    'Ello from California!

    Hello everyone! :]

    I decided I would introduce myself, 'specially since I've been posting around more and more these days, it seems like. I've already met and been speaking with one person, but it would be great to meet more of you! I'm so far loving this community; nice to be around people who actually get it.

    I go by the name of Elliotte. I'm 20-years-old and from the bay area of California where I'm studying psychology. I'm a third year at university and am hoping to take a gap year once I graduate in order to a) work b) travel and c) of course spend a greater amount of time with my SO. <3 He's from Dublin, and that's the Dublin in Ireland and not California. Fun, fun, having such a distance between us </sarcasm> but we make it work. He's 18, 19 in December. Because he's a year and a half younger and because we're at a point in age where the gap seems bigger than it is (18 and 20 seems so vastly different in comparison to, say, 21 and 23), we like to joke about me being a cougar.

    Our story is a bit complicated but again, we've made it work. ;] And who doesn't have a story, right?

    Basically I'm not the best at introduction threads, but I figured I would post one. :P If you have any questions - and they can be small-talk or they can be whacky - feel free to shoot them my way and I'll respond and then add a question of my own to get to know you a little better, too! Other than that, hello and I hope to get to know some more of you as time goes on. :]

            @Mel - You're talking to someone who loves Mexican food, everything from proper, authentic Mexican food to Taco Bell's attempts! Guess that's a benefit to living in California; no shortage of it. If you could be any animal in the world, what would you be and why?

            @Rosebud - Thank you! I PMed you what university and returned a question there as well.

                  Everytime I hear the word "Dublin" it always makes me think of a joke one of my ex's used to tell me (which I used to think was absolutely hilarious lol):
                  What's the largest city in the world? Dublin, because it keeps dublin and dublin!
                  Lol, anyways, I'm Kristin nice to meet you lol

                    That Dublin joke is so bad... but it made me giggle like a madwoman. >_> Nice to meet you, too, Kristin, thank you for the laugh!

                        Lina - Why thank you, you should see the looks we get when he purrs at me in public.

                        E - Oh, we can be friends for sure. That is exactly how I feel about Mexican food :'D Fake Mexican, legit-cooked-by-abuela-type-food... Mmmmmmmm!
                        As for what animal I would be... Probably something migratory like a goose or something, just so I could go to Mexico when I felt like it xD

                          @Kristin - Hey, isn't it true that the worst jokes are always the most amusing? xD

                          @Mel - Gah, you're making me drool! I've eaten at my favourite local place and a couple taquerias these past few days and I still have this massive craving... likely because I went a month without it (same as American Mountain Dew; the Mountain Dew in Dublin was rancid). I will say that the Goose mention made me giggle, primarily because all I could think about was this Goose migrating to spend time in Mexico and stealing food from different stands and off tourists's plates. xDDDD

                            That was EXACTLY what I was picturing. *daydreams* What a life that would be LOL.
