Hiya! I'm Aldalena (Lena for short).

Some info about me:

Name: I have many... fwahaha ahem don't mind me...

Gender: female

Age: I'm in high school...

Appearance: Um...typical Asian...? ;

I was born to a Japanese parent and a Korean parent. However, I've spent most of my life in America and haven't had the chance to fully learn Japanese or Korean... Wah~ T_T But I am slowly learning the languages and cultures. _

I love Asia, anime, manga, drawing, bishounen/biseinen, archery, horseback riding, nature, music, reading, sugar, chocolate, origami, shiny stuff, learning foreign languages, learning about foreign cultures (especially Asian ), traveling, writing/reading original stories, fanfics and poetry (though I rarely seem to finish what I write)...
