NAME: Ellie

AGE: 24

INTERESTS & HOBBIES: Reading (mostly in English) and writing (mostly in French). I watch a lot of TV (Friends is my ultimate favourite, right now I'm watching Castle, Revenge, Big Bang Theory, HIMYM, 2 Broke Girls...). I'm webmaster of Harry Potter Fanfiction where I spend a lot of time, founding member of Héros de Papier Froissé and editor for the Éditions HPF. I have a bachelor's in biology, a diploma in translation, right now I'm a freelance translator/editor, and in September I'm planning on going back to university to get a diploma in publishing. And music. I love music. Mostly hard rock and symphonic metal, but I also have popera, classical and korean hip-hop in my playlist.

LOOKING FOR: People who talk about a wide variety of things. Who comment once in a while (not necessarily on every entry, but enough so I know they're reading my journal). Experience has taught me that I don't like having Tumblr-like entries on my reading page, people who'll post just a picture or a bit of text multiple times a day.
Oh, and anyone who's read The Castings trilogy by Pamela Freeman has my undying love.

ANYTHING ELSE?: I'm an LJ survivor, just made the switch, and my reading page over here is feeling quite empty.

ALSO KNOWN AS: ellinou on Livejournal.

Going to add you!

Adding you right back!

I'm an LJ survivor too, and I definitely hear you on my reading page being rather light.

I like to think that I post about a variety of topics, mostly just my life in general--I own & operate a bakery, I have a pet cat and a boyfriend, I'm interested in all manner of things, I attend college, do art, etc. I'll go ahead and add you & you can see if you like what I have posted so far. :)

I also love reading (Harry Potter is my favorite always & forever, I've read it out loud to my boyfriend twice so far).

I'll add you straight away!

Hmm...

I post about all kinds of stuff including speculative fiction, environmental and social issues, photos, etc. I'm particularly interested in linguistics. Feel free to drop by my journal and see if it appeals to you.

Re: Hmm...

[sound_of_silence]

I'll definitely check it out! I was doing a minor in linguistics while I was studying biology.

That is such an awesome combination.

Mine was Rhetoric/Women's Studies. I took one linguistics class in college but it was really disappointing; I've done more studying on my own. Biology is one of my favorite sciences too; sometimes I do detailed zoology and botany under my worldbuilding. I once designed an entire food web of sea monsters for the shared world Torn World, of which you can see the introduction here:

Adding you!

I've had my journal for quite a long time now and it's so sad many people are leaving LJ too, so I made the switch. I think DW is great and I love it's simplicity...though I still crosspost to my LJ too. ^^

I love to meet new people and share interests. I'm a CiviL Engineer and you can read more about me in my opening post. I hope you'll add me back as well. ^^

[sound_of_silence]

Of course I'll add you back!

Thank you very very much!!! ^^
