Myspace Codes - Myspace Generators - Myspace Backgrounds
Well, my name is Mariah but many of my friends usually just call me Maia for short.
If and when I go back to school, I want to major in Japanese at university with a possible minor in linguistics. Or maybe linguistics major with a minor in Japanese. I adore language and my hope is to someday work as a translator for a manga company, or perhaps teach English overseas.
However, if the job I work at now proves to be a good career for me I have no problem staying here as well. If that's the case, I might be moved down to San Luis Obispo at some point. :x Eek. My favorite color for as long as I can possibly remember has been PINK and I use it wherever I can. ^_~ I'm also an avid Hello Kitty fan, so beware. I think when people see the kind of cute things that makes you want to melt a little they think of me. *smile*
When I'm not at work I like to hang out online. I chat over MSN, AIM and play frequently on World of Warcraft. Probably my favorite game ever. Or at least my most addicted. My characters are mostly Alliance on the server Proudmoore, and my main (Halrenna) in the guild Ruined. I also have a warlock on the server The Venture Co. in the all-girl guild Our Crits Are Real.
I love anime and manga. ;) That's a given. I'm also a fan of BL (boys love, yaoi), though I can't stand the slash (non-canon fanfiction) variety. So please don't talk to me about your Harry/Draco fixation or how "hawt" Cloud and Sephiroth would be together.
Every year I go down to San Jose to volunteer as a Rover for Fanime Con . I love it down there and it's a great vacation. ^_^ This last year I actually didn't volunteer and just went with a group. I own two cats—Daedalus and Thistle-chaser. I also recently bought a California kingsnake and named him Burton. ^_^ If you get the reference I totally love you.
