Things I like:

Phantom of the Opera (in all its incarnations except the Robert England from what I hear of it), Les Miz, The Secret Garden (the musical), the original Star Wars trilogy, the Lord of the Rings trilogy (all incarnations except the animated movie and the American attempt at a radio production), Titanic and the songs from Sailor Moon. More generally, I like classical music, adventure stories (especially those that combine adventure and romance), love stories with happy or uplifting endings, all things romantic, studying cool academic subjects and anime.

Things I don't like:

Sudden loud noises, hospitals and doctors or anything medical, people who hold to antiquated stereotypes about Blind people, on-screen bullying or sexual violence (though for some reason I don't mind fight or battle scenes, maybe because I can't see them), Sinicism, fanaticism and insects that fly around my head.

Age? 24

Occupation? Professional student, writer and singer.

Marital status? Lost love.

Favourite characters:

Erik, AKA The Phantom of the Opera; Luke Skywalker, yoda and Darth Vader; Arwen (as portrayed in Peter Jackson's wonderful films); Eponine (from Les Miz); Jane Eyre (from the original novel); Mameha (from Memoirs of a Geisha); Jack Dawson (from Titanic); Marianne (from Sense and Sensibility); Alucard (from Helsing) and I strongly suspect that Tuxedo Mask will be added to this list once I get hold of some Sailor Moon episodes.
