About
Hey! Name's Myduyen. Spelled as that, said as "Me-yen" or "Me-yeeng," enunciated correctly in Vietnamese (Spelt as My Duyen when receiving mail from Vietnam). Oh, and that's also the kind of Asian I am c: not that anyone cares or anything. (Pic to left is just about recent-ish).
To list the basics, here's what I am, or will be in the future.
As of now, a normal human being, person, girlfriend, friend, Gaiaonline minishop lover and most importantly of all, a Myduen Swell Sundae, either or. Of which, feel free to refer to me as Swell, Sundae, Sweet, Swelly, Sundea, or Myduyen. In the future, let's keep to the safe side and say a nutritionist with a small standard solid background in filming and an awesome wife ;P But let's not forget that I'll probably always be a Gaian all the time.
Now for what I'm like, that depends. I'm a "yes person" to everyone generally, except when it comes to things that are out of my bounds. Yes, that means I'll be your best friend one day, enemy the next. I'm not the friend you go to for when you want to talk out of nowhere, out of the blue. I'm the kind who will be clingy *ahem* hang with you whenever and wherever the winds of change tell me to. Of course, I'll still have connections with just about anyone who wants to be my friend, though I'm perfectly fine where I stand right now when it comes to close friends. One in specific, being this boy shown right below with me.
He's also known as the boyfriend. Such a cool guy he is 8D
Aside from that bit of probable lust and infatuation known as coveted love that's been together for 2 years 7 months now, a little history into me should probably be included, both Gaian and un-Gaian.
Gaian
Joined 2008. Attempts to make profiles and fails. Gets slightly better at it, still needs tons of help today. But let's just say that without Gaia, I would have never seen such programs like Paint.NET and GIMP, and eventually Photoshop today (not all too bad with it, still need help though). However, my minishopping ways in the Minishops forum is where I'm plentiful bound. Yes, I'm a much huger fan of minishop art of all kinds, because it's cute, pretty, and amazing. Profiles do too, though I know I'll never reach where I'd like to be. For now, I'm just happy to be a Swell Sundae. Not on the fact though for having such a supposedly hard to understand media guide, though understandable that people expect it to get done immediato because it's a guide. I make it on my own free time, deal with it.
Real Me
Well, not much to say here. My parents hail originally from Vietnam, making me a first-gen Viet. Not at all weird as it sounds. Just perfectly fine. Don't expect me to speak Vietnamese fluently though, I sound like a dying cat from our country apparently. I can most definitely understand and translate though, that's just second nature. Of which, I have a twin! She's known as Marti-Hiiku. Rarely on, but do say hi to her too c: In my family, I'm the second to last kid, of the five children total. Two elders (one sister, one brother), my twin, my younger sister, and I. Yeah, rather large-small figure according to our relatives, but you can't expect much, now can you?
In real life, aside from the blurb from before I'm a large fan of hair acessories of generally the large, cute or Asian-Oriental, lover of food and designer plushes, checkerboard pattern and best of all, shoppings in general. Hey, I'm a girl after all! But an awesome girl on that note ;)
Feel free to send me a comment or something. Glad to reply back on just about anything (except for the media guide, that will be refrained for now).
What tools did you use to create this profile?
Entirely created in Photoshop CS5, brushes and fonts downloaded from various sources, all listed here.
Hand-coded with the use of the Web Developer Add-On for Firefox, meaning this profile is best viewed in Firefox though Google Chrome and Safari shouldn't have too much trouble. Not all too sure in the Internet Explorer department, though that's fine. It's a dying art of a browser anywho.
Inspiration, reason?
Hmm... Well, I've been feeling lonely as of recently. And just around now I've broken off a friendship with what once was a friend because of a completely stupid fight that could have been avoided. Guess this is a profile made out of anger, though it doesn't look like it. Does it? Let me know. Nicely, please. n_n;
As for the song choice, my sister's the one that intro'ed it to me.
How do you make profiles in general?
... pretty much make a layout and code it, while making extra graphics on the side for it if necessary? It's not all that hard as some might think. Bit by bit, it's one of the most fun things one can learn c:
Do you go on other sites?
Ah! Yesiree I do! Though I don't frequent them as much.
Here's the list, in more to less frequency order.
crysandrea, TinierMe, Soliaonline, Roliana
And then there's the usual
facebook, myspace, youtube and tumblr
