Intro Post
Hello! :) This is the semi-friends only blog of a shy and quiet marimo that goes by the name Jane. She is currently studying in a local university in Surabaya, Indonesia, taking the Visual Communications Design course.
Here she posts ramblings, rants, and random bursts of discoveries about everything and anything, including but not limited to art, anime/manga, fandom, school, and herself. She thinks this blog is a good way to release pent-up thoughts and bottled-up feelings.
Here are some things about her (in point form):
☂ Her fandoms include Axis Powers Hetalia, Gintama, Mushishi, Aria, One Piece, Kino no Tabi, Baccano!!, Bakemonogatari, Natsume Yuujinshou, Doctor Who, Community, White Collar, Ace Attorney, FF9 etc.
☂ Her favourite pairings are USA/UK, Belarus/Russia, Greece/Japan, Austria/Hungary, Switzerland+Liechtenstein, Hungary+Japan, America+Japan (Axis Powers Hetalia); Gintoki/Tsukuyo, Okita/Kagura (Gintama); Doctor/Rose (Doctor Who). She is a monoshipper and the seme/uke thing doesn't matter to her; love is love!
☂ She is an Anglophile who wishes to go there someday just to eat fish and chips, hug a red phone box, and see Stonehenge.
☂ She is a cynic and optimist simultaneously.
☂ She is an idealist and a romantic at heart.
☂ She is an aspiring artist/designer.
☂ She loves all things related to snail mail (stamps, postcards, etc), vintage stuff, royalty/monarchy stuff, old books. Her other interests include archaeology and dinosaurs, Japanese culture, encyclopaedias.
☂ She reads. Her two favourite authors are Neil Gaiman and Haruki Murakami. Her favourite books include His Dark Materials by Philip Pullman, Abarat by Clive Barker, Lord of the Rings by J.R.R. Tolkien, The Time Traveler's Wife by Audrey Niffenegger, Then We Came to the End by Joshua Ferris, Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen, How I Became Stupid by Martin Page, Brave Story by Miyuki Miyabe, A Short History of Nearly Everything by Bill Bryson.
☂ She also reads a ton of manga.
☂ She believes that unicorns, dragons, and the Loch Ness monster are real, as are other mythical creatures.
☂ She has pet hamsters which she loves very much.
☂ Her favourite artists/bands are New Found Glory, The Spill Canvas, Snow Patrol, Owl City, Vanessa Carlton, Five for Fighting, Fall Out Boy, The Rescues. She listens to Irish/Scottish folk music and anime songs, too.
☂ Her favourite quote is: "May your coming year be filled with magic and dreams and good madness. I hope you read some fine books and kiss someone who thinks you're wonderful, and don't forget to make some art -- write or draw or build or sing or live as only you can. And I hope, somewhere in the next year, you surprise yourself." -Neil Gaiman
