::Description::
"I listen to every band you think you have in your back pocket."
Darla comes across as a very pretentious, very conceited young lady. To some extent she may be so, a personality trait she has picked up on to make her less vunerable and less easy to decieve. However, this protection aid 'wall' only goes up when she wants it to. She has little to no remorse in the way in which she acts to people. She is very unempathetic at times and finds it impossible to understand anyone else's side of the situation. Darla loves to argue, debate, but - most of all - she likes to be right. Darla is a very tough, stubborn girl. She enjoys making people hate her and polarizing people's opinions instantly. Either love her or hate her, she says, she's not bothered either way - or so she says. She's an extrovert, she will let her feelings known loud and clear, regardless of whether the majority of people present will agree with her or not. She adores confrontation, and getting on people's nerves. Infact, it's probably the thing that she does the very best.
"The only thing that seperates women from men are names and balls. Sometimes."
Darla is also active in feminism, but she also believes in equal rights for men. Men get less time off than woman do when a child comes, and Darla believes that this should be changed. Her father was very into everything when her little brother was born, but he was forced to go back to work when his paternity leave was over. Darla knew that her father was upset to be leaving to go back to work and Darla would like to see a change in this all, as she thinks it's ridiculous to campaign solely for woman having equal rights, because that would mean their maternity leave would be reduced. Darla believes it is useless to fight for a cause when you don't review the other things that will be beneficial toward it. Darla is the type of person who things that a crime should be punished with a penalty equal or more than the crime. For example, if someone beats their wife, then they should be beaten back so they know how it feels like. Darla knows that she may be alone in this belief, but she doesn't care. Darla doesn't believe in things like capital punishment, either, she thinks it's an easy way out of guilt and suffering for the people who have inflicted such horrible pain. Darla also believes that America is so focussed on the war right now that they don't notice what it going on under their noses and then act all 'surprised' when a tragedy occurs.
"Trust no one."
Darla is a firm believer in the idea that people are getting truly ripped off and blackmailed by the government. She is often called 'paranoid', and she has, in fact, watched a little too much of the X Files and Lone Gunmen, but she has based her own ideas off of these shows. Darla is not a very naive person, she doesn't fall for things often and is often hot headed and stubborn. She is not quick to believe people, even when they tell her very sincere things like 'I love you' or 'I want to help you'. Darla believes that everyone says or does things for their own selfish wants and needs, even though they seem to believe on the surface that they are sincere. When bands do something nice, who does it benefit the most? The starving kids in Africa who will probably never get out of poverty, or the band, who get lavished upon for their 'good deeds'. Darla understands that people attempt to be selfless though, but there is no such thing as a selfless act, and there never will be.
"People like you are like 7-Elevens - always open."
Darla hates people who gives themselves away so easily or have sex just for the idea of having sex. Darla hates to hear people bragging about how many people they've fucked or whatever. Darla finds sex to be so over rated, but it goes either way. Either people make it out to be the best thing in the world, or they make it out to be the most important thing in the world which can only be down with 'the one'. Darla thinks that people have more than one 'the one', if they even do. It is just a matter of finding that person and then making it work. Love is a series of compromises and understanding and comminucation and trust, not whether you're 'meant to be together'. Darla would like to be able to find that person who she is willing to compromise with, and willing to understand and communicate and trust, but she doubts anyone will ever come along who it willing to do the same for herself.
"MySpace is like drugs - people think they're cool but really it's destroying your social life."
Darla hates people who conform to whatever the most popular trend is - neu-rave, rave, scene, emo, whatever. Darla finds it impossible to understand why people are so sheep-like in personality. She understands on some level that this gives them someone to 'relate' to, so they're not so 'misunderstood', but Darla doesn't understand why teenagers cannot comprehend that they are all understood by each other, no matter whatever they 'label' themselvs. It's strange though, because people who try so desperately to be 'non-conformist' are so conformist it's unbelievable. Darla believes in individuality, and the ability to forget society wants to tell you who are you. Darla says people can be one label one day and another the next day. Nothing is constant, and nothing should be constant. Darla likes being on her toes, and therefore people generally see a constant change in her. She can be very simple one day, and the next day she can be the most complex person you've ever talked to. She's got a very Jack Sparrow-esque feeling about her. Darla will do whatever people tell her not to simple because she wants to do it. If you told her not to be stupid - she'll be as stupid as humanely possible.
"When it's time to party, and I quote, 'we will party hard'."
Despite how she may come across Darla has a looser streak to her, she is actually quite a personable girl once people get to know her. The only thing people truly need to recognize to be her friend is one simple thing - Darla will do what she wants, she will say what she wants, and she will think what she wants. Darla is a very hard person to beat down, she's unempathetice, she refuses to back down from a fight (and she often starts them at that) and she is generally sickened by humanity and how ridiculous it all is. However, Darla enjoys hanging out with friends, talking with them, having fun and being very loud and noisy. She's a very good person to have at the front of a gig, that's for sure. She is the kind of person who brings all sorts of things to gigs, very random and unnecessary items that usual end up crowd surfing, like gaint blow up dinosaurs.
"People who say music saved their lives are bullshitting - it might have helped them, but music isn't enough."
Darla also has strong feelings about people who claim '[insert over rated band name here] saved my life'. She understands music is an outlet, a creative piece of literal art, just like writing and painting, but she doesn't feel that psychologically it is enough to save one person's life. It may well soften the hard blow which life deals, but untill someone tells her a story of how wearing a band necklace saved their life when they got shot, because the bullet bounced off the metal and avoided killing them, or how a band collectively jumped infront of them and took the bullet she refuses to believe that the creativity of someone else is enough to satisfy your own wants to be happy.
"But it is exceedingly good."
However, Darla does love music. She likes bands like The Beach Boys and pop bands like McFly and Busted, and she also likes bands like Motley Crue. Oddly enough Darla is an Eminem fan, and has been for quite some time. Darla loves music - obviously - and likes to cover new bands, and she often does it extensively rather than just a tiny article. Darla does try to interview more popular bands, but often finds that she is bored by them even if they're saying something interesting. When they were smaller she had an interview with Panic! At The Disco and just couldn't wait to get away because she found them so monotonous. Darla likes bands who are close friends, who aren't afraid to show they're good friends, have a lot of energy and enjoy what they fully. She finds that these bands are rare and special in themselves, and she will cover them even if she doesn't particularly enjoy their music, covering them simply for the sake because they're truly a band - an assocation of people. Darla respects a band for having the balls to play an instrument live, whether or not she thinks they're good. Whenever she wonders why bands have fans she just reminds herself people like them for exactly the same reasons she likes the bands that she does.
::Item History::
Darla was born and raised in Wales, orginally being Welsh. She grew up there in a single parent family, her mother, Julie, was seventeen when she had Darla. Darla has never forgiven her mother for having her so young and being so irresponsible. However, when she was five years old her mother met Johnathon, a man who was ten years older than her mother, and yet the pair of them fell in love and got married. At first Darla didn't get on well at all with her new step-sister, Gina, but over the years the two of them became closer and understandably better friends. Both of them shared the same love and passion for music, and it was Gina that got Darla her very first journalism internship. Darla was eternally grateful, and she now works for a small independant magazine.
When Darla was seventeen her sister, having married a musician, decided to start a record label with her husband. Darla was invited to be an A&R and she accepted right away. She was over joyed to be able to go around and scout out talent for her sister and then have an involvement with the music that they made. Darla played music herself and understood how hard things were for bands that could go so very far. The label almost collapsed in 2006 but managed to hold on and is now making better and clearer progress than before. Darla is still in college right now, and will be for the next two years, after she completes college she will work full time as a journalist and an A&R, although neither is exactly a secure paycheck Darla likes to just go with the flow with her life.
Darla sometimes merits herself invites to tour with a band for a few days in order to write them a tour diary in an article. Darla loves touring with bands and being able to watch them, especially if it's a band that she likes. However, even when Darla dislikes a band it really isn't long before she either finds out for herself why she hates them or becomes horribly fond of them to the point where the music doesn't matter, and she just likes the guys because they're personable. Darla had a good family life, and moved to Los Angeles with her older sister when her sister proclaimed she was getting married in 2004.
