Hey.
Posted: Fri Jul 08, 2011 2:12 pm
I'm Rien which means "nothing" in the sense that I'm nothing but me. I don't fit neatly into any one label and gave up trying a long time ago after nearly driving myself crazy over it. One thing is for sure: 90% of my interests and values are outside of the mainstream and I'm looking to chat with people who might have the same interests as me. The area I live in is so smothering; everyone wants to stay in a box and are too afraid to step out of it. I finally got that courage and never looked back.
I'm a black 22 year old woman who has a degree in Computer Networking and getting ready for my second degree in Graphic Design. I'm mainly into reading, drawing, writing, photography, computers, anime/manga, comics, video games, and a lot of goth/geek/emo/indie/cyberpunk stuff(fashion, art, music etc.).
I should also mention that I'm agnostic and a vegetarian since I tend to get a lot of crap about that. I actually get crap about a lot of stuff being black and alternative, but I stopped caring about things like that a long time ago though I will still defend my interests when questioned about them. It's human nature after all.
I have history of never staying long on a forum because I'm never "harcore enough", they tend to have a lack of depth, and/or it's dying by the time I finally get around to joining. I lurked a bit before joining here and I can see you want this forum to stay alive so I'll try to see if I can contribute anything. I also saw the actual depth here that I found myself craving on other forums; I tend to stick out like a sore thumb because I use actual grammer and I tend to post long comments(which some places can't handle obviously. I'm often told I'm too serious both in and out of cyber world).
I found this site accidentally while looking for Ghost in the Shell stuff after watching the series again for old times sake. I'm not hardcore like some of you here, but I'm definitely a fan. I got into GitS through SAC, but I prefer the movies(which I haven't seen in forever so I extremely rusty on the details) and I still haven't read the manga. I also plan to get the video game one day. Ghost in the Shell has a special place in my heart for partially getting me interested into computers and technology in general.
