Ana Paula / 24
The truth is that I've been a lousy penpal to everyone who replied me a couple years ago. Mainly because I don't share interests with them. So, yeah, I would love to meet someone who likes the same stuff I do for a change. Otherwise, you know, the letters/emails start to get... well, boring. Trufax.
I'm a 24-year-old girl (I say "girl" because I'm still just a kid inside, but sure, woman would probably be the right word here) living in São Paulo, Brazil. Which means I speak Spanish Portuguese, as well as English. I like meeting new people, although when it comes down to it, I'm not very good at this "meeting new people" business. Maybe because it's hard to find someone who share the same interests as me. I'm a dork and I like dorky/geeky people. I have a theory that the reason I never find people like me out in the ~real world~ is because they are all at home either playing video games or wasting time having fun on tumblr the same as me. Or, well, because they all live far away and I'm forever alone here in this God forsaken place. Thank goodness for the interwebs, I say. Anyway. I love television. And movies. And I like taking random pictures with my phone. I own a few lomography cameras, too. I often talk to myself on twitter; I feel like twitter is my shrink, really, it's just such a good listener (lol). I probably need a Leverage rehab because, frankly, I'm addicted to this show, ngl. I often make references that nobody gets because nobody watches my shows/movies - people might think I'm crazycakes. Yeah, enough rambling, let's get down to the basics~, shall we?
