I'm going to re-try this, since my original entry is way back now.
Hi, I'm Laura, I'm twenty and live in England.
I use this journal to post fanfiction and generally write about things that are going on in my life, however dull they may be to others. I friends-lock the personal stuff in my journal, though, so only fanfiction is generally viewable by everyone - for someone who posts on an internet journal, I can be quite private, too.
Fanfiction wise, I write for the Monkey Island games, Pirates of Dark Water, Animals of Farthing Wood, Battle Royale - the majority of what I write does seem to come from obscure fandoms, so I don't blame anyone for not being familiar with any of those names (except Battle Royale, I imagine).
My main passion, when it comes to studying, is foreign languages. I've always loved Spanish but am currently studying Russian in my spare time - I also want to learn Latin!
Some other random interests -
- I regularly play computer games but mostly have stuck to older games that I've been in love, or slightly obsessed with, since I was a kid. The games I play the most are - the Monkey Island series (obsessed with it!), Sam and Max, Simon the Sorcerer, the Creatures series, Unreal, Rollercoaster Tycoon 2, Tomb Raider, and the Resident Evil games. - I'm a HUGE fan of horror films. I appreciate the classic, well-made horror film but I also go right down and appreciate the poorly-made laugh-inducing gore fests. Sometimes, though, I just like strange films for the sake of their strangeness. - I also really like foreign cinema. My favourite non-English film is, Time of the Gypsies. - My favourite TV shows are/were before they were cancelled: Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Angel, America's Next Top Model, Futurama, American Dad, Spawn, Bottom, The Young Ones and Scrubs.
