My name's Emily, and I'm 19 and live in Madison, WI. I am a student at the University of Wisconsin. I seem to have a knack for learning languages, and my favorite language is Finnish followed closely by Swedish. I'll probably end up majoring in Scandinavian Studies, and I'm considering also majoring...

If you want to major in Spanish linguistics, then do it. I myself am very interested in languages, especially "useless" ones such as Swedish and Finnish. People always ask me what I'm going to use these languages (or a degree in Scandinavian Studies or Linguistics) for, which is a question that is b...

I've read the Encyclopedia Dramatica article on Asperger's, and quite honestly, I found myself laughing at a lot of it. What stands out in my memory as particularly hilarious is when it states something along the lines of, "the horrible implications of Asperger's include not being able to make small...

My favorite genre is punk rock, and my favorite band in that genre and in entire realm of music is a Finnish band called Klamydia. They have been described as "a vulgar-styled humor band," and I love their sound and the fact that listening to them keeps my Finnish skills up, especially when I go lon...

"Sorceress," most prominently, due to my tendency to yell (or hiss) foreign swear words at people, especially Finnish ones which strikingly resemble curses or spells. Although I will admit that I exacerbated this name calling (since I found it so amusing) by posting a video on YouTube in which I dec...
