Nickname: Folks around here tend to call me Sakura, but I go by Lynn online.
Location: South Carolina, USA
Hobbies: Used to include riding my bike, swimming, reading, coin collecting, and beanie babies (yes, I know...). Right now it's mostly online gaming.
Music: Varies by my mood, usually. I've always enjoyed listening to the Oldies and a bit of the older MoTown music. Basically anything between 1960s and mid-1980s. I like some of the newer stuff as well, but not really into the hard rock/metal/rap type of stuff. Classic/contemporary rock all the way.

Favourate City my hometown : Seoul![]()
i could go on. but the mods would kill me ^^
I suppose I should do one of these...
Name: Gaendaal. For online purposes this is my real name.
Age: 30
Country: Scotland, currently. Born in Northern England.
Interests: Many, many different things...
I love travelling and have, in just the past few years, been to China, Japan, New Zealand and Australia amongst others. We've just signed up to go trekking in Peru next year (a charity event, as was the China trip) so that should be awesome! I also enjoy learning the languages of places I go to and, although I can't speak any of them fluently, I have varying levels of German, French and Japanese. I can say "hello" in Chinese but little else...![]()
I also love literature of various kinds. I'm currently reading a history of burial and graveyards in London, a book on string/M-theory, a Fantastic Four graphic novel and the collected adventures of Conan the Barbarian. This is a pretty even mix for me. I also enjoy writing stories myself; I'm working on an on-going steampunk/fantasy series which I'm publishing myself as limited run journals. It's also available on-line in a draft form though the Oort Cloud writers' website.
The final of my three main interests is music. Sweet music. I'm one of those annoying people who always says "everything" when asked what they like and it's pretty much true. There's no one style of music that I COMPLETELY dislike; just now I'm listening to a band called Saltillo who are a kind of cross between DJ Shadow and Delerium via a string quartet. This morning I had a few hours of primitive black metal with Xasthur, Striborg and Nox. I could list all the bands that I'm enjoying just now but I'm afraid that I'd make Azrael's list look a bit small...![]()
I'm also actively involved in the music scene in a number of ways. I run a few nightclubs and do gig promotion in Edinburgh with some friends. We've had some great nights and are getting a bit of reknown in the scene we work in, which is great. I also review music for the Heathen Harvest website as well as interviewing musicians as and when I can. If that wasn't enough, I'm also in a few bands: Wraiths (a noise/drone thing where I mostly howl and play instruments I've made myself whilst my colleague bangs things, we've just had our first CD released), LVTHN (a computer based ambient solo project, just had a CD out as part of a series for a label in the US) and Sigillum Dei (sample manipulation experiments, sending out demos just now).
Various other things I enjoy: Indian, Mexican and Japanese food, good beer, photography, camping, walking/hiking, board games, working for charities and so on.
Random fact: I was threatened by Darth Vader as a small child.
Ok my turn!

Location: London (the Canadian one)
Interests: I like art and music, ie doodling and listening to my favourite bands. I love reading and writing almost equally, though I haven't been doing much of neither lately. Besides that, other random things I like include gaming, anime, chocolate, cats and working with children.
My biggest passion, I have to say, would be my awesome boyfriendHe is an inspiration to me in many things I do.
![]()
Music: I like rock, j-pop, metal, screamo and progressive rock the most. But also instrumental music rocks. Some of my favourite bands/artists include Taking Back Sunday, Evanescence, AFI, Yuki Kajuira, Yoko Takahashi, Ayreon and a bunch of others.
Anime: My favourite anime ever is Vampire Hunter D: Bloodlust. This Ugly Yet Beautiful World and Death Note are both tied for second place, I s'posse. ^^
Occupation: Currently I'm entering my last year of high school. Once I get out I plan to move in with my boyfriend, and then work on our future together. I want to become either an optometrist, or a pediatrician. (I'm taking a co-op course this year that should help me decide.)
Other random facts: I have the cutest cat in the world evaaar. She's lovely, and one of my best friends.![]()
When school is finished, I want t make a bit of money and travel, at least for a week or two. I want to take my boyfriend to visit my native country of Slovakia, so he can see where I grew up and meet my awesome (dys)functional family.
