This is me. Yes, strange as it sounds, in some sense I consider myself a north-African wildcat. (No, I'm not crazy!) If you want to know more about that, look up "therianthropy". And take what you find with a pinch of salt, it tends to be rather badly misrepresented - and associated with werewolves, which automatically gives it less credibility. No, I don't turn into a cat once a month. Or at all.
As for goals in life... well, quite honestly, they are sketchy at best. I'm slowly (ever so slowly...) working towards a Bachelor's in History - with a concentration in Medieval Western Europe. Awesome time period, that, and so underappreciated. The Renaissance gets all the publicity. Fie on thee, Renaissance!
In the meantime, I'm trying to start up a portrait business, based online. I like to think that I'm quite good at that sort of thing, but we'll see if I'm good enough to make money off of it. I'm really trying to get it started as soon as possible, because I need money towards moving to Virginia come August. Anything to be closer to my Justin.
He is my one true love.
On a lighter note, I enjoy random doodles, reading a large variety of fiction and nonfiction, writing trivial but fun scripts for IRC (where I spend far too much time), dressing up my avatar, and very casual gaming. PotBS <-- click that link! has got to be the one game that I really look forward to playing, ever. It's just a shame that it's going to be coming out at such an awkward time; I won't be able to play it right away. C'est la vie.
