My Bio
I'm an American who wishes I was British but am as equally fascinated by Japan as I am with Great Britain. My family is Portuguese who immigrated from the Azor Islands a couple generations back. I love art, music, reading, writing, and gardening (when it has to do with orchids). I love history and literature, both of which I never tire of studying, and if I could go to school my whole life, I happily would.

Favourite Visual Artist
Jonathon Bowser, Dante Gabriel Rossetti
Favourite Movies
The Lord of the the Rings Trilogy, anything fantasy, anything sci-fi, and any movies of pre-twentieth century literature (particularly Shakespeare)
Favourite TV Shows

At the same time, I can't revolve my entire life around school, just most of it. Meanwhile, I plan to set aside a little time to write on my stories and do renders on Poser 9 of the characters in my stories, and random renders as well, all of which I will begin posting soon (first I have to start rendering again, of course).

As usual, I'm going to have a poem from one of my favorite poets in history start off my journal entry. Henry Wadsworth Longfellow is probably in my top ten, and one of the only American poets that I enjoy. Becalmed by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow Becalmed upon the sea of Thought, Still unattained the land it sought, My mind, with loosely-hanging sails, Lies waiting the auspicious gales. On either side, behind, before, The ocean stretches like a floor,-- A level floor of amethyst, Crowned by a golden dome of mist. Blow, breath of inspiration, blow! Shake and uplift this golden glow! And fill the canvas of the mind With wafts of th
