Thank you for visiting my profile! Since I'm sure you wouldn't want to know that much about me I'll just state the basics. I am a 20-year-old Canadian woman born and raised in Toronto. My name, well, I won't give that tidbit of info out to anyone unless you at least PM me first. I don't really know how to romanise my Chinese name, but the closest I can get it romanisation is Jiaying (pronounced GUY-Ying) I'm half Chinese (Hong Kongnese) and Canadian (British, Irish, German, and Austrian) by the bye. If you want an image of how I look, picture a chubby girl, 5'8"1/2", with long curly dark brunette hair, chocolate brown eyes, a large bust and a generally fair complexion.

I am an aspiring writer, I have already finished some writings, though I could have more, if I could just figure out a way to get it all out of my head and onto paper properly! Right now I'm putting my writing career on hold though, as I have to focus on university first. Well, that, and the fact that I haven't the foggiest idea how to get my stuff published! I'm quite certain I will one day though, but if anyone has any suggestions on how to go about getting published, feel free to go ahead and PM me.

I am quite random, and, dare I say, crazy at times, I love to meet random people every day. My fav food is Chinese, I abhor books being ruined (i.e. folding pages, tearing out pages, the whole book getting wet, etc.) and people who ruin books. I love to watch rain, especially when it falls down in torrents. I love to meditate in the outdoors when it's nice enough. I enjoy writing and conjuring up stories or poems that push borders, or are outside of the box at the very least; I have quite the imagination, or so I've been told. I'm obsessed with the Victorian Era, I would live there if I could, though not as a woman, even though the dresses are pretty wicked from back then. I love to read anything to do with chemicals and chemistry occasionally. Wikipedia is my savior, no kidding -- I go on that site at least once a day.

Some of my interests are: reading, writing, singing, music (any kind, mainly rock though), anime, manga, D.Gray-Man, the Victorian era, PotC (Pirates of the Caribbean) (all of them), xxxHOLiC, anything from CLAMP, Bleach, Death Note, cooking (somewhat), baking (somewhat), Ratatouille and the list goes on and on, I have a fuller list on my LJ (link below).
