LANEY PEYTON RHODES
seventeen , high school , dreamer
[/size]______________________________
yo, yo, yo! the name is kaylie and i'm living life as a female. i haven't really been on this planet for far too long since i'm only sixteen. for three years of that time i've spent it doing this. i've totally read the rules, too. or else i wouldn't know that keep spinning circles
______________________________[/size][/center]
[/size]HELLO! LET'S START OUT WITH SOMETHING EASY. WHAT WAS THE NAME GIVEN TO YOUR PRETTY FACE?
my name? oh well, mmkay, it's laney peyton rhodes. i know what your thinking. laney? if your wondering how to pronounce it, its just like "lane" except with a y on the end that just so happens to make a ee sound. so yeahh. from what i've heard my mother just really liked the name. she didn't like those common names that every girl seemed to have, so she wanted something original. apparantely it means "path" or something like that. and then peyton. of course my dad wanted in on the naming thing. and he just sort of chose peyton. i think peyton's a guy name, and i think he knows it. i like my name though, so i guess that's all that matters?
WHEN AND WHERE WERE YOU BORN? DO YOU HAPPEN TO KNOW ANYTHING INTERESTING ABOUT IT?
[/size][/right]so you want my birthday? okay. my birthday falls on the wonderful day of march twenty first. and yes, i am currently seventeen years of age. i love my birthday, presents galore. haha. but that's not the only reason, i love getting my friends and family together and this is pretty much the only time that ever really happens. i was a night time baby, or morning, whatever. due to the fact that i was born at three oh three am in the morning. i was born in nashville, tennessee. although i moved to newark at the age of four.
YOU KNOW I HAVE TO ASK THIS.. WHICH WAY DO YOU SWING? MEN, WOMEN?... MAYBE BOTH?
[/size][/right]heterosexual, thanks. i completely go for the men. although i have nothing against homosexuals. just saying!
MOVING ON TO SOMETHING MORE COMFORTABLE.. WHAT WOULD I HAVE TO DO TO SEE YOU SMILE?
[/size][/right]just mention anything i like or enjoy doing basically. this could includes numerous things such as : music, acoustic guitars, concerts, horses, chocolate, candy, sweets, ice cream, stuffed animals, carnivals, writing, singing, dancing, dressing up, photography, the outdoors, animals, acting, my family, my friends, going out. you know, any of those things basically. i'm sure i have more but that's all i can think of off the top of my head.
NOW, WHAT EXACTLY WOULD I HAVE TO DO TO GET YOU PISSED AND UPSET? NOT THAT I PLAN ON IT.
[/size][/right]ehh. well i do have a few dislikes. such as : lying, backstabbers, traitors, gossip, trash talkers, two-faced people, bad news, getting upset, death, sad stories, reading, vegetables, spiders, snakes. bugs, height, scary movies, horror stories, camping, forests, storms, wildfires, thunder, lightning, wild animals, classical music, homework, school work, getting grounded. once again i'm sure i have more. but for the sake of not making this ridiculously long, it would probably be best if i just stopped there for now.
WHAT DO YOU WANT TO DO WITH YOURSELF? YOU KNOW, THOSE THINGS CALLED 'GOALS'?
[/size][/right]i want to be a musician. it's basically been my dream since i was a little girl. i remember always standing in my high chair, singing into a metal spoon. it was always the spice girls, or michael jackson. or someone along those lines. my parents always used to joke that i could carry a tune before i could actually talk. haha. they tell me that by the time i was four years old i knew the words to pretty much every mainstream song on the radio at that time. when i was ten years old my dad bought my a guitar as a present for my birthday. i loved it and everything, but there was one little problem. i didn't know how to play that thing. my dad, however, revealed to me that he knew how to play and that he would be happy to give me lessons if i really wanted to learn. well, what's the point of getting a guitar if your not going to learn to play it? so, of course i took his offer. six months later, i was fluent, to say the least. i loved it, and by the time i was twelve i was making up my own little rifts, and melodies. all that was missing was words. so i was sitting in math class one day when words just came streaming into my head, floating along to a melody i had composed on my guitar the day before. i wrote it all down and there it was, my first song. ever since then it has just came naturally, singing, writing, and playing. i also took piano lessons when i was seven. but that wasn't really a actual passion of mine. so my goal is too make a career of out music. i want to share my music with the world.
HOW IS YOUR LOVE-LIFE RUNNING? I'M ALWAYS DOWN FOR SPICING IT UP....
[/size][/right]my love life? that's non-existient at the moment i guess you could say. i'm currently very much single. i'm down for relationships. i can commit to them if the other person is also in it for the long run. the only thing that gets to me about relationships is that they usually always end up in disaster, and the pain that comes with the breakups isn't all that great. i mean, i do flings. i'm a seventeen year old girl? who doesn't? so i'm up for anything really.
NOW TELL ME ABOUT THAT FAMILY OF YOURS. HOW WELL DO THINGS RUN THERE? IS IT JUICY?
[/size][/right]my family? oh gosh, they are completely wonderful. first, there is my mother emmeline estelle rhodes, formerly, emmeline estelle frasier. she is currently forty four years of age and i love her to death. she has been there for me through everything. she has always supported my dreams and made it known to me that if i put my mine to something, i can achieve it if i work hard enough. she's a go to mom, one that i don't mind sitting down and talking to about relationship problems or life problems. she's a piano teacher, part time though, we have more than enough money, so the other time she's a stay at home mom. and she also works from home so she's always around.
then there is my excellent father, jeffrey rodney rhodes. he is also forty four years of age, although he still claims he's not a day older than twenty seven. my dad is the kindest person you will ever meet. he never has a mean word to say about anyone, or at least not a real one. he loves to joke around and will pick fun at you every way possible. he always makes boring family gatherings bearable, due to his many jokes. he is great at breaking the ice. he has always been there for me and i've never seen anyone with more faith than this guy right here. his faith in me is astounding and i could never ask for a better father. he has definitely made me a stronger person.
i have a older brother, he does not live with us, although he does live here newark. his name is rylan nathaniel rhodes. he is currently twenty one years old. he has just graduated from college, which my parents are very proud about. me and him are close, i mean i know he is there for me when i need him. although he has his own life and i am not about to get involved in that. he is a good natured guy and he loves life. he is a big animal activist and he loves the outdoors. there's only one thing, he also loves glitter, tight pants, rock music, and men. yes, my brother is gay. i do not look at him different in any way. mainly, because i remember him coming out at sixteen and it wasn't really a shock to any of us. i call him when i need shopping advice, or when i want a chat about guys. it's pretty awesome.
LAST BUT NOT LEAST, ANY SECRETS YOU WANT TO SHARE WITH ME? MY LIPS ARE SEALED.
[/size][/right]secret? okay well, i'm spiraling down into a eating disorder. i have body image issues, and really i just don't eat. i have issues with making myself vomit, even when i don't have anything in my stomach.[/blockquote][/blockquote][/blockquote]
a young brunette was currently laying on the sofa in the sitting room of her house. her arms crossed on her stomach as she stared blankly at the television screen. it was some re-run of some abc family show that she couldn't name if she had tried. she wasn't really focused on the moving pictures in front of her, however, there were some more important things preoccupying the young girl's mind. alexis rayne harris sat on slowly on the couch, she had woken up that morning at her friend paige's with a hangover from hell. which was weird, considering she didn't remember drinking or anything. in fact, she hadn't. what was causing her discomfort was known to her, however. she had gone out last night and a few things had gotten out of hand. she hadn't been for them too, she just wanted to get her mind off things. but it had happened, and she couldn't change things.
her and gavin had gotten into a fight last night. that she remembered. thoughts flooded quickly back to her and hit her with a bang. lexi frowned, she had avoided thinking about that as much as possible and she wanted to continue doing just that. it had hurt, she had said it didn't and it wasn't the first time she had been called uptight. she knew that in a way she was, but coming from gavin it just hurt. she had been joking, that had been the worst of it all. but it really didn't matter now, it was all over, everything. she had logged out of the chatroom in a fury. throwing on clothes and heading out to some random club. she wasnt' old enough to drink, but she knew people who could get her in, regardless of her only being seventeen. she had found a few friends there, or she had made some. she didn't remember exactly which.
alexis had met a guy there, alexander, she remembered his name. atleast that was a good thing. in her rage against gavin she had taken things too far. she had just wanted to forget, she never meant for it to get as far as it did. but it had, and she gave up her innocence to a guy she didn't even know the last name of. even if she hadn't wanted the purity ring, she had wanted her first time to be with someone special. but she could just kiss it all goodbye now. she felt horrible about it, she felt dirty, stained. as if something had been ripped from her. something previous and valuable. the waterworks had been on and off the for the last few hours. her parents hadn't picked up on it, but then again, they were at the airport. her mother was seeing her father off, since he was on a missionary trip. lexi figured it was also to get away from his teenage twin daughters for awhile too. they had been questioning a lot now days, and she was sure that it bothered him.
it wasn't that alexis questioned their faith. it was just hard in society now days. especcially in a high school atmosphere, balancing living life and keeping your faith was very hard to do. and while she wanted to both she felt like she had to chose. and well, she could always pick back up on faith later couldn't she? after all, you only got to be a teenager once. her dad knew she loved him, she voiced it plenty of times. although she had to admit that she was feeling way too lousy to bid him goodbye before he took off to the airport. well, the truth was that she couldn't bare to face him. she wondered if he would be able to tell what had happened with one glance in her direction. she was scared that he would yell at her, call her a disgrace, that he would disown her.
alexis sat up on the couch, as the door creaked open. she stood up as she heard footsteps enter. but something wasn't right. her mother was crying. lexi's eyes widened in fear. had she found out? was that why she was crying? if not, what was she crying about? she hadn't seen her mother cry but maybe three times in her entire seventeen years of living. something serious had to be wrong. "grace!" she caleld out in a shaky voice, to her twin sister, who she was certain was upstairs at that moment. alexis brushed some of her brunette hair out of her face before reaching out to her mother. "mom. w-what's wrong?" she stuttered out, as a bad feeling feeled through her body. settling in the pit of her stomach. the harris' mother seemed to only sob harder at her youngest daughter's question.
she seemed to wait until grace appeared unil she finally choked out the news. "the plane.. crashed.. dead." she sobbed out, causing alexis to do a double take. she couldn't quite piece it together. but she was certain she had heard the word dead. "dead? mom, what's going on?" she asked, as panic flooded her body, replacing the feeling that something was terribly wron.g "your father.. he's dead." she choked out, and just like everything seemed to change. lexi's knees buckled as the panic took over her body. it all made sense now. plane crash, dead. their dad. on that plane. gone. alexis found that the air seemed to be wearing thin and she was struggling to breathe. tears were now blurring her vision, as she stared at her mother. shaking her head, rapidly. it couldn't be true. their dad has always seemed so indestructible. there was no way he could be dead. he wouldn't just leave them like that. her mother gave on solemn nod, that seemed to cause finalty.
