'K, well... I have plenty of passions in life, some of which are piano, art, and vollyball. I hang out with friends whenever I get the chance, and I love to eat! Though I really have to stop before I get fat . Aside from that, things involving my storie(s) are that thus far they have been Ranma 1/2, (I kinda started a Rurouni Kenshin one), though I like a lot of other animes and books. I enjoy criticism, because it creates a better story. I may be writing the story for myself, but I'm also writing it for your own enjoyment, and I'd like nothing more than to create your ideal story as well as mine. However, on the flipside, I reserve the right to defend my choices and feel reasonably offended, should you go out of your way to hurt my feelings :). I hope you consider my work worthwhile, and I would love more feed back if at all possible:)

You Do not Have to read My entire Life Story Which I Have Printed Below :), But If You Are Interested, There Is A Large Self-Centered Rant Below That Focusses Mainly On Me. Hey, That's What The Profile's For, Right?

Height: Unfortunately, about 5' 5 1/2", and I haven't grown since the 8th grade...

Weight: No self-conscious female in her right mind would relate that information to anyone. I'm no exception. XP

Gender: Well, if you didn't catch the hint above, you don't need to know.

Age: older now, but not by much. high school still looms ominously over my happiness like a big scary storm cloud.

Favorite Anime/Manga (Not necessarily in order): Ranma 1/2 (obviously), Inuyasha, Cowboy Bebop, W Juliet, Wallflower, Case Close (Or whatever it's called), Rurouni Kenshin, Yu Yu Hakusho, Alice 19th, Tsubasa, Fruits Basket, Marmalade Boy, Paranoia Agent, FLCL, Forbidden Dance, Trigun, All of the Dragon Ball Z series', Fushigi Yugi, Wild Act, Crimson Hero (!!volleyball!!)... blah, blah, blah. The list goes on forever. I like 'em all. :)

Favorite non-anime novels: I like the book Ender's Game, and I hope I can continue to read that series by Oson Scott Card. I'm also a fan of Steven King... gotta love The Shining. One of my favorites that I read in English Class was Les Miserables by Victor Hugo, and its one of my favorite broadway soundtracks. Mm... really like the Twilight series by Stephanie Meyers. Also, I just finished reading Wuthering Heights by Emily Bronte, and was pleasently surprised at how much I enjoyed it. And my favorites from this last year by FAR were East of Eden and The Fountainhead. (and kitchen God's Wife). Anyway, sorry, I kind of get carried away when I talk about reading.

Little Tidbits about the author: I absolutely love quotes. I love to quote things from poems, novels, movies, historical documents, songs... anything. You may have noticed this in a couple of my stories... what can I say? It's an obsession. :) I love to do any kind of classical art... If I had the time or resources, I might try to post something somewhere... but for the most part, I'm absolutely hopeless when it comes to technology. (Specifically computers). I've been heavily into art since I was a wee little child. Now I'm mostly into life drawing and studio art. So far I've taken art every year, which is why I'm cramming my senior year in sign language because I need two years of a "foreign" language to graduate.

I love volleyball... something I picked up freshmen year. My senior year's hanging over me like an oncoming bubonic plague, and thus far we've had a new coach, (or two) every year. Yes, high school just screams 'drama' (loudly, and with many a shrieking whine). But I also love soccer, which I've been doing for much longer now. Don't really have much to complain about there though. Very reliable sport.

I've taken piano for a few years now, and I'm finally up to my last year. Hm... a luxury I'll miss in college. At least I have the opportunity to play some Chopin, Schumann, Bach (Eeeewww), Pride and Prejudice, Final Fantasy, Phantom of the Opera, and hopefully many, many others.

Some favorite quotes/poems: Well, most of them you will see printed in my stories but...

"Horse sense is the thing a horse has which keeps it from betting on people." - W.C. Fields

"It is better to keep your mouth shut and appear stupid than to open it and remove all doubt." - Mark Twain

"Heaven goes by favor. If it went by merit, you would stay out and your dog would go in." - Mark Twain

" Deep into the darkness peering, long I stood there wondering, fearing, doubting, dreaming dreams no mortal ever dreamed before..." - Just a piece of Edgar Allan Poe's, The Raven

"...When the stars threw down their spears, and watered heaven with their tears, did he smile his work to see? Did he who made the lamb make thee?... " - Part of William Blake's poem, The Tiger

"To accomplish great things, we must not only act, but also dream; not only plan, but also believe." - Anatole France

"The supreme happiness of life is the conviction that we are loved." - Victor Hugo's, Les Miserables, spoken by Fantine

" If we listened to our intellect, we'd never have a love affair. We'd never have a friendship. We'd never go into business because we'd be cynical. Well, that's nonsense. You've got to jump off cliffs all the time and build your wings on the way down." - Ray Bradbury
