Sweater Weather

[Athena 6]

I've never been good at introductions but here goes nothing!

 

My name is Athena and I live in the Midwest of the US. I've been RPing for longer than I like to think of but began once I started high school. I was introduced to chat rp by some friends who got together regularly on MSN and instantly adored it! It didn't take long for me to realize that forum rp's existed and I spent countless hours on ezboard (does anybody even remember that?). Typically, I stick with supernatural/ fantasy genres but have branched out here and there.

 

I feel like I'm just a basic nerd and love several fandoms. Doctor Who, Harry Potter, Lord of the Rings (seeing a pattern here?). With all the superhero films lately, I've latched onto bandwagon and do not feel bad about it in the slightest! My nerdom probably started back in the day with copious amounts of anime, which I lived and breathed obsessively. Now that I'm older, I'm mature enough to take a step back from the weaboo I once was and partake in a much more healthy amount, haha.

 

I would say one of the most unexpected hobbies I have is that I love jrock and kpop, although I haven't kept up with the former over the years as much as the latter. Still, a different language will not stop me from enjoying music. Umm, lately I've begun to become more interested in gardening and although I'm awful at it, I've managed to grow some wildflowers in front of my house this year (yay!).

 

So...that's it, I guess? If we share some interests, don't be afraid to share!

 

PS. The title is my absolute favorite song, ever, by The Neighbourhood. ❤️

I kinda remember ezboards! I'm not sure I ever owned one myself, but I recall hoping on others, though it was so long ago.

 

My husband does a lot of the gardening for me, but I do enjoy benefiting from things like fresh tomatoes and basil. So, good luck with yours! It's very cool to just walk outside and grab some veggies or herbs.

 

Anyway, welcome to the site!

We don't really have a good spot to start growing any sort of food right now and it seems we missed a lot of planting windows for the things we like. We'll probably just have to wait until next year but that's okay! In the meantime, I'll just continue trying my hand with regular flowers and plants and see how far that gets me, haha!
