Hello, fellow fanfiction-ers! My name is not everyoneisMISunderstood, surprisingly enough. Call me Bri/Brianna either will do =) I'm young enough to be considered young, but old enough to be considered mature. I love purple, friends and people in general, sarcasm/sassy-ness, ice cream, books, laughter, Jesus, Google, honesty, and writing. Enjoy my entirely too long profile, and hopefully the work posted on it ;P favorite quotes: "One of the most frustrating words in the human language, as far as I could tell, was love. So much meaning attached to this one little word. People bandied it about freely, using it to "I don't want to be a man. I want to be an angst-ridden teenager who can't confront his own inner demons and takes it out verbally on other people instead." Jace, City of Ashes "You're like a slow song starting to accelerate." Yellowcard, With You Around "Not so fast. I'll take a cookie. I'm not proud" -Total, Maximum Ride: Saving the World and Other Extreme Sports "Please don't be in love with someone else/ please don't have somebody waiting on you." Taylor Swift, Enchanted "You- you fight good." Shang, Mulan "One must always be careful of books and what is inside them, for words have the power to change us." Tessa, Clockwork Angel "'I'm experiencing some teenage angst, Mrs. Casnoff,' I answered. 'I need to, like, write in my journal or something.'" Sophie, Hex Hall "And sparks fly like flame to a paper/ fire in his touch burning me up but still I held on/ I was already gone." Sugarland, "Already Gone" "Great. Now they're going to think we're showering together. Maybe we can just tell them we were washing off the crawl space dirt and trying to conserve water." Derek, The Summoning "I found mayonaise bottles andpoked holes on top/ to capture Tinker Bell/ they were just fireflies to the untrained eye/ but I could always tell. I believe in fairytales and dreamer's dreams and bedsheet sails/ and I believe in Peter Pan and miracles/ anything I can to get by... and fireflies." Fireflies by Faith Hill "We can be the kings and queens of anything if we believe, it's written in the stars that shine above/ A world where you and I belong, where faith and love will keep us strong/ exactly who we are is just enough, Yes there's a place for us there's a place for us." Carrie Underwood, There's a Place for Us "Whatever you are physically; male or female, strong or weak, ill or healthy - all those things matter less than what your heart contains. If you have the soul of a warrior, you are a warrior. Whatever the color, the shape, the design of the shade that conceals it, the flame inside the lamp remains the same. You are that flame." Jem, Clockwork Angel "Juliet could join Romeo in death, but instead decides he's not worth it, and chooses life. Go Juliet!" Clare Edwards, Degrassi Still Fighting It "I'm thankful for every break in my heart/ I'm grateful for every scar/ some pages turned, some bridges burned/ but they were lessons learned." Carrie Underwood "Lessons Learned" "What was the point in crying when there was no one there to comfort you? And what was worse, when you couldn't even comfort yourself?" Clary, City of Glass "We're young. We've got lots of time to fall in love." Tucker, Unearthly "Ignorance is bliss, cherish it/ pretty neighborhoods, you learn to much to hold." Flyleaf "So I Thought" "Why would I want someone to be my everything when one day they might not be around? What will be left of me then?" Narnie, Jellicoe Road "Honestly, Clary, if you don't start utilizing a bit of your natural feminine superiority, I just don't know what I'll do with you." Isabelle, City of Ashes "I belive in ordinary acts of bravery, in the courage that drives one person to stand up for another." Tris, Divergent "When things end, what matters is not that everything's in pieces, it's how you decide to carry them." - Janie, Stay with Me by Garret Freymann-weyer "Sometimes you gotta lose till you win." Sugarland, "Little Miss" "Why should I tell you everything about how I feel when you never tell me anything? It's like banging my head on a wall, except at least if I were banging my head on a wall, I'd be able to make myself stop." Jace, City of Ashes Don't be fancy, just get dancey!" P!nk, "Raise Your Glass" "Wasn't it easier in your lunchbox days/ always a bigger bed to crawl into/ wasn't it beautiful when you believed in everything/ and everybody believed in you?" Taylor Swift, "Innocent" "Besides my fashion sense? I play a mean harmonica." -Fang, Maximum Ride: Saving the World and Other Extreme Sports "I'll stand up and scream to get what I need/ I got a big mouth, I got a big mouth/ Don't care what you think, I don't give a beep/ As long as you listen to me, when I turn it up and sing aloud/ 'Cause I'm not afraid to give a taste without the sugarcoat, babe/ What can I say? The words just come out/ I got a big mouth." Jessie James, "Big Mouth" "Maybe a reason why all the doors are closed/ so you can open one that leads you to the perfect road." Katy Perry, "Firework" "Oh, my god! It's a killer Pomeranian. It's a tough call, but I think you can take him." Chloe, The Awakening "Weakness and corruption isn't in the world. It's in the people. And it always will be. The world just needs good people to balance it out." Clary, City of Glass "Forgiveness is such a simple word/ but it's so hard to do when you've been hurt." Kellie Pickler "I Wonder" "Teutonic plates? Do they bury German pottery with the dead around here? To cause an earthquake, the tectonic plates need a fault line, which are, like, on the other side of the country." Tori, The Reckoning "So what's with that hey thing? They 'hey' thing that guys always do. Like when you saw Jace and Alec, you said 'hey', and they said 'hey' back. What's wrong with hello?" Clary, City of Bones "I bet you got pushed around, somebody made you cold/ but the cycle ends right now cause you can't lead me down that road/ and you don't know what you don't know/ someday I'll be living in a big ole' city and all you're ever gonna be is mean/ someday I'll be big enough so you can't hit me and all you're ever gonna be is mean/ Why you gotta be so mean?" Taylor Swift, "Mean" "I really don't like you." Jack Atlas, Yu-Gi-Oh 5D's episode 29 in the dub "I see that you are working this vampire angle with some success. And kudos. Lots of girls love that sensitive-undead thing. But I'd drop that whole muscician angle if I were you. Vampire rock stars are played out, and besides, you can't possibly be very good." Jace, City of Glass "We are broken/ what must me do to restore/ our innocence and oh the promise we adored?" Paramore "We are Broken" "I vill now destroy de Snickus bahrs!" -Gazzy, Maximum Ride: Saving the World and Other Extreme Sports "And it's hard to love again when the only way it's been/ when the only love you knew just walked away." Parachute "Kiss Me Slowly" "Time is free, but it's priceless. You can't own it, but you can use it. You can't keep it, but you can send it. Once you've lost it, you can never get it back." - Harvey Mackay "What is a stink bomb, anyway?" -Gazzy, Maximum Ride: School's Out - Forever "Oh the smallest thing can make all the difference/ love is alive/ don't listen to them when they say: you're just a fool, just a fool to believe you can change the world." - Carrie Underwood "Change" "Before you criticize someone, you should walk a mile in their shoes. That way, when you criticize them, you are a mile away from them, and you have their shoes." -Frieda Norris "I feel like pudding. Pudding with nerve endings. Pudding in great pain." -Iggy "You won't let us worry about you because you don't think you're worth it. But I do. I absolutely do." Chloe to Derek, The Reckoning "I'll be there in the back of your mind/ from the day we met to you making me cry/ and it's just too bad you already had the best days of your life." Kellie Pickler "Best Days of Your Life" "The tragedy it seems unending/ I'm watching everyone I looked up to breaking bending/ taking shortcuts and false solutions just to come out the hero." Paramore "Turn it Off" "Hello. Zuko here. But I guess you probably already know me... sort of. Uhh, so! The thing is... I have a lot of FireBending experience, and I'm considered to be pretty good at it. Well, you've seen me, you know when I was attacking you? Uhh... yeah, I guess I should apologize for that... But anyway! I'm good now! I mean, I thought I was good before, but I realize I was bad! But anyway... I think it's time I joined your group and taught the Avatar FireBending." Frog croaks. "Well?! What's your answer!?" Frog croaks and hops away. "Yeah, that's what I'd say too." --Zuko and the frog in Book 3 Chapter 12 The Western Air Temple "People aren't born good or bad. Maybe they're born with tendencies either way, but it's the way you live your life that matters." Simon, City of Glass "They call me the Sharkalator." -Gazzy, MAX "You've got a face for a smile, you know/ a shame you waste it when you're breaking me slowly." Demi Lovato, "World of Chances" "So babe if you know everything/ tell me why you couldn't see that when I left I wanted you to chase after me?" Taylor Swift, "The Other Side of the Door" "Life sucks and then you die." -Jacob Black, Breaking Dawn "They say girl get your head on straight/ you sit around and dream all day/ that faraway look in your eyes ain't normal/ I say, yeah? What's so great about normal?" Katrina Elam "Normal" "No. I kidnapped her and forced her to escape with me. I've been using her as a human shield against those guys with guns, and I was just about to strangle her and leave her body here to throw them off my trail. But then you should up and foiled by evil plans. Lucky for you, though. You get to rescue poor little Chloe again and win her undying gratitude." Tori, The Awakening "There is a time for silence. There is a time for waiting your turn. But if you know how you feel, and you clearly know what to say, you'll know it. I don't think you should wait. I think you should speak now." Taylor Swift "I've been around and I've noticed that/ walking's easy when the road is flat/ them danged ole' hills will get you every time/ yeah, the good Lord gave us mountains... so we could learn how to climb." Lonestar "Mountains" "All the best lies/ they are told with fingers tied/ so cross 'em tight" Paramore, "Feeling Sorry" "Calling someone fat doesn't make you skinnier, and calling someone ugly doesn't make you prettier." Cady in Mean Girls "Here, I'll practice on you. Mom. I have something to tell you. I'm undead. Now, I know you may have some preconceived notions about the undead. I know you may not be comfortable with the idea of me being undead. But I'm here to tell you that the undead are just like you and me. Well, okay. Possibly more like me than you. The first thing you need to understand is that I'm the same person I always was. Being undead isn't the most important thing about me. It's just part of who I am. The second thing you should know is that it isn't a choice. I was born this way. Sorry, reborn this way." Simon, City of Ashes. "But you can't live your life/ walkin in the clouds/ sooner or later/ you have to come down." LeeAnn Womack, "Why They Call It Falling" "The past is history. The future is a mystery. But now is a gift; that is why we call it present." Oogway, Kung Fu Panda, though the quote could have originated elsewhere "She who protects her heart for fear of loss, ends up with no heart at all - just an empty chest." - Unknown "Cause I’ve been housing all this doubt and insecurity/ and I’ve been locked inside that house all the while You hold the key" Relient K "Be my Escape" "There are millions of planets, circling around millions of suns, circling inside millions of galaxy, all circling around one point in the universe. That point... IS NOT YOU!" -Barbara Jean, Reba "I won't be that girl who lets the guy treat her like crap and still fawn all over him." Clara, Unearthly "See... in this e-mail he used the word 'bro' in reference to his friend Dillon. As is, and I quote, 'chill out bro. It will be okay.' He doesn't have a brother. What is it about boys that makes then refer to each other in that way? I don't call Cam or Bex sis. Why? WHY?" "You're the uber-genius?" Liz and Macey I'd Tell You I Love You but Then I'd Have to Kill You "Nobody is worth your tears. And the one that is won't make you cry."-Unknown There's a ton more I just don't feel like putting them all down or I can't think of them at the moment.

So if you guys want to friend request me or anything like that, here's the link. I finally posted some of my original work on Fictionpress. Summary of my first story: I'm blond and blue eyed. I've got a rival, AKA: my best friend's twin. When I crash into his car, I must dance in a chicken suit - yet another cliché to add to my life. But I'll never fall for him because that'd be the most stereotypical stereotype ever. Interested or just wanna make my day? Click here. Donating rice and helping others is pretty easy.
