Long Post: About Me

itsalwaysyou_jwHello, all!
So it's been a couple weeks and I've yet to introduce myself properly. I'm absolutely terrible at introduction posts so take this info dump as-is:
My name is Sami, I'm a 24 years old asexual from Seattle, Washington. Last year, I graduated from Arizona State University where I graduated Magna Cum Laude with a degree in Psychology.
I have many interests (Marvel, Disney, Star Wars, etc) but my true passions are Harry Potter, Sherlock Holmes, musical theatre, and various sitcoms such as Parks & Rec, Friends, Frasier, and Arrested Development. Most people who know me in real life will know the full extent of my obsession with musical theatre. I simply love it. If you're familiar with musicals, some of my favorites are: The Last Five Years, Hamilton (obviously), The Bridges of Madison County, Something Rotten, and In the Heights. There are many, many more that I simply love, but this post is not about that.
I have a perfect, amazing, beautiful cat named Loki. He is a total lap cat, obsessed with cuddles and tummy rubs. He is a perfect boy and I love him so much.
I also have a perfect boyfriend. He's goofy, hilarious, kind, and a complete Hufflepuff. He's completely untainted by concepts of toxic masculinity and I'd be lost without him. Here is a picture of on our anniversary:
Anywho, this is my face:
As I'm sure you have all noticed, I love writing. I mean, I really love writing. Days without it are no good. Ideas for new stories plague me faster than I could ever possibly write them. Fan fiction is incredibly fun to write and a wonderful therapeutic device for me. I suffer from severe depression and even this silly advent calendar challenge I'm doing helps get me up in the morning. Writing releases me from the terrible grip my mental illness holds over me. I just deeply love writing. I finished a 110k original novel in September and plan on editing it in 2019 to submit for publication. I look forward to posting updates on that as it comes along!
Just a one more thing:
I work two jobs for a total of 55-60 hours per week. It's why I'm always exhausted, cranky, and apologizing for late updates. One of my jobs is a simple retail position at Bath & Body Works. The other is as a vocal instructor with Guitar Center. I adore singing and I love teaching other people how to do it too.
If you're still reading this, more power to you. I would have stopped at "many interests."
See y'all around!:)
