Name: Emerusmerlinus, my alias is a misspelled of my favorite all times fiction character from Mary Stewart's book The Crystal Cave. Also, he is the most well known legend on the English speaking world as in Merlin the Magician or King Arthur's tales. Other Alias are: Emerusemer, mystic_sprite1969, cyngrigar so far.
Age: I am an old soul with the body of an almost forty years old woman; however, I am neither young nor old, I just am.
Height: You know that great things come in small packages that it is me only 4'9'' tall.
Weight: Well, let's say that I strive to be like the Buddha; although, so far I have manage to look only like the Buddha. Let's no go there.
Hair Color: My natural color is dark-brown with natural highlights ranging between bluish-black or reddish-black. However, I've been known to sport a red-head, and blond-highlights on occasion. I claim temporary insanity for those times. The longest look I have sport is waist length and the shortest boyish-cut above the ears. Currently, I cut it nape long.
Skin Color: I am suppose to have brown skin; however, it is not dark nor fair it looks more yellowish; although, I claim to be light brown and I am sticking to it.
Nationality: I was lucky to be born in the good old USA or not depending on your liking of my country. In any case, I am Mexican-American and that is that.
Language: My mother's language is Spanish; therefore, my first language is Spanish and my father's language is English. So you have it, English is my second language. I dabble a little on Russian couldn't go pass first year. Tantalize on French just couple of weeks and I was a goner. Stick with Arabic language for awhile since the ex-hubby was from an Arab-speaking country and some of the exes where too. It seems I have a thing for Arabs. I am seriously thinking on learning Japanese just to make sure Kazuya Minekura did intend to imply a more intimate relationship among my favorite Saiyuki characters. I would hate it that the English translation imply my favorite couples pairing (Sanzo/Goku, Hakkai/Goyjo) when the author did not. Anyways, I am just thinking seriously.
Hobbies: Reading, I am like the devouring monster of Literature especially fiction: fantasy-romance, romance, romance, romance, anything romance don't care F/M, M/M, demons/humans, humans whatever as long as it has a beautiful form (I'm too shallow). What an incurable romantic I am. Poetry, Music almost every kind except Rap, I can't stand that gangster kind of shit. TV romance/fantasy movies and lately Anime. I collect Tarot cards, stones the rare the better, quartz, any kind of stone precious, semi-precious, etc. Well as long as my budget allows me to buy it. I am not rich you know. I am only a lowly cashier.
Favorite Books/Authors: 1. One Thousand and one Arabian Nights (It was the first fairy tale book my mother read to me, so I suppose that is the reason of certain obsession over Arabs.) 2. Mary Stewart's Merlin Trilogy and The Wicked Day (If there is truly a dream man, mine is Merlin the Magician-- dark-black eyes, dark-black hair, feeble body type or effeminate; however, with strong personality or character.) 3. Stephenie Meyer's Twilight, New Moon, Eclipse, and now the barely release Breaking Dawn. I must add that at this point I hate Mrs. Meyer for her childish behavior of refusing to finish Midnight Sun. I understand her disappointment; however, I think if she really is a writer she can overcome that particular offset and write a better novel. It is not like the ending is going to change. Where is her creativity? Whatever, I hate the bitch right now. 4. Richelle Mead's Vampire Academy series (damn, I hate series they just torture you to no end. I must know what happens next.). Note: Currently, I am reading Journey to the West by Wu Cheng'en translated by W. J. F. Jenner, damn Saiyuki now I am stuck reading this three volume set.
Favorite Anime: Sighs! Saiyuki of course but before those handsome men entered my life in order of appearance (I mean I'm listing in the order I first discovered them.): 1. Sailor Moon (I'm hoping to buy the DVDs collection soon-- If Santa is reading this, I've been a good little girl lately, pretty please-- preferable by Christmas.) 2. Saiyuki (I'm happy to boast that I splurge my vacations savings on buying the DVDs collection so I own SI, SII (Ep. 1-50), Requiem-- The movie, Saiyuki Reaload, and Saiyuki Reload Gunlock-- Vol. I-- My savings run out so I'll have to wait a little longer for the rest; however, it is so worth it.) 3. Descendants of Darkness (Yami no Matsuei) Wow! Talk about your handsomer threesome. 4. Kyo Kara Maoh! It has it all angst, comedy and of course Yaoi (Love-- Yuri and Wolfram) and above everything else romance, fantasy and hansome men (Another boast, I'm happy to share that I'm going without eating for a month, but I so own the first season (Ep. 1- 39) Don't worry, by not eating, I mean fast food, I have to suck it up and I must cook my food. However, I'm still missing SII (Ep 40-78) which is not being completely release on the states yet and SIII (Ep 79-117) that it still not even completely translated yet. I hate not understanding Japanese. 5. Loveless I'm such a sucker for the blooming relationship between Soubi and Ritsuka; although, the story line is hard to follow and the fact that there is only twelve episodes an unfinished anime, what a sad thing. Regardless, I still love it. 6. Kizuna I'm a sucker for childhood romances. 7. Sukisho It's great comdey, romance and betrayal love the whole Sora/Yuro & Nao/Ran business 8. Gravitation OMG! Is like seeing Kyo Kara Maoh! reversed hehehe! Is like Shuichi resembles Yuri such a moronic idiot and Yuki kinda gives off the Wolfram vibes; however, Shuichi is courageous enough to proclaim his love for Yuki while Yuri is a repressed moron. Now, Yuki is an asshole that doesn't deserve Shuichi's devotion but I so love to see Wolfram behaving like that towards Yuri. Hehehe! I'm such a masochist. 9. Junjo Romantica while I am a totally die hard Misaky/Usagi fan, I so love the Junjo Terrorist arc, Miyagi and Shinobu are so cute. I do like also the Junjo Egoist but not as much. 10. Fafner I cannot believe I'm listing this fuck up anime as one of my favorites; however, I'm ashamed to admit it is despite how much I hate it too. There is that "There is a thin line between love and hate," the bastards kill my favorite couple or at least only one stays alive. What would my sweet nature Kazuki do without my heartless Soushi? I have to admit the lines between those two is what makes this fuck up anime one of my favorites.
Personal Note: I have been writing since I first learned how to use a pencil probably first or second grade. It was mostly poetry to score good brownie points. I was never compelled to write stories; however, I did dream of one day writing a novel. I started thinking of titles for my novel when I was a freshman in high school. It was not until I got hook into a TV show back in 2003 named Queer as Folk (QAF) that I actually begin to write.
