Useless Facts: Here!

Religious preference: Quite the mix. I was raised having strong Catholic grandparents, went to a Baptist church camp, was a Buddhist dancer for a weekend, and was almost in a Wiccan coven. I like to mix and match my beliefs, but for the most part, it plays no part in my life. I've always had a strong interest in the Greek pantheon of Gods, and lately, the Queen of the Fey.

Resolution for 2005: drop ten dress sizes for Cutie Honey costume. And aquire twice as much yaoi as I did this year.

Favorite anime: Rurouni Kenshin, Naruto, Full Metal Alchemist, Hana Yori Dango, Kamikaze Kaitou Jeanne

Pets: My old kitty Loopy (I've had her since I was in kindergarten!)

Piercings: Just four, two in each ear. They close over until I go to con and wear Miroku, and then it's the painful experience of peircing all over again!

Drink of choice: Dr. Pepper (it flows through me veins!)

Most disturbing trait: The way I blatantly talk about sex. Or maybe the way I glomp on the people. Or when I bite them. . . hmmm. . . I dunno. . . biting my nails? Definitely screeching in gibberish and pouncing on people!

Musical I can most relate to: Phantom of the Opera, or Evita.

What's in Ritsuko's Head??


Okay, lets get down to the straight facts. I recently went to community college, and was very active in the drama department. Here are all the plays I've ever been in. Recently I got accepted to WSU, and my sister wants me to move down to Vegas! What to do? I've also gotten a wierd upstart idea to move to the city, have a shitty day job, and try my hand in comedy clubs. Someday, I could be on SNL.

Over the past couple years, I've started my own production company, titled Henna Onna. Go fig! So far, I've done a Jerry Springer spoof, a trailer for Hairspray for a class, a live action spoof of Ranma 1/2 vs. The Blair Witch Project, and the Death of Testicles. There are about four more titles I'm deliberating on doing at this point in time. The Henna Onna page is up, and if you'd like, you can buy some of my crap!! WAI! WAI! Soon, my friend Lori and I will start filming a glooooorious Star Wars spoof, and hopefully, a bigger group of people will film a horror movie in the works!

I really don't like most of my past, and definitely think I'm in a better place, but I'm afraid to make the same mistakes twice. Like, step in goat poop or something. . . I miss some people I never talk to anymore since my graduation, and it really tears at my heart sometimes. . . I hope that someday, people can talk to me again without taking sides or treating me like shit. . . or not inviting me to their weddings. . . Remember kids! When you think you're in love, you're probably just in love with the idea of being in love. I should know. Me and that fucker Romeo. . .

I like to consider myself an otaku, mostly cause 1. I love anime, and 2. I don't know squat about Japanese culture on the other hand (other than anime), and it shows. When I go to the international district, I come back with only anime stuff. (and Yogloo. hee hee) Considering that I've really fucked up at Japanese 2, I might wait awhile before digesting and more of the like, maybe doing it again next year at the same college. (Sensei will be soooo thrilled). I do plan to live there (Japan) at least once in my life though, in hopes of publishing some manga & doujinshi! I've got a few small one page strips up on the Arty Page already. I think alot of what I do at first though, especially on this page, is going to be based on my life thus far. There's alot of humorous and depressing facts!!!

At this point, I really don't know what I want to do with my life. Laura and I have been talking about just travelling the country and stopping every so often to work. Kinda like Kintaro Oe. But we're girls.

And not as horny.

Well, maybe as horny.

OKAY! We are as horny. . . .

But I think for now, my real plans are to move to Vegas, work behind the scenes of a lewd comedy show, until I can get my start as a female Elvis impersonator.

Hope you enjoyed this fireside chat.

Hugs and Assgrabs, Ritsuko

Let's go home! Second star to the right and straight on til morning!
