Greetings and Wellcome to my profile!

Alrighty now, where should we begin?

Ah, yes, I believe introductions are in order.

My name is Anastasia (pleased to meet you) and I'm a proud half-Greek-half-Armanian-half-Bulgarian!...Hehehe...Pretty international, don't you think?

Anyway, I was born on January 9th 1990 and am thus a representative of the greatest birthsign, namely Cappricorn. That in itself makes me headstrong, ambitious, sometimes loud and stubborn as hell! When people meet me for the first time, they usualy take me as the quite, shy type, but once I get familiar with my surroundings I show my true nature. I've been told that I have a great sense of humor and those who know me say that I'm outgoing and carefree. On the other hand, I know how to keep secrets and know better than to betray people's trust. I'm never afraid to stand up for my beliefs and stick up for those I care most about. When someone important to me is on the line, I don't hesitate to play dirty. I'm extreme in my emotions (be it hatred or love, anger or delight... hey! That rhymed!) but rarely hold a grudge. That's just how I am- I can strongly dislike someone or something, but it'll take a helluva lot to make me hate them.

I like honest (yes, even brutally honest) people who know their priorities and don't take anything for granted. I positively loath hypocrites and lyers. I prefer to be told off straight in the face (thank you very much) than to be lyed to and betrayed behind my back. Conservative, stuck up, snobby people are also on my 'don't like' list.

I love English, History and Biology and my dream is to study, and eventually, settle in the USA. I love animals and sometimes think that we humans should just erradicte ourselves, and thus save the planet from its misery. I have a little brother and am proud to say that we have a wonderful sibling-rivalry-style relationship (in other words- I hate the little shit as much as any other self-respecting older teenage sister should).

I'm absolutely obsessed withmusic. Both listening and playing (I'm more than decent with the piano) to it. It can alter my mood, make me think, daydream, fantasize. I get most of my inspiration for writing and drawing from it. My tastes vary, but I like songs whose lyrics enthrance and stick out, and music that makes my skin prickle in the most delicious of ways. It's almost orgasmic, the sensation I get from some of my favorite pieces. You can learn a lot about a person's character from their taste in music, I think.

Well, I guess that's it for me. The only things left worth mentioning in my opinion are my fav anime and pairings, but those you can see for yourself if you check my Favorite Stories list! All I'' say is that I am a rabid yaoi fangirl. I mean, how can I not be?! SQUEEEEEEEL!!...Ahem, yes, well...I don't think that love should or could be hindered by mundane little things such as gender. I despise the treatment homosexuality receives in many parts of the world and am a firm believer that true love has no boundaries.It just makes me sick how narrowminded some people cn be. That's what I love about fanfiction- the freedom to be whoever and whatever you want...That and two hot guys getting it on is just plain steamy! Makes me all hot and bothered...Anywaaaaay...We're getting off course here. I also happen to be a huge fan of crossovers.

Well, folks, I guess that's it then. Should your insatiable curiosity get the better of you, you could always visit my YouTube account. It should give you a pretty good overall idea of me as a person.

Stestsyun, my lovelies!

Something I read on another author's profile. It touched me deeply.

I am the girl kicked out of her home because I confided in my mother that I am a lesbian.
I am the prostitute working the streets because nobody will hire a transsexual woman.
I am the sister who holds her gay brother tight through the painful, tear-filled nights.
We are the parents who buried our daughter long before her time.
I am the man who died alone in the hospital because they would not let my partner of twenty-seven years into the room.
I am the foster child who wakes up with nightmares of being taken away from the two fathers who are the only loving family I have ever had. I wish they could adopt me.
I am one of the lucky ones, I guess. I survived the attack that left me in a coma for three weeks, and in another year I will probably be able to walk again.
I am not one of the lucky ones. I killed myself just weeks before graduating high school. It was simply too much to bear.
We are the couple who had the realtor hang up on us when she found out we wanted to rent a one-bedroom for two men.
I am the person who never knows which bathroom I should use if I want to avoid getting the management called on me.
I am the mother who is not allowed to even visit the children I bore, nursed, and raised. The court says I am an unfit mother because I now live with another woman.
I am the domestic-violence survivor who found the support system grow suddenly cold and distant when they found out my abusive partner is also a woman.
I am the domestic-violence survivor who has no support system to turn to because I am male.
I am the father who has never hugged his son because I grew up afraid to show affection to other men.
I am the home-economics teacher who always wanted to teach gym until someone told me that only lesbians do that.
I am the man who died when the paramedics stopped treating me as soon as they realized I was transsexual.
I am the person who feels guilty because I think I could be a much better person if I did not have to always deal with society hating me.
I am the man who stopped attending church, not because I don't believe, but because they closed their doors to my kind.
I am the person who has to hide what this world needs most, love.
I am the person who is afraid of telling his loving Christian parents he loves another male.

Re-post this if you believe homophobia is wrong. Please do your part to end it.

Just a little something I picked up on EmpyrelFantasy's profile. I myself am a pretty sarcastic person st times, despite my generally good disposition, so I really had fun reading this! And the best part- it's all so hysterically true!

Thoughts on Gay Marriage!

1.) Gay marriage is not natural, and as Americans, we always reject unnatural things like eyeglasses, polyester, and lyposuction.

2.) Gay marriage will encourage people to be gay, in the same way that hanging around tall people will make you tall.

3.) Legalizing gay marriage will open the door to all kinds of crazy behaviour. People may even wish to marry their own pets because a dog has legal standing and can sign a marriage contract.

4.) Straight marriage has been atound a long time and hasn't changed at all; women are still property, blacks still can't marry whites, and divorce is still illegal.

5.) Straight marriage will be less meaningful if gay marriage were allowed; the sanctity of Britney Spears' 55-hour just-for-fun marriage would be destroyed.

6.) Straight marriages are valid because they produce children. Gay couples, infertile couples, and old people shouldn't be allowed to marry because our orphanages aren't full yet, and the world needs more children.

7.) Obviously gay parents will raise gay children, since straight parents only raise straight children.

8.) Gay marriage is not supported by religion. In a theocracy like ours, the values of one religion are imposed on the entire country. That's why we only have one religion in America.

9.) Children can never succeed without a male and a female role model at home. That's why we as a society expressly forbid single parents to raise children.

10.) Gay marriage will change the foundation of society; we could never adapt to new social norms.Just like we haven't adapted to cars, the service-sector economy, or longer life spans...

Have PRIDE! Support Gay Marriage!

I support this a hundred and ten percent.

I don't care if you're gay or straight, everybody needs love.
I don't care if you're diseased with an incurable sickness, everybody deserves a chance.
I don't care if you're ugly or pretty, everybody has flaws.
I don't care if you're black or white, everybody has the same capabilities.
I don't care if you're weird, everybody needs to change.
I don't care if you're rich or poor, everybody needs warmth.
I don't care if you're different, everybody is.

Repost this if you agree with it.

Projects' Ssatus:

There And Back Again

Multichapter

Summary: A HarryPotter/Inuyasha crossover. Main character from the HP universe is Harry Potter. The story is slash, the pairing being Harry/Sesshoumaru. I haven't seen any stories done quite like this in the HP/Inu crossover realm, so I decided to write one myself.

Status: Right now on temporary hiatus. I'm in over my head with college application details and housing forms and altogether getting ready to move to a new continent. It's pretty overwhelming, and I just can't find the time to sit down and write. Not a multichaptered fic, in any case. I'm not abandoning the story, don't worry about that. I just want to have at least five chapters written and ready to be posted before I actually start updating again. And, unfortunately, I have no clue when that'll be. I have a clear idea where I want 'There And Back Again' to go and the major events are already planned out and written in my head, so please have patience. The story will not be abandoned temporarily. It's my baby and I love it too much for that.

Not A Kid

Multichapter

Summary: A Yu Gi Oh fic starring Yugi as the main character. I wanted to do the infamous Yugi-runs-away-and-joins-a-band routine for several reasons. First of all, I've seen it done before, but usually with such terrible grammar and spelling, that it kills any joy I may have taken in the plot. Second of all, I like the idea of Yugi growing up and showing those around him that there's more to innocence and purity and himself than naivety bordering on stupidity and eyes too big to be natural even for the anime world.

Status: Discontinued until I don't know when. Probably forever. I sorta lost interest in writing Yu Gi Oh fiction. Sorry to all those of you who took the time to review and share their opinions with me. I'm just not the sort of person to force myself to write simply to get more compliments and praise. I think it defeats the purpose of sharing something I enjoy just for the heck of it. Once again, I'm very sorry.

Oneshots

Currently, I'm fixated on writing Bleach oneshots. I do it mainly because oneshots take less time to write, keep my skills sharp and even help improve them, and allow me to experiment with writing more intimate scenes (yes, including sex, you perverts!...Then again, who am I to speak?). My favorite character (and usual uke) is Ichigo. I like every pairing there is with him and another male character, but so far I myself have mainly done Renji/Ichigo. I may broaden my horizon later on.
