I am, in my own words, a very geeky and slightly asocial, if hopefully nice enough young woman, currently majoring in English Literature and minoring in French. I like a variety of things, TVtropes is a site ran by people who also like a lot of things, ergo, I spend quite a bit of time on here.
I also
kind of like making fun of myself. Just putting that out there.
This Troper Provides Examples Of...
- Ambiguously Gay: I sometimes come off as this. My blatant Yuri Fangirl tendencies do not help.
- The Anti-Nihilist: Because atheism doesn't have to mean a bleak outlook on life.
- Apologizes a Lot: I'm sorry, but I don't think I'll ever cure this habit.
- Asexuality
- Attention Deficit Creator Disorder: Damn you, TVtropes, you really don't make this any easier. Also, I kind of have college to deal with, and that's more important than anything else.
- Author Appeal: Take a wild guess.
- Author Vocabulary Calendar
- Beware the Nice Ones: I am usually very polite, mild-mannered, and non-confrontational; I have admitted that I hate getting angry at people. When I do actually snap on someone, it's always because I've been pushed way too hard for far too long.
- Bifauxnen
- Big Eater <——> Forgets To Eat: I ping-pong between the two, depending on my mood. Sometimes, I'm the former because of the latter.
- Boyish Short Hair
- Brilliant, but Lazy: Very lazy, unfortunately.
- Cloudcuckoolander: There's a reason other people call me a "space cadet". I also have a propensity for rambling conversations that go all over the damn place, as numerous people in real life (and on IRC) could attest to.
- Dandere: Justified: I have social anxiety problems, so I'll be more withdrawn and avoidant with people (on a social level) until I'm absolutely sure they won't reject me, then I start showing my more talkative and playful side.
- Feminine Women Can Cook: Inverted. I'm actually quite good at it, even if I make some strange ingredient choices.
- Gratuitous French: De temps en temps. I'm a French minor: c'est un bon raison, non?
- Nightmare Fetishist
- Not a Morning Person: I might get up at about 7:30 every morning, but I am never "up" until about 11:00 or so. I tend to pull all-nighters, so I'm not helping my own cause at all.
- Older than They Look: Some people assume that I'm sixteen or so when I'm actually in my early twenties. I predict that I will probably be carded until I'm about forty.
- Pink Girly Girl, Blue Tomboy: My little sister and I, with respect to our favorite colors (and occasionally, wardrobes).
- Real Women Don't Wear Dresses: Averted,attitude-wise. I might not want to dress or act femininely, but I refuse to believe that makes me "better" than the women who do want to do these things. Really, I hate this trope - If you believe that being girly or wanting to doll up makes someone (real or fictional) weaker, we're not going to be friends.
- Sesquipedalian Loquaciousness: To paraphrase a friend, you can tell I'm an English major because of my predilection for verbosity in both my speech and my writing.
- Shorter Means Smarter: I like to pretend it does, anyway.
- Spell My Name with an S: Officially, it's "Allyson", but a lot of people write it as "Allison"/"Alison" (and sometimes, "Alycen" or "Alicen"(!)). I'm fairly forgiving about this mistake in real life but significantly less so online.
- Spot of Tea: I think I might be addicted to the stuff, judging by how many boxes of it I go through every semester.
- Trademark Favorite Food: Eggplant, tofu, crabmeat... oh, and anything with garlic.
- Yuri Fangirl
