Hi,
I'm a 23 year old English literature student. So as you probably guessed I really enjoy reading - scifi, fantasy, literature, chick-lit, thriller, drama, humour, even well written teen and children books, …. Pretty much anything as long as it isn’t too depressing or scary!!! The same goes for movies, I stay away from movies that would have me crying the whole time or screaming and hiding behind my younger brother - since I don’t see any reason to try and actively embarrass myself!!!!
About a year ago I discovered manga and fanfiction and I have to admit that reading Yaoi / BoysLove / Shounen Ai / Slash … or whatever you want to call has become a guilty pleasure of mine. And I’m slightly jealous of all those wonderful Fanfic writers and manga translators out there, even though I love reading I couldn’t for the life of me write a decent story!
Besides reading, I enjoy swimming and I have just signed up for “zumba” - a kind of African dance sport where you have to jump up and down a lot. Supposedly it is a great fat buster, but since I’m not the most sportive person I’m not sure how long I’ll keep that up J!!!
For the rest I go to uni, try and keep on top of all my work, go out with friends and shop - I’m a girl ;)!. Oh and we just bought a Play Station 3, so I’m attempting to not die in the first 5 minutes of all the new games we bought.
As you can see keeping an internet diary is not one of my hobbies, so I won’t be writing all that much on this journal. I mainly got it so I could read the wonderful fanfics and review them, since I think it is very important to show your appreciation as a reader. Because I know I would give up as writer if no one encouraged me or showed their gratitude.
Well Toedelpips
Nieke
