Is it possible to summarize myself for others? I've known myself for the last 21 years. That's a lot to fit in a text box...

I like the quiet moments.

(Let's take over the world together.)

I'm currently in my third year of college and abroad in Japan, studying Creative Writing and Asian Studies with a focus on Japanese and Thai language.

I plan to be a literary translator in the long run, but somewhere along the line I might go to graduate school for linguistics.

learning new languages, yoga, Tang Soo Do, in-person conversation, adventure sports such as rock climbing and whitewater rafting, drawing, photography, painting, reading, writing critiques, and poetry.

I've been told I suck at goodbyes.

I snort when I laugh (and I laugh easily), and have extremely pale skin.

I have Itachi-like bags under my eyes which prompt a lot of questions about my health.

I love most types of food, barring deep-fried and greasy. Japanese food is my favorite area of cuisine, but I'm addicted to the stuff my Vietnamese housemate used to throw together.

Too many books to name, but a few of my favorites are: Harry Potter, A Song of Ice and Fire, Battle Royale, Things Fall Apart, Deadline, Hero, The Hobbit, Heir Apparent, Sunrunner's Fire, Kissing the Witch, Companions of the Night, Good Omens, Sandman, Transmetropolitan, Y: The Last Man, etc. Alice Walker's poetry is divine. Anything by Neil Gaiman is gold in my mind.

I love movies and television shows that actually make me think. I like psychological thrillers and/or gore fests, and recently discovered a love of Asian horror films.

I love music. Period.
Cloud Cult, Florence + the Machine, Apocalyptica, Blue October, Sigur Ros, Ingrid Michaelson, Vienna Teng, Depeche Mode, and Muse cover just a few of the artists I listen to all the time.

Civil rights, sex, money, cuddles, poetry, existentialism, kittens, and the question to the answer "42."

staying in (usually reading or writing), or clubbing.

I say I'm bi because it's easier than explaining to everyone what a pansexual is, or the subtle difference between pan and bisexuality.

Please don't ask me what a pansexual is. Look it up. >:|

You've actually just read my whole profile.
Face it, you're interested. ;)
Right now I'm looking for girls to date, I am NOT looking to date men (with the possible exception of those who push gender binaries).
