Hello, everyone. I'm Ana and I just earned my official membership ;)
Here are some things about myself:
-I am 20 years old (21 on 2/1) and a college student: at the moment, you will find me out of college. I am taking a break, working some, reading some, going out some, and starting school in New York City in the spring.
-I am a Fine Arts major: perhaps concentrating on Painting, or Printmaking...Although I don't write often, I enjoy writing when I do and someday I want to write for a Visual Arts magazine and also go into Curating.
-I live in Miami-Dade county: I actually live in Hialeah, but if it makes anyone feel better about knowing where a place is, you can say that I live in Miami...
-I have my own little library: I've been packing lately and time came when I had to pack my books. I discovered that I had close to 100 books! It didn't look that way to me.
-No, I've not read ALL of them: I do like to collect old books, like the ones that libraries sell to get rid of. I prefer Fiction, and if it must be Non-Fiction, then I prefer the Social Sciences.
-(My book collection consists of almost all the categories that books go into in a library, including religion...)
-Things I love include: music, art (including film), the arts, literature, and dancing, oh! and ... I'm sure I'm forgetting something else.
-Favorite authors: Charles Dickens, Tennesee Williams (yea, yea, playwright, I know), Robert M. Pirsig, Gabriel García-Márquez, Rubén Darío, Pablo Neruda, among others (it's pretty hard to think with all my books packed up!, believe me, there are many more authors in the english language literature, but I really can't think right now. )
-Favorite novels: "Bright Lights Big City", "Zen and the Art of...", "The Little Prince", "Parable of the Sower", and yes, "Wuthering Heights" too! others included as well.
-Lastly, but not least: I am bilingual and with a little bit of a third language. I bet you can guess which languages I speak...(the middle one is the one that i practice but don't actually speak.)
Well, now on to read "The Diamond Age"
p.s.-I love short stories and plays!
