Coming out of my cage and I've been doing just fine
Gotta gotta be down, because I want it all
It was only a fish
IT WAS ONLY A FISH
#now I'm out of the sea #and I'm up on the land #and I'm growing a leg #and I'm learning to stand #now I'm taking a step #I'm no longer a fish #I don't know what I am #but I'm going to RUN NOW #OUT UNDER THE SUN NOW #THERE I GOOOOOOO
So apparently the last time I opened tumblr, I was 19.
I’m 24 now.
Since I last opened tumblr, I’ve lived in 3 different cities and got my Bachelor’s degree. I did my thesis on histories of offline fandom and fanfiction, and now I’m getting my PhD studying fandom in all its different permutations.
I’m in the BTS fandom now, and am writing a lot! I use a different Ao3 now, but I’m very proud of how my work has grown and changed.
I still own 3 dictionaries and am trying my best.

Quick Guide to Punctuating Dialogue
“This is a line of dialogue,” she said.
“This,” he said, “is a sentence split by a speech tag.”
“This is a full sentence,” she said. “This is a new sentence.”
“This is a sentence followed by an action.” He smiled. “They’re separate sentences, because I didn’t speak by smiling.”

Our friends over @charitywater have been helping us figure out exactly where our donation should go. Right now, we’re looking at 2 projects in particular: one in Rwanda and one in Niger.
Niger Water Project
The climate in some parts of Niger worsens water supply issues and threatens maternal health. But we can help: choosing this project would bring clean water to 475 people and give community members time back in their days.
Rwanda Water Project
47% of people in the Gicumbi district in Rwanda lack access to adequate water. If we choose Rwanda, we can bring clean water to 275 people and help charity: water reach full coverage of the region.
