Favorite Fate/Stay Night Noble Phantasm: Of the ones I’ve seen so far, it’s a tie between Bellopheron and Excalibur.
Anything else?:
I'm a graduate student at Binghamton University majoring in Translation Studies- in other words, I'm studying Spanish, Japanese, and German. I used to be a vegetarian, but gave it up for the sake of my health. Ironic, isn’t it?)
I love anime; it takes up most of my free time. However, I don't really consider myself an otaku. I tend to stand up for what I believe in, but, as I said, I don't hold grudges against people for their beliefs unless they make no logical sense or are directly threatening the right to hold my own beliefs.
Besides anime, I watch documentaries, American cartoons, and MTV. I'm not much into "popular" culture, because it's the same old thing over and over. However, when I've latched onto something I like, I will analyze it beyond belief.
I also like good food (even though I’ve currently been on a diet and lost 70 pounds), good sex, and I don't really worry about if I'm doing anything wrong because to me there really isn't a "right" and a "wrong". However, I do have the intellect to protect myself from possible dangers that may come with the territory. I have a very independent/nonconformist streak and I don't really give a crap about societal mores- just my own.
In the past, I have been violent towards other people; however, now I take pains not to hit anyone, even though my temper can flare up like you would not believe. I've overcome a lot of adversity in my life (bullying, abuse), and I have seen it's not really worth it to strike back at other people, even though I'd still like to inside.
My decision-making style changes radically from task to task; sometimes I'll strategize something or think it through, and sometimes I will look before I leap. It almost seems to be a spontaneous change; my thoughts usually organize themselves.
