"On a large enough time line, the survival rate for everyone will drop to zero." (Fight Club, Chuck Palahniuk)

I find it very difficult to talk about myself. First thing that might stand out is that I have a strong preference for using English - at least when it comes to profiles. Anyhow, I am ...

• an English graduate student, liking everything from Charles Dickens to Blackadder
• a Japanese student with interests varying from history to more contemporary stuff
• I tend to love history - not in the sense of memorising dates, but tracing through historical processes. Not only the "when" is important, but the "why" and "how" too!
• very fond of fairy tales, especially ones that are Darker and Edgier
• someone who's more literature and cultural studies orientated, rather than linguistically
• half Polish, half Indian (no, I don't speak Hindi nor Punjabi, though I understand both somewhat). Was brought up here, but attended English-speaking schools for more than half of my life.
• don't have any concrete career plans right now, though my dream was to be an archaeologist.

Things look better with images? And I've always been fond of his art, though I'm not sure what it says about me.
