        OK, I know it's a little late (I was in holidays for a week), but I
want to bite too:

me:
Male
23
Gay (finally found The One, thanks to that trainee in Eindhoven :) )
Left-handed (it took me years before I was able to use my right hand to
other things than simply carrying objects)
No goatee, not even enough facial hair to shave everyday, but enough to
be annoying
Dark blond hair that gets already rare :(, becomes lighter when sunny
(used to be very light blond when younger), green eyes that tend to be
blue depending on the light
Agnostic with mystical/pantheistic/personal tendencies, like Eric
Scientific studies, toying with the idea of making a Ph.D in Material
Physics (but I still have one year and a half before starting it)
Like roleplaying games, but don't play often
Read and write fantasy, read sci-fi too, love Lovecraft, Star Trek and
Star Wars as well as Asimov and a big deal of Philip K. Dick
Love all kinds of languages, preferably exotic ones compared to my
native French, currently learning Dutch and still learning Japanese
Esperantist, more because I like the language than because of the IAL
dream that I find impossible and unworthy.
