A BROWN EYED GIRL.
Elizabeth is an aspiring writer, majoring in English at the University of Mary Washington and planning on getting a Master's Degree in creative writing. She is half Korean and lives in Northern Virginia. She has lived all around the world, growing up in a military family, and has been to over twenty different countries. Known to most of her friends as Ellie, she loves curling up in a comfy chair with a good book. Ellie enjoys copious amounts of film and television. She adores music and has a range of musical tastes. She can be very obsessive at times, as well as shy. But beneath the introverted exterior, Ellie is a complete and utter dork. She gets good grades without exerting too much effort, because she is quite lazy. She greatly dislikes the outdoors and summertime. Unlike many of her college counterparts, Ellie refrains from drugs and alcohol. She enjoys tattoos and piercings, having three tattoos to date. Ellie dislikes the majority of people she encounters because she is highly antisocial. She is addicted to concerts because music is her life. Ellie is reluctant about long, moonlit strolls on the beach, but encourages candy and mix cds. She also appreciates a sense of humor. But restrictions are unneccessary if you look like Jake Gyllenhaal or Anderson Cooper.

BODY MODIFICATIONS ELLIE HAS UNDERGONE.
Tattoo #2

Flaming heart with railroad spike on inside of left ankle. Done at Jinx Proof Tattoos in Washington, DC in March 2005. Because as crazy as it sounds, Buffy the Vampire Slayer means a lot to me. The heart is a Buffy design, and the spike stands for my favorite character, Spike. And yes, there is also deeper meaning to the tattoo, but no, I don't feel like telling you.

Tattoo #3

Roman numerals of the numbers 16-15-5-20 on back, just below the bottom of my neck, between my shoulder blades. Done at Insane Ink in Leesburg, Virginia in August 2005. When deciphered, the numbers stand for letters: the 16th letter of the alphabet is P, the 15th is O..., so on. Spells out the word "POET." Because writing is my life.

Tattoo #1/4

Small copyright sign on inside of right ankle. Done at Jinx Proof Tattoos in Washington, DC in January 2005. Then added to in February 2007 at Top Notch Tattoo in Fredericksburg, Virginia. Expanded the copyright sign into a music note and added the lyrics "breathe symphonies," which is from the Something Corporate song "Hurricane."

Other: In the way of piercings, I have two in each ear lobe, and plan on getting my cartilage pierced. I used to have my right eyebrow pierced, but it started to come out (as in out of my skin) so I had to take it out. I miss that thing greatly. Not sure if I plan to try again, it may just migrate once more, knowing my luck.
