does take a lot longer.
 
PS. I just realised that free accounts can't send messages. =( So if you send a message, I have no idea if I can reply or not, maybe I just can't send the first message.

Um... I can have my funny moments, but a lot of the time if I try to be funny it fails, lol. My sense of humour is confused, I don't always understand jokes that other people do. My weakness is chocolate.

I think my body type is between skinny and normal. I'm not very skinny, but I'm not quite normal size either, just a bit under. My friends say I'm skinny, but the truth is my legs aren't so much =/, and I do have a bit of lower tummy fat; called the pouch, but it's not that bad.
 
I'm British- English, white. My skin is paler than most people, but I'm not REALLY white, like this screen, lol. My hair is light brown fading to dark brown/ black, due to dying my hair black about a year ago with a dye that was meant to last no more than a month, but it lasted until I've grown it out enough to have it cut off; not even Head and Shoulders budged it, only faded it very slightly. Can't wait to have my natural colour back.

Some College

(A greek school I attended between the ages of 5 and 8 that I don't remember the name of), Ferry Lane Primary School in London, Holden Lane High School in Stoke-on-Trent, Endon High School in Endon near Stoke-on-Trent (and Newcastle-under-Lyme College in Newcastle-under-Lyme; although that's not a school lol).

Unemployed- Job seeking

Office for National Statistics- 2011 Census, Wolseley UK- Plumb Center, Marks & Spencer

I was born in London. I'm half Greek from my mum's side. She was born in Cyprus and my sister was born in Crete cos we used to live there for 5 years, but we left when she was 6 months old so she doesn't know any Greek at all. I learnt Greek from my mum and at school there, but I've forgotten most of it over 12 years since moving back to England; I should have accepted those Greek classes my mum offered me so I wouldn't forget it, but I insisted I wouldn't. -.-
 
My family consists of my mum, sister, Cassie the dog, Nutmeg the hamster, Candy the fish, and my boyfriend. My sister's name is Sara, she's 13. My dad is long gone, probably somewhere in London, but that's a long and sad story.

Playing PC and console games, mainly Sims 3. =D Playing on my laptop watching YouTube. I love Shane Dawson, Onision, Totally Sketch and many others. I also love listening to music, mainly on YouTube cos you can search for almost anything. My favourite genres are pop and country. And my favourite artists consist of Taylor Swift, Kelly Clarkson, Miley Cyrus, Jessie J, Ke$ha, and Pink.

Mainly involves people I've met online, at college, Uni, or people who've introduced me.

People who like me for me and don't want me to change to suit their wants in a person, they like video games but not to an obsessive level, preferably on Wii, PS3 or Kinect, though I'm not into shooting or racing games. It's hard to describe the kind of person I want to meet because people are so different. But the main people I get along with best are geeks, so I guess I'm off to a good start by signing up to here. =P

I have a boyfriend that I live with. He's a nerd and I love him to bits. =) Oh, and we're both vegetarian, he converted me and I'm never going back. I strongly believe in ghosts but he thinks they're hallucinations or imagination or something. O_o

Alcohol is fine when consumed every now and then, not every single week or day. And I see no need to get "completely hammered", there's no need to make your kidneys fail sooner than they would normallu, as long as you're drunk then it's done it's job. I only drink until I'm drunk then I stop. But everyone has different opinions.

Dieting is sometimes necessary to lose unwanted weight or fat. It's technically unhealthy going on a diet, because your body has to adjust to consuming much less calories than before and go hungry for longer than usual, but the result is usually much healthier than carrying on with the previous unhealthy lifestyle.
 
The best cure is always prevention, so to avoid ever having to diet, just eat healthy in the first place before it's too late. My diet choice, which technically isn't a diet but more of a lifestyle choice, is vegetarianism. Not pescatarian, not vegan, VEGETARIAN. Lacto-ovo vegetarian to be exact. So don't ask me if I eat fish, eggs, or drink milk. Research them if you don't understand and you'll know. I've told you everything you need to know if you have the right knowledge to understand the terms.

Illegal drugs and big no. However caffeine, prescription drugs and over the counter medicines which may have legal drugs in them are fine, as long as the person taking them are using them for the purpose they were intended, and no addicted to them.

Fashion isn't important to me. I couldn't care less if I'm wearing the "latest trends" or whatever, I wear what I like and tough if it's not "cool" to other people. As long as it fits, is clean, and looks decent, not hideously strang, it doesn't matter if it's 10 years old or 1 day old.

Exercise is important to lead a healthy lifestyle, I myself only cycle and to be honest that's the only exercise I get. I like exercising, I just don't always have time for it.

Hygiene is a tricky thing. Everyone knows the rules of how we should do it, but sometimes we break those rules because we're lazy or don't have time. I don't brush between meals and I don't floss, I've tried it and it made my gums bleed, no thanks... I shower before I go out, but if I'm not seeing anyone for a bit, forgive me if I don't want to shower. I'll shower later when it starts to bother me though.

Kids are so adorable, especially babies, and one day I hope to become a mother, but right now is too soon.

I love animals. My favourite pets are dogs and cats, I prefer larger animals, but I'm fine with small animals except snakes and arachnids. I'm scared of spiders...

My boyfriend loves politics, 2 of my ex's did joint degrees in it, I however don't really understand it. =[

I'm an atheist, and that's that. Don't try to convince me otherwise, you will fail epically.

I don't like it when people smoke as it's unhealthy and there isn't any real benefit except killing yourself faster and calming yourself a bit, but the side affects extremely outweigh the benefit. And no, smoking is NOT cool.
