Hello New York!

[xp_pixie]

Hi, I'm Megan Gwyn. I'm from Wales and I'll be living and attending classes here in New York at Professor X's school.
Umm... a bit about me... I like drawing, shoes... actually I mostly customize my own shoes by getting white ones and doodling on them with fabric markers. I'm not very good at people or faces, but I do lots of detailed design-type things.
My hair really is bright pink, which is OK because I don't have to look at it too often. I really like black and purple. I don't think I'm really that girly, so don't be scared off! I hate chick flicks. I don't really like shopping. 
I like all kinds of music, including some pop-type stuff but I mostly listen to punk, rock and alternative. I have  loads of files if anyone wants to swap music!
 
Anyway, see you at school!

PS: You can call me Pixie, but don't call me Meg!

Hey! Nice to meet you! I'm 15.

Right now I'm in this mid-90's kick with The Offspring and Radio Head, among others. What do you listen to?

You have a pet squirrel?

[x-squirrel.livejournal.com]

Well, he's more like my friend than my pet. He's watching me type right now. Sometimes he thinks he can type too, but he really can't.

I listen to a lot of stuff. Um... my brother calls all my stuff nerd rock, I guess.

Wow, I need to meet your squirrel friend!

Nerd rock? I don't think I've heard of it. What are some bands that you like?

[x-squirrel.livejournal.com]

He's really friendly. Well, to almost everyone. He doesn't like Mr. Laverne and I don't know why. Something to do with food and evil. (I don't think Mr. Laverne is really evil, that's just what Monkey Joe says.)

Nerd rock is uh... nerdy rock, I guess? Like They Might Be Giants and Jonathan Coulton.

Marius is just weird, not evil.

Monkey Joe says he's evil. It has to do with stealing food. And I think Mr. Laverne thinks Monkey Joe is evil so it's kinda confusing and stuff, you know?

Your squirrel is weird, not evil.

Monkey Joe says he's perfectly normal and he thinks you're weird and I'm not typing out the rest but he's really cranky and I'm sorry that he's cranky.

Dude, does your squirrel use squirrel profanity? SWEET. That's AWESOME.

[x-squirrel.livejournal.com]

He does kind of swear a lot. Especially if he's really cranky. And he's really, really cranky right now.

He's swearing a lot like right now. Literally.

[x-welshpixie.livejournal.com]

Wow...

[x-squirrel.livejournal.com]

He's just cranky. And stubborn. And doesn't like to be on a diet. (He's a bit pudgy. I feel safe typing it because he can't read.)

It could be that he's preparing for hibernation.

Starting in the fall and continuing into the winter, mammals are known to put on more weight. This extends to humans as well. The body requires more fuel to keep warm in the colder months, as well the extra weight provides insulation.

It could be that I've been reading too much biology tonight.

You can never read too much biology, I always say. But according to the boys I'm weird. :)
