Interests

edit

This is a separate tab to catalog all of my interests, of which there are many! While I don't claim to be a certifiable expert in anything, I am rather knowledgeble about anime and manga, as well as certain historic eras, zoology, art history, and internet pop culture.

General Interests

edit

I am a history major in college, so I naturally enjoy a multitude of historical topics. While I am no expert, I have enjoyed learning about Ancient Egypt and Medieval Europe since childhood. Later in life I developed an interest in the World Wars, Napoleon Bonaparte, and feudal Japan, and I feel somewhat more comfortable in my knowledge of those topics. Outside of history I have always enjoyed natural sciences and the arts, especially anything relating to animals. While house cats have been my favourite animal forever, I also have a love for dogs, snakes, birds of prey and corvids - I will enjoy the company of almost any animal (except craneflies, they freak me out!). I also have a fascination with the morbid and macabre (to the dismay of my mother and grandparents) - cold cases, unsolved mysteries, and the horror genre of almost anything fascinate me.

Hobbies

edit

My hobbies include hiking and collecting manga, as well as visiting art galleries and museums. In March of 2018 I visited Mammoth Cave National Park, and have since made it a personal goal to visit as many of the units managed by the National Park System as possible in my lifetime - and I have also began to collect the park passport cancellation stamps as a result.





Media

In lieu of writing out every single band, anime, or other franchise that I enjoy, here is a non-comprehensive collection of userboxes, sorted by media type.
