I've been tagged by one of my friends, @Warriorprincess66 (and rimacchi-)
Here's how it works:
1. You get tagged, you write twenty facts about yourself, all true facts
2. You nominate a handful of other innocent people to continue the narcissism.
No exuses, no chickening out and no "not doing it"!
--- About Joy ---
1. I have a past many people would not envy. That being said, I know there are horror stories ten million times worse than mine. I've decided to write about that past in a memoir four chapters deep, and each time I finish writing more than ten minutes' worth I'm in tears. Maybe that means I'm a bit dramatic too.You may or may not ever get to read this memoir, depending on how I feel about the thing and whether I actually ever finish it
2. I'm a noob cosplay / anime fan, currently on Fate/Stay Night and loving it! *geeks out*
3. I'm a pirate. And a grammar Nazi.
4. I am very passionate about things that are important to me, and can thus royally annoy those closest to me with obsessive behaviour. *sorryyy*
5. I love to travel, and I've got my eyes set on every continent on earth.
6. I like change. Apparently that's rare.
7. I hated my name until age fifteen when Jesus found me.
8. Oh, and on that note, I am a Jesus follower who hates religion, but loves Him. You think that's crazy? Well, my experiences with Him have been too real to deny, and he is the best answer I can find for the craziness of life.
9. I like people, especially those who don't just get wet but feel the rain. *stars in eyes*
10. I'm married to a pastor who loves to study apologetics at all hours of the day and night, and the result is that I can tell you how the big bang proves God's existence.
11. I think being an atheist takes too much faith, and that truth is not relative or subjective.
12. I am obsessed with writing and reading fantastic fantasy or delicious prose (or combinations of the two). Joe Abercrombie *drools* Patrick Rothfuss *slavers and pants* Mark Lawrence *faints* Peter V. Brett *loses $#!t*
13. If you've ever heard of DISC profiling, I'm ID. That means I like parties, and I don't mind telling you what to do to. If you've ever heard of the Myer Briggs Personality profiling thing, then I'm ENFJ, which to me means I'm constantly misunderstood and driven by helping people.
14. I like tattosos. I have a $#!!load of mostly neotrad tattoos and plan on getting heaps more.
15. I love cats, and have loved them since I can remember. Cat memes also. Funny cat stuff saves my life.
16. I love sweet stuff, and by that I don't mean romance and flowers, but candy. Jelly babies, especially sour ones *drooling again*
17. Art and music are in my blood, probably inherited from my granddad. Guitar, singing, photography, and graphic design are favourite expressions of this taint in me, but it sure goes deep.
18. Give me what's real above what's convenient.
19. I'm around 70% anti-system. Look it up.
20. Okay, so for the last one let's have something weird. I like blood. Not to drink (sheesh it's not that weird). I mean that I like to have the stuff pumping in me, I like to write and read about it being shed, I like what it symbolizes, I like its colour, and of course I like that Jesus shed his for me a long time ago.
A side note? Here are some cool Watty people to go follow. They're awesome and deserve fawning over: @Cashjo @FromtheBar @CarolinaC @MishaMFB @xXxShadowwolfxXx @Willamina @Paul299 @wizzobravo @voyageavecmoi @kaylawex @StephenMerlinoAbbot MarkLawrenceAuthor
