I play trumpet, flute and bass guitar, and I've just started taiko. I'm also way into British indie rock and classic rock. I'll also have to say Harry Potter; the Death Note live action movies and manga; cooking; and a variety of sports, including soccer, baseball, tennis and badminton. Oh, and languages.

Name: Annaving Location: Va, USA Why do you love Japan: I've been a casual anime fans for years. A little after that, I really got into a couple manga series (mainly Hana-Kimi). After being a devout fan of the Hana-Kimi manga, I was excited when I discovered that it had been adapted into a Japanese Drama. So I watched the drama and it rekindled my interest in Japanese pop culture. I watched additional dramas (Hana Yori Dango, Akihabara@Deep, Honey and Clover, Kurosagi, Kimi wa Petto....) and even become very interested in a lot of JE stuff-- mainly NEWS, Arashi, or Ikuta Toma. I began a self study program of Japanese about a month ago using a variety of different learning materials and softwares. I plan to visit Japan after I graduate college or as soon as I save up enough money. Ever been to Japan, if so where: No, but I plan to visit some day Interests: - Japanese dramas / music / ect of course - Art (Digital Art mostly) - God and Religion - Hanging out with Friends and normal teen stuff Other Gaian Hang Outs: Mostly the Breedables forum. I've been hiatusing for so long I feel kind of out of place now. Other Online Hang Outs: Recently I've become quite the lurker at: http://forum.tomalicious.com/ and various Livejournal blogs and communities Personality: Uh, I'm somewhat introverted. I'm somewhat of a nerd as well which usually causes my RL / Academic activities to be very stressful. But I'm pretty easy going and tolerant... I dunno. Any other Additional Info None that I can think of...
