Name: Ashley
Birthday: 9/13/1988
Gender: Female

Interests: Yeah, well...I love band. Music is amazing. Whether it's playing or listening, it's my passion. I lub improv acting, but acting is pretty cool in general. I love the 80's. Fun times. Sometimes I attempt to sing. Alone. In my car. When only random strangers are watching. I love old people.
Expertise: I'm a major band nerd. Yeah for percussion. I'm, "That Crazy Mallet Player." I love music. It's amazing what music can do to a person. I listen to everything from metal to Disney songs...throw in some Gilligham and you've got the grand prize. But, first and foremost in my life is Christ. I'm really good at balking tackwards, also. I'm pretty much the best I know.

This is probably worth reading.

It's been since before I turned 18 that I've posted.

Pretty sure I've bought my fair share of cigarettes and porn.

...joke.

So much has changed. So many things have happened. I've definitely lost ignorance over the past year and gained insight. They say that ignorance is bliss, but I'm not gonna lie, the loss of it is bittersweet.

Relationships. Ugh and ah! Just recently got out of a not-so-healthy relationship and moved on to another healthy one. I'm super stoked about this, actually. It took me a while, but I made the right decision. Considering the way my ex reacted lately, my faith in the fact that I did the right thing has been reinforced. Considering the way that my current boyfriend has proven himself amazing, my faith in the fact that I did the right thing has been reinforced. I am happy. I feel liberated from stress and drama, and I am excited to see where this takes me.

As I look to my right, I can see my graduation cap and gown. Wow. The fact that I only have barely over a month left in the place in which I have built so much security in scares me and completely excites me at the same time. Highchool absolutley flew by. One moment I'm a scared little freshman trying to fit in, and the next I'm sitting at my computer reflecting upon the fact that in a little over a month, I'll be completely out of my comfort zone. Insane.

The next month will be a stressful and exciting one. I have lead role in our spring play. We're doing Father of the Bride. I'm stoked! It's just like the movie, and I am the mother of the bride. So all you adoring Ashley Carpenter fans should definitely come see it. ;)

I also have an amazingly hard marimba solo that I don't quite have learned that stresses the crap out of me.

Stress stress stress! Ugh.

Just a hint- when you are feeling stressed-watch Jim Gaffigan. He never fails to make me laugh. I love that man.

I'm also playing with the WSU steel drum band. I'm pretty excited about this, too. I really can't wait. I'm officially attending WSU next year as a percussion major. They are in fact giving me more money than I need for music and acedemic scholarships, so I am actually getting paid a lot to go to college, which I'm completely excited about, seeing as I am poor. Extremely poor.

And I have senioritis. Like, hardcore. You underclassmen think you have senioritis. Just wait until you have one month left.

But I love you all, whomever may be reading this. And I miss a lot of your faces. I hope I don't lose you after graduation, for you all have played a role in shaping me into who I am today. Even if it is the littlest hello or the longest lat night conversation. I love you all.

-Ash

I am happy.

Leah Wilson works with me, now.

School is proving itself to be fun.

I loved 1984.

I met a cool, new boy. I like him a lot.

Drumline is coming along.

I love you.

So, school tomorrow.

Last night was an amazing way to end the summer, I do declare.

My summer went out with a bang.

Please allow me to introduce myself.

Hey. I'm Ashley.

I hate it when all of the sugar is at the bottom of the tea, making the last sip surprisingly sweet and crunchy.

I am pretty messy...you should see my car.

I love music and how it can move a person.

My hand-eye coordination is above average.

Stars fascinate me. I love star-gazing.

My socks never match.

I can do more tricks with my tongue than your dog can do.

I love to watch quality stand-up comedy.

I am pretty content with knowing that I will probably be single until college.

I like to think of myself as witty.

My guilty pleasure is thrifting.

I am a very, very visual learner.

On warm, summer nights when the full moon is out, you could probably find me laying on my car in some park.

I don't drink. And yes, I have been at places where there was lots of alcohol.

I am confident in the person that I am, but I am self-conscious in other ways.

I love foreign people and foreign countries.

I am a really quick learner.

My story about how I learned Santa isn't real is rather...interesting.

Life scares me and excites me at the same time.

I have never had a worthwhile relationship.

I love words because they express what we cannot without them.

I have a huge heart and I like to help people.

I can be very defensive.

I like to read a good book.

I only like Red Bull when it is freezing cold.

I never get enough sleep.

I like to have intelligent conversations with intelligent people.

I like Harry Potter. Shut up.

I am too good at pretending nothing is wrong.

I can procrastinate hardcore.

I am full of personality.

I love all things vintage.

I don't like to do things that I am not good at.

I like all things art.

I really, really like to laugh. If you can make me laugh, we'll get along wonderfully.

I love my friends. That sounds so lame, but I really do.

It takes me a lot to open up to a person.

I hate how stupid I was.

Speaking publically doesn't scare me a bit.

I am one heck of a perfectionist.

I like facial hair on men. Weird...I know. But I like facial hair. On men. Men, only. I don't like facial hair on women...like that black lady at the Super Target.

I love exotic foods and I will try any weird food once. I love sushi.

I tend to attract guys who I am not interested in at all.

I don't take crap from people, but I am level-headed.

I hate unneeded commas.

I am not superificial at all.

I like to go off on random tangents with people.

I am pretty clumsy (not to be confused with cumsy...that would be tragic) at times

I am attracted to bigger guys. Not fat guys, but bigger guys. It's weird.

My milkshake doesn't bring all the losers to the yard. Lame-os are attracted to me. What's the deal?

I love to watch sunsets.

I am a hopeless romantic.

I haven't had a taste of real love, yet.

I set 5 alarms to wake me up in the mornings...and I have slept through a house alarm.

I love surprises.

I love sun rises.

I love discussion.

I love percussion.

But...most of all...I love you.
