Another LJ migrant! With a lonnnnggg intro. Hey there.

[falcons_honour]

Hey, all. It seems this place is pretty busy at the moment with LJ migrants, and I bet at least some of you who have this community on your reading lists are getting thoroughly sick of long intros. Hence and therefore, because I'm a considerate sort of critter[*] and because this is blasted long, I'm going to cut mine. Major facts and interests cut-tagged below: click if intrigued; questions and comments always welcome!


( Hi; my name is Lex. Or Falcon. Either's good. )

I'm 23; 24 in May 2012;

I'm part Polish, part English, part Scottish... have lived in north-east England all my life, can just about fake a decent-ish Scottish accent (don't ask why I'd want to; it's a quirk) and speak less Polish than I would like;

I post fairly sporadically, though I'm trying to get better at being a more regular journaller;

I have eighteen (nineteen if you count an industrial as two) active piercings, three tattoos and until relatively recently sported a deep green streak in my over-long hair and for some odd reason, people still tend to peg me as responsible (it's possibly the well-spoken accent I've got going on); and

I'm studying English Language & Linguistics with a minor in Education, with a view to eventually lecturing in Linguistics.

( A bit more detailed background info... )

( I write things. Not just journal entries. )

( Occasionally, I draw things, too, but I wouldn't count on getting regular art posts. )

( I'm (possibly) pansexual, (definitely) bigender and (diagnosed) unipolar depressive -- though I try not to make a big deal of it; I just thought it was fair to warn you. )

( Films, books, TV... and fandom. )

( ...and all about the music. )

( I have a few journal policies, but they're so laid-back they're practically horizontal. )

In closing...
If you actually read all of that... you must be really bored, or else I'm more interesting than ever previously thought. Even if you just skimmed through and are intrigued, I'd love to hear from you. Drop me a comment here or on my lock post, and I'll be happy to do a mutual add.

See you around!
-Lex

This is my second time doing this, the first time being in 2010. So. Hi again, group. My name is Kazi. You can skim my last post by clicking: Here

• 26 years old
• American
• Photographer

Interests:
• Knitting
• Role Playing
• Photography
• Languages
• Dog Training

Shows that I enjoy: Bones, NCIS, Archer, House, True Blood, COPS, Community, Misfits, Lost Girl, Life - Trauma in the ER, The Walking Dead, Vampire Diaries, Firefly, Stolen Voices - Buried Secrets, Once Upon a Time

What to Expect: A good bit of my posts contain information about my day-to-day life. Sadly, that also entails my battles with this crazy body of mine and the depression that comes along with it. There will be a lot of photo posts, hidden behind happy little cut tags to save your friends list.

I also live with what I call 'the pack', a group of people that are my best friends in this life. In total, there are five us here, and every day is a new adventure.

While I comment and post as much as I can, I often fall in a short spell of not doing either - though I do continue read my friends list daily.

Who I'd Like to Befriend: Common interests are nice, but I'm not terribly picky so long as we get along. I'd prefer that your posts aren't 90% fanfic, as I am on here to make friends!

Hello, everyone! I have been on DreamWidth (left LJ during Strikethrough/Boldout) for quite some time, though I have neglected this account somewhat lately (I blame university). I am getting back into the swing of journaling again and wouldn't mind additions to my reading list.

A little about me:

The bulk of my journal will be discussing school, offline life in general and my partner of 15 years (whom I refer to as Writer). Pictures will sometimes be posted, as will embedded video and interesting links or downloads to music. Cats may be mentioned at some point (I have four). Occasionally, I may mention fannish activities for the things under the cut below. Less bulky will be struggles with depression and DID, weight loss, and money - but I tend to sit in silence many times on these things, so you won't get a lot of that - just when I have to explode (and even then, it is placed under a cut).

I am currently entrenched in academia - having gone back to school after job loss in the newspaper industry. I am almost within sight of graduation! I am majoring in two degrees (history and anthropology/archaeology) with two minors (global studies and gender studies)  attached. My main concentration of study is East Asia. I speak some Japanese (but am not fluent); I love Chinese mythology, Korean dramas and Japanese music. Kawaii-ification is my downfall - I cant stop buying all the cute things (as evidenced by my edamame and my nyanpire plush). I also work in one of the academic offices and play with their webspace. Occasionally, I volunteer my time as a conversation partner for foreign students learning English.

I love to cook, exercise, surf the web, listen to music (it is my caffeine!), read read read, and do lots of other miscellaneous stuff that I am sure that I wanted to mention but will only remember after I have posted this.

I am looking for people that don't mind my reading them without always depending on comments. I am not the best commenter in the world, so if that is important to you then I may not be right for you. I do give feedback and thinky thoughts when I can, but I get busy and just forget to get back to you as most of my journal reading is fit in between classes or during work hours.

I need to upload more icons and sort out my tagging system in my journal...someday, someday.

Similar interests would be great, but not required. Open-mindedness and gay-friendly is a must.

Here is the fannish interest stuff:

( Fannish interests ahoy! )

Hello. It's been a really long time since I've done one of these...

So I'm a livejournal transplant, like so many others. But what can you do about that!

Here's the fun part, the part explaining a little about who I am;

( A cut, just in case! )
