Hi Sowinda and welcome. I'm new here too, but a fellow servant of feline overlords I have to say, your current reading faves make for an interesting list. I'm a fan of Vonnegut; that one is going on my must read list.
Welcome
I never heard someone say that they are a fan of cyanobacteria. :geek But I approve
Welcome, Sowinda! It's great to meet you!
Also your city of origin can only make me think of:
Welcome!
Hey, Eugene! I've worked in/out/around Eugene several times for a conservation corps - NorthWest Youth Corps. It's one of my favorite cities! But not in June and July - pollen count's too high. D: D: D:
How did you end up migrating from Idaho to Cali to Eugene?
Welcome to TarValon.net!
I think it's great that you've studied so many languages. I've done Spanish, French, Latin, Ancient Greek, and one semester of Chinese. Is there any particular reason you're familiar with so many, or is it just a hobby?
Also, feel free to send me a visitor message (or later a private message after you're a citizen) with any questions you might have, or just to talk!
I had to pick either Spanish or French in middle school and chose Spanish. Then there were scheduling issues with that my 8th grade year, so I took French instead. But I still wanted to go back to Spanish, and I've always loved both, so I took them both in high school. When I got to college, I started out wanting to be a translator or interpreter, so I took a semester of Chinese. I didn't really like it though (mostly the writing part, and how it wasn't really connected to the spoken language), decided I didn't want to go down that career path after all, and switched to an Antiquities major with an emphasis in Classical Studies. Thus, I started learning Latin and Ancient Greek (the latter of which I never really liked, but had to take anyway).Why did you learn the ones you did?
I enjoy long-distance adventure cycling, ...
