Hi. I decided to finally take the plunge into social anxiety. I'm not really much of a forum person, and honestly I'm just here for Clraik rank.
The biggest stumbling block is that I don't really know what I can offer since I'm not super talented. I'm ok with spreadsheets? I'm generally thought to be amusing and I can help with essays and other writery things (I'm a good editor). I'm pretty good at finding stuff, since I have a lot of time on my hands. And if you happen to use discord and Karuta, I'm pretty big into that.

As for who I am, um. I like cats and rats, and I have a lot of nontraditional pet knowledge (bred chinchillas for 3 years, ask for horror stories). I do a lot of reading and if you ever want fantasy recs, I can hook you up. I know the good obscure anime? I can talk your ear off about Princess Tutu for hours. I've also been getting back into needlecraft, and I have a lot of hand on craft knowledge. I can spin, I know the basics of weaving and crochet, but I can't knit to save my life.

The most exciting thing I have in Neopets right now is trying to decide how to use a fountain fairy dip. Leaning towards water for one of my shoyrus.


Yep. I'm weird and awkward. That's all I got =/

Hope to see you around

Welcome, @(you need an account to see links). Breeding chinchillas is really cool! I wish we were able to have cool exotic pets here, but they don't allow it.

Welcome to clraik! Thanks for joining and deciding to introduce yourself!

welcome! <3 i wasn't much of a forum person either, but i've met so many lovely people here the anxiety has been melting away.
i've been sewing for a super long time, but i'm currently picking up crochet myself. crafting for best hobby tbh.

[zypiris]

That's very reassuring. What kind of yarn do you use? I hung out in a yarn store for a while and I got an opportunity to use bamboo and angora. The bamboo is mildly annoying to work with, but it meshes well with most fibers and it usually adds in a nice smooth feel and lots of color.

Welcome zypiris, its nice to have you here! Never any pressure, participate as much or as little as you like I'm half tempted to ask about the chinchilla horror stories lol!

Welcome to CK Zypiris, nice to meet you.
Chinchillas are adorable, my friend has 2 called Rambo and Ronnie.
What is your favorite shoyru color? Ive always had a big soft spot for the Maraquan (turtle)

Welcome zypiris!
Tbh from your introduction I feel like there's a lot you can contribute around here!
Obscure good anime, huh? What do you think about Revue Stralight? :3c
Hope to see you around the forums ^~^

Welcome!

I'm also a (low-level hobbyist) weaver and have done a bit of drop-spindling here and there! I've never really tried crochet, but also can't knit to save my life. We have creative events every so often, so hopefully you'll have a chance to show off (or you could post in one of our ongoing art threads).
