Why, hello there, friends. The name's ShortyPaws. Firstly, I'd like to thank Ivic_Wulfe and Leeward for their hospitality. You sure know how to make this kitty feel welcome :3 I believe it's customary that I tell you more about myself. I'm a first-year student at *mumblemumble* University. I'm hoping to become a clinical psychologist someday. I've always had a fondness of anthropomorphic animals (stemming from cartoons), and when I discovered this community, I was thrilled to become apart of it! If I had to describe myself in three words, it would be: reserved, stoic and aloof. "You don't seem to portray any of those characteristics, Shorty!" is what you may be thinking. I suppose I'm the opposite when online, har. Anyhoo, let's not become too somber. I look forward to meeting every one of you :) Please let me know if you have any questions! Oh, and happy belated New Year!
Bow down before the one you serve,
you're going to get what you deserve.

Whoooo! Another Feline!
Haha! There are freekishly few felines around here for some reason...

Anyway! Welcome to the forums fellow feline!

You'll fit right in!

A Psychologist? Well.... Nope! My head is OFF LIMITS! Haha!
I always found the way the mind works fairly fascinating... If I didn't like working with my hands, Psychology was somewhere near the top of my list!

Hope you stick around! And.... Ummm... Ignore the scribbled out words there... It doesn't say Sanitarium...(Not the word I'm looking for... Urg! Brain!) Nope...

A psychologist? What's your area of specialty?

I studied general, clinical, and neuro psychology at uni.

Thanks Sonic2k! 'Tis much obliged. Oh boy, I wasn't anticipating people actually replying haha. How does one sincerely answer each message? I shall attempt with an all-inclusive jumbo-message! Us felines need to stick together, eh Adagio. Liking the music terminology. They don't appreciate our kind! Hah, just kidding. Don't worry, I won't try to analyse your brain *evil grin*. I'm the most impractical being when it comes to working with my hands! It does seem that you're well balanced. Grr, superior felines :P I most definitely will!

Thanks Flaxney! -smiles broadly-. Whoa Sev, that's impressive! You'll have to give me some tips. I have no area of specialty, as I'm still a first year :( I'm hoping to go into cognitive neuroscience after getting my masters. Right now it's only wishful thinking *gazes at the stars*

Aha! What if it becomes one huge quote-fest? My favourite tempo is Grave, as it depicts my melancholic soul. I'll attempt to quote in the next message hah. Don't laugh ;~; You can't escape fate! >:D

A quote is most appropriate for here:

"You're not the boss of me, my cat is"

As for both of them at home, I am their subject, they rule over their kingdom. I am just a servant

Oh no no he's not the only one.. you just have to ask some people on the forums about my afrikaans and it's pretty terrible too...

Thanks! Hmm, I'd pretty much be quoting my interests on my profile, but let's see. I enjoy gaming as well as singing. I like reading, philosophizing, sleeping and the occasional social event.

I find it adorable! Not in the condescending way though.

Yeah, I used to do classical singing in high-school. I used to be in choirs as well, but that gradually faded away. I love horror games like the Resident Evil series. Strategy games are pretty much my forte. Anno, StarCraft, Age of Empires etc. MMORPG's are pretty nice too heh.
