Steph

Interests: Absolutely adore Anime and some of my favorites are Parasyte, Attack on Titan, Death Note, Demon Slayer, Aggretsuko, One Punch Man, Slam Dunk, One Piece...

I have a pet chinchilla called 蕃薯 (Sweet Potato) in Chinese. If you have heard or watched the popular animation called Totoro by Hayao Miyazaki then you would know that chinchillas are super cute!!

Love reading and my current favourite author is Haruki Murakami. Some of his must-reads are Colorless, Men Without Women, and What I Talk About When I Talk About Running.

Currently studying the Japanese Language and hope that one day I can switch off the subtitles whenever I watch anime or J Drama! :D

When I do get some free time (once in a blue moon), I do like a bit of hardcore gaming with my online buddies.
