# About me
Who. Am. I. That question of identity, of the self’s place in a comparatively narcissistic society – a society which values the essence of being different as desirable, yet which attempts to be different in the same way…ahem. Sorry. I get carried away sometimes.
I’m afraid I don’t really have an answer, except to say that I’m a university student, studying a double degree of Creative Arts (major: Creative Writing) and Arts (major: English Literatures). I love me some learnin'!
And that I’m a nineteen-year-old Christian (feel free to ask me anything, I don't bite!) who is frustrated with the late release dates of most films in Australian cinemas, who also likes to read (but starts many more books than he finishes), and gets irritated when drivers don’t use their indicators. Tut-tut.
And I’m a Grammar Nazi. That is all.
Words are my life. Dreaming is my fuel. Imagination is my sanity. God's love is my motivation.
I'm a special swing admin over at DailyLitRecognition , so please suggest any good literature pieces you see. More information and my guidelines can be found here .
Si x D L D s , two D D s, and still counting (hopefully)!
You can find me on my blog, tumblr or Twitter!
Also, the picture way up there? Yeah, that was a gift from my good friend MWBlueWolf . He's seriously awesome, and you should take a look at his page!

Hello! Thank you so much for making a favorite out of my deviation "Remover!" That was a looong time ago, but I've been practically extinct from dA up until yesterday, and couldn't recall if I had thanked you...Better safe than sorry! Thanks a plenty, friend!

Yeah, sounds about right
I'm going to China for two weeks in December, so I'm excited about that, but also really nervous. I don't travel very often, so it's kind of a big deal.
Do you have any plans for over the Christmas break?

That sounds amazing! Are you going for school, work, or pleasure?
As far as I know, I'll just spending my Christmas break at home, away from university for a couple weeks. It'll be heaven.

I'm going with uni - a university in China is setting up an English-language creative writing programme and so a few people doing my course (in various stages) are going over to help - and the fantastic thing is that the flights and accommodation are paid for
It'll be nice to be away from study and to be able to relax with your family. 'Tis the season, after all
