Well, would you look at that.

Tumblr seems to be down at the moment... so I'll just rant here. I'm stuck in the house for the next few days because I just had surgery on my foot and it HURTS! Still feels kind of heavy due to the anaesthesia (did I even spell that properly?) and all that stuff, but at least that icky wart thing is gone... >_<

Well, at least I have plenty of time to catch up on Bleach and KHR... and since I've got this much free time I ought to introduce myself properly.

The name (well, screen-name) is Elora, and I'm a 16-year-old nerd and writer-in-training. My anime-related interests include KHR and Bleach (as I said before), and basically anything action-packed, though I'm known to enjoy the odd shoujo series from time to time. I've been studying Japanese since I was nine and will be starting French next year, so anyone who speaks either of those can feel free to contact me. I wouldn't call myself a "hardcore" fan, for I like many, many non-anime fandoms, but since this site focuses on anime stuff I'll mainly be talking about those here. Nor am I the "KAWAII DESU DESU" type, so please, please try not to talk like that around me. I understand how tempting it can be, because trust me, I've been there before, but I find it a little childish... a simple "It's cute!" will get the message across just as well.

I love music, mostly in English, but definitely also enjoy many J-pop groups and the odd Korean song (not just Gangnam Style). As far as English-language artists go, I love Mumford and Sons, Birdy and Birds of Tokyo (my friends say I'm a hipster, and honestly I'd have to agree there xD) My favourite Japanese band is Asian Kung-Fu Generation, and I could probably name loads of their songs if you asked me

And obviously, I'm a big fan of cupcakes (the icon, dude!) I've seen gifts on people's profiles here, so if anyone could give me cupcakes, I'd appreciate it

Peace,

Elora
