Post subject:  5 Facts About You!
So I figured that I didn't really know a lot of the users on here very well yet, and I'm sure there are other people in the same boat.

So in this thread, post five facts about yourself so that we can all get to know each other a little better :)

1. I really love Chinese food, so much that I'm pretty damned good at cooking it fresh from scratch
2. I'm currently playing Skyrim, the Ratchet & Clank HD Trilogy, and Deus Ex: Human Revolution.
3. I have a BA Hons in English Literature
4. I love socks. Fluffy socks, stripey socks, socks are awesome.
5. We have a bunny rabbit called Rory.

1) I don't really play any video games. I've always sucked at any other game in my life except for FIFA.
2) I've lived and studied in three different countries: Philippines, Australia, USA. I'm still finishing high school in the USA.
3) Don't think this really counts but, I still have a lot of stuff over in the Philippines that I'm trying to get brought here. It includes a Wood Elf Captain, Banner Bearer and either 12 or 24 regular Wood Elves. And also a lot of old paint.
4) Some of my other hobbies/interests include playing football, the Marvel and DC Universe, watching YouTube videos (might make my own channel once I graduate), playing the saxophone, listening to music, and reading magazines like Rolling Stone, GQ, and Men's Health.
5) I aspire to be a doctor, director, or sports analyst one day.

So yeah, that's me 8)
