Eri-Chan's Homepage: Home of Me and "Braider of the Lost Art"

About Me

I'm a college student, with a major in Anthropology/Archaeology and a minor in Classics. Greek mythology makes me grin. "Braider of the Lost Art" is the name of my Renaissance Faire Hairbraiding business/hobby, located in the Texas area. I've only officially done one faire so far (I've braided for fun at more, though), but I intend to go to many more. I have to stick to smaller faires, due to the price of setting up.

My Interests

Right now, I have developed a dangerous obsession with costuming. *sigh* My poor budget. I love to read, play on my computer, be with my friends, and read some more. I generally love anything Japanese or Celtic, but only speak a little Japanese. Sewing is currently my pastime of choice, and my Hikitsu costume is coming along beautifully, if expensively...

I'd like to meet:

Um...a good husband? Ha, ha. Yeah right. Seriously, right now, I'm reasonably happy at school, with my books, and have no celebrities on my list of must-meets. Of course, anime characters don't count, since the voice actor and the character are completely different. I'll think of someone eventually, I'm sure...

Music:

Most of my music comes from Japan, in Japanese. I love anime soundtracks, as well as music by current sensations like Ayumi Hamasaki and Megumi Hayashibara. Other than that, I love the Oldies (50's and 60's)! Celtic music also makes me very happy.

Movies:

The old Star Wars, and all the Star Trek films. Indiana Jones 1 and 3 are among my all time favorites, and probably have at least a little to do with my pending archaeology degree. Also, I love the LOTR movies, and am perfectly okay with them being different from the books. Anything sci-fi will generally get watched at least once.

Television:

I've been dragged into watching Stargate: Atlantis, and must admit that there are amusing bits; Ronon and Dr, McKay tie for my favorite character. Other than that, I have a tremendous interest in Japanese anime, and watch it in all varieties (I don't like most English dubbing, though). Currently I'm working through Princess Tutu and Hundred Stories; I just finished Fushigi Yuugi, and I love it! (Check for me at AnimeFest dressed as Hikitsu)

Books:

Sci-fi anthologies are my personal friends. Also, the fantasy equivalent. LOTR was a lovely series the second time I read it. I'm ridiculously fond of the ST: Next Generation paper back books. Anything Asimov also makes me very happy...so do Japanese manga.

Heroes:

Um, personally? I'm guessing we're not talking the comic book kind... Drat...

My Blog

First post!

Okeedokee, several people now have bugged me to start one of these, and I figured that summer would be the best time to finally give in. So, here ya go. It'll probably be a little sickly for a wh...
