Yo! My name is Nariko (not my real name, but it'll do)! So, you wanted facts about me? Well, here they are!

Location:
At the computer screen. Well, to be more precise, or un-precise,Canada. Yay Canada! And to anyone wondering, yes, I live in an igloo, as do all other Canadians where we freeze our butts off...just kidding. No, there are no igloos. Or maybe there are way up north, but I think they've modernized by now...

A funny igloo story:
In grade six, we had pen pals from somewhere in the USA (I forget where) and one of my classmates wrote to his pen pal talking about how cold it is and how we all live in igloos and hunt for polar bears and the such and the guy believed him and went running to his teacher (who actually taught at my school before she moved)...without waiting to read the end of the letter, where my classmate said he was only joking. My class had a good laugh when we found out!

Anime/manga (including ones I don't watch anymore):
YuYu Hakusho, Gundam Seed, Naruto, Shaman King, .hack//SIGN, Inuyasha, Vision of Escaflowne, Digimon, Beyblade, Yu-Gi-Oh, Fruits Basket, Hikaru no Go, Spirited Away, Rurouni Kenshin, Fullmetal Alchemist, Gundam Seed Destiny, Kyou Kara Maou, Juvenile Orion, Cardcaptor Sakura, Death Note, Azumanga Daioh, Witch Hunter Robin, Fushigi Yuugi, Eureka 7(+), Trinity Blood(+), Bleach, Samurai Deeper Kyo(+), Ouran High School Host Club, Cowboy Bebop, Fate/Stay Night, Trigun, Vampire Knight, Rosario+Vampire, Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicles, and I think that's it for now. Probably not, but whatever. Also, the ones marked with a plus sign (+) mean that I haven't finished the series yet. And I know stuff like FMA is still going on in the manga, but if there's no plus it means I am up to date with them.

Fave books:
Too many to list. But my all-time fave is Harry Potter. I also adore Tamora Pierce's fantasy quartets. And the Inheritance trilogy by Christopher Paolini (though only two books are out...). DUNE!! (One of the best books ever...) And anything by Garth Nix. The Lost Years of Merlin series by T. A. Barron... Tears of Artamon trilogy by Sarah Ash... Mists of Avalon... Da Vinci Code and Angels and Demons by Dan Brown... The Symphony of the Ages series by Elizabeth Haydon... Um... There are, of course, others...but I can't keep track of them all. If I did, it would be even longer than my list of fave anime men...

Hobbies
Reading, writing, singing, acting, watching TV, reading manga, watching taped anime episodes over and over again, the computa, playing sports (ringette in winter - I'm a goalie; softball in summer), swimming (in summer of course), talking with friends, watching anime on youtube, and I think that's it. I like a lot of things...

Stories of mine:
I've got four stories up so far and two are finished...its a Gundam Seed one, about a girl named Rin who is Nicol's sister and wants to avenge him...but then things change. My other finished story is The Feline Curse, a YYH fic with an original character of mine. It's also the story format of the quiz version I have posted on quizilla. I decided to turn it into a story since I liked it so much. Sequel is out now! It's called I Almost Fell Right Through, But I Held On To You. Named after a song by Ryan Cabrera called On The Way Down.

Attention people who read my Gundam Seed fic! I made a stupid mistake in my sixth chappie, thank you to the person who pointed that out, because I know full well that reverend Malkio is blind and yet I wrote that he saw Rin's battle...really stupid of me. However, I am too lazy to change it (can you believe me?) so let's just say he knew what happened during the battle through what the little kids tell him, okay? Thanks and sorry for the stupid mistake!

In a reporter-like voice: And now back to the profile.

I now have one oneshot of fanfiction! It's called "A Pathetic Creature" and it's about Roy Mustang from Fullmetal Alchemist. It's my first ever oneshot, and reviews would be much appreciated. It's a pretty depressing fic, since it takes place just after the Ishbal war when Roy was contemplating suicide.

My Spirited Away fic is on a temorary, maybe even permanent, block. It's been a long time, I know, but I honestly have no idea when I'll get back on track. Sorry.

Stories to come:
Further down the road, I might make a Harry Potter fic once I get all my other projects done, or else I'll just stick with anime. Possibly a Naruto fic too, or maybe even Fire Emblem or Bleach...time will tell. I'd really like to either make my very own Digimon or Gundam series, but I really don't know at this point... I also have a funny one-shot idea for a Naruto fic but I don't know if I'll ever get to writing it. That's it for now.

Other random info you don't need to know but I'm telling you anyways:
I'm insane. And I have a dirty mind (though you probably can't tell). And don't let my current calmness fool you. I am crazy. So there.
