My user name is simple, yet complex. I am an actress, and a musician. I rarely go my real name. music is most definately the basis for my life atm. I roadie for a ska band known as Synthetic Elements and also for one known as Suburban Legends. I play many instruments, and also *try* to be vocally musical. I do promo work for bands as well. When I am doing work for bands or even doing my own work, I go by the alias 'Asura Romance' (a-see-ra). So when you combine my alias, with the musical aspects of my life, you get 'romanceismusic'. So in 'romanceismusic' its basically saying, my life is music. lol.

cup o' noodles, in fact is NOT a reference to the food. i think the food is ok, but not username worthy. anywho, it has a small history for my friends and me. ok, so i went to this killer film-making camp type thing, and this guy (who is now, like one of my favorite people in the world!) had this stuffed animal that he carried with him EVERYWHERE! he got it when he was a baby, it was a little monkey (sorry, it's not purple! :D ). the monkey's name is noodle. and noodle was one of my favorite parts of this camp. he was the greatest! nikky (his owner) would make him dance every now and then, and rebecca always tried to take noodle. anywho, on the last day of camp, which was really sad, becuase i knew that i would probably almost never get to see my best friend again outside of camp (our parents are fighting), and nikky finally let me hold noodle. it sounds stupid, but it really cheered me up. noodle is my homeboy! so, my friend (the one that i hardly ever see anymore) gave me a stuffed animal the last time i saw her. it's a little wolf with really creepy blue eyes. in honour of noodle, camp, and all my friends, i named that stuffed animal cup o' noodles. and that's how i got my username!
here's a picture of noodle:

why thank you! if cup o' noodles were alive, i'm sure he'd be flattered. and i'm also sure he would be waving an axe in the air, causing chaos, and killing on sight...that's how creepy his eyes are.

Hey, represent being a flute band geek! Granted I haven't picked mine up since I graduated high school, but you just don't escape the title.

edit: to add that that means I haven't played in 5+ years. Damn I'm old.

Okay, so "Flauta" means 'flute' in Spanish (thank you high school and college Spanish classes). Yes, I was a band geek and proud of it. And "Pantera" is not actually the band, but 'panther' in Spanish (again with the Spanish!) and was my high school mascot.
i too was a band geek. i played the flute for 3 years. i'm proud to say i was a band geek! :D

Actually, seems pretty clear. We called them independent churches.

I was literally fighting back tears as the pastor explained what I had so proudly paraded into the room, only to turn away from just moments before.

A vinegar soaked sponge. (I have never been able to smell vinegar without feeling sick to my stomache since.)

Apparently they decided the best way to make Easter fun was to put a vinegar sponge in an egg, that way he could talk about how that was what people did to taunt Jesus, was to offer him vinegar to drink.
I actually felt bad for you when I read this. You know, I'm sure they had good intentions....but this was so wrong. That would be like giving a christmas present to each child at christmas and one has a pile of horse manure as a christmas present. "Well kids, that's what Jesus had to smell when he was born!"

That's just cruel. The kids are expecting a present...give them one.

Thank you, that's such a great way of putting it. As you can tell, I'm used to telling the story to have people understand how "evil" my church was (tongue in cheek of course.... well, mostly) and why I left, and that's the best way anyone's summed it up before.
