Author has written 2 stories for Percy Jackson and the Olympians.

Hey everyone, I'm Nightmares, though my very few friends call me Ri. My profile thingy is probably going to be very short and just consist of stuff I can steal from others because I'm pretty quiet and reserved and if I've got something to say I'll just say it. Um I'll probably stick to Percy Jackson fanfictions but I might branch out a little.

I happen to be a girl and 16 years old and I'm not a girly girl, nor am I a tomboy (though I play soccer, softball, run track, and watch ESPN), nor am I goth or emo or scene. I don't believe in labels or stereotypes, but I am what one would call a loner I guess. I tend to wear a lor of dark purples, blues, and reds, with lots or white, grey, and black. I don't try to be all dark, but I don't know those are just the clothes that I think look the best. I say "um" and "uh" and "oops" and "sorry" quite a lot and my best friend Danielle thinks I need to grow a pair and stop being so scared of everything (including presenting in front of a class) and I think she's right, but I think I've got social anxiety or something because I just can't. I'm a total geek though, I read and write and bake and sing and dance and act and I love Black Butler and Death Note though I doubt I'll ever write a fanfiction for them. I like Maximum Ride and Twilight too but I don't think I could ever capture Max's obnoxiousness or Bella's whiny-ness.

Um. My favorite color is dark blue, my favorite food is basically any kind of pasta or raviolli because I love Italian, my favorite movie would have to be Titanic and my favorite movie about a book or whatever would have to be the Leo DiCaprio version of Romeo and Juliet. I have a thing for Leonardo DiCaprio, he and Johnny Depp oh and Rylan Gosling (Y'know, from the Notebook) are like my older guy crushes. Well, them and my woodshop teacher Mr. Oswald, who happens to only be about 24 and who I totally harrass every chance I get. I think he's flirting with me half of the time. Okay... off topic. Sorry. Uh.. I really hate the color yellow and I really love wearing lace tops and graphic t-shirts. Sarcasm is my second language (Yes I'm multi-lingual) and I also understand French, though I can't speak it very well (My grandma's Haitian).

People are like slinkies; basically useless, but ever so amusing to watch fall down the stairs.

If you can't convince them, confuse them.

An apple a day keeps the doctor away, if well aimed.

If at first you don't succeed, skydiving isn't for you.

What happens if you get scared half to death... twice?

Never do anything that you wouldn't want to explain to the paramedics.

The dinosaurs extinction wasn't an accident. Barney came and they all committed suicide.

I run with scissors, it makes me feel dangerous.

I had amnesia once--or twice. You know what? I don't really even remember.

Everyone has a photographic memory. Some just don't have film.

They say "Guns don't kill people, people kill people." Well, I think the guns help. If you stood there and yelled BANG, I don't think you'd kill too many people.

Life isn't passing me by, it's trying to run me over.

Last night I lay in bed looking up at the stars in the sky and I thought to myself, where the heck is my ceiling?

When everything's coming your way, you're in the wrong lane.

Sometimes I wonder, "Why is the frisbee getting bigger?" Then I get hit in the face.

Consciousness: That annoying time between naps.

If swimming is so good for your figure, how do you explain whales?

If you don't like my driving then stay off the sidewalk!

Don’t mess with me. I've got a stick.

If two wrongs don't make a right, try three.

When I die, I want to go peacefully like my Grandfather did, in his sleep - not screaming, like the passengers in his car.

I smile because I have no idea what's going on!

One day, your prince will come. Mine? Oh, he just took a wrong turn, got lost, and is too stubborn to ask for directions.

One day, we will look back on this, laugh nervously, and change the subject.

Don't knock on death's door. Ring the bell and run. He hates that.

Whoever said nothing was impossible never tried slamming a revolving door...

Parents spend the first part of our lives teaching us to walk and talk, and the rest of it telling us to sit down and shut up.

Of course I'm out of my mind! It's dark and scary in there!

I'm not afraid of death! What's it going to do? Kill me?

Real girls aren't perfect, perfect girls aren't real. You want a perfect girl? Go buy a Barbie

Having the love of your life say "We can still be friends" is like having your dog die and your mom saying you can still keep it.

When someone annoys you it takes 42 muscles to frown about it but it only takes 4 muscles to extend your arm and punch them!

I dream of a better world where chickens can cross the road without having their motives questioned.

I used up all my sick days...so I called in dead.

Stressed is Desserts backwards :)

When you get caught looking at him, just remember, he was looking back!

Of all the things I’ve lost, I miss my mind the most.

You're laughing now because you're older than me by mere months, but when you 30 and I'm still 29, who will be laughing then?

I don't suffer from insanity... I enjoy every minute of it.

There's a light at the end of every tunnel...lets just hope it's not a train.

Ever stop to think, and forget to start again?

I am in shape...round is a shape.

I don't swim in your toilet, so don't pee in my pool.

You cry, I cry, you laugh, I laugh, you fall off a cliff, and I laugh even harder.

Boys are like trees – they take fifty years to grow up.

Flying is not inherently dangerous- crashing is.

Forecast for tonight: darkness.

Tragedy is when I cut my finger. Comedy is when you fall through a sewer hole and die.

Love your enemies. It gets them really confused.

If aliens are looking for intelligent life, why the heck are you scared?!

I called your boyfriend gay and he hit me with his purse.

Some say the glass is half full, others the glass is half empty, all I want to know is who's drank my water!

Life isn't about the number of breaths we take, but the moments that take our breath away. Like choking.

Questions to Ponder...

Why can pizza get to your house faster then an ambulance?

Why do they lock gas station bathrooms? Are they afraid someone might actually clean them?

Where's the good in goodbye?

Why are they called apartments when they all stick together?

If flying is so safe, why do they call the airport the terminal?

Am I the only one who finds it scary that doctors call what they do "practice"?

Why is abbreviation such a long word?

If you try to fail and succeed, which have you done?

When the guy first discovered milk...what do you think he was doing?

I'm the kind of girl who will burst our laughing in the middle of adead silence because of something that happened yesterday.

I'm the kind of girl who would rather act stupid than smart.

I'm the kind of girl who would get fired at the M&M's company for eating most of them.

I'm the kind of girl who in an awkward silence or someone says something awkward would laugh.

I'm the kind of girl who's not afraid to prank my friends.

I'm the kind of girl who would make my friends laugh by just being with them for a few minutes.

How can one describe one's self, when we truely have no idea who we are.

Would you like a description, a definition, a summary?

Paint a picture with your eyes squeezed shut, and imagine what you may create.

For now, I'm just going to keep on living.

When life gives you lemons, make grape juice and let the world wonder why the hell you did it.

Heaven doesn’t want me, and Hell’s afraid I’ll take over because if it wasn't for physics and law enforcement, I'd be unstoppable.

There's nothing wrong with arguing with yourself. It's when you argue with yourself and LOSE when it's weird.

Sometimes I lie awake at night, and I ask, "Where have I gone wrong?" Then a voice says to me, "This is going to take more than one night."

If toast always lands butter-side down, and cats always land on their feet, what happens if you strap toast on the back of a cat and drop?

If you try to fail, and succeed, which have you done?

Pain is inevitable; suffering is optional

Growing old is mandatory; growing up is optional

Dream as if you'll live forever; live as if you'll die today

I'm the kind of person who will burst out laughing in the middle of a dead silence because of something that happened...yesterday.

Last night, I was lying on my bed, staring up at the stars and wondering 'Where the heck is my roof?'

I’m not saying you’re stupid, I’m just implying it.

Whoever said nothing is impossible never tried slamming a revolving door...

I'm the kind of person that walks into a door and apologizes.

Never let the fear of striking out keep you from playing the game

A little madness, a little kindness, makes for happiness

Crazy is when you crack up if someone says oatmeal

Crazy is when you quote Charlie the Unicorn at random times

Note to self: it is illegal to stab people for being stupid

If your heart was really broken...you'd be dead so shut up

I wrote your name in the sky, but the wind blew it away. I wrote your name in the sand, but the waves splashed it away. I wrote your name in my heart, and it lasted forever.

I'm not so good at advice. Can I intrest you in a sarcastic comment?

I'm the kind of girl who will dance in the pouring rain,

Smile like im fine when im not,

Make you laugh when you want to cry,

Worry more about you than me,

Fall over laughing at the dumbest things, (Like dropping a quarter or riding in those motorized wheelchairs at the grocery store.)

Always forgives but never forgets,

Who loves so many and hates so few,

When she is hated by so many and loved by so few.

Everything here is eatable. I'm eatable, but that my children is called cannibalism and is frowned upon in most societies

Don't call me emo or I'll cry big juicy tears of blood and pain and then I'll die and it will be ALL YOUR fault

Don't frown, even when you’re sad, someone could be falling in love with your smile.

You have to have darkness for a dawn to come.

Last night I looked up at the stars and matched each star to a reason I loved you. I was doing fine till I ran out of stars.

To the world, you are just one person, but to one person, you are the world

Imitation is the most annoying form of flattery.

Always forgive your enemies - Nothing annoys them so much

You cry, I cry, you laugh, I laugh, you fall off a cliff, I laugh even harder

I agree with the dictionary. Girls before guys, partying before studying, and friends before love.

I don't obsess! I think...intensely.

All the good ones are either gay, married, taken or fictional characters in books or movies.

The greatest challenge in life is to find someone who knows all your flaws, differences, and mistakes, and yet still sees the best in you.

When life gives you lemons, make grape juice. Then sit back and watch the world wonder how you did it.

Those who don't learn from history are doomed to repeat it.

Always remember you're unique, just like everyone else

Why the sun lightens our hair,
but darkens our skin?

Why women can't put on mascara
with their mouth closed?

Why you have to click on "Start" to stop Windows 98?

Why lemon juice is made with artificial flavor,
while dishwashing liquid is made with real lemons?

Who tastes dog food when it has a "new & improved" flavor?

Why Noah didn't swat those two mosquitoes?

Why don't sheep shrink when it rains?

Why they are called apartments when
they are all stuck together?

If con is the opposite of pro,
is "Congress" the opposite of "progress"?

Why they call the airport "the terminal"
if flying is so safe?

Why is it called common sense if it's so rare?

In case you needed further proof that the human race is doomed to stupidity, here are some actual label instructions on consumer goods:

On a Sears hairdryer -- Do not use while sleeping.
(Shoot, and that's the only time I have to work on my hair.)

On a bag of Fritos -- You could be a winner! No purchase necessary. Details inside.
(the shoplifter special)?

On a bar of Dial soap -- "Directions: Use like regular soap,"
(and that would be how???...)

On some Swanson frozen dinners -- "Serving suggestion: Defrost."
(but, it's "just" a suggestion).

On Tesco's Tiramisu dessert (printed on bottom) -- "Do not turn upside down."
(well...duh, a bit late, huh)!

On Marks & Spencer Bread Pudding -- "Product will be hot after heating."
(...and you thought????...)

On packaging for a Rowena iron -- "Do not iron clothes on body."
(but wouldn't this save me more time)?

On Boot's Children Cough Medicine -- "Do not drive a car or operate machinery after taking this medication."
(We could do a lot to reduce the rate of construction accidents if we could just get those 5-year-olds with head-colds off those forklifts.)

On Nytol Sleep Aid -- "Warning: May cause drowsiness."
(and...I'm taking this because???...)

On most brands of Christmas lights -- "For indoor or outdoor use only."
(as opposed to...what, in your stomach?)

On a Japanese food processor -- "Not to be used for the other use."
(now, somebody out there, help me on this. I'm a bit curious)

On Sainsbury's peanuts -- "Warning: contains nuts."
(I never would've guessed.)

On an American Airlines packet of nuts -- "Instructions: Open packet, eat nuts."
(I thought they would just appear in my gastro-intestinal acids. That's what happens when I fly Delta.)

On a child's Superman costume -- "Wearing of this garment does not enable you to fly."
(I don't blame the company. I blame the parents for this one.)

On a Swedish chainsaw -- "Do not attempt to stop chain with your hands or genitals."
(Well, you know, it's a little too late for my boyrfriend.)

I think those are funny little tidbits, don't you. I'm currently in a really laughy (I highly doubt that's a words) mood, so everything is funny to me. And no, I did not just smoke a joint (I took a Valium... duh!)

1. When you are sad -- I will jump on the person who made you sad like a spider monkey jacked up on mountain dew.

2. When you are blue -- I will try to dislodge whatever is choking you.

3. When you smile -- I will know you are plotting something that I must become involved in.

4. When you are scared -- I will rag on you about it every chance I get.

5. When you are worried -- I will tell you horrible stories about how much worse it could be until you quit whining. (It could've been cancer...)

6. When you are confused -- I will use little words.

7. When you are sick -- Stay away from me until you are well again. I don't want whatever the hell you have.

8. When you fall -- I will point and laugh at your clumsy ass.

9. This is my oath... I pledge it to the end. 'Why?' you may ask; 'because you are my friend'..

Yeah. So I guess I'll update more after I copy and paste a few things from someone else's profile.


Also, I'm writing a new FictionPress story, under the name Sweetest Nightmare1897 and it's called Teenagers. It's about Zoe Champion, a girl with an attitude who, after having an awkward therapy session for her anger management, decides it would be best for society to create a blog about the trials and tribulations of being a regular teenager. Her blog is successful and acknowledged on TV everywhere, and throughout her rise to Internet superstardom she goes through some of the things she focuses on in her blog, like crazy teenage hormones, sexuality, friendship and even relationships, all the things she could never speak about herself.

I think it's pretty well written, so please please, go check it out!
