About Me

“The next morning, Bitterblue walked into the library with a journal under her arm and stopped before Death’s desk” - Bitterblue, Kristin Cashore

Hello, everyone! Welcome to my About Me page, a page that’s title is so self-discriptive that it blows my mind.

My name is Alice and I am a fourth year university student studying English Literature and a first year polytech student studying Tourism.

I’m New Zealand born and have an older sister, elvesarebad, and a little brother who is a guitar genius. Both have a reasonably firm grip on mathematics, a skill which I both envy and am incredibly glad I do not possess all at the same time.

I was raised mostly by my dad. He’s an engineer at a fruit processing plant and, despite having spent years listening to him describing the various mishaps at his work, I still have no idea what a press is. I saw one in person once but it mustn’t have made a very big impression because all I remember of that day was developing a distaste for carrot juice.

I’m also a writer. Between my intensely depressing bouts of inspiration block, I’ve managed to write at least one novel. It was terrible but I learnt a lot in the process. I have set it aside in favour of a new project, which I hope to complete by the end of my time at university. If not, I hope to spend my time helping my sister start up her bookstore. That’s if she’ll have me, of course!

I love to read. My favourite author is Sarah Beth Durst, who I happily followed off a cliff when she released Drink Slay Love, a book about vampires and vampire hunting were-unicorns. To this day, I still regret nothing.

I am also hopelessly addicted to movies, miniseries (forever waving the miniseries flag), and TV shows. My favourite movie is Timeline but I also really love The Princess Bride. I’m also a huge Disney fan and my favourite Disney movie is Beauty and the Beast but my favourite Disney princess is Jasmine. Along with Disney, I also have a passion for Bollywood films. Trust me, don’t let what people have told you about Bollywood put you off. Pretty much all the Bollywood films I have seen are amazing! My favourite miniseries is BBC’s North and South but I also love Syfy’s Tinman, The Tenth Kingdom, and Syfy’s Alice.

A FINAL FEW THINGS:

  1. This is a multifandom blog.
  2. Sometimes, I am a terrible speller and I muddle words. Also, I abuse capslock on a daily basis.
  3. I am openly bisexual.
  4. I accept that everyone has different opinions but I refuse to stand aside when someone blatantly hates on anything or anyone.
  5. If you would like me to tag for anything specifically, such as trigger warning or spoilers, just stop by my ask and tell me. 

Thank you for following me (or considering to follow me) and I hope you enjoy my blog!
