I am curious, patient, and quirky.

My Self-Summary

Call me Krys. I'm vaguely androgynous, like Transformers, pretty clothes, books, shopping, and am very scent-oriented.

I'm an outdoorsy girl, so long as it's warm outside. I do have an aversion to cold unless it's snowing. Then it's definitely frolic time! Lately I've developed a dependence on the internet, but that's more for social reasons than anything else.

I love animals, and have a parakeet and a dog. I have a tendency to try and pick up little snakes and various other critters. I HATE flying buzzy insects. Little honey bees are okay, but anything else tends to freak me out.

I like participating in the "eco" movement, but for practical rather than moral reasons. I'm a terribly practical person.

I ricochet between interests at any given moment, and I love healthy debates and good stories! Right now, anything to do with Transformers makes me obscenely happy. I'm kind of a dork. If you come armed with knowledge about giant alien robots, you'll more than likely be an instant friend. XD And lately, dragons have made a huge comeback in my interests.

I'm hesitant and polite on first meetings, but if given the encouragement I'm the kind of person who doesn't just come out of their shell- I trip over myself getting out in the open. I tend to talk with my hands.

I'm pretty open with my sexuality, but not with the actual sex. What that means is that I have no problems talking about sex, likes, dislikes, whatever. I think those are important to know... and frankly, just plain interesting. However, as open as I am about discussion, I'm extremely reluctant when it comes to the act. I do not have traditional views on the dating scene, and frankly, I'm not looking for a romantic or physical relationship.

What I’m doing with my life

I'm a senior at Willamette University, going for a degree in Environmental Science.

My plans thus far are moving to Florida immediately after graduation and moving in with SkyJolt and getting a job at a national forest... or just wherever will hire me. Ultimately, I'd like to get a job first in GIS fields and then in architecture and sustainable building practices.

Other than that, I have plans to travel extensively. I'm going to Botcon 2009 in May. (Edit: Went to Botcon, it was awesome and I met amazing people!) New plans involve going to Botcon 2010 and Auto Assembly 2010 in the UK, if at all possible. Cosplaying a human Hound in a miniskirt should be... interesting.

I’m really good at

Listening
Making fun of tv shows/movies
Reading
Gardening
Photography
Spending money on other people
Baking cookies
Bullshitting
Being oblivious
Worrying

My favorite books, movies, music, and food

I have a veritable library of books, but mostly manga. Fantasy and science fiction are weak spots of mine, with a smattering of sociological and anthropological case studies. Temeraire, Tithe, Petshop of Horrors, etc.

My favorite movies tend to be adapted musicals, like Phantom of the Opera and Sweeney Todd, but I also like Transformers, Labyrinth, V For Vendetta, Watchmen and others. I don't mind the occassional action movie. My favorite movie at the moment happens to be Wall-E. Cutest movie ever! (And it has robots. ROBOTS!) Comedies are good as well. Robin Hood Men In Tights and Hot Fuzz top that list. Most recent is District 9.

David Bowie is amazing, as are most every 80s rock band. I also like The Killers, The Duhks, and Pink... just about something from everything. My tastes in everything, including music, are extremely varied. You can't really pin me down for liking a genre of anything, though I tend to dislike metal, rap, hip-hop, and country.

About the only food I don't like is spicy. My preference is definitely sweet. Godiva chocolates make me swoon. Especially the rum truffles. My favorite foods are things like crab legs or some pork ribs, and my favorite pizza toppings are cheese with mushroom and onion. Not a fan of meat on my pizza.

The six things I could never do without

I spend a lot of time thinking about

Stories, sex, classwork, fantasies, escape routes, and what books I want to read next.

I have a bad habit of worrying about financial things. The best thing to do is to keep the way to the calculator clear in those situations.

On a typical Friday night I am

On the internet. Reading fan fiction or writing it, generally. Possibly reading a paperback. I'm not a party girl. I like staying at home and relaxing most of the time. Very rarely I'll go out and dance at a good oldfashioned Euro techno rave.

Oh, and I'm usually RPing with people like SkyJolt. Giant robot sex, dragons... I run the gambit.

Lately I've gotten into WoW. There goes the rest of my free time.

The most private thing I’m willing to admit here

-I don't trust people easily.

-My bed has Transformers bed sheets and I sleep with a furry blue body pillow with Optimus Prime on it. Best. Bed. Ever.

-I'm one of those closet kinky people.

You should message me if

You think we share interests and can be friends.

Keep in mind that I'm looking for friends only.

I need friends who aren't looking for validation and can take a joke and some teasing and don't mind if I fangirl.
