The Protagonist
This is the Queen of England. Erm... no just kidding, it's me.The story about the magical me begins one very early new years day fifteen years ago. I was born and they named me Erika [é-ree-kah]. Today I live in the capital of Sweden, Stockholm. Like most 15-year-olds I attend school, and currently I'm in the 8th grade. I like school, I like learning and meeting my friends. I just don't like it when school takes up too much of my spare time, which it unfortunately does pretty often. Major assignments that have to be done, a test or two a week... but I can handle it and still have some time left for other things, it's something you learn how to do after a while. I do well in school, and I'm more than happy with my grades.

I am a dreamer, and I read a lot. When I say a lot, I really mean a lot. It's no coincidence my friends call me "Hermione" sometimes. I read most types of books, but my favorites are fantasy, science fiction and adventure novels. Actually I read so much that by now my bookshelves are about to explode due to the great amount of books I have there, well I guess I'll have to give away some of the ones that I know I wont ever read again... I just hate throwing away books, I really can't do that. When I grow up and move to my own flat or house I will probably have more books in my bathroom than most people have in their shelves.

I am 1,62 meters (that's about 5 feet 4, I think) short, which is the perfect height if you like bumping your forehead into the cupboard-door every time you walk into the kitchen. I have brown, curly (bushy in the morning) hair and blue eyes. Well, I guess you can see for yourself what I look like if you just take a look at that picture up there, which features me early in the morning.

I am a creative person who likes to write and draw. I write all sorts of things but mainly ramblings in my diary and short stories about every day life, or other beautiful things that life brings. Maybe someday I'll publish some of these short stories at the internet, but for now I usually write in Swedish and they're not often complete stories, just ideas of a moment... if that makes sense to anyone but myself. My drawings and sketches are not as personal as my writing, and others than myself are able to appreciate them. You can look at some of my creations in my artwork section.

Another of my huge interests is movies. I visit the movie theater as often as I can, as often as my wallet lets me and as often there is something I want to see. But even though it is correct that movies are always best at the movie theater, watching movies at home is fine too. My favorite movie of all time is probably Dead Poets Society. My top ten of favorite movies however tend to change very often.

Of course I, like most people, have some kind of music taste. To make it easy for myself I'll say that I'm an all-eater when it comes to music but mainly I listen to British, Swedish and American indie rock and punk. If you are more interested in what I listen to, visit my last.fm.

I started web designing not very long ago, I knew some HTML, like background color and how to make the text scroll, which is the most annoying thing ever, from earlier but I started in real a little less than a year ago. Since then I am dead keen.
