Author has written 3 stories for Card Captor Sakura, and Lord of the Rings. I'm incredibly passionate. piss me off, too bad. make me love, you're in the club. love-hate? you're killing me, damn you. great passion for film, reading, writing, drawing, greek mythology, history, books, literature, poetry. books and music are things that I will never survive without. stickmen and funny monster drawings and random poetic lines scrawled on my lecture notes. I don't have a perfect pitch; I'm horrible at playing the piano but I still play; I can't always come up with a perfect tanka or haiku on the spot, but I love it all anyway. they're the intangible or tangible things that allow me to breathe and survive.
There are perceived differing facets to my nature. happy-go-lucky, optimistic, cheerful and almost ever-happy or pessimistic and cynical? it's a matter of perception, but I'm not as carefree as people would love to think me to be. see what you want, lies or truth. I like to be silly, madcap and random and nutty. I love to make people laugh. Life is already so unbearable and miserable at times, so why not some laughter? most people need a tranquilizer seriously.
I've learnt that many associate sugar-high attitudes with happiness and freedom (thus the perception of me as a happy person without a care in the world. hmph. whatever flicks your switch seriously. those damned fools.) unfortunately, I'm dead disillusioned sometimes. currently seeking revelations, knowledge and most of all, freedom, whatever it is.

as for writing, I'm taking a hiatus. I will finish up Switcheroo, but I have to face the facts that my exams and results are more important than writing fanfiction. fanfics will not be my future or my life. face it, it's capitalism and meritocracy, people.
I also do have an account on fictionpress, under the same pen name.
However, I do thank all the supporters and reviewers. Thank you very much, guys. It's really fantastic to know there's much support and welcome out there, and constructive criticism. :)
