Introduction (please read)

Hello, it's nice to see you here, whether you're entirely interested or just curious.

Welcome to mind - the author's thoughts.

I'm Memory, but you can also call me 료네 (pronounced 'rio neh' and romanized 'Ryone'). 

I do have an "About Me" section in my bio, but it's pretty condensed, so I'll go just a bit more in depth here. (Come on, it won't take that long, but feel free to skip this part.)

I'm an ISFP-t / ISTP-t, if you know what personality types are and are interested. 

I'm naturally a very creative person, and I express this in many different ways, such as writing (this includes stories, books such as this one, songs, and poetry), drawing, painting, singing, crocheting, knitting, and fashion.

In terms of my romantic and sexual orientations, I am pan-aromantic and a demisexual. When I say pan-aromantic, I mean that I experience romantic attraction regardless of the gender, but also experience little attraction to others in general. It's a spectrum, and may be pretty confusing at times, so questions about this (concerning me personally) are always welcome.

I won't go as much in depth about my demisexuality, but I'll provide a general definition below.

Demisexuality is a sexual orientation in which an individual does not experience primary sexual attraction. A demisexual person can only experience secondary sexual attraction – the type of attraction that occurs after the development of an emotional bond. The amount of time that a demisexual individual needs to know another person before developing sexual attraction towards them varies from person to person.

I don't exactly have a specific set of preferred pronouns, so I usually put them in order of which one usually comes to mind first in terms of comfort. So: she/her > they/them > he/him.

I'm asian, born in the United States, lived in Asia for a couple years, not much else to that. I won't disclose my exact ethnicity or where I'm from, but I'll list the asian countries I've been to—Singapore, Malaysia, and Japan, though I hope to add Korea to this list soon.

Okay, who likes boba?

Lol, assuming you do, what's your favorite kind? The classic? Or a specialty?

I like boba a lot—my whole family does—so I get it fairly often (depending on your definition of often, of course). My favorite is usually any drink with any sort of wintermelon in it. A bit weird, is it? Mostly teas. The caffeine is nice too.

Ice cream is another one of my favorite desserts, especially mint chocolate and cherry ice cream. Though I'm pretty picky when it comes to the other flavors.

As you can probably already tell, I like kpop. I like kpop idols too. I got into kpop maybe about eleven months to a year ago, and it can now be found in pretty much every aspect of my life. It's kind of crazy.

(P.S. I have so many kpop books on 'Writing' book list at this point, it's ridiculous.)

In any case, I've been exploring a lot. I was introduced to kpop by BTS, then TXT appeared, and Itzy, Seventeen, and Enhypen have popped into my life as well. Currently, I'm slowly getting into ATEEZ and P1harmony, so if you're fans of theirs, I would appreciate it if you put a youtube link or two that have good introductory videos into their personalities :D

So yeah, this is me, I'm honestly a bit surprised you made it this far, but thank you. Really.

Next, I'll give you guys some information on how this book will probably go.

- This is a pretty random book, filled with my different thoughts or personal mini-stories on more than a couple subjects. Hopefully, it will be understandable, and if you have any questions, feel free to ask in the comments or just laugh at the utter nonsense I'm spewing.

- Each chapter will be short-ish (a maximum of 1300-ish words, if I'm feeling especially thoughtful and energized, but most will likely be less than 1000).

- Some of my stories may be referenced, as well as a couple hints to stories coming soon, ongoing, or being prepared. However, I will try my best to ensure that there are no outright spoilers <3 (There will be a notice at the start of the chapter if a book is mentioned or if the entire part is about a book.)

- Separate warnings for sensitive topics will be listed at the beginning of the chapter if necessary. Please let me know in the comments if I missed any, and I will add the warning as soon as I can. 

That's it! (not me saying this after writing more than 700 words—)
