About Me

So my profile is boring because I'm too lazy to find cool backgrounds and things. Forgive me.

As for me...at the moment, I'm devoting most of my time to studying Linguistics at UCSB and playing computer games sometimes.
I do a little sculpting, pennywhistle, and belly dance. I also do some singing, fencing, sewing, archery, writing, role-playing, and drawing. These are all things I love very much, but...I'm not very good at them yet. I'm working on it.
It's my dream to start a circus/performance troupe with weird, like-minded people who are interested in bringing some more joy into the world. Message me if you know how one can go about doing this...
I'm a vegetarian and my hair is currently red with henna. I should probably get some tattoos and piercings one of these days, I feel boring.
I love tea and wine (but not at the same time), and I especially love icewine. Buy me some and you can have this: Other than that, read my interests.

Music:

Hedningarna, Corvus Corax, Garmarna, Gjallarhorn, Yat-Kha, Silly Wizard, Dead Can Dance, Qntal, Voltaire, Last AmAndA, They Might Be Giants, Gorillaz, Oingo Boingo, Wall of Voodoo/Stan Ridgway, The Poxy Boggards, Mediaeval Baebes, Abney Park, and more. Usually what I like best is fusions of modern and traditional music, but I can think of at least one band/artist from each genre that I like.

Movies:

Television:

I don't like to watch TV, but I watch these on DVD (or YouTube, lulz): The Singing Detective, The Prisoner, The Simpsons, Family Guy, Fraggle Rock, Animaniacs, Pinky and the Brain, Friends (shhh), figure skating, Naruto (Japanese version), The 10th Kingdom, FIREFLY!, Whose Line Is It Anyway?, and some others too. Does Red vs. Blue count?

Everyone who creates, and who finds what it is that moves them and follows it.

My Blog

The siren-song of this silly site.

Hmmm. I wonder how long I'll stay with MySpace this time...I'll try not to leave again, but we'll see. Just in case, here are some other bloggy-things I frequent: http://www.livejournal.com/users/valk...
