Hello there and welcome! I've been thinking about making one of these for a while now and since I'm a little bored, thought I would actually do it. I won't be answering too personal of questions, but I'll try my best not to be too picky.

Okay, now a little bit about me. I've lived all my life in the United States, but I have visited Mexico on numerous occasions and I have been to Canada once. My dad was in the military, so I moved every couple of years. I have attended nine different schools and moved countless times more than that. It was tough moving around and not really having a best friend that I grew up with, but I got to experience a lot of different cultures, so that's cool.

As far as family goes, I have two older brothers (one of which is a twin, who is two minutes older than me) and a mom and dad. We currently have a dog named Reggie who is a German Shepard mix. Mixed with what? We have no idea. I get along with most of my family with the exception of my oldest brother. I guess he's technically twenty, but he acts more like the age of four. His favorite activities include pushing my buttons and everything that I don't do. You know your brother annoys you badly when the week he leaves for college is the week you don't need to take your migraine medication anymore.

I'm currently living at home with my parents going to community college. I'm living with my parents because the community college is literally ten minutes away from my house and it would be kind of pointless to move out right now. I'm currently studying to get an AA in creative writing, but I'm not sure of what to major in. I've narrowed it down to either journalist or high school LA teacher. Although, lately I've been heavily leaning towards LA teacher.

And now it's time for pokemon stuff!

My first pokemon game was Black. I got it during a band trip my sophomore year in high school. My parents didn't allow me to do anything related to pokemon growing up because they thought it was too violent. Yeah, they were a bit over protective. Anyway, I started playing the moment I got home and I've been hooked since. I kept it a secret from my parents for about a month, but then I told my mom that I got it during church so she couldn't yell at me. :P

My favorite aspects of pokemon have to be competitive battling and (of course) the fan fiction. I enjoy strategy games a lot, so I find the competitive meta-game really fun to play. My favorite tiers are monotype and gen 5 NU. I like monotypes because grass is my favorite type and I actually do decently. Definitely not bad for the type with the most weaknesses, that's for sure. I like gen 5 NU because that's the tier I did the best at. I topped out at #6 on the ladder in the main server with a 15-1 record. I like fan fiction because I like to see where people take the franchise and incorporate their own ideas into it. I think it's great and FF&W still remains my favorite section.

My favorite pokemon are, but not limited to, Serperior (my first pokemon), Gigalith (my first shiny), Cradily, Tangrowth, Jumpluff, Breloom (my favorite for competitive use), Volcarona, Linoone, Crawdaunt, and Hawlucha.

Well, I think that's just about everything I could think of. If you have any questions, ask away and I'll be sure to answer them! :D

A+ plan, haha. Also dang, moving 9 times? That's a lot.

When did you start writing/get into it? I think that's a fair enough question given where you mod. =p

Well, that's how many schools I went to. I probably moved closer to twelve or thirteen times, but a lot of that happened when I was younger (too young to remember), so I don't know if that counts.

Let me think...

I believe my first attempt at recreational writing was my sophomore year in high school. I started writing this story about an alien planet (I must really like aliens or something) that was in a war or something. I never made it past chapter two, but it planted a seed within me. The seed didn't really start to grow until mid-summer after I graduated. I was writing Alien Poverty in my free time when all of a sudden, something just clicked. I smiled and began hopping around my room with excitement because I had just found what I wanted to do for the rest of my life.
