that's right, i'm a game. B/
no actually, those are just my ideal ps button controls. x: anyway, i thought i might try out halo's introduction game thread thing! \o/ because i had a lot of fun reading hers. so... i guess i can give it a try. i'll also try not to bore some of you who already know me like the back of their hand. e 3 e ;;
ONE you all know that i am called riot, because i felt like going by a more hardcore alias toinvoke more fearmake myself more outstanding. dropping the ego-facade aside, i used to go by as rain, so... hello there, people who knew me from fxf. :')
TWO i've been rp-ing for a solid... six years now? i started RP when i was twelve, now i'm almost turning nineteen so oh boy, years sure do fly by. :/ i also have an age complex; well it's more bitterness about feeling the effects of senior age when i'm just freshly legal. woeeee.
THREE my ethnic background is chinese, but for the asian peeps out there i'm half-northern shangdong and hong-kong...nese. :U supposedly that means i'm supposed to get the best of both worlds (tall height from northern china, slim build from hong kong) but that never really happened in the gene-pool-mixing when my parents decided to have me so i end up a little taller than average hong kong girls and shorter than most... people. :C being short has its cute appeal, and being tall is sexy. being in the middle is like trying to imitate either style, so screw you, deity of baby-making out there in the heavens.
FOUR going along with my ethnicity, i can speak cantonese somewhat fluently. my reading is well, average but it's like really basic. 8C terrible thing is, ever since i started to learn japanese about four years ago, my perception on the chinese language has been... so to speak, japanified. my eyes read kanji now. not chinese. sadly.there's no turning back
FIVE wow! i'm almost nineteen which means i'm already in college. |D for those who must know, i'm studying for my bachelor's degree of applied arts in animation at sheridan college. \o/ the program's real fun but the tuition fee is not. which makes me a poor art college student. so yes. a starving artist is not just a stereotype. it's real. 8C
SIX i have been misinterpreted many times because of how i look. needless to say, back in my youth i found little sense and need to grow my hair out long all nice and pretty like the rest of the girls in my class and as a consequence i sheared it all off for the sake of swimmingmaster swim team yessss. backtrack to highschool, i've been marked as somewhat... androgynousas illustrated by those 4-komas out there. |D woot, riot is a pimp and she doesn't even know it!
SEVEN speaking of which, i just sheared my locks again recently. i love the breeze and the freedom short hair comes with. ; w ;
EIGHT i have two cats. one is called mocha and the other one is called zelda. i got mocha five years ago at a pet store because my mom thought she was the darnedest, cutest thing ever. turns out mocha is like the devil's spawn ten times over. she's a neurotic psychopath cat who has schizophrenia and is so paranoid she would claw your guts out to save her own hide. i have battle scars to prove her treachery. i still love her, but lately she's getting kinda fat and heavy to hug and hold, so my love is kind of fading. as for my other cat zelda, he was a stray kitten my friend found in his backyard. yeah, we accidentally named him zelda 'cuz we thought he was a she at first. 8I why we named him so? because he and his brother and sister were a trio, and together THEY MAKE UP THE TRI-FORCE \O/ *nerds*
NINE i am a gourmet. raze can vouch for this fact. i love to try out new dishes and ethnic cuisines, and it seems like from all the advice and talk i give about cooking you think i'm some sort of great chef, but i'm not. my cooking is like from beyond the seventh gate of hell. trying to make vegetable soup once turned my tongue numb. i'm surprised i didn't send myself to the hospital. oh, and i have a habit of letting things catch fire. bottom line: i am not a woman meant in the kitchen, otherwise there will be no woman nor kitchen at all. 8C
TEN i've been in the site-making business for about a year and a half. that's also as long as the time i've started to make skins since. well, i'm quitting the skin-making business soon from PB, so it was a good run while it lasted. adios!
ELEVEN i am a giant tales of fan. otaku sounds a little too insulting seeing as i'm not a die-hard fan to play eternia or rebirth or whatever. 8C but if a game is localized for a game station i own, then i will save up money to buy it. which is why for you tales of nerds out there, AITEMU NAZO TSUKATTE JANEEEEE. and you will do fine in life. ( ` - ` )b
TWELVE doesn't everyone have that weakness they have for certain archetypes of manga/anime characters? oh yeah, it's called moe. my moe is apparently blonde-haired males or kendo-trained short dark-haired males (or the ones that just wield a katana). *scratches head* as for girls, i like the ones who are small, bubbly and cute but not too cute because then they irk me and give me cavities. but the small ones that kicks ass. yeah.
THIRTEEN my favourite food of all time is egg on rice with soy sauce. i kid you not.
FOURTEEN the very first anime i watched was a magical girl parody anime series called super pig. yes, the main heroine turns into a pig. for you uneducated members out there, there is a wikipedia entry on it, amazingly enough. but srsly. this is the kind of mahou shoujo animu i grew up with. and a parody no doubt.
FIFTEEN speaking of animu, my most favourite anime/manga would be shaman king. i've been a fan since junior high which is a good solid five years of loyalty. after kang!zeng!bang!, i fell it love with it again. * 3 *
SIXTEEN you know those super packs you buy for halloween trick or treating? the ones that usually come with smarties, kit-kat, coffee crisp and aero bars, right? well, i generally will eat anything that taste good but my favourite brand would be coffee crisp. B]
SEVENTEEN no, i don't eat the red ones last. i eat everything last. that means i eat everything first. >B[
EIGHTEEN i am a rare shiny pokemon that cannot be caught by a mere pokeball. aka i lurk in the ungodly hours of the night. 8U
NINETEEN i prefer peeled peas because i'm lazy like that. edamame is the only exception. B|
TWENTY i'm going to cut this intro thread at twenty facts because i have to go and i'm lazy like that. oh, i guess fact # 20 is that riot is super lazy. go figure.
