Hm where to begin?

Well I'm a 23 year old chick living in Ohio, I read fanfics all day every day. Seriously, I'd rather read than sleep most nights.. I recently graduated with a BS in Hearing, Speech, and Language Sciences and I'm going back to school to get my Sign Language Interpreter's Degree. I'm weirdly interested in accents and dialects and have a weird fascination with identifying where people are from based on the way they speak (it makes a great drinking game in a bar). Perhaps I should have been a linguist. I'm sort of nerdy in that way I guess...

I just started a fic called L.A. Bella, and I'm really nervous about how it goes. I just hope people read it, honestly!

I read a ton. Some of my favorites are Twilight (obvi), 2666, Memoirs of a Geisha, Harry Potter, The Good Earth, The Giver, any biography, Night, Interview with the Vampire... I could go on for a while.

Music is pretty cool too- I'm obsessed with classic rock- mainly Led Zeppelin, CCR, Neil Young. I'm also pretty obsessed with Radiohead. One day I could be listening to The Black Keys and Kings of Leon, and the next I'm listening to Lil Wayne and TPain or fucking classical music. Everyone should listen to classical music because let's be honest, that shit rocks hard.

I'm really competetive, something I picked up from the sports I was involved with growing up I suppose. I'm sort of a tomboy and have a ton of dude friends but I like to be girly every now and then too. I spend my free time hanging out with my chicks and dudes, partying and boozin, working out, reading, etc etc. You know what youngsters these days are into. I guess if there's anything else you want to know just shout a holler my way!
