Hiya! I'm Scarlett, lovely to meet you. To make a long story short - I was born August 21, 1986, born and raised in Maryland, and I'm currently a History major at the University of Maryland (fear the turtle!).

If you'd like to pass some time by reading stuff about a total stranger (me!), here's a (rather long) history of my experiences with Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD).

I spend a lot of time over at Livejournal, and I love to write about my favorite music at my music blog. I listen to entirely too much pop music: my last.fm proves it! I've also become addicted to tumblr and waste a lot of time over there. :)

Stuff that's so important, it belongs in a category of its own (but I'm too lazy to actually go about doing that, so here ya go)

• Pop music [Love it.]
• The Mighty Boosh [The Boosh is love.]
• Peter Cook [He's a flippin' genius.]
• British comedies/British television [Good stuff.]
• Internet, websites, website design [Well... obviously.]
• Graphics/icons [Adobe PhotoShop is love, also.]
• Attempting to remix songs in Acid Music [Well, my work sounds good to me!]

TV

• Are You Being Served? [They're like a second family, that lot. I've been watching for eons now. Love, love, love this show.]
• The Mighty Boosh [Classic times, crazy days.]
• Blackadder [You can never have enough turnip jokes.]
• Doctor Who [The classic series and the Fourth Doctor are my favorites. :D]
• King Of The Hill [Sh-sh-sha!]
• SpongeBob Squarepants [You gotta love the SpongeBob.]
• Monty Python's Flying Circus [I sincerely believe that you are flawed if you dislike this... it's not even a show, it's a way of life.]
• Ballykissangel [Aw, BallyK!]
• The Simpsons [You are not a human being if you don't like this show.]

Movies

• Gone With The Wind (1939) [Best. Movie. Ever.]
• It's A Wonderful Life (1946) [It's not always a wonderful life, but it's always a wonderful movie.]
• Withnail & I (1987) [They've gone on holiday by mistake! Every line is instantly quotable! Excellent movie.]
• Bedazzled (1967) ["Release your doo-dahs!"]
• MP & The Holy Grail (1975) [Should be made mandatory viewing for every living being.]
• Harry Potter series [They're all fun!]
• Miss Pettigrew Lives For A Day (2008) [Such a pretty movie!]
• Butch Cassidy And The Sundance Kid (1969) [Classic.]
• Steel Magnolias (1989) [Pretty much the ultimate chick flick, but I love it. So many great quotes.]
• Forrest Gump (1994) [I weep - weep, I tell you - when he talks to Jenny at her grave toward the end.]

Music

• Kate Bush [Total brilliance.]
• Kylie Minogue [Aw, Kylie! She's just so fun to listen to. Impossible Princess = best Kylie album ever.]
• Madonna [Because she's Madonna.]
• Clannad [Because they're the best Irish band ever, duh.]
• Sarah Brightman [Truly the angel of music.]
• Dannii Minogue [Don't forget Dannii! Fun and happy music with a club edge. And really not at all like Kylie (really!)]
• Dana International [Such fun 'n' fierce music!]
• Siobhan Donaghy [Underrated and awesome!]
• Richard Ashcroft [True story: I like his solo work better than his stuff with The Verve.]
• The Beatles [Of course!]

• Natacha Atlas [I don't understand a thing she sings, but golly, is it beautiful.]
• Enya [A very unique musician. I've loved her music forever.]
• Remixes [Love 'em.]

Actors/Actresses

• Tom Baker [Hey, he's an actor! He didn't just act on Doctor Who, he also played other roles. Like... uh... well, Capt. Redbeard Rum on Blackadder! Yeah!]
• Peter Cook [Deserves another mention. I adore how he looks at the camera, or off to another part of the set. Seriously, that's fantastic stuff.]
• Jimmy Stewart [Jimmah! Aw, he's so great. Any movie with him is excellent.]
• Johnny Depp [Oh, how I love the Depp.]
• Robert Redford [He was so dreamy... Oh, he's also a great actor, too.]
• Colin Firth [Wonderful in any role.]
• Vivien Leigh [She played Scarlett. 'Nuff said.]
• Diana Rigg [I wanna be like Mrs Bradley when I grow up! I'd like to be like Emma Peel now, but I have a disturbing lack of coolness that prevents this. And, you know, judo skills.]

Books

• Gone With The Wind [Best. Book. Ever.]
• The Awakening (by Kate Chopin) [Rich in imagery, meaning, and subtext.]
• Harry Potter series [Always.]
• Anything about pop culture/pop music. [Endlessly fascinating. I'm serious!]
• Anything by Dave Barry [I am not making this up.]
• Anything about Peter Cook [Particularly The Complete Peter Cook. Go read it now.]
• Humor [Political, definitely, but general humor is good too.]
• Pretty much whatever looks interesting [Yep.]
