Personality:

I'm a somewhat-random person on the internet and with friends, but that's the result of my J-rock fangirlism.  Because
of my interest in foreign culture and my dislike of rap or Hip-Hop (from America), I've turned to Asian and European music.
Music is my life, I can't live without it.  It is the only thing that can keep me sane no matter what the circumstances.  In addition
to music, I love singing, also.

I take pride in breaking away from social stigma and racial stereotypes and just being my own person.  Being home schooled
all my life and going to Community College now, I don't have peer pressure, so all my 'abnormalities' as an African-American
just came to me as unique interests.  I never thought they were 'abnormal' or uncommon to start with, until I could never find
African-Americans like myself who like mainly Japanese things.  I ask myself all the time why racial stereotypes or social
normality's should determine whether you are 'normal' or not. 

Music Taste:

My music taste is very flexible.  I pretty much listen to anything NOT from America or Mexico (I can't stand the sound of Mexian Spanish), my favorite type of music is, of course, Japanese and Pagan Rock.
I listen to as much J-pop as J-rock and Namie was one of my first J-pop artists.  My first J-rock band was Dir en grey, who are very precious to me. 
While I adore Namie to death, I'm a proud J-rock fangirl. I also have an ear for classical music
and I am particularly fond of Tchaikovsky.
