Hello everyone!

＼(＾▽＾*)いらっしゃ～いっ(*＾▽＾)／

Hello, my name is Camille and I am dark skinned with a variety of interests. Why do I specify what color I am first off? Well I like being upfront about who I am and I think the color of my skin comes a long with that. I have hit upon an interesting time in my life, 'emerging adulthood' as developmental psychologist would call it and I thought it would be interesting to have a blog about things I am interested in during this crucial time.

Here's to the year 2011, I don't have any resolutions, but I do have a few goals I'd like to succeed for the next few months and the year. I am not going to get too personal though, this blog is just going to scratch the surface of my life, specifically my hobbies and things that I am interested in.

Moving on to the important stuff...

I dabble in a few different interests, but here I will talk about my nerdiness! I love to watch anime and various cartoons, I have a slight interest in video games (I am no super gamer though) and read comics as well. To further that interest, I am into something called cosplay which I am sure many people are familiar with. Cosplay or costume play is my way of showing my love for my animated/digital hobby by dressing up as characters I like. I also have an extreme interest in Japanese culture whether it be media (anime, various television shows), fashion, traditions and food. One of my goals to reach before the age of 25 is to go to Japan (and a few other Asian countries--China, Korea, Taiwan and more) and stay for an extended period of time to learn more about the country and the language. Although this interest has nothing to do with my degree (Psychology/Public Health) I will make it happen.

Thank you so much for listening to my little spheal, I hope you are left wanting to read more :D

あなたはどうもありがとう!
