hey, uh.
i'm savannah. i'm new to this. all of it. well, kind of. i've been spinning and twirling things (primarily batons and weapons [rifles, sabres]) since about third grade. however, i've only recently gotten the cash and the initiative to attempt staff (which is what i'm going for first). i figure since i'm used to spinning it won't be too terrible of a transition to light the ends, but you never know. anyway. i'm sure i'll be around, asking questions, soaking in ideas insatiably... so i just thought i'd get the stats and hello parts out of the way.
name: savannah kay stephenson.
age: eighteen, i'm a baby.
location: sunny florida, usa.
birthday: december 25th, 1985.
sign: capricorn.
height: 5'. maybe 1/2". yes, i'm american and hate the metric system by default.
i like... random obscure indie bands, speaking german, learning languages, good quality cartoons, my extensive knowledge of marvel comics, orson scott card, neil gaiman, making mix cds, playing soccer (football, whatever.. again... american), staying up to watch the sunrise and sleeping in until it sets again, short walks on the beach, long swim sessions, autumn chills, summer breezes, and um... spinning, among lots of other things.
hello.

if your ever in the tampa clearwater area we spin at the beach on the weekends..... You can't avoid pain by fencing yourself from it.
Some times you need the help of others more than anything else
But you have to let them close enough to help......
People want to be needed, I found that out too

(psst, you know i still love you lightning!!!)i see you like neil gaiman! good choice!
I was always scared with my mother's obsession with the good scissors. It made me wonder if there were evil scissors lurking in the house somewhere.
Do not meddle in the affairs of dragons for you are crunchy and good with ketchup.

haha! nothing at all! some of my favorite comics are DC, including neil gaiman's the sandman and pretty much everything allan moore has ever written! however, i'm an x-men girl
so marvel ended up being my thing.anyway. thanks for all the warm welcomes, guys. HoP seems like it carries a friendly enough crowd.
