Other stuff
- I'm a hopeless romantic. I've written my share of bad love letters and dedications to radio stations. But happily, I'm taken at the moment by someone I deeply care about.
- I have three cats. Their names are Spot, Tiger, and Vagabond.
- Music is a very big part of my life. I like almost any kind and I love both listening to and making it.
- I don't own a lot of manga and I don't own any anime. Just about all I've seen/read was borrowed.
- This is my umpteenth attempt at making/finishing a website.
- I got involved in filmwriting mostly because of my boyfriend, who is very talented at it.
- I've been drawing ever since I could hold a crayon; it's one of my absolute favorite things to do.
- I've been writing poetry since sixth grade (for the most part).
- The most important person in my life is my best friend, Chelsea.
- I don't believe in love at first sight.
- I update my livejournal all too often.
