KeyJester User Manual

(lengthy entry, ahoy!)
I think I wrote an introduction to who I am when I first fired up this blog, but that's a while ago, and I've changed so much since then that you could say I'm a completely different person. It's been over two years since I started on this blog (though I had three other blogs before that, and they're all filled with crap), and in those two years my life has turned up-side-down and I've gone through a complete change inside me. My taste has changed, my way of thinking has changed, and my general feelings have changed. The only thing that haven't changed much is my outside appearance, though even that has gone through some tiny changes. I really am a different person, and if you really, really knew me those years ago, you'd know exactly how different I am.

So, it's time for a new introduction. This is also to "welcome" any new readers I might have, as well as basically give you a User Manual on me if you're planning on getting to know me more. Make sure you read this before you decide to keep me in your life, cause this might just make you change your mind, haha! ;p

I'm a bit of a handful, and I'm fully aware of it, but I can be worth it, for the right kind of people.

• I was born on the 15th of January, 1985, which means that in this writing moment I am 28 years and 7 months old. Only 17 months until I'm 30!
• I'm of the female gender (woo!), and I'm usually extremely feminine. But I also have my extremely boy-ish sides, and I've often been told that my brain tends to act like a male. Whatever that means. XD
• In the short About Me section on the right here I state that I'm a lesbian, and that's also what I tell people, cause it's easier than explaining what I really am. In truth, I'm Wabbly. Yes, I had to make up my own definition of it. XD I feel attracted to, and can fall in love with, anyone, regardless of gender or of they're real people or fictional characters, but I'll only get physical with girls. Panromantic Homosexual, a friend of me called it (thanks for the fancy term, Sophie!).
• I'm independent and confident, but I am only human and have my bad days where I lose that confidence. But for the most part, I'm on top of the world, sure of who I am, and damned proud of it! I don't care what people say about me, but I won't tolerate bullshit either. Call me bad stuff to my face and you're looking for a fight. I'm not afraid to punch you.
• I'm sickly obsessed with keys, and I collect them. Be they actual keys, accessories shaped as keys, clothes with key pics on them, decorations with keys on them, or drawings/pictures of keys (or even the word key in different languages), I want them in my collection.  A key is the best gift you can ever give me.
• I love gaming of all sorts, though I mostly stick to RPGs, Online games or old fahsioned pen and paper roleplaying (D&D, Cthulhu). But I'm always open for trying something new.
• I collect gaming consoles as well, and so far I have: Playstation One, 2 and 3, the first Xbox, Nintendo 64, Gamecube and Wii. I also have a Gameboy Color, GB Advance, GB Advance SP, DS and a PSP. I'm proud of my collection, I am!
• My favourite game series ever is The Legend of Zelda. My second favourite is Final Fantasy (and I include Kingdom Hearts in that), and my third fav is Resident Evil. Other games I love is Grandia 1 & 2, Alundra, Dark Chronicle, and Folklore. The online games I'm fiddling with atm is Grand Fantasia, Lord of the Rings Online, Guild Wars 2, World of Warcraft and Aion Online.
• My number one favourite anime of all time is Fairy Tail, with One Piece on 2nd place, and my favourite manga is Sailor Moon.
• My favourite movie at the moment is FFVII: Advent Children Complete, though I generally enjoy all sorts of movies under the fantasy, sci-fi, comedy and/or action genre. I don't do drama, and romantic movies is too sappy for me. Mention Twilight and I'll punch you.
• I don't watch TV, but have a loooong list of series that I want to collect on DVD cause I really love them. Such as Andromeda, Firefly, Charmed, Buffy, Angel, Dark Angel, Supernatural, Ghost Whisperer, Heroes, Roswell, Stargate SG-1, Stargate Atlantis, Torchwood, Xena, Once Upon a Time, The Walking Dead, Legend of the Seeker, CSI: Las Vegas, CSI: Miami, CSI: NY, NCIS, NCIS: Los Angeles, Criminal Minds, and probably some other that I can't think of right now, haha!
• I enjoy reading as well, but I only read fantasy books. I get reality every day, so why read about it? My favourite books are in Norwegian (Som om jeg ikke var til, Våpensøstrene, Isfolket), but I also love two of Maggie Furey's book series - Aurian and Shadowleague - and the Hunger Games books by Suzanne Collins, and The Girl Who Circumnavigated Fairyland in a Ship of Her Own Making by Catherynne M. Valente (awesome book, that, and easily one of my favs!).
• I love music, and I'll always have music on when I'm at home. I'll listen to pretty much anything and everything, from dubstep or techno, to rap, pop or rock, depending on my mood. My spotify playlist is a weird mixture of chaos, and I love it.
• I draw and write a lot, but my real passion is design and creating things. Drawing and writing is just a means to show you what I have in my head. I'm a medium with a link to endless worlds, and my dream is to share it with you all.
• I'm an artist. I do art as a way of expressing who I am or how I feel, cause my art IS me, and though you are entitled to your opinions I will not appreciate ctiticism or suggestions on how to "improve" or make my art "more correct", unless I specifically ask you to, cause I will take that as a personal attack. I'm satisfied with who and what I am, and thus also satisfied with my art. Please respect that
• My characters mean more to me than life itself, so any attack towards them will be met with hostility and I will not hesitate to be mean as fuck. I'm protective of my "family".

• I am diagnosed with - and in the past, suffered heavily under - things such as Dissociative identity disorder,  Avoidant Personality Disorder, Dependent Personality Disorder, a slight Obsessive Compulsive Disorder, General Anxiety Disorder, Extreme social phobia, and with the possibilities of things such as Bipolar, ADD, and Post Traumatic Stress Disorder. These things used to rule my life, and I couldn't handle confrontation, rejection, social life, and life in general, without a complete breakdown and becoming suicidal.
• Even though I'm still diagnosed wih these things, I do not suffer under them anymore. I've learned to control them, and I am now almost a normal functional person. I don't have any trace of anxiety or social phobias, I don't depend on people anymore and though I still prefer to avoid confrontation, I can handle it if it happens. Most people won't even believe me when I tell them of the problems I've had, cause to them I seem so well functioning. I do have a split personality problem still, but for the most part I've got it under control, mostly because I've accepted it instead of fighting it. I know I've got other personalities "in my head" and that's okay. I'd like to think of it as adding more spice to my life. ;p
• My physical health has gotten pretty bad this past year, as I might have Fibromyalgia. It leaves me very tired and out of energy, and I also suffer from extreme pain all over my body. My joints, skeleton, muscles and sometimes even skin tends to ache all over, especially if it's raining or sour outside. My knees, especially, is huge problem for me, cause they constantly hurt, so stairs is like my biggest weakness right now. We're still trying to figure out what's causing all this, and because of it my physical functionability (is that even a word?) is extremely limited. When I have bad days, I can hardly make it out of bed, much less out of my own apartment.

• I'm somewhat introverted. Dealing with people can be draining for me, especially if I'm having bad health days, and when I'm in my "bubble" I'd rather not be bothered.
• My home is my sanctuary, safe place and bubble, and I am highly protective of it. Meaning that I really don't like surprise visits, or generally visits of any kind. People dropping in to say hi, and just check up on me before leaving after 5 min is something I can tolerate. If you want to actually visit, as in sit down and have coffee and/or just spend time with me, check beforehand if I'm okay with it! I really, really don't like having people in my bubble. Having guests over makes me uncomfortable, and it drains me, so I don't take initiative to invite people over.
• If I do, however, invite you over on my own initiative, you should feel fukken honoured! You just got a holy stamp of approval that not many people get, and even though the invitation might only be a one time thing, it's still pretty fukken special.
• The "standing invitation to come over whenever" stamp is so holy and unusual that I can actually count on one hand how many people got that stamp. These people are my dearest darlings, and if you ever hurt them then I will hurt you. Mkay?
• My home really is my bubble, and when I'm inside it it's hard to make me leave. I don't like people calling me or texting me when I'm in my bubble, cause it makes me uncomfortable, but snapchat is okay cause I'm not obliged to answer that, and I generally like taking snaps. Also, if you want me to come meet you or hang out with you when I'm in my bubble, then I'll most likely say no. It's not that I don't like you, or people in general, but my bubble is so fukken comfy that it's hard to leave it. XD That, and I'm insanely lazy. No, really, I'm lazy.
• If I am, however, already outside my bubble, like in town or something, then I'm up for almost anything! I love hanging out, and I'm pretty social when I'm out and about, and anything from having coffee at a cafe, going shopping, going to the movies, partying or just going for a walk is welcomed with open arms.
• I'm generally in love with life, and I like having people around me and doing things, but this only shows when I'm outside the bubble, unfortunately. My programming is weird.

• Alcohol! I have a very good relationship with it, and I'll have you know that aside from Boobs and Bacon, Beer is the love of my life. Alcohol changes a lot of my rules, and if alcohol is involved then I'll just tell you right away that I'm a different person to deal with.
• After one beer I'm average social and can even invite people into my bubble, as well as leave the bubble and do all sorts of things. I'd love to go out and have a beer or two at a bar, especially if it's summer and we can sit outside in the sun and just chat about random things. That's pure happiness for me. If I get on the tipsy side, you'll see my "I love the whole world" way of being, and I'll easily end up having an open house at my home. XD I get socially hungry when I drink, and I love to meet new people. I might be compensating for my everyday introverted self or something, lol. If I'm drunk, I might end up proposing to you as a way of telling you that you're an okay person. Yes, I actually did that once. I tend to overdo things a bit.
• I've got a big mouth in general, or, as we say here in Norway - Stor i kjæftn, snar å spreng (big mouth, but quick to run). But when I drink, I get 100 times worse. I'll promise you the world, meaning well, but not really capable of following up. I'm just so hungry for life, and I love everyone and everything, and want to show it in any way possible, which ends up in me making all sorts of crazy promises and saying stuff I really shouldn't. Don't take me too seriously when I'm drunk, or you'll have a bad time.
• If I do, however, say something you really want to know if I mean it or not, ask me again when I'm sober. If I still say the same, then I can promise you that I mean it. If not, then I'll probably explain to you what I actually meant. XD
• I don't really need to even have alcohol in my system to be fun and social and all of the above things (big mouthed and loving of everyone), but to get in that mood I need to leave my bubble first, and we've already established how hard that is. Beer is usually the best bait to get me to leave it. I never say no to beer. OwO
• Beer (in moderate portions, ofc!) just strengthens my actual personality and makes me energetic and happy. Wine keeps me calm and shows you my mature sides, while bubbly stuff such as champagne or sparkly wine makes me bubbly and childish and want to be all over the place. Drinks make me stupid drunk, shots totally kills me and I'll always end up throwing up, tequila (or, the right amount of it) makes me daring, and Cognac or whiskey makes me tough and sometimes bitchy. Give me coffee and cognac and I'll try to take over the world!

In general, the things to keep in mind about me is that when I'm at home, I'm lazy and introverted and hard to reach, but I'm a happy and life-loving person that loves to experience things, and everything from gaming, partying or just having a cup of coffee in town is something I love doing. I love with all my being, and I'll always give my all for my loved ones. I'll have a smile for you any day, and if you need to cry then my shoulder is always ready. I might not have the right words to give you, and I can be somewhat awkward at times, but I care. And I love. I live in a world of my own, and it's a world that will always be a part of me, and that I'll never leave no matter what, but if you're the right person I might just invite you into my world. You really won't regret being a part of it.
