STATS
Real Name: Kimberly
Age: 27
Gender: Tricky to Say, but is Physically Female from birth to now. Was diagnosed with a hormonal fertility issue that classifies me as both male and female due to competing levels of testosterone and estrogen on Halloween 2012 (This scared me as I want to have a baby in real life and this condition affects fertility. When I was a little girl, I wanted to become a teacher of all sorts of subjects like my father and what better way than to have kids and mold them to be shining examples of humanity?)
Ethnicity: Different Western European\Southern European\Eastern European Blends mixed with Cherokee, Lenni Lenape and Navajo Native American.
Height: 165 cm \ 5'3.75"

FAVORITES
Food: Franchise Restaurants' Food, Sushi, Pasta, Claey's Hard Candies, My Bacon Mac Casserole.
Drink: Spring Water, Milk of all Flavors, Cola (I tend to mix Coke and Pepsi)
Book: I don't read novels when I'm busy writing my own, but I do love a Trashy novel. Any trashy novel aimed at geeks.
Music:
Eurodance (Sexcore, Bubblegum, House)
Eurobeat (This music may induce seizures in certain people due to the hyperdrive speed)
Metal (A good headbanger is great in between therapy sessions)
Hard Rock (Stuff to thrash to)
R&B (Marvin Gaye and Barry White...Can't go wrong)
Hip-Hop (Rap before the "Cranked Bass" era)
Classical (Got this love through Looney Tunes, of all place)
Novelty Hits (Parodies and Silly, Jokey Song).
Triumphant Musical Number Songs from Disney don't hurt.
Movies:
Wayne's World 1,
Toys,
Frozen,
Atlantis: The Lost Empire (The fact A:TLE was about a linguist and I'm a linguist since my mother taught me Spanish and yearned to know is reason enough. Plus it's the other production featuring Leonard Nimoy using a fictional language developed by the man who made the alien languages of the Star Trek: The Original Series)
A Christmas Story ("Oh my God, I shot my eye out!")
TV Shows:
The Big Bang Theory
Bill Nye the Science Guy
Saturday Night Live
Anime (Magical Girl, MonColle (Monster Collecting) and Mecha)
Chowder (When I go to the supermarket, I can't help but point out the Chowder equivalent of each piece of produce and made pummelos sound violent: "You can eat them once you beat them.")
The Western-Washington-centric Almost Live!
Place: South Jackson Street and 5th Avenue South in Seattle (This location is where the International District's spirit is alive and well. It is the hub where charter buses, transit buses and underground, subway-like buses all meet)
School Subject: The Arts and Socialization Periods like Lunch and Recess (the latter two may not count as subjects, but street smarts is a subject neglected in the academic environment, but should be counted for the lessons in action.)
Sport: Soccer (Football to those outside the US), Football, Basketball and Baseball (My arm was so deadly, I would have made my teacher's wife angry if I injured him and they wanted another baby.)
Male Actor:
Dana Carvey (he's hilarious if you give him a chance to strike out on his own)
Leonard Nimoy (I'll remember him for the logical figure who erred ever so slightly when he's gone)
Josh Gad (The fact Disney hired him in spite of his record of satirizing Mormons with Matt and Trey of South Park is acknowledgement enough to say they crank out whores every few years. Even the Osbourne women, Sharon and Kelly have lent their voices to Disney cartoons on TV.)

Female Actor:
Kristen Schaal (This was the catalyst of the loosening of standards at Disney's Standards and Practices in hiring. I watched the clip of her define older men who prey upon young women "Redenbacher" so there was an analogous term that was counterpart to "Cougar")
Sharon Osborne (When I heard her voice a mother pirate, I sometimes lift that voice, mentally and apply it to footage of a British Shorthair mother cat and her kittens)
Cree Summer (One of the most recognized Native Canadian (Canadian equivalent to Native American) vocal artists, getting her start on Inspector Gadget as Gadget's niece, Penny. She voiced various little girls throughout the 1990s and starting with Atlantis: The Lost Empire, she began voicing adults. Her most infamous role was Foxxy Love, a promiscuous send up to Hanna-Barbera's sleuth and musician titles in the catalog in the show Drawn Together.)

LIFE
Siblings: Had an older sister, threw her out for disobedience and has disappeared since (I never like her treatment of me. She tried killing me when I was five with a push down the stairs. I survived but the fact it surfaced was reason to have a mild distrust of people.)

Fears: Isolation, Illness, Ill Willed People, Falling from great height to land on hard ground or freezing water and Dying Young
