I love languages. Right now I'm pretty involved with Japanese;

well, since I'm an East Asian Studies major. Yes, I am interested in

anime & manga to some extent although I've become kinda picky

when it comes to that kinda stuff. I'm more so into the other aspects

of Japanese culture- like history! Ah, history, my true love! <3

I enjoy, sculpture and oil painting though I don't really have enough

patients for the latter. I have experimented with some interesting,

non-traditional materials too- like light bulbs and gummi bears;

resulting in pretty interesting stuff.

My current playlist includes: Nine Days (who I recently saw in concert-

hells yeah!) The Pillows (always), Weezer, Kaiser Chiefs, Marié Digby,

Utada Hikaru, nobodyknows+, Corrine Bailey Rae, Kenji

Oostuki, Homemade Kazoku, Incubus

My favourite films are: V for Vendetta, and Battle Royale

I'm a gamer. I absolutely adore Okami & Guilty Gear but I like Disgaea,

DoA, Harvest Moon and Civilization III too. Recently I've been

addicted to the SIMS 2 even though the micro managing gets annoying. ^___^

As far as books go Lizard by Banana Yoshimoto, and The Ink Dark Moon by

Murasaki Shikibu and Ono-no-komachi are favourites. I also recommend

Battle Royale by Koushun Takami and the Lotus Sutra.
