Introductions
« on: December 11, 2008, 10:39:28 AM »
Hello! I am new here, and I was thinking how helpful it would be if there was a thread devoted to "introductions"--so I can get to know all you experienced RAF-ers and maybe you could learn a little about me. I'll go first:

My name is Megan G., I am currently 22 years old and I work in my local hospital (nights, mind you) as a Nurse (an RN, a real nurse). I am married and currently expecting my first baby. We live in North Carolina, on the East Coast, USA. I play WOW online (Stonemaul for my allies, Shadow Council for my hordies) and I love RPGs. I am also into astrology, although I won't force it on anyone. I have a myspace page if anyone cares that much, just message me and i'll send you the link.

I used to read Animorphs when I was a kid--I was first drawn to the cover at a Book Fair in my elementary school, and while I never finished the series, I am currently trying to work my way back through them (please don't tell me how it ends!).
I also read part of the Everworld series, as I kind of got bored of the Animorphs (not because there's anything wrong with the series, I just really enjoy trying new things--variety IS the spice of life, you know :P) and I am rereading those as well (again, no spoilers, please!).

So, I hope that some of you (at least) will post some replies so I can get a feel for what you are all like and what kind of community this is.

Thank you for your time!

ooh congrats on the kid!
hopefully you aren't too attached to your sanity or that it isn't a job requirement or a mothering requirement because if you stay...well...it won't be in tact for long!
welcome!

Welcome ^^
About the spoils, be careful... About everybody here already read all the Animorphs, so they spoil everywhere... me too ^^' About Everworld, it's easier: don't go on the Everworld threads! (except "ebooks", we don't spoil on this one...).
Have fun and I won't congrat you for the baby, because everybody already did  >:D

Thanks everyone! And no worries, my sanity was never intact :P

And yes, RN does stand for registered nurse, I just stated that I was a 'real' nurse because i have run across lots of people who work in the nursing profession and call themselves nurses, when their titles are actually "Nursing assistant" or "Patient Care Technician;" maybe it was petty of me, but I was simply differentiating myself from the Not-quite-a-nurse-yet nurses.

So is anyone else gonna tell me a little about themselves, here? hehe.

Thanks for the warm welcome, btw.

I think, if you wanna know more about everybody, you'll have to check all the presentations on RAF, and many messages in "life board", "general v2" or even "the boring board"... Good luck ;)
But Tocade said it, so... I'm one of the most hatred women in Japan... because I'm Scorpion ;) (in Japan, they think Scorpion women are violent and crazy...)
I'll never find any Japanese boyfriend T_T

Welcome to RAF, megang.

I am a Scorpio, and born in the Year of the Rat.  And that's pretty much the extent of my knowledge of the zodiacs and astrology . . . without runnin' to Wikipedia.

Congrats, on your soon-to-be-here firstborn.
