[Julikins]

Name: Julie or OokamiJ

Email: i_love_to_smile505[at]hotmail[dot]com

Interests: Aside from what's already been on my profile, most of it is just the usual stuff a typical millennial would be interested in at least I would think... Very artsy and likes talking about mental health and various psychology topics as a casual outsider. Technology of course is a big topic, except NFTs/Crypto and Generative AI usage.

Pokemon and Sonic franchise are big heck yeahs! Current reads are a big hook in for me as well. Currently into Sanrio characters again as well. Big favorites being My Melody and Cinnamoroll.

Anything else: Autistic and Anxiety influence reactions and such, but I do try to keep myself from letting the negative aspects of my neurodiversity from spoiling the fun. Don't always respond immediately, but I do try to make the replies worth your wait time! Will sometimes alternate between using a PC and my android phone when composing a response but otherwise, no difference in how emails are handled. Signatures might be a quick giveaway as to where it's sent from though.

English is my native language, but I've been trying oh so badly to learn Japanese and relearn Spanish from my schooling days.

Post-editing this in: Feel free to mention Melonland forums when sending the email. I do sometimes get a lot of spam and such. Most of the time, I delete emails if I know it's not expected/newsletter. Good probability that I wouldn't accidentally delete one from a Penpal, but I rather not risk it either.
