Name: Alain

Age: 17

Location: NJ, USA

How do you identify?: I'm a girl, surprise! Personally, I don't like labeling myself. I believe that love transcends gender, but my friend is pretty insistent that I'm bisexual. There's beauty in both genders. I'd say I'm a little more partial towards men, but sometimes I think I'm turning asexual.

Interests/hobbies:   The typical things. Reading. Writing. Drawing. Mostly drawing and reading. Listening to music. Songwriting, but I suck so bad at it I just give up after a verse or two. I. Love. Cars. Yet I know next to nothing about them. All I can do is name model and company if I see one. Photography, traveling. Forensics, Anthropology. A lot of things.

Favourite books:  ...I have no idea. Wow. Partial to Sherlock Holmes, but it's been a while since I picked one up. I guess I usually go for classics. When I was younger I visited the library every week, but now I have discovered the joys of online fiction. I go through 3 stories a day now. I'd read more, but it's really hard finding decent writing sometimes. Especially without idiotic plots and cliche scenes/characters. I like the whole Harry Potter-verse, but I really dislike how Rowling ended the series. A lot. I'm currently reading The Metamorphoses, but it's taking a while to get through it 'cause I keep falling asleep.

Favourite films:  Oh man. Too many to name. I watch a lot, a LOT, of horror. And action. Off the top of my head, I can say the 24 Days/Weeks Later series, V for Vendetta, Gattaca, Repo Men, Sherlock Holmes, Constantine ...

Favourite music: I don't listen to music based on bands/artists, except on rare occasions. I do like Muse a lot. I'm really into just anything. Except screamo and music like Green Day. I have no idea why, but it just grates on my nerves.

What would you like to send/receive?: I like sending letters, about anything. As long as it's not, uh, explicit. I do make a lot of horrible, perverted jokes with my friends non-stop and I curse every other word, but not so much in writing.

Who would you like to send and receive mail from?: Anyone is good. Maybe someone in my...generation? Haha...

What countries would you like to receive mail from and send to?:  Snail Mail - Mostly US. Not hating on the rest of the world, I'm just really bad at figuring out postage.  Email - anyone is awesome, as long as we can communicate! (Thus, mainly English :( )

I adore hand written letters, but email is just as good. And fast. And free. But just not as fun or thoughtful. We need to appreciate the physical mailbox more. Although I'd prefer only going postal after getting to know you a bit through emails.

Anything that you would particularly NOT like to receive?:  Uh...food. Suspicious packages. Animals. Please, no thank you. I wouldn't object to a very cute kitten, but I'm afraid I can't keep it. No nudie magazines; don't need to be scarred for life.

What would be in your dream letter or package?: A whole new dimension. (But a billion bucks is fine too.)

Anything else you'd like to add?: Er...I have a lot of pet peeves, but I usually keep them in check. If you're logical and pragmatic, we'll be best friends. But if you're a romantic and dreamer, we'll be best friends.
I'm not a huge talker until it comes to writing, so you may find my responses lengthy yet pointless.
