shapkaa Posted May 27, 2014 Share Posted May 27, 2014 I was browsing this site today and realized that I wanted someplace other than neo to chat about it, so hello everybody! My name is Cass and I'm 19 years old. I'm neo_cant_pwn_cass on neopets, as I aptly named my second account in middle school. Oh, how I wish I used better judgement...lol. My sides are much more nicely named - mechta (dream in Russian), shapkaa (the username I tend to use elsewhere online), kolkhoznik, and razrushytel_mirov ("destroyer of worlds" in Russian). Wow, I just realized all of those are Russian - so if you couldn't tell already, I'm near-fluent in Russian. I'm currently studying Japanese as well. I love my guild on neo so much and it's what got me back into playing after I came home from living abroad in 2012 - it's called Zapping Your Dream Pets and the members all use their lab rays to grant people's dream pet wishes. It's amazing and so much fun to be in! My favorite neopet is the Bori, and I collect plushies although I've been hoarding my NP too much to pay to upgrade my gallery LOL I think I'm going to save up for lab maps on my other accounts so I can be more contributing to my guild. I also collect stamps. I am working on feeding my Lutari gourmet foods and reading my Xwee (she was my dream pet, but I saved up to paint her!) as many books as possible. I'm a full time student who hasn't delegated much time to designing layouts on neo, but I plan to revamp my pet page, UL, and shop/galley layouts over the summer, along with my personal website.. Aside from neo, I like playing other video games. I also like making video games; I'm amateur at that though. I also enjoy graphic design, languages, travel...lots of things actually.. Well, it's nice to meet you all and I hope to see you around chatting~! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grenthine Posted May 27, 2014 Share Posted May 27, 2014 Hello, Cass. It's nice to meet you! Welcome to TDNF! I hear you on the username regret thing. It would be so nice to be able to rename accounts... /daydream ;) shapkaa 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hert123 Posted May 27, 2014 Share Posted May 27, 2014 Hi Cass! Nice introduction! If I may ask, where are you from? I haven't seen anybody before who's fluent in Russian and learning Japanese! What kind of games of you make? :) I have been thinking about joining ZYDP but so far I have the lab map for two weeks now and might consider it again.

Azurablue Posted May 27, 2014 Share Posted May 27, 2014 Welcome to the Forums! (Or should I say, konnichiwa shapkaa-san? *bow*) (Don't get excited - that was almost every word I know of Japanese. *lol*) I hope you'll enjoy your stay here and meet lots of new friends. Everyone here is super friendly and I'm sure you'll like it here. :laughingsmiley: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shapkaa Posted May 27, 2014 Author Share Posted May 27, 2014 Grenthine, Hert123, nice to meet you guys! As for username regret, I feel like one of the only NC things I would jump at is an opportunity to rename my main LOL And Hert123, I'm from the USA - I was born and raised in Pennsylvania and I moved to Los Angeles for college. I've studied Russian for 6 years now, and Japanese is a recent endeavor and also my third language. I hope to learn as many as possible :) I also lived in Kazan, Russia for 2 months on a gov't scholarship in 2012. I'm studying Linguistics and Computer Science in college right now, so...there's my two main loves lol And my games are really amateur and I haven't published anything yet as playable, but I did do most of the art for a game at the global game jam this year - it's called "Operation Charlie" and it's a short adventure game. http://globalgamejam.org/2014/games/directors-cut-operation-charlie if you're interested haha My boyfriend's made much more working games than I have, but he also has more free time to focus on that sort of thing. I plan to brush up more on game development over the summer...lots of summer plans for self-learning, but will i do them?! Only time will tell how much I am able to focus lol And I forgot to mention prior to this edit - ZYDP is amazing <3 I love everyone there; everyone is so nice and we have a lot of fun! I really recommend it. It totally brings the neo experience to a whole new level. Please let me know if you join so I know to look for you in the chat! Azurablue - haha, very funny. Although I currently only know a few more than that o_o I'm working my way through the basic kana before I delve deeper into the grammar and whatnot. I'm already liking it! Surprisingly, I was scrolling thru other intro threads and I noticed a NF of mine who co-runs our guild, so I got really excited haha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shelley Posted May 27, 2014 Share Posted May 27, 2014 ZYDP is the reason I was able to get my beloved faerie lenny!! Such a great guild, wonderful people :) I would love to be able to speak fluently in another language. I wish I had continued Spanish after high school. shapkaa 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shapkaa Posted May 27, 2014 Author Share Posted May 27, 2014 ShelleyJoy - I'm so glad to hear you're happy C: We love what we do at ZYDP! Also, I love your username :D haha it gave me a good chuckle And as long as you think you might have free time, it's not too hard to pick a language up if you love it :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
