About Me

Hello!

I am a University student trying to expand my horizons and learn all I can about everything I can! I am quite shy, so I thought this could be a good way of getting involved and meeting people wherever I go. Hopefully, when I get a place of my own, I'll be able to become a good host.

My hobbies include playing the guitar (or tring to, at least), watching films (bring those B movies and zombie films!), fawning over animations and sending postcards. I enjoy anything related to folklore and legends, fantasy, the paranormal, mystery or plain weirdness. Art is also interesting, altough I can not always undersand it. I also like reading and have a hard time resisting the charms and allure of illustrated books. Please, stop me before I get in the Children's Section of any bookstore or library. Even though it has been a while since I last wrote anything other than an essay paper, I do enjoy writing whatever the scenery, a conversation, a shadow, a song inspires me to (according to my friends I seem to have a quircky mind).

I am not a huge fan of polite conversation or small talk; I would rather listen to people talk about their interests, adventures, thoughts on books and films or whatever nonsense we can come up with.

Finally, Octopuses and Squids are on the TOP 10 list of most adorable animals.

Sorry for such a long ramble. I look forward to meeting you! :)

Have a great time (not just a day)!
