I'm an 18-year-old female from Singapore. My name is associated with a beastly ogre, though I'm not sure if that refers to the fictional Princess or the real me--I'm perennially stuck in an identity crisis. Perhaps because of that identity crisis, I have this inexplicable obssession with beauty products, which is pretty odd and shouldn't be revealed. Oops, think I just did.

I like reading books, especially mysteries and short stories. Even better if both are combined. My favourite book might be The Godfather by Mario Puzo, but Agatha Christie might give Vito Corleone a run for his money. Point for the Corleones--Agatha Christie's detectives are really old, compared to the hip young Corleons. Point for Poirot--Everyone ends up being killed in the Godfather anyway.

Apart from Dr. Hauschka and Agatha Christie, I'm also infatuated with languages because most of them are unintelligible to me. I think learning those languages fulfills my sekrit ambition of spyhood; I always wanted to eavesdrop on people's conversations. I'm really impatient though so that's got an adverse effect on my study of foreign tongues. Languages I've attempted to learn include German (two months) and Vietnamese (occasional phrases extracted from my best friend).

In short, I like discussing moisturizing masks and engaging in energetic exposition on Marple. And chillaxation. That's my favourite word.
