Howdy c: I'm tempest. Tempest is my real name (the middle one actually) I've started using it as a username recently because I hate it. I'm hoping this will make me like it more... HOPING.
I love either typing/ writing in all capitals or all lowercase. I also tend to either abbreviate everything or nothing. In real life and occasionally on the web I drag out syllables in words or pronounce them strangely. Just a warning. I'm usually one extreme or the other, usually the other.
I'm bipolar, just putting that out there. If I'm especially depressed or angry I'll probably be more distant than usual (I don't want to upset anyone.) If I'm really happy you'll definately know. I'm also a total introvert and overly obsessive about how people perceive me even though I know most people don't care. I tend to be/ try to be more positive than not. I've been told I'm very blunt. My astrological sign is a Cancer. I think astrology is cool, I know more about it than most people. The Myers-Briggs personality scale says I'm an INFJ which makes up about 1% of the population or so I've read. Psychology is really interesting and so are mental illnesses. PEOPLE interest me. Beautiful people, things, words, etc. are things I like to 'collect'. When I say beautiful people I mean personality wise and opinion wise not physically.
I love sun showers, flowers, pens, beauty, deer, simplicity, Late Night with Jimmy Fallon, and It's Always Sunny In Philedelphia amongst other things. I dislike failure, anger, and negativity (though I can be very negative at times.) Also I say howdy a lot, it's my favorite greeting. I love my handwriting so much that I write almost everything I hear. I'm usually an unorganized mess.
I'm an artist. I dabble mostly in watercolors, photography, and do the occasional wire sculpture. Though for the most part I'll do anything that is mix media. I'm not fond of collagraphs or print-making but casting interests me. I prefer sad art, movies, books, and songs. I hope to go to the Chicago Institue of Art for college. I have almost no experience in digital art besides photography.
I've been roleplaying on and off for five-ish years. Most of those years were made up with one liners and relatively bad names like Velvet-tears. I started out a traditionalist but the names rarely fit my cats. For example I'd have a cat named Swallowtail who was a ginger tabby and good at hunting. Then I moved to those nonsense names. Then I relied on Ebonycrow's naming guide for a while. Now I use a mixture third-style and traditionalism when it comes to names. Also I'm a fan of Grey's blog that starts with an A ( I'm not going to attempt to spell it right now.) and a member of FoF.
I read the books until the first book of the fourth arc I think. Not because they were good but more or less because I wanted to finish what I started. They're not very good, honestly I think at this point they're just making the books because they can and there isn't much thought put into them anymore (if there was ever.) Swiftpaw is probably my favorite character ever, he gotten killed by dogs in the first arc. Only because at the peak of my fandom I read Secrets of the Clans and there was a story about him in there. Inside that story was a sentence I thought was beautiful. As far as I'm concerned that sentence is better than all the books Erin Hunter has wrote. They should be proud of that sentence.
I'm done. Sorry I type too muuuuccchhhhh. I'm just a rambler. Also i'll probably to more sulking than posting. Also I probably meant to say a lot more and just forgot to. I do that sometimes.

Heyyy Tempest ;P Nice to see ya again. I always read your bio and remember why I like you. Psychology is awesome. I study it at uni I'm an ENFP according to Myers-Briggs, and it's scarily accurate. Anyway, it'll be nice to see you round here also :3 Have a good time.

There appears to be a party up in this place. Stellar.
Hello, Tempest. I'm Grey. You could probably guess that anyway, so whatever.
I messed around with wire-sculptures a bit for my last session in Visual Art. It was a good deal of fun but I'm dead awful at it, to be honest with you. It's cool you like your handwriting; most people I know don't seem to like theirs too much, or mine either for that matter, ehehehehe. Fair enough, though, as mine's impossible to read.
I'm pretty curious about this sentence as well, so if it ever strikes your fancy, let us know. I'd like to think that there's still some hope left for Erin Hunter.
It's pretty brilliant that we have so many people interested in psychology on Fourtrees Resurrected already. I've never studied it properly, but I spend most of my life in that section of the library and it's always found it to be a fascinating subject. Hopefully we'll get the chance to talk about it at some point.
When it comes to Myers-Briggs, I'm an INTJ personality. As Rolo said, "scarily accurate". Terrifyingly accurate, really. Even the slightly less positive sections are bang-on-target, ehehehehe.

Welcome to Fourtrees, Tempest. You must share this sentence with us.
It really needs a nickname. It helps to remember it if you remember how it sounds, though.
Not at all. Long posts can be fun to read sometimes; nobody's going to police you on that, ehehehe.

Hi Tempest, I'm Heiter c:
It's really cool that so many people around here are interested in psychology and mental disorders. I'm rather young to be thinking about it yet, but I'm planning to one day go into psychiatry. Might be a bit of a long shot, haha.
It's also interesting how many of us around here like Grey's blog. That's actually how I found Fourtrees Resurrected.
I agree with you about the quality of the books. They really just bored me incessantly from the third series onward.
I'm an INFP, by the way.
Anyway, welcome to Fourtrees Resurrected c:

I am policing this. Paws off my laugh, miss.
I'm working on it. I like Ailuronymy, though...

Hello there tempest! I am in love with your name, honestly. I don't even know why. Ooh yes, Myers-Briggs types, do love those. I myself am an INTP. Seems to be a lot of NTs and NFs around here, which actually makes quite a lot of sense because *shuts up before I start ranting*. It's really cool that so many people around here are interested in psychology and mental disorders. I'm rather young to be thinking about it yet, but I'm planning to one day go into psychiatry. Might be a bit of a long shot, haha. It's also interesting how many of us around here like Grey's blog. That's actually how I found Fourtrees Resurrected. I found it through Ailuronymy as well. And yes, yesyesyes. I just love our little community. Nice to see people I can really relate to. c:

Aww guys. I wish I could share that sentence but I've recently given away all of the bad literature in my library. If I ever happen to stumble across it I'll share it with you. Honestly the sentence was only decent it was just the idea behind the sentence. It actually made me feel something, and making their readers connect with their writing is an area that Erin Hunter lacks in. Also I LOVE how everyone shared their Myers-Briggs info with meeeee. " It's cool you like your handwriting; most people I know don't seem to like theirs too much, or mine either for that matter, ehehehehe. Fair enough, though, as mine's impossible to read." - Grey Hahaha, my handwriting is horrendous or so I've been told. It's just unnecessaryily loopy and curvy, so all my letters mush together. I think it's pretty and even if it isn't it has more personality than most people's handwriting. "Not at all. Long posts can be fun to read sometimes; nobody's going to police you on that, ehehehe." - Ten I've been told. My apologizing is more force of habit than anything. In real life I talk impossibly fast and will ramble on for minutes at a time only to realize they didn't understand a thing I said. It's frustrating really. "Hello there tempest! I am in love with your name, honestly. I don't even know why." - Cobalt Thanks you're a doll. It's hit or miss with most people.
