Major project at work has me working >12 hour days -- should be back around after the end of this month has passed. *whew*
I'm also still trying to finish off my manga list. The anime one is done though :D
I'm pretty bad at scoring, so don't take those as hard facts.

Me and MAL:
I am one of seven Art Jam hosts over at the Art Jam Club. If you like drawing, taking pictures, sculpting, sewing, or anything artsy, I encourage you to take part! You don't have to be a member of the club either - all contests are run through the Creative Corner forum board.
I also co-host the Icontests run through the anime/manga icons club. If you like making or viewing icons, feel free to join the club and take part in the contests :)
Otherwise, you can usually find me pretending to be knowledgeable in the Anime Episode/Manga Discussion boards. I spend a lot of my time there because I actually read with others post ^^ (<-- pet peeve), and the rest of my time not committed to contests is chatting with people in clubs and answering comments on my page. But I warn you, I'm horrible with PMs that are not contest related! xD

Me and Anime:
The things that draws me most to anime and manga is the art, with plot coming in close behind. On one hand, I love that a series is 13/26 episodes, and it's done. It has a reason to run, and it ends.
I don't know when I started watching anime (Sailor Moon or Dragonball Z was probably my first) but I've always loved animation. I drew countless of Sailor Moon, Mummies Alive!, and Neon Genesis pictures when I was growing up (so it's not limited to anime!). I'll still go and see a Disney film in the theatres - and without taking my kid siblings either xD
I love recommendations for new anime, and especially, new manga. Romance is a huge element for me (I am a romantic at heart), but I usually like some sort of story around it, and action and mystery are cool, too. Blind romance and wishy-washy female (and male) leads usually irritate me to no end. Stupid continual love triangles, squares, circles are also tiresome.
I seem to go for rejected and mysterious male characters. Unfortunately, this often means the main lead usually doesn't end up with the character I want them too :( I also usually end up going for the underdog, or the character that fans least want the lead to end up with. Does this mean I have a fickle personality?

Me, Me, Me:
I just completed my BSc in Electrical Engineering in Dec '07, and am looking to begin my MSc in Sept '08. Biomedical Engineering is what I truly want to do -- this is where I believe I will be able to make the most impact and be the most of help to society.
Oops, I accidentally deleted my comment somehow o.o Now to retype x.x
No problem ^^
Hmm, can't say I've ever thought about being an only child... I've grown up living with so many people in the house, it'd just be weird xD. But, if I had the choice, I'd probably choose not to be one, mainly due to the fact I hold to my stereotypical views that only children (Does that phrase even sound right? o.o) tend to be lonely or spoilt brats (No offence to any only children out there, this is just something based on the few only children I've known throughout my life + television programmes o.o). However, I wouldn't mind less siblings xD - Less people to feed and less bedrooms needed, ahaha xD. Right now I have to share a bedroom with my two little sisters who like to mess the room up then expect me to clean it, so yeah that's pretty irritating xD
Lmao! Most of the information on my profile is random stuff that I just felt like putting there... I'll probably jazz it up when I feel like it :3
Hnm, I generally don't read manga. But, knowing me, I'll probably start reading the Ouran/xxxHolic mangas and fall in love with 'em xD... I already know two of the major shocks in the manga:
TamakixHaruhi kiss and Haruhi rejects Hikaru's love (I was routing for that couple as well x.x)
:O! ouch...are you okay? O__O!!! omgsh><"!!!...that sucks=/ bleh, i get bit by stuff too-__-' i don't even know if i've got any allergic reactions><" i hope your getting better though:)

btw, thanks for your hard work^^ couldn't do it without you:)!
Haha, yes, the real world unfortunately won't wait!
Ah, yes, I noticed the announcement in the club. On one hand, I am excited; on the other hand, I've been seriously cutting back on my anime and manga intake, and by the time there are enough episodes out that I would watch it, I might have lost interest. >_> Might. Maybe. We'll see.
PS: Sorry for the delay... lack of a computer can do that to you! I tried to login from my cellphone, but it wouldn't let me. :(
I liked 1st season of Code Geass very much, but the 2nd season disappointed me a bit. Probably I had too high expectations, but I think it's quite similar to first season, except for some new characters... (I thought they would have explained a lot of things, but they didn't... yet ^^)
Oh,Heyyy!It's No Problem.Actually,I Should Be Sorry To Have Replied So Late,As Well.And,Yes,I'm Also In The Middle Of Life - It's Always Good,No? =D
I Love TRC!I Haven't Read The Manga Yet But I'm Totally Into The Anime.However,The 2nd Season...Disappointed Me.I Also Hated The English Dubbing - Why Aren't Their Voices The Same As Before?I Also Watch Subbed Ones But I Started Watching Anime,Dubbed.
...I'm Planning On Watching The OVA.I Can't Wait To See Saoran,Kurogane,And Faye! =D
I don't have a comp of my own. T_T I'm using my mom's now because I got the chance to come back over, but next week I'll probably not have any access outside of my cellphone, and I'm not sure how well I'll be able to use MAL on such an itty bitty screen. If I had one, though, it'd definitely be the first thing unpacked. XD
I plan on getting a laptop in the next month or two. Depends on whether I decide that the laptop is more important, or a bike. 'Cause I really need a bike where I live. :/
