the "it's summer, i got my hat on backwards and it's time to make some friends" friending meme

if you're new to the concept of a friending meme, a general gist is that you fill out the form below, and then comment around to people who have similar interests to you, or who seem cool, or you've seen around and wanted to add to your social media circle, etc etc. request to add them on their social media and meet new people!

is your personal dw account open for friending?: Yes! I post in it pretty irregularly atm, like only a couple times per year. It's mostly?? friends only but I'm always open for new friends.

interests:
HISTORY. HISTORY. I have my Bachelor's in history and i love it. Mostly medieval Western European history and also 20th century world history. I also like writing, mostly fanfiction, but I haven't done much of that since before college. I love DWRPing, but I'm not active in that atm either (also because of college). I also really love making icons and other graphics, although what I make is usually highly biased to my personal tastes and not much else.

I like reading too! When I'm not reading about history, I'm into fantasy, YA novels, comics, and anything with a healthy dose of snide dismissal. I'm also an avid doujinshi collector! I've been collecting for almost ten years now. It's one of my favorite hobbies, even though my Japanese is terrible. Also I love playing video games: mostly rpgs, mmos, adorable life sims, and anything that doesn't require too much skill.

In short: History, DWRP, writing, reading, making graphics, classic rock, collecting doujinshi, playing video games

fandoms:
the big ones: Legend of Zelda, Dragon Ball, Pretty Cure, Eternal Sonata, Escaflowne

other stuff i like enough to actually list: Final Fantasy (X and earlier, mostly), Kingdom Hearts (I have a love/hate relationship with it), Star Wars, Full Metal Panic!, Phantom of the Opera, Futurama, Star Trek (mostly TOS), Borderlands, Sid Meyer's Civilization games, Bastion, Mega Man, Skies of Arcadia

anything else?:
