Hello teamliquid. I am here to introduce myself to all of you. I have been away from the internet for about 8 or 9 months now, and away from Starcraft for over a year. I left Starcraft because I had to concentrate on looking for a job in order to support my family. A few months later we were unable to continue to pay our internet bill, and it was shut off.

Circumstances have changed recently and I will have internet again soon (my boyfriend is paying for it) and am rather excited about this blog section in TL. I think I'll have fun using it. So here goes.

Real name: April
Gender: Female
Age: 22
Location: Stockton, CA, USA
Race: Zerg
Playing since: 2000
BNet names: USWest- Niji[Shock] // USEast- LadyZerg // ICCup- Niji[Shock]
Former akas: USWest- neKo[cK], drOp.XtC, Only)SprinG, IA-poOfy, NrG.Niji
Skill level: I totally suck D:

I started playing Starcraft when I was 14, and I've been hooked ever since. I've never really played any other online games besides Starcraft because to me, nothing compares, and I have a great love for this game that has been a big part of a good portion of my life.

I do have a few other hobbies.

I like to read, mostly fantasy, sci-fi, and thrillers. My favorite book is "The Pillars of the Earth" by Ken Follett.

I like to draw and use photoshop for my art. I'm not that great with PS, but I try. I go on a site that a few of you probably know about, which is called gaiaonline.com. I do avatar art for 'gaia gold' and can probably safely say that my art is in very high demand and I make a small fortune from it. My account on gaia is 'Synonymous'.

I went to college for a couple years at a local community college, and at first had the plan of majoring in computer science. I changed it to Japanese language. I have a fascination with other languages and cultures, especially asian ones. If I ever succeed in becoming fluent in Japanese (which is a lot harder than I thought it'd be) I would like to also learn Chinese and Korean. I can speak, read and write Japanese at probably a low intermediate level.

I am obsessed with music, and I mostly like rock. I know that's broad, but I was never good at classifying music. Most of the music I like is Japanese, as is my favorite band, L'Arc~en~Ciel. I also like progressive rock bands like Pink Floyd, Porcupine Tree, Dream Theater, Rush, and Camel.

I know that if I type too much, no one will read this, so I'll just end by saying I hope to work up to a semi-decent rank on ICCup, and I'm taking up any offers if anyone wants to help train my zerg. I really need it. This time around I am going to try some new approaches to my training because I never got very far in the past and progressed very slowly.

I hope to be able to game/chat with some of you. Thanks for reading. Bye~

Unfortunately the picture of you in the member's database is fake because I've seen MySpace whores use it ):

Unless you are the original girl off of whom everyone faked, which is highly unlikely.

intrigue: I missed the Otakon too, because I didn't know about them at the time. I was fortunate enough to see HYDE during his Faith tour in San Fransisco, though.

fanatacist: Please tell me you are joking. Can you show me one of those MySpace pages? I really doubt there are other people using my picture on the internet and claiming it is them... but if they are that's really troubling. >_<

fanatacist, you need that douche picture in your profile, and being a myspace whore myself, I've never seen that picture. Stop being drunk.

I believe the paranoia is justified. We all know girls don't exist on the internet.

Seriously though, welcome back Niji-z. You have good music taste...

My friend has a few of them, I will try to contact him ASAP to confirm it. Sorry in advance if it's not you, I was quick to judge, but I swear I've seen that picture around 2-3 years ago under someone else's name, and they've since turned out to be a fake. It's not girls on the internet paranoia, just previous experience.

Once again, really sorry if I made a mistake.
Peace~

April you homo. We'll have to play some games one of these days. I haven't touched SC in a really long time. You could probably take me now.

ulszz: Yes that would be great. I desperately need the practice.

Elric: Thanks, some of the music I like is good. Some sucks but I still like it. :D

fanatacist: It's okay. I'd be the same way.

Russ: LOLHI. I had no idea you were on TL. Shows how much I know about this place. I haven't played SC in a year so... I don't know. I think it could go either way. I'll give you a ring on MSN when I get net at my place.

ilovezil: Oh, good idea. Why didn't I ever think of that before? -_-... Which reminds me, I owe you a sign Russ. I forgot what you wanted it to say, though.

Sigr: Yeah, you probably didn't see me because I only started posting right around the time I lost my internet.

Here's something I did recently for my bf who plays CS (not as good as your stuff):

I've always wanted to do some zerg art but it's so daunting.

BuGz: That is correct.
