So here I am, tasked with the impossible mission of introducing myself to you guys. Where should I begin?

Hello, I'm an 18-year-old Muslim girl who loves books.

Ugh no. Too boring. Let me try again.

Hey everyone! You're probably here because of my comments. I'm famous, I know. *flips hijab*

Eww no. This cringey mess is already in my profile bio. New ideas Tammy, new ideas.

That is what I've been dealing with for the past hour. I run a straight line through all my horrible attempts at an introduction and decide, screw it. Someone as "fabuloso" as me doesn't need an introduction anyway. The introduction needs me.

SHENANIGANS

My personality is not always everyone's cup of tea. If you don't know me well, then you'll probably think I'm rude af. But that's just my absolutely and completely dry sarcasm - which no one ever gets. Ok, maybe one or two people get it. However, it is usually more evident when I'm around people I'm comfortable with. At first glance, I am the kindest and shiest gem you will find. But the more you get to know me, the more you unravel my deepest, darkest layers. All filled with sarcasm, of course. Nothing else matters.

My favourite word is "Indeed". It is just the perfect balance between a sarcastic remark and an emphatic, affirmative reply that adds that extra pizazz to a statement. It's basically a polite word that just subtly flows towards the receiver, carrying with it a simple message: interpret me any way you like and I shall oblige. It fits into all situations.

For instance, someone asks, "Are you okay?"

"Indeed."

"Do you like me?"

"Indeed."

"Do you like the new story I published?"

"Indeed."

"Indeed?"

"Indeed."

There are many more examples, and I can write a whole dissertation on this word alone, but I'll spare you the boredom.

I can be very professional at times. My use of language varies with whom I am speaking to and the situation I am in. Being an administrator and content creator for the Fandom wikis I am part of brings out that side of me. I would say I am a very organised and diligent person when I actually put in some effort. But I don't usually do so; I like to procrastinate. *shrugs nonchalantly*

I have been a member of the Wattpad community for a long time. I'm talking 6 years now (since 2013). Yeah, I know. I'm an old soul. You're probably wondering how old I was when I joined Wattpad. Erm..well... 👀 Shhh we don't want Wattpad to know that now, do we?

I have acquired several nicknames during my time online. Some of them being: Tam Tam, Tamalam, Punny Bunny, Granpa Ken with Robophobia, Ken Doll, Tiri the Siri, etc. Utterly disgraceful, am I right? People need to stop abusing my name. *shakes head*

EDUCATION

I just graduated IB (International Baccalaureate, for you fools out there who don't know the abbreviated form). It's my greatest achievement so far, because that programme is one of the most — no IS the most — rigorous educational program out there.

FUTURE AMBITIONS

What do I plan to do now, you wonder? I am currently taking a gap year. After that, well, medicine is what I'm currently planning on undertaking. I've always been a keen learner of Biology and Chemistry. I decided long ago that my ambition was to become a paediatrician. I love working with kids because they are such adorable little Oompa Loompas, and I love those subjects above, so why not combine the two? If this plan fails, there's always a backup plan ready. I want to study biochemistry or something science-related.

My hobbies include playing Asphalt 9, developing my different wikis on Fandom, listening to epic pop, watching amazing fan edit videos of Marvel movies, and reading awesome books on Wattpad.

I would say I'm mostly a reader at the moment. I used to write a little before, but I deleted my old stories because they were honestly cringey. I have improved my writing skills since then, but as I was really busy with studying over the past few months, there haven't been any new books published. None, except the contest entry I wrote for TimberWoolf's August Whodunit Mystery.

A new interest I have developed though is graphics designing. I am an avid designer who loves curating different designs. It was only two weeks ago when I decided to pursue the realm of graphic designing and expand my non-existent knowledge on the different tools used to create such epic covers as those I've come across on Wattpad.

Since then, I have created some covers for friends. I am definitely a curious person. When something piques my interest, I'm persistent in learning about the mechanisms behind it until I finally master it. Or at least until I'm able to not cringe at my final product. Request covers from the Graphics Book, and I shall accept them with open arms!

Check out my profile, if you want: There will definitely be more cringey stuff there. You have been warned :P

May we meet again,

Tammy
