My self-summary Propose an edit

I hate those things. Writing about yourself gets so tedious, doesn't it? Anyway. I'm 22 years old and have been living in Canada since 2006. I grew up near Hamburg, Germany, and miss it a bunch.

I love computers, my friends (especially my best friend whom I've known for 14 years), drawing and painting (mainly digital art with my amazing wacom tablet), photographing, music (couldn't live without it) & movies. I also play World of Warcraft and am of the belief that Portal > everything. /geek

I'm also happily taken, sorry guys!

I'm a dreamer at heart. I love reading, it encompasses my mind. It's incredibly hard to get my attention when I'm lost in a good book.

I'm easy to get along with. I despise attention whores and men that think they're God's gift to women and if you're neither, you're probably ok in my book.

I have a good sense of humor and am surrounded by quick-witted friends, so that keeps me on my toes. I like being spontaneous and I love the outdoors and going camping (provided I'm in good company) in summer.

I want to see the world. Traveling makes me happy and feel at peace. Not much in life beats being on a plane as it takes off and watching the world get smaller and smaller, or watching a sunset from above the clouds. My biggest goals are visiting New Zealand, Japan and Egypt right now, but there's lots of other places further down on the list.

I take some sort of camera everywhere I go.

I have recently become obsessed with penguins. That means I have a bunch of penguin plushies, penguin key chains, a penguin desktop for my PC, cell and PSP, and bunch of penguin panties and a penguin suit for my cat. (Okok, j/k on the last one.) Either way, penguins rock my world.

I'm agnostic. I love my life, I love my friends and that's all I need to make this lifetime a memorable stay.

If you want to contact me, keep in mind I'm 22. If you could easily be my dad, age-wise, it's really quite creepy to hit on me and I'll be staring at my screen with a raised eyebrow, delete the message, and move on with my life.

OkCupid: Now in German!
Für meine deutschen Besucher:

Hi Leute! Ich heiBe Mandy, bin momentan 21 Jahre alt und lebe seit November 2006 in Kanada. Aufgewachsen bin ich in Buchholz in der Nordheide in der Nähe von Hamburg. Demnach bin ich ein norddeutsches Waldkind, was mir ein spannendes Aufwachsen garantiert hat. :) Nach meinem Gymnasiumsabschluss 2004 habe ich zwei Jahre lang eine Ausbildung zum Grafikdesigner genossen, diese aber abgebrochen, um nach Kanada zu ziehen. Trotzdem habe ich noch vor, diese Ausbildung lokal abzuschließen, da es mir einfach zu viel Spaß macht!

Momentan genieße ich den schönen kanadischen Sommer, arbeite Teilzeit in einem Büro und passe in der Zwischenzeit auf mein kleines Kätzchen May auf, mit dem mich mein Mann vor Kurzem überrascht hat. Sie ist ein kleiner Teufel, also habe ich beide Hände voll!

Ansonsten gehe ich gern mit Freunden weg, zum Bowlen, an einem der schönen Seen baden.. außerdem lese ich gern, schau gern mal einen Film im Kino an und ja.. ich geb's zu, ich liebe das Internet und Videospiele!

Ich freue mich immer über Grüße von zu Hause! Schreibt mir! :D

What I'm doing with my life Propose an edit

Back in Germany I studied graphic design, the move got in the way. As such, I'm only working part-time right now but aiming to combine this with going back to college quickly.

I also work as a German administrator for Okcupid. Yup, this very site.

OkCupid: Now in German!
Wie bereits erzählt starte ich gerade ein neues Leben in Kanada. Dies ist nicht ganz einfach - neues Land, neue Umgebung, neue Gewohnheiten, neue Leute, neue Freunde.. ich vermisse alles und jeden zu Hause! Nichtsdestotrotz liebe ich mein Leben hier.

Ich arbeite Teilzeit momentan, will den Job aber recht bald mit College verbinden, um meine Ausbildung abzuschließen und dann letztendlich richtig durchzustarten!

I'm really good at Propose an edit

Drawing, photography, listening, giving advice, being a WoW encyclopedia (lovingly dubbed Thottbot as nickname), shopping (I had to smuggle something stereotypically female in there), grammar & languages, writing and making sense.

OkCupid: Now in German!
Tja.. irgendwie bin ich immer diejenige, bei der sich meine Freunde über Liebesprobleme ausheulen können. Also bin ich gut beim Ratgeben? :) Außerdem bin ich recht passabel was Computer, Zeichnen, Sprachen/übersetzen und Geldmanagement angeht.

The first thing(s) people usually notice about me Propose an edit

Physically? Well, we're talking about first impressions, so it has to be physical, doesn't it. Most likely my hair/eyes. I tend to get random comments from strangers about those parts.

I'm also pretty clumsy, so if someone catches me running into a mailbox, they'd probably notice that first.

OkCupid: Now in German!
Das Erste.. hmm. Also vom Aussehen her wahrscheinlich meine Haare oder meine Augen. Werde darauf oft auf der Straße angesprochen.

Bin außerdem ein kleiner Tollpatsch - falls mich jemand erwischt, wie ich grad in eine Laterne laufe (was öfter mal passieren kann ;)), würde das wohl die erste Impression sein.

Was meine Persönlichkeit angeht, bin ich wohl eher ein bisschen reserviert, wenn ich jemanden noch nicht kenne. Ich wärme aber schnell auf, sobald ich jemanden kennenlerne!

I spend a lot of time thinking about Propose an edit

Where I'm going with my life; whether I've achieved a decent amount for my age; money; my parents and grandparents that I miss indefinitely and the future in general.

OkCupid: Now in German!
Mein Leben und wieviel ich bereits erreicht habe; was ich in naher Zukunft erreichen will; meine Eltern und Großeltern, die ich sehr vermisse und generell meine Zukunft.

On a typical Friday night I am Propose an edit

Out with friends (LAN parties, drinking nights, bars, etc), out or if I'm feeling lazy - home, watching a good movie or playing games and cuddling with my kitty.

OkCupid: Now in German!
Das Typische eben.. entweder trolle ich mich irgendwo mit Freunden rum (LAN Partys, Saufnächte und ähnliche Begebenheiten) oder verbringe auch mal eine ruhige Nacht zu Hause mit einem guten Film und meinen Lieben (Mann und Kätzchen).

The most private thing I'm willing to admit here Propose an edit

I take great comfort in coffee. If you really want to make my day, a huge skinny hazelnut latte will do the trick. You could tie a ribbon around it, too. For effect.

You should message me if Propose an edit

you're not stupid, horny or desperate. I'm always looking for new friends that share my interests or are up for a good debate.

Chances that you'll get in my panties or, for that matter, my e-panties = 0. Fair warning. If that's all you're after, I suggest moving on. I'm happily off the market.

OkCupid: Now in German!
...du intelligent bist und mich nicht nur anbaggern willst. :) Ich bin hier, um neue Freunde zu finden und meine Verbindung zur Heimat zu erhalten. Falls es dir genauso geht, schreib mir!
