So my name is Valerie and I am, as it states, 18 years of age. I am of course female, and the photographs of myself are in my gallery, along with the many snap shots I take of me and my awesome IMVU friends. I live in Washington State, not D.C., so please, stop asking. ^_^ My interests include photography, videogames, writing poetry, writing music, singing (badly), dancing, occasional shopping, badmitten, bowling, and much much more. My birthday is on December 31st which is New Years Eve people, not Christmas. =] But I can totally see how you could get the two mixed up *rolls eyes* I graduated in June of 2007 from high school and since Augest of 2006 have been attending the nearest community college from home through the Running Start Program. I am going to college currently to get my A.A. degree. For those of you who don't know what that is, it is an Associate in Arts degree. After that, I am hoping to go on to a 4 year college somewhere and maybe find a job in photography. But enough about school. Moving on. I am on IMVU to make some friends. It doesn't matter who you are or what religion you're of or anything of the sort. =] I'm a pretty open person too so feel free to message me if you would like or send me an invite on IMVU messenger. =] Thanks so much for taking the time to read this. <3 P.s. Big fan of icons so if you have any, please pass them on unless they are anime ones, I haven't had cable or sattelite since I was 9 =] So I don't watch the stuff. Teehee. My boyfriend and I broke up.

I'd like to ask everyone a favor.. even if I don't know you... in fact... especially if I don't know you. I get continuous invites to be friends with people. But what exactly is a friend? A friend is someone who you can chat with and goof around with and so on and so forth. If I haven't spoken with you before, you're NOT my friend. So don't add me. I'd appreciate if you messaged me and we talked a bit first. Thank you.

Well well, school is starting up again real soon it seems. As for that, it means I wont be online very much anymore. Not that I can imagine finding this out would cause you deep concern and/or sadness so it's not a big deal is it? Anyway... After Sunday night on September 2nd I will only be on from 3 to 4pm with the exception of these days...

Wednesday from 3 to 4pm and 5 to 8pm Pacific Standard time
Tuesday from 3 to 8pm (I think) Pacific Standard time
Sunday from 5 to 8pm Pacific Standard time

Valerie has become kind of picky, and maybe it's just these past few days that have made her this way, but she has made a list for you on what bothers her so, hopefully, you wont bother her.

***People who invite you to chat and then have to go. It takes FOREVER for my slow computer to load a room.
***People who go into chats or invite me to chats because they are "h0rny" or looking for a girlfriend. You guys are losers.
***People who don't know me and add me. Even worse, when people don't know me, don't read my paragraph, and still continue to add me. The text is there for a reason, PLEASE read it.
***Adults who can't type. I'm sorry... I guess sometimes I really care about how a person spells and types. If you're chatting with me and you're 30 and you still "type lyk dis bcuz ur lazy" Sorry... not interested. I understand spelling mistakes, it happens to all of us. Even if you're younger, say 15, I know you can type too. Please do. (Things like brb, omg, hb, etc. are fine though).
***People who aren't polite. When I say "How are you?" And you say, "Fine." HELLO! Would it be so damn difficult to say, "I'm fine, thanks. How are you?" When you don't, the conversation goes silent, because what am I supposed to say?
***I'm sure there's more and when I figure out what it is I'll add it.
