About Me Name: Kathy100, Kathy, Twism B-day: August 4th Location: Southern CA, USA

Sister: Dorothy~! You can see her website / art gallery HERE. She's 17 years old and she's way talented at drawing and writing. Her sense of humor seriously doubles me over with laughter. Often. Check out her comics / doujinshis especially!

Drawing Experience I've been drawing for about ten years now...but I don't draw very regularly. I've never really taken an art class, and just read art books or look at tutorials online to learn.   Favorite Artists: Norman Rockwell, Hyung Tae-Kim   Favorite Art Media Corel Painter 9.0   Favorite Games: Disgaea for the PS2 and the Monkey Island series for the computer ^_^. Ah, LucasArts adventure games *___*.   Favorite Manga I love manga. I love it love it love it T_T!! Reading manga and scanlations is one thing I am happy to do all day every day, whenever I have the time XD XD. It's super hard to pick favorites because I adore so many! But...probably Bleach ^_^. Though Host Club and Hikaru No Go are pretty high up there, too XD.   Favorite Anime I don't really watch much anime ^_^;. I read a whole lot more manga. But from what I have watched, the first two seasons of Slayers were great!   Favorite Books I adore Sci-Fi/Fantasy books! I have many huge bookcases filled with them ^_^! Ender's Shadow by Orson Scott Card is my absolute favorite Sci-Fi / Fantasy book~! (Be sure to read the first book, Ender's Game, first! It makes a whole lot more sense that way. Ender's Game is not quite as good...but still awesome *_*.) One other book that I think more people need to read is Last Chance to See by Douglas Adams (errr, this one's not sci-fi, though). It's HILLARIOUS! Much funnier than "The Hitchiker's Guide to the Galaxy" IMO XD!   Favorite Music I don't listen to music much. I'll listen to movie or game soundtracks and some Chinese or j-pop occasionaly, though. Jolin Tsai is probably my favorite music artist...though some of S.H.E. songs are awesome too *_*   Favorite Movies I adore watching chinese wuxia series. The classic "Legend of the Condor Heroes" (1983) is of course one of my faves, but I also love "The Duke of Mount Deer" (1998), "The Young Wong Fei Hung" (2000), and "Chess Warriors" (1999). (These are all super exciting, upbeat, and funny...you should check them out if you can understand Chinese! I don't really like the more depressing and angsty series.) Some Korean dramas rank among my favorites too..."Dae Jang Geum" (aka Jewel in the Palace) (2003) and "Sang Do" (2001) especially.   Misc. Info I'm a Computer Science graduate student going after my PhD at UCSB (so yeah, art is just a side hobby I do in my free time.) A bit more info (and weirdness) can be found in my art meme here   Other Favorites Calivn and Hobbes!!! I adore that comic T_T, awesome drawings, unvelievably funny ^_^. Also...chinese food! And Root Beer Floats! And spending the day reading in Borders *___*.   Dislikes Bugs! I can't stand any kind of creepy crawly insects or spiders...GAH! Also anything really sad or really scary. I cry and frighten too easily ^_^;. Angsty stuff, seafood, and angry parents are all evil-ness.
