1	Describe givepass here.
2
3	Marital and Family Therapy/Counseling Psychology graduate student. Found TVTropes in college freshman year. Only recently started contributing (and still not that much).
4
5	!!Tropes applicable to {{This Troper}}
6	* [[AttentionDeficitOohShiny Attention Deficit Disorder]]: Semi-officially diagnosed with legal medication! Really manifests as an inability to attention in class for very long.
7	* {{Born Lucky}}: As I like to say, my luck kicks in exclusively in two areas of my life: Those completely useless to it, such as video games, and those completely critical to it, such as academic grades.
8	* CasualDangerDialogue: During a severe car accident on an icy road, the collision caused the car to spin rapidly. This Troper went something along the line of: "Wheeee! MagicSchoolBus!"
9	* CatchPhrase: According to my friends, I say "by default" and "let me put it this way" a lot.
10	* {{Chaotic Neutral}}: I despise bureaucracy. I like freedom. Everyone should be able to do their own thing.
11	* DeadlyUpgrade: Adderall significantly jacks up my blood pressure and heart beat but makes me do homework and tests perfectly and fills me with initiative that I normally lack. It would be naive to assume there would be no long-term consequences. I like to think that it takes a day off my life in exchange for temporary awesomeness.
12	* DeadpanSnarker: When my jokes aren't nonsequiturs or being whimsical, they tend to be sarcastic or cynical.
13	* {{Forgets To Eat}}: Minimal appetite at best, then Adderall nukes what's left of it. Further complicated by how I really only eat because I like the taste of certain things...
14	* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: When I feel like flattering myself.
15	* [[MustHaveCaffeine Must Have Ice Tea]]: Ideally, Arizona green tea. But any ice tea will do. Snapple, Nestea... Clearly, not very picky. Coffee is evil though.
16	* TrademarkFavouriteFood: Soup. Or see above.
17	* [[OrdinaryHighSchoolStudent Ordinary University Student]]
18	* {{The Stoic}}: After taking Adderall, becomes this for the day.
19	* SuperMode: Adderall makes me super productive and super attentive.

21	!!Games Played
22	* {{Total War}}: Rome, Empire, Napoleon.
23	* {{Deus Ex Human Revolution}}: Choice, stealth, gunplay? How could I not like it?
24	* {{Halo}}: Probably my first mature game after N64, so I have a special lifelong attachment to the series.
25	* {{Splinter Cell}}: Double Agent was terrible. Chaos Theory was excellent, probably the best. Conviction has its own charms, but it is a drastic departure from the series norm. They should just make two different games. One more stealthy, one more action-oriented.
26	* {{Warhammer40000}}: Just the Dawn of War series. No tabletop, though I wouldn't mind trying sometime.
27	** Also I adore the {{Eisenhorn}} series. I liked it more than {{Ravenor}} actually. Waiting on the Bequin trilogy.
28	* {{Fire Emblem}}: All the US versions. Disliked Sacred Stones. Thinks Radiant Dawn is the best. Well, besides from the lack of real support conversations. Hope they make a new one with its mechanics soon, instead of all those remakes. I want 3rd tier promotions to become standard! Come on! Doooo it!
29	* [[AssassinsCreed Assassin's Creed]]: 2 was good. Only problem I had with it was the health system. I liked the 1st one's better, but hey, whatever.
30	* {{Mass Effect}}: Thought the 1st was a decent attempt, but wasn't very thrilled with it. The 2nd... WOW. The combat blew me away. Loved it.
31	* {{Gears of War}}: Eh, standard overly-testosterone driven game. But I play it just because it's something to do. Probably desensitized me to gore, primarily limbs and heads getting cut off and exploding, which let me play...
32	* {{Dead Space}}: This was a terrifying game to play through. Also, my first real horror game, which is quite a step for someone who hates horror movies.
33	* {{Prototype}}: The Web of Intrigue is such a nice game plot mechanic. Wish there was a better way to navigate the Web, as well as playing videos in the Web.
34	* {{LeagueofLegends}}: In which I run around and try to play well enough to not get yelled at by my teammates.
35
36	!!Shows Watched
37	* {{One Piece}}: Best anime/manga ever in my honest opinion.
38	* {{Darker Than Black}}: I was (still am) so thrilled by how the protagonist in Japanese (or really, any non-Chinese series) is Chinese. Love the fight scenes and the concept of Contractors. Wrote a basic program that assigned an ability and payment based on personal stats. Good times.
39	* {{Chuck}}: This is probably my favorite live-action show. This or...
40	* {{Burn Notice}}: Entertaining, feels like it actually goes somewhere (even when it doesn't), unlike...
41	* {{Lost}}: Watched it out of curiosity of its popularity. Only got to the end of Season 3. Thought it dragged on forever. Then I watched the finale of the series and it still made perfect sense. This fact is rather saddening. Overall, I think it's OK, maybe even good, but not really a fan of it. I seem to watch shows starring doctors like...
42	* {{House}}: Good, but then it got repetitive. Sorry, House.
43	* {{Family Guy}}: I like absurdist humor.
44	* {{American Dad}}: Might as well watch something else by Family Guy people.
45	* IronChef: This and other random shows on the FoodNetwork make me want to eat.
46	* TheDailyShow: Used to watch it all the time. Still a fan, just that my schedule screws it up.
47	* TheColbertReport: Ditto the above.
48	* MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagic: Pretty got into it the standard way. "What is this thing taking over the Internet? Let's go watch it!" Such a happy show.
