Hey there :)

My name is Christina and I'm currently 21 years old with my zodiac sign being cancer or the japanese rabbit. I am living in Saxony (Germany) and am studying biotechnology at university.

I absolutly looove cats in all sizes (As my nickname suggests. ;p) as well as other predatory animals like wolfs, meerkats, seals and so on. I also like reading, drawing, meeting friends, baking and just daydreaming and sleeping. Well, sometimes I am too lazy for my own good I must admit...

What else? Oh, yeah, I am truly frightened of insect and spiders, especially spiders! +shudders+ Thus I don't really like summer in particular. Furthermore temperatures above 25°C aren't exactly what you can call my favourite ones. I am more of the autumn-type or winter-type.

Concerning my character I would say I'm shy and polite but can be quite outgoing and cheeky to people near and important to me. (Some of my friends suggested me being schizophrenic with my nearly 180° turning. +sweatdrops+) I am very emotional within but can hide it well if it is related to a person while I have no problem crying when watching films or so. (Even still now I shed tears at the death scene of king Mufasa in The Lion King. That is just too mournful. TT-TT) Besides from that I am attached to my home, family and friends and would be the happiest having all of them near me as I both love and need them and would love living in Saxony forever. Some positive points about me are my sense of responsibility, my pronounced imagination, my playfulness, my honesty, my open mindedness and my readiness to help others. Apart from that I am also sometimes withdrawn, lost in thoughts, scatterbrained, oblivious and need my time to make decisions or shy away from challanges. One could say I am conservative as I like keeping the old rather than exploring the new. (But I must say you can read this in more in nearly all characterizations of the sodiac sign cancer. I was rally astonished how these reflected my personality so well! I didn't think that before reading some online.)

favourite ...:

books: quite a bunch...

- all books of the Star Wars series I have read so far (which are about 30 I believe)

- the Harry Potter series by Joanne K. Rowling

- the Darkover series by Marion Zimmer Bradley (consisting of 32 books)

- the Elenium and Tamuli series by David Eddings

- the Discworld series by Terry Prattchett (One shouldn't read book after book or some of the humour gets lost because it is just too much. Also not all books are equally good which may be due to his Alzheimer´s disease but they are really good nonetheless.)

- the Black Magican Trilogy by Trudi Canavan

- the Farseer Trilogy by Robin Hobb

- the Lord Of The Rings Trilogy and The Hobbit (I love it! :) It is quite humourus in some parts.) by J. R. R. Tolkin

- the Pit Dragon Trilogy by Jane Yolen

- Faust Part One by Johann Wolfgang von Goethe (We read it in school and suprisingly I really enjoyed it. Faust Part Two however doesn' make sense to me.)

- Mephisto by Klaus Mann

- Hiob by Joseph Roth

- Dead Poets Society by Nancy H. Kleinbaum

- Perfume: The Story of a Murderer by Patrick Süskind

- and many more whose title I can't remember and read in different libraries (The books mentioned above are mostly in a big shelf at my home. ;p)

mangas and animes: One could say too many...Well, doesn't matter since they are all good. :)

- Fruits Basket (the only one I began to collect)

- Captain Tsubasa, Crimson Hero, Dan Doh!!, Eyeshield 21 (The characters are simply ingenious! I can absolutly command you to read it. :D), Hikaru no Go (quite amusing, especially Sai), Ice Revolution, Kickers, Mila Superstar, Mr. Fullswing, Ookiku Furikabutte, Over Drive, P2! - Lets Play Ping Pong!, Prince of Tennis, New Prince of Tennis, Punch!, Slam Dunk (really has it's own charm), Sugar Princess, Whistle - these are all more or less in the sports category

- 1/2 Prince (recently discovered at onemanga.com and absolutly happy that I did), Akage no An, Akuma to Dolce, Alice Academy, Avatar - the last airbender, B.O.D.Y., Beauty Pop, Bleach, Cat's Eye, Dragonball, Dragonball Z, hauru no ugoku shiro, Koukou Debut, La Corda d'Oro, Lovely Complex, Luck Stealer, Magic Knight Rayearth, Meru Puri, MxO, Naruto, One Piece, Samurai Champloo, Skip Beat (just lovely and also funny), Tail of the Moon, Vanilla Ice, Whish, Wild Life, X (the series as well as the film)

Greetings and have a nice day!

And now to really serious matters:

My name is sarah
I am but three,
My eyes are swollen
I can not see.
I must be stupid,
I must be bad,
What else could have made
My daddy so mad?
I wish I were better
I wish I weren't ugly,
Then maybe my mommy
Would still want to hug me.
I can't speak at all
I can't do a wrong
Or else I'm locked up
All the day long
When I awake I'm all alone
The house is dark
My folks aren't home.
When my mommy does come
I'll try and be nice,
So maybe I'll get just
One whipping tonight
Don't make a sound!
I just heard a car
My daddy is back
From Charlie's Bar.
I hear him curse
My name he calls
I press myself
Against the wall.
I try and hide
From his evil eyes
I'm so afraid now
I'm sradishing to cry.
He finds me weeping
He shouts ugly words,
He says its my fault
That he suffers at work.
He slaps me and hits me
And yells at me more,
I finally get free
And I run for the door.
He's already locked it
And I sradish to bawl,
He takes me and throws me
Against the hard wall.
I fall to the floor
With my bones nearly broken,
And my daddy continues
With more bad words spoken.
"I'm sorry!", I scream
But its now much too late
His face has been twisted
Into unimaginable hate.
The hurt and the pain
Again and again
Oh please God, have mercy!
Oh please let it end!
And he finally stops
And heads for the door,
While I lay there motionless
Sprawled on the floor.
My name is Sarah
And I am but three,
Tonight my daddy,
Murdered me.
child abuse, MAKE IT STOP!

Isn't that sad? I post this poem in memory of all children who have been hurt by child abuse. This is should be in everyones profiles-spread the message!

The white man said, "Colored people are not allowed here." The black man turned around and stood up. He then said: "Listen sir...when I was born I was BLACK, When I grew up I was BLACK, When I'm sick I'm BLACK, When I go in the sun I'm BLACK, When I'm cold I'm BLACK, When I die I'll be BLACK. But you sir, When you're born you're PINK, When you grow up you're WHITE, When you're sick, you're GREEN, When you go in the sun you turn RED, When you're cold you turn BLUE, And when you die you turn PURPLE. And you have the nerve to call me colored?" The black man then sat back down and the white man walked away...

Post this on your profile if you hate racism
