1. Tell me a bit about yourself. No more than a paragraph. Talk about whatever you think is relevant, be it interests, or height, favorite Mass Effect manufacturer, whatever.
Well, I'm a 16 year old female named Tanzi. I lived in Belgium for four or five years, but have since moved back to my native country of Ireland. For the Leaving Cert I'm taking Physics, Chemistry and Biology along with higher English, ordinary Maths and European Section French. I'm hoping to study Veterinary Science in university. I'm a part-time vegetarian, but only to lose weight when I feel crappy, so no moralfag here. I'm also something of a grammar Nazi. I'm just about 5 foot, and my hair's currently quite short. It's brown (natural colour) at the moment, but sometimes it's pink. I like animals, vidjagames, the Internet, computers, horse riding, reading, writing and music. I have a little sister who's 12, and my parents are together. I have a very cute dog, and a very silli other half ^_^
2. What's your favorite part of the Escapist? Forums, videos, contests, advertisements, articles? Is there anything you'd like to do, but you're too afraid/unsure of how to try?
I like the videos. Yahtzee's probably the main thing that brought me here, like many others, no doubt. It's been an awfully long time since I've been on a new forum, so I'm rather reluctant to post here. Mainly due to the fact that I hate feeling foolish, and I'm quite paranoid about what people think of me, but I'm not pretentious or self obsessed.
3. If you could describe your life in music, how would you do it and why?
Varied. I listen to most everything, from Gangsta Rap to Trance to Industrial. Anything and everything, which I suppose suits, as I'm open minded and always changing.
4. Are you right or left-handed?
I'm right handed, and even though left or right handedness isn't genetic, I'm the only person in my close family (immediate and cousins, uncles and aunts, grandparents etc) who isn't left handed. Strange, huh?
5. How are you feeling right now? (Don't knock it, it's a really important question. Feel free to go on at length.)
Right now, at this very second, I'm actually feeling a little off. I'm slightly nauseous because I was playing Half Life on my laptop and if was far too close to my eyes, and I think I've just had an emotional day. Stress in school, a lot of trekking around, argument with my parents. I'm quite tired, but I've been sleeping a lot. Sounds like depression, but it'll pass. That happens too. Sucks man.
6. Do you have a religious belief, and without going into too much argumentative detail, is it important to you?
I'm quite agnostic. I looked into the whole Satanism thing (aww yeah UberGawth), and I didn't like it. I dislike the idea of Christianity and other such religions, and while polytheistic religions seem to make more sense, I have no urge to follow them either. Essentially, as far as I'm concerned, believe in whatever you want, jut don't let it intrude on my life. How non committal is that?
7. If you could go to a convention for any form of fandom, what fandom would it be. Do you have a specific convention in mind when you answer this question?
Probably a convention subjecting itself to a band I liked. I'm not really into any of the Japanese type things (weeaboo I ain't), and while I enjoy classic comics, I would feel no need to go to a comic con, except maybe for shits and giggles.
And were Nine Inch Nails to get Treznor off his lazy ass and back to making me feel elated every time he opened his mouth, I'd go to that convention.
8. Finally, what's your favorite food item? Any particular drink or wine you like to go with it?
I can never answer this. Ever. I have no real food preference.
I suppose I like Gnocci, the little potato pasta things, and a plain tomato sauce. For dessert, probably some kind of Cheesecake. I drink beer, but not spirits or cider, and wine costs too much for me to afford. Non alcoholic beverage preferences include Dr. Pepper and Coke.
There you have it.
I'd post pics, but it'd be weird, 'cause I don't know anyone's name
