SubpagesTropers

So I suppose this is where I have the license to be as narcistic as I'd like. Alright then! For starters, I'm a 20 year old girl attending college who lives in Kansas. I'm also biracial, Chinese and White to be exact. I've held a job at a movie theater for 3 years; therefore I tend to edit pages of relatively recent movies that I've watched and enjoyed to some extent. I was introduced to this wonderful website by a fellow nerdy troper 2 years ago with the warning that this website would ruin my life; it has. More information coming soon; expect this page to change often like typical TV Tropes pages tend to do.
Now I'll Describe Me and/or My Life By Only Using Tropes!
- Ambiguously Brown: Or more like "ambiguously dark haired, dark eyed, and beige/olive skinned." It still results in Mistaken Nationality.
- Archive Binge: This will always inevitably happen when I enter websites such as TV Tropes or any other type of Wiki.
- Asian and Nerdy
- Beautiful All Along: This happened when I learned proper fashion sense.
- Beauty Mark: I have a small one next to my eye.
- Berserk Button: The Twilight series in general and whenever someone is Fan Dumb about it.
- Blind Without 'Em: This has sadly been my case for over 10 years.
- Brown Eyes: I have them.
- Cloudcuckoolander: In conversations I tend to go on weird tangents and declare nonsequiters a la Chester A. Bum.
- Crazy Awesome: My friends consider me this due to me performing acts such as real mummification for a school assignment, and getting an A on it.
- Crazy-Prepared: The reason my purse is so heavy is because it contains superfluous stuff such as a mini-first aid kit, extra snacks, and a portable flashing light distress signaler. I will probably (hopefully) not have to use these objects, but it makes me feel better to have them around.
- Curtains Match the Window: Of the mundane real-life type.
- Cute, but Cacophonic: This is very useful whenever I need to summon waiting customers to my line in a very busy and noisy movie theater lobby, or to alert my coworkers working in the concession stand to dump the remaining popcorn from the kettle of the popcorn popper so said popcorn doesn't burn and release a horrible burnt-popcorn smell throughout the theater lobby.
- Cuteness Proximity: This happens when I'm around most animals, even non-cutes like snakes.
- Fan Hater and Hatedom: Towards the dumb Twilight fans and the Twilight series...so much.
- Geek Physiques: I am of the skinny variety. Because I am young and female, society will probably deem this as attractive.
- Girls Love Stuffed Animals: When I was a young child I always carried around a gray rabbit plushie, and I became exceptionally upset if I ever got separated from it. Nowadays I don't carry a plushie with me everywhere, but I do sleep with plushies in the forms of a sifaka lemur, a fennec fox, Badtz Maru, and a red blood cell, of all things. I still have that beloved gray bunny plushie from my childhood, but it's far too small and worn out to be cuddled with while sleeping, so it has retired into a keepsake to remind me of more innocent and simple times.
- Grammar Nazi: To the point that I'll refuse to read things that consistently have incorrect spelling and conventions; whoever composed it probably has consistently low intelligence and therefore it's probably a waste of time to read anyway.
- Hates Being Touched: Particularly being tickled. I might even kick the tickler in the face for it.
- Hollywood Scribbling: All of my drawings will inevitably be this.
- Larynx Dissonance and Woman Of A Thousand Voices : I am nowhere near as talented at Matt Chapman or Little Kuriboh, but I can briefly mimic voices such as Yoda, Marvin Martian, chipmunk's, several Pokémon, Yami Marik/general evil person's deep scary voice, Louis Armstrong/Bubs, Mr. Herbert, Michael Jackson, a valley girl's, and some other random stuff. This talent either amuses or freaks out onlookers when they see these diverse voices come out of a cute teenage-looking Asian girl's head, and it would be perfect if I ever needed to voice act a Crack Fic somehow involving all of these characters...
- Lurker: I guess this dense amount of text on this page makes up for how I never contribute to any forums on any website. Ever.
- Mistaken Nationality: Strangers and people who don't know me very well in general have assumed that I was Hispanic, Native American, or an East or Southeast Asian ethnicity that isn't Chinese. Thanks biracialism!
- Money Dear Girl: The reason why I've held a job for so long that pays minimum wage for hard, dirty, and sometimes degrading work and pays no overtime or holiday and gives no benefits besides the occasional free movies? Screw my dignity, I want money! Oh, and that I've met many of my good friends through this job.
- Most Tropers Are Young Nerds: I enjoy stuff such as anime, video games, and internet memes. I also enjoy studying science, Ancient Egypt, and foreign languages.
- Mushroom Samba: This most often takes the form of really weird dreams I get when I'm really sleep deprived and/or hopelessly fatigued from illness. To my amusement, these most likely turn out to be prime material for Crack Fics, as my contributions to the Crack Fic Troper Tales
 page can attest. Either that or demented nightmares, or both of the above.
- Never Heard That One Before: Happens whenever I travel out of state and people I meet learn I'm from Kansas: "Well I guess you're not in Kansas anymore!" Also at my workplace whenever customers complain about the grotesquely high concession stand prices; why do they buy the concessions in the first place if they think they're overpriced anyway??
- The Nicknamer: To animals, most likely a side effect to Cuteness Proximity.
- Nightmare Fetishist: I can become at least mildly fascinated with certain things after I get used to their creepiness, such as dark, mysterious, or supernatural things. However, things such as Gorn or Complete Monsters will always be High Octane Nightmare Fuel to me.
- Not a Morning Person: I will rarely wake up before noon by myself and by my own free will if I don't have to go to school or work that day.
- Older than They Look: In many instances I've paid cheaper prices for admission since the clerks mistaken me for a child rather than the teenager I was. Thanks Asian heritage!
- Old Shame: I wrote some of these when I was 14 and younger...
- One Note Cook: The few things I cook well are baklava and falafel, and maybe some other Middle Eastern dishes that I was curious enough to try making.
- Eerie Pale-Skinned Brunette: If I don't go outside and get a slight tan.
- Precision F-Strike: My observing friends will be either startled or amused by whenever I ever decide to utilize my rarely used lexicon of swears and profanity.
- Punch Clock Villain: At my job, I probably come across as this to some customers who are indignant of me restricting them from viewing R-rated movies if they're younger than 17 (or lack an ID to prove they're of age), vending severely overpriced concessions, and enforcing strict rules on them whenever they rent our $60(!) 3D glasses so our glasses don't get lost or stolen.
- Shrinking Violet: I am this around people I don't trust nor know well enough, which is actually quite often. Otherwise my Cloudcuckoolanderness and crazy awesomeness would shine brilliantly.
- Spell My Name with an S: While not outright unusual and/or novel, my first name is still relatively uncommon compared to those of other girls' born within my decade. This causes most people to misspell my name in diverse ways unless I explicitly tell them the correct way to spell it.
- Sweet Tooth: I'm much more likely to put my sweetness detecting taste buds to use than the other five.
- Trademark Favorite Food: Garlic, raw onions, ranch dressing, sweet potatoes, mangoes, lemonade, and (presweetened and flavored) Greek yogurt, to name a few.
- TV Tropes Will Ruin Your Life: Now I will never be able to enjoy a work without constantly identifying its tropes as I do so.
- TV Tropes Will Ruin Your Vocabulary: I also frequently use Tv Tropes lingo in everyday conversation, and my non-troper (albeit still nerdy) friends will either give me blank stares or think I made up terms like "Nightmare Fuel" and "Scenery Porn" myself. I should probably introduce them to Tv Tropes to break this jargon barrier...
- What Do You Mean You Aren't On Drugs: I tend to get this reaction from people whenever I become very Cloud Cuckoo Landerish.
