So, who're you guys?

[Julia ♥♥]

I used to be real active on a pokemon site when I was like ~8/9 to 13 or so? I didn't realize it then, but I met a lot of diverse people through it. Since this is a beautifully run site, I'm assuming their is many different kinds of people here. So, tell me a bit about yourselves?

I'm Julia, I turned 17 on May 20th and I live in the US, in Delaware. I used to go by the nicknames of Luna, Adian, and God, not sure if they'll ever be randomly thrown around, but if they are... you know who they belong to. I work at McDonalds, love my job. I got nine piercings. six in my ears, two in my lips and one in my belly button. I've got a cat and dog. I'm a technojunkie and can Hardstyle/Dubstep/Jumpstyle like a beast. Raving is my drug of choice, among a few others. But hey, I'm not perfect. I used to write a lot, some good stuff so if you wanna read some, lemme know.


So, how about you guys?

[Nada]

Backwards introduction, but I am game!

I go by Nada here, but my real name is Nadia and I keep hush-hush on my real last name. I was born on February 17th, 1990 which makes me 20 years old. I've got two brothers, one older and the other younger. My older brother Ben is 24 and my (way) younger brother Patrick is 8. I also work at the Golden Arches as well, though I can't really say I love it because... it is McDonald's. No plans on being there all my life. No piercings, no tattoos, but my favorite hobby is going to the YMCA nearly everyday after I get off of work and do some recreational activities like jogging, volleyball, kick boxing, biking, and my favorite of all is swimming. I was also a Girl Scout from first grade all the way through my senior year. And since I live in Kansas, I am pro at dodging tornadoes and want to become a storm chaser to learn more about their deadly secrets.

[Alex]

Alex, Ultra, or Marine on here (Actually, now that I think about it I'm not sure anyone ever called me Alex. ) known more as Blaze on most RPGs. Real name's Drew (Lousy artist though.), last name is a no cause of my planned profession (Police officer. ). I was born July, 26, 1988 and am now 21. I have four cats and one dog as pets. Hobbies are shooting, video games, various martial arts, and sports (Mainly American football and baseball). Have a twin brother, named Elliot (Who of course likes the Army. ), that is two minutes older and an 18 year old sister, named Mina.

Live in Wrightsville, Pennsylvania of the US. I have yet to decide if I want to enlist in the US Marine Corp or not before going LEO (Law-Enforcement Officer), and am currently planning on getting a job in security until I decide. I have worked at Redner's Warehouse Markets in the deli, and FedEx Ground as an unloader. Zero tattoos and piercings. Huge Heavy Metal fan, I also like some J-pop and OSTs made for games (Specifically my favorite video game OSTs are from Brutal Legend, Guilty Gear, and the DOOM series.) as well as some Alt Rock, like the music by my favorite band The Offspring.

In terms of video games, been playing since Genesis days so I'm a huge Sonic fan. These days though, I own a PS3 (Second one, they both suffered general hardware failures.), a PS2 (Second one for same reason as PS3.), a GC (Second one since brother sold the other one.), an X-box (Not played due to 360.), an original run GBC, a DC (Second one for same reason as PS2 &PS3.), and my favorites, DS lite and 360 (Rather ironically I've had it longer then PS3 with not failures.). I even had a Virtual Boy (Oh how it hurt the eyes.) and Gamegear for a while. I am a huge firearms nut, of course mainly the AR-15 platform, in terms of pistols I like Glocks, 1911s, SIGs, and Beretta 92s.

EDIT: New finally: I am also a huge mecha fanboy, mainly through UC Gundam.

[Deleted]

I go by Marchbaby on the web but my real first name is Tyler. I am 17 years old and I live in Colorado in the US but I am originally from Baltimore,Maryland. I lived in Maryland for a little over 13 years until I moved out here.I have two brothers, a basset hound, a cat, and a turtle. I was once an admin of pokemonheartgoldandsoulsilver.com and I am also a member of quite a few wikis. I love video games, pokemon, Alvin and the Chipmunks, History, German, and just about anything to do with computers.I have 1 more year left of high school until I graduate and then I will be heading to college.Well that is about it for now.

[Julia ♥♥]

It makes me smile how Alex and March are, or in March's case were near me. Yay, East Coast baby. It's the best isn't it? >_> Horrible weather conditions, too hot summer and way too cold winters. Tell me Alex, did you suffer from four feet of snow like we did this past winter?

I'm jealous of you Nada, I wish we had a YMCA around us, I'm not at all active, which is a shame. D: Thank god for being young, and having a young metabolism. I know that not doing much will bite me in the butt in a few years. But I finish highschool next year, and will have all the time in the world to go outside. :3

[artmage]

They know me here as Artmage (for a good reason at at that), and I share Nada's first name despite us being halfway round the world from each other (I think)
I'm uh....23 this year, which probably makes me one of the older is not oldest member of the site. as such, I tend to take on a rather mother-hen/ government official filing paperwork role for the new guys.
As expected, I'm an art student studying film & animation, and hoping to go into my goddamn practicals soon. I'm a sort of artistic mercenary for hire. I do several home-based odd jobs in the freelancing business, namely character designs, storyboarding, 3D modelling and whatnot. This is namely because I'm probably the IRL embodiment of FMA's Sloth to an extent and picky with my work, so yeah. Though I'm trying out for some assistant positions in an office later on after my mom discovered my obsession for collecting information/ writing and rewriting speeches/ documentation.

Two siblings, both younger than I but taller; Alif (19, my brother) is my polar opposite though we get along pretty damn well. He's studying accountancy in Australia right now and we'll be visiting him later next month. Dina (13, my sister) the resident Otaku is still schooling and is predictably the baby of the family. Dad's in the oil business, mom deals with stocks and shares.

I'm from Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia; muslim and city girl born and bred. Been overseas several times, but hey, no place on earth compares Used to keep a couple of pets, but not so much now save for my cat, Amadea. Room is generally a geek hotbed w/ bits of pop culture kitsch everywhere; wrestling figures/ books/ magazines/ CDs, Transfomers toys, LOTR and Harry Potter booksets, Stephen Kings, Magic: The Gathering card sets, truckloads of X-Men comics, several manga and CSI merchandise. Basically, I think I probably stopped mentally aging when I was 20. Either that or I'm a seriously big kid crossed with a packrat.

Asides my geek interests as stated above, I also play the piano, draw and sculpt things (duh) and take up Fencing in my spare time. No tattoos, no piercings (other than the regulated singles on each ear..), no partying, smoking or anything of the sort. X3

[Nada]

Funny you kinda mention that about your parents, Art. That almost describes what my parents are/were into. My dad delivers gas from the oil refinery outside town and my mom used to kind of do at home business and stock exchange of some sort.

[Nixly]

hahahaha you have to be joking me!

Art, Nada, we can make a club!
My real name is Nadja.
slightly different then Nadia, but it's the from the same name. (It's the short form from Nadezhda, witch is also one of my used nicknames ^^)
I got that name with a meaning, and I'm very proud of it.
My parents had a lot of difficulty with babies. I was the first one to be born alive. My mom had some problems, and they though they would lose me too. In the end, i was born to early, VERY small, but everything worked, didn't need extra help (other then some meds to help grow a skull, witch I didn't have :3)
So they named me Nadja. It's Russian for Hope. That's why I'm so proud of my name.
But that's almost 21 years ago ^^ I'm celebrating my 21 birthday on the 6th October of this year
I love animals, drawing, Pokemon (DHU!) I have one younger brother (who's birthday is at 5th of ockober, and we hate it!), and I live in Belgium, Flanders, in the country-side. I did Art, animal-care, and now I'm looking for a part-time job&school.
I'm into manga's, and I'm currently collecting bleach. I love games, one of the ones I'm saving to play again, is WoW. I have a lvl 80 priest, DPS/Healer, if that means anything to you ^^
I got a pair of African Pygmy mice, Lubov and Vera, and they currently have 9 kids (witch I'm selling), a rabbit, Hunny Bunny, 2 cavy's Bello and Savanno, 4 mice, Achilles, Duifje, and her daughters; Speedy and MiraAngel and 2 dogs: Sammy, big and nice, and Vlekkie, small and my little treasure.

Nice to meet you all

[Nada]

I was always told that my name was French/Slavic. It was my mom who decided to name me Nadia, which I certainly am not complaining about the name- it is unique and pretty! But does kind of stand out in comparison to my brothers' names of "Patrick" and "Ben". Two traditional name, then one rare name... or rare for where I live. Never before coming to this site did I meet people who shared the same name as me. And wouldn't you know, the people have the same name don't even live in the United States!

[Julia ♥♥]

It makes me smile so much that you guys have the same, or semi same first names. I'm kinda jealous though. >o> *changes name to Nada to fit in*

[Nada]

STOP IT, YOU ARE MAKING ME FEEL LESS AND LESS UNIQUE ;;

[Alex]

In answer about the snow, yes. That snow caused FedEx Ground (Not just my branch, the entire east coast of FedEx Ground.) I used to work for to cancel the sort (Ended up being for several days.) for the first time ever since the company was created. <<

I must say though, that's a bit creepy about your names considering you all live in different places.

[Magnus]

Howdy! My real name is Michelle, but Magnus would do. I am Greek-Australian, and Magnus is from Sanctuary for those who know it, and I think the name is awesome I will be turning 21 this year and I have had nearly 6 years RP experience, ranging from advanced sites, to cbox roleplay. I have been on many sites, as well as admining a few and creating some of my own. I do enjoy my sci-fi, fantasy, and everything in between Just taking a bit of a break from Torchwood/Doctor Who-esq sites for the time being, and yet to open one of my own soon once I have that extra time.

I live all the way down under, in South Australia, so yeah, timezones can be rather annoying.

I have just finished studying 3D Computer Animation and Modelling/2D Concept Digital Art, so im in the tedious process of job-hunting! YAY! -NOT- Speaking of which, I am a female who enjoys video games, though you'd never guess. I do love my FPS to death, almost literally, and im pretty hardcore. I love my action/adventure/horrow/gore/scifi/fantasy type movies. None of that romantic crap. Other hobbies include Muay Thai Kick-boxing, bellydancing and hip-hop dancing.

Soo, thats me.

^_^

You name is French-ished the Russian don't use Nadia, but Nadja. The changed letter could come from France/Slavic. So those people could be right I asked it to a Russian guy I knew, and he told me it's one of the most popular girl names, together with Lubov (Love) and Vera (Faith). It's still a unique name

[Deleted]

I cannot believe I did not put this but since we are talking ancestry I am mostly German with a little Cherokee and a little British mixed in(I am related to John Smith who came over when the colonies were started).
