I'm Tanya, currently 20 years old and a sophomore in college. I'm majoring in Asian Studies with a minor Japanese.
I want to have friends all over the world, so I'm open to anyone. I have a pretty good sense of humor, I like to think, and I run just a bit on the talkative side.
Requests
I'm learning Japanese, so any help with that is welcome. (I'm currently suffering through honorific forms, so if I start changing levels of respect on you, that means I'm studying.) I had a brief stint with Mandarin Chinese but me and the tones could not get along. I'm also interested in learning Korean.
Language Exchange Requests
I'm learning Japanese and Italian, so any help is appreciated.
Hobbies & Interests
Writing and reading are my hobbies. I'm an avid horror fan but shun romance.
Favorite Music
Currently having a fling with Cage the Elephant, but prone to randomly going back to Gackt with a side infatuation for DBSK/JYJ and Super Junior.
Favorite Movies
3:10 to Yuma
Moon Child
The Infection
I'm a rather shameless horror fan.
Favorite TV Shows
NCIS, but I don't really watch TV.
Favorite Books
Warren Ellis' "Crooked Little Vein," which both amuses and appalls with its frighteningly true messages.
Anything written by Augusten Burrough I am prone to loving.
