About me: My favorite genres for TV/literature are mystery and espionage. I wanted to be a cryptographer (code-breaker) when I was younger. My biggest goal since childhood is to genetically engineer a blue rose. At some point in my life I hope to be at least conversational in 10 languages. I can lick my elbow. One of my hobbies is making pop up cards. I would love to get to know all the new residents, so visit me anytime!
