It is high time that I update my profile, so off we go. I am: College junior, wildlife biology major, trombone player, soccer goalkeeper, runner, recovering anorexic, weight lifter, reader, writer, artist, closet romantic who isn't sure she believes in romance for herself but loves to discover true love in what she reads, grammar freak, animal lover (see major), water skiier, outdoor junkie. I read: The Lord of the Rings, The Dresden Files, Young Wizards, Charlie Bone, Ayn Rand, The Wheel of Time, Game of Thrones, Harry Potter, Jane Eyre, Life of Pi, Frankenstein, The Silmarillion, Wicked and subsequent sequels, Tamora Pierce's Tortall books, Jane Austen, Artemis Fowl, His Dark Materials, P. G. Wodehouse, Percy Jackson, and multiple other fantasy, adventure, and classic literature. I watch: Star Wars, Modern Family, V for Vendetta, The Lord of the Rings, Once Upon a Time, Pirates of the Caribbean, Iron Man, The Avengers, Seinfeld, Tim Burton's older stuff (Corpse Bride and earlier), The Lion King, most Pixar, most Disney, Star Trek, Marvel I listen to: Rock, alternative, classic rock, jazz, world, soundtracks, instrumental, classical, some rap, some pop...so, pretty much everything I obsess over: Mr. Gold/Rumpelstiltskin, Paton Yewbeam, Aragorn, Han Solo, Severus Snape, Tony Stark, Erik, Fitzwilliam Darcy, Spock, Captain Jack Sparrow, and Edward Rochester (along with numerous others, but my love for these gentlemen will never die). My OTPs: Rumbelle, Paton/Julia, Spock/Uhura, Tony Stark/Pepper Potts, Aragorn/Arwen Long-winded, rambling profiles really aren't my thing, so I try to keep mine relatively concise. I will say, however, that writing is an outlet for me, a means to express myself while at the same time escaping from the real world for a bit. Keeping in course with this, then, I have the unfortunate habit of posting fics and updates in waves, as I will suddenly be besieged by a flood of inspiration and write four or five works, while at other times I will be too busy with reality (unfortunately) to keep up with the site. However, I promise this: just when you've given up all hope for me, I will show up with an update or some new oneshot...it seems to be my trademark now. | |||||||||
