So. Yeah. There's that 30 questions meme thing. Optimistic considering my posting derpitide, but here we go. :D

Day 01 - Introduce yourself

Hi! I'm Fran!

...

oh wait I have to actually do more than that don't I? Erm..

See, I always have trouble with this sort of thing. I am, in my opinion, a boring person. I never quite know what to say when there's introductions because I'm just a homebody dork. I'm not even a spectacular dork. I don't really have any major fandoms [anymore. I used to be a big Depeche Mode fangirl and be very embarrassing, and then there's the Yuugiou thing with Kokoro no Naka and people insisting I was a big name in fandom and phht, yeah right. I just had a popular page. Not the same. And I tend to like Anime and Japanese language and culture but I'm not really much of an otaku either cause I just watch random things] or too many things I really think I'm passionate about. I'm kinda... low key. Jack of all trades, master of none. There's really nothing about me that sticks out. Except my hat, but you all can't see that. And I'm serious about that, I am a freaking ninja without that hat. Got to hear my boss leaving me a voice mail to come up to her room WHILE I WAS IN IT *siiiigh* I'm that person who's always kinda hanging back, observing things. I video tape and take photos but don't really take part.

Gary put it pretty well today when we were doing intros at the theater thingi. I'm the glue of things. I hold them together and if I'm doing it well, noone even notices. And I'm pretty cool with that, I think (as long as someone thanks me. Not getting any sort of appreciation just... I get bitter and exhausted.) I like organizing and statistics and managing things.

I am socially awkward and sometimes prone to massive social anxiety. Most of the time it's minimal of the "oh god I said that wrong. Fuck, they're going to think I'm an idiot. Fuuuuck what do I do?!" and of the "... noone's talking to me/replying to what I said. Oh god, what did I do? FML!" variety. I second guess myself a lot and will often feel irrationally like people are ignoring me when they probably aren't. I was one of those kids who eeeeveryone picked on in elementary school (even the teacher in 4th grade. Mom still tells stories of that teacher @_@) so, yeah. I think most everyone knows how that goes.

I'm an inch away from being ADHD. To where I was tested and the doctor was all "You sure as heck have an attention problem all right! But you just baaaaarely past that test there so you aren't ADHD. You just want to respond to all stimulus." I have a pretty bad reading disorder. You may have noticed my wonderful spelling -_- This is why. My brain does not connect words to their meanings or their spellings or pronunciations. I also have a 10th grade reading level and have since middle school. Go figure how that works :D I do far better in Japanese than English.

So. Yeah. I probably would do this far better in question and answer format, only I suck at that too. I'm just not especially good at talking about myself unless I'm just rambling on about nothing like a ninny. I can do the vital stats thing [I'm 30, born April 29th, 1980 not long after midnight] but that's just a day and a tally of years and I still feel like a freaking teenager in that awkward stage of still trying to figure themselves out and teetering on that cusp of being a responsible adult thing,

I also have managed it so almost no one knows my last name. Or my full name even. Even at work it's just "Fran." This kinda amuses me.

So, TL;DR, I'm Fran and I am a derp. Yep.

It's really interesting reading intros like these; I didn't know most of this stuff (or only like sort of knew half of and wasn't sure). I guess, while I'm actually also an introvert that tends to keep to herself a lot especially when I'm in unfamiliar territory, I'm also quite outgoing and passionate about several important things in my life.

I got picked on as a kid too, even in middle school, but I 'fought' back. (Like, somehow got it straightened out or at least made it known.) I remember once, when I was particularly bullied after school before my sister picked me up, I was in tears; yet I remember that all that I really said about what I wanted done about it was, "I just want it to stop". And interestingly, I think from that point on it really had, in that school and elsewhere since. =|a

I'm...more of a habitual ninja? Like people do notice me when I mean to be noticed, but I can hella sneak up on people sometimes when I don't make a particular effort at being noticeable. =P Plus, I just ninja around on communities sometimes, as you might remember, lol.

I know that for me I have had a major anxiety problem, and of course worrywart is a natural extension of that 8D;; (Seriously though you spell better than a lot of people I've seen; I always feel like people who have a disorder that makes it hard to do something often do it better than some people who don't have the disorder 9_9 ) I...*might* have some ADHD tendencies, but only in that my brain can go a million places at once; I can really focus on something so much that I forget other things at times XD;;

And I keep marveling at my tendency to make friends with people who are several years my senior. Those people especially always seem to be kinda surprised when they learn how young I am XD;; Ironic thing, in person, people often think I'm in high school, despite being taller than most girls my age. Must be the baby fat on the cheeks. XP

Also, a final observe. If you take the differences between Mage and Supes (god that seems like eternity ago XP ), their contrasts are similar to ours: impassive vs. fretful, overseer vs. warrior, even sorta with the ages that Mage and Supes hold themselves as, if not necessarily their actual ages. XP And I suspect their similarities are to a fair extent our similarities too. The whole thing about a muse being a chip off the ole mun I guess, huh? =P

I know your full name...but then I'm weird

Good intro. I see more than a bit of myself in you. (you'll have to tell me if that's a good thing or not! :-P)
