The First

Welcome one and all to Somewhere.  In case you haven't noticed, you are, right now, in the Somewhere.  That's where I am all the time, me, Gloom Andromeda.  The blog of In The Somewhere will be updated weekly? monthly? with various posts, maybe it will change, but it depends on whether or not I can actually keep up with this thing.
  So, I'll start with telling you a little about myself.  Well, I'm a Goth.  Now, don't roll your eyes at me.  It may not mean what you think it does.


A Tangent:  Goth:  Goth came from the 1980's when Post-Punk sprang out of Punk and, gloom-shrouded and atmospheric, became what's known as Goth Rock or sometimes Post-Punk.  These bands that formed a genre include:  Joy Division, Bauhaus, Siouxsie and the Banshees, The Cure, etc.  The music formed the people, the subculture.  There are tons of goth rock bands, most old, some new.  It also means that I dress like a Goth, black clothes, big boots, makeup, you know what I mean.  To a lesser extent it also includes a certain "mindset", this mindset has mainly to do with acknowledging the spookier parts of life (and the sadder ones as well).  That doesn't mean goths are sad, depressed, self-harm, do drugs, or anything like that.  That's why I italicized "acknowledging".  To quote The Lady of the Manners, it's about "finding beauty in dark and unexpected places".  But don't forget that it's the music that makes the Goth, that's much much important.

Sorry about that.
For some reason I felt like it was necessary for me to tell you that.  It's just that most people don't know and end up judging me before they know me, that's why I really don't tell people that I'm a goth.
So where were we?  Oh yes, my favorite subject: ME!  I like to read. Duh.  I like the Green Rider series.  They're my faaaaavorite.

Here are some little things:
I like Tim Burton and Edward Gorey(again, duh.)
I like Alan Menken
I like to write
I like to act
I like to sing
I like Greek Mythology
I like World of Warcraft

I don't like stupid people
I don't like catty people

Stupid/Catty people are my pet peeves, that and rotting food.  I just can't deal with it.  I strive to make sure I'm accurate, constantly.  With so much information at my fingertips, how can I not be?  The internet is a treasure trove of information and I looooove information.
     For example, I know tons about Greek Mythology.  Everything from the 12 Olympians to the Rivers of the Underworld.  From Aurora to Psyche, from Thanatos to Hippolyta.

I think I've covered most everything!!  Well, I've covered everything meaningless and superficial, really, what does any of this stuff matter in the end?  I don't know, maybe I'll find out one day.

I'll see you in the Somewhere
