About Me
I am a recent graduate from San Diego State University with a B.A. in Psychology. I pride myself on my good grammar and spelling skills (emphasis good, not perfect). Most likely, this will be what most of my contributions are centered around.

Fullmetal Alchemist has a very big spot in my heart. I love everything about the series, both anime and manga. I can't even begin to describe everything that strikes me about it, but I will list a few things:


 * The alchemy. I hesitate to reveal how much of a geek I am, but watching this series actually got me into the study of actual, historical alchemy. It is a very interesting topic to me, and I get very excited when I discover hidden references in the FMA series. <3


 * The characters. I think like Edward. I act like Winry. I take care of people like Al. Of course, in any good story the characters are relatable, but there is something special about the characters in FMA that resonates with me more than in any other work I've ever seen/read.


 * The philosophy. I'm a sucker for a show with a good philosophical base. It makes the story so much more engrossing. It makes me think.


 * The exaggeration. Everything is so exaggerated, just like me! I'm taken on an emotional journey with every chapter/episode. I love being abe to really feel the emotions of the characters, and the dialogue, illustrations, and voice actors do such a great job of making that possible!
