Hello everyone and hopeful future friends!
It is my pleasure and honor to be here in Tar Valon. It is my favorite place in the books and also the place I most would want to be at if I got to visit randland. In my actual life I am a 911 operator and I just started into my chosen field of social work. I have wanted to be a social work since I was a child and I went through a rough time myself and promised that I would do whatever I could to protect other people. I am what you would call a workaholic in a special way because I often use work to get away from other things I don't necessarily want to deal with. I am single- perpetually but I consider myself a good friend- I often say that it is my best quality. I do whatever I can to help a friend always and try and trust them and vice versa. I like to be someone who can help people through things and someone who can at least be a person who can listen.
I have a cat named Rome and an obsession with Ancient Roman history. I had a previous pet that passed named Gaius Octavian (see the pattern).
My favorite characters in the books are the Aes Sedai (Cadsaune probably the most favorite). I listen to them over and over and read them the most. I try and do a reread once a year and like the later books better than the older ones. I think I was most bored by Elaine (I know some of you probably want to set me on fire)
I am working on my PHD in sociology/social work and I have an incredible interest in research (which makes me sound a little like a brown- I see that)
I think the most interesting thing about myself or my hobbies would be that I have kept a journal since I was in 8th grade almost daily. They are my prized possessions and while my book collection has moved to digital books my personal journals have always followed me and been on paper and pen or pencil.
My favorite person right now in the whole world is my nephew Eli who was just born three months ago.. I couldn't ask for a better person in my life.
I look forward to making some great friends here- I honestly need them. Sometimes I can be a little unused to change and I love to be able to talk things through.
If anyone wants to talk I am open to anything ask away! Thank you for having me here.
(btw- my username doesn't fit specification for the wheel of time names- can someone help me fix that since I didn't follow the rules before I made my account- so sorry I will take a penance)
I tried to post a photo of myself but it won't allow pictures for some reason.
