General Name/Nickname: Amanda Age or Age Group: 30s Country: USA Pronouns: they/them
You Do you have any hobbies?: crocheting, embroidery, writing (I'm getting back into it, slowly but surely.) Do you have any interests, that wouldn't fall under a hobby?: I'm attempting to learn to paint and am not sure I enjoy it, yet, but I like trying new crafty stuff. Any dislikes?: I have a primal dislike for dirty refrigerators and microwaves. And I also don't particularly care for current TV dramas. Drama for the sake of drama isn't executed in a way I find entertaining. Are you into fandom?: I'm not nearly as active as I used to be, but I'm kind of getting that groove back and may start posting fic again. Most of my activity was within Kpop fandom (EXO ♡), but I also really enjoy some anime and read fic, browse fanart, contemplate series-inspired jewelry or crochet patterns. What does your day to day look like?: Wake up before eight AM, fart around online a bit before parking myself in front of the TV to watch cartoons while crocheting until lunchtime, after which I work until nine PM and then watch more cartoons or just go to bed.
Entertainment What do you like to watch?: My favorite genres are mystery, horror, and period dramas. Forever favorites are Scooby Doo and Looney Tunes, though. I enjoy cartoons from the 40s-70s the most. There's a growing interest in British TV mysteries and dramas, I've noticed, as well. I recently got into Midsomer Murders thanks to my mother and went on to watch Bergerac. I'm rewatching the anime Natsume Yuujinchou now. What movies do you enjoy?: The Aristocats, Pride and Prejudice (2005), Big Hero 6, Spirited Away, Hitchcock thrillers, House on Haunted Hill (1959), Halloween (1978), Halloween 2 Do you play games? If so, what do you like?: My favorite video game is BioShock 2, but I enjoy survival horror and mysteries in board game form, as well as video game. If you like to read, what do you read?: As much as I'd like to read the classics for the sole purpose of finding out what makes them a "classic," I've largely given up on them... Still pick them up now and then to try reading; I'm a couple chapters into War and Peace and Dracula. I more enthusiastically read mysteries and any genre manga, if the style is pleasant. Currently, I'm reading the Moomin stories. What kind of music do you listen to?: As long as the beat's good, I'll listen to anything, but I'll seek out metal and pop music. Polka and bagpipes are in my blood, too.
Journal & Friending What do you post about?: daily and crafty stuff How often do you update?: I post crafty stuff biweekly and may or may not throw in a personal post as well. What do you look for in a DW friend?: Mutual interests as well as someone open to sharing some of their lives and thoughts, not someone solely invested in fandom or media that I'm not familiar with. What do you like to read about on your friends page?: daily overviews, off the cuff musing or deep thoughts, pet stories Do you have any kind of friending policy?: Not really; I ask new people to go to my guestbook and post an introduction, but I'll typically add those who add me after letting me know. Do you have any deal-breakers?: Nothing that I feel I need to list; the usual -isms and -phobics need not apply. Is there anything others should know before friending?: I like to change my journal layout and userpics fairly often, so if you associate a user with images rather than name, I may seem like a stranger. ;;
