Age: 36

Are you an organ donor? Why or why not?: Yes, because I checked that button when I was 16 without really thinking about it, and honestly I'm not using it anymore someone else may as well.
If you had a disease that meant that you might have to consider an organ transplant on down the line, would you consider one? Why or why not?: Yes, because I want to live as long as I can.

Other sites you use: Dreamwidth, facebook, habitica. I think that's about it. I am not an internet power user.

I am OBSESSED with my garden haha. I only have a balcony so everything is in pots but I love it. I'm from Australia, Sydney to be precise. Sometimes I only have time to post about once a week but lately it's been a bit more than that. I'd like to add you if you're cool with it! :)

We seem to have a bit in common. Friends?

I'm doing Camp NaNo right now so I post slightly less than usual, but I do normally try for more than once a week.

Name/alias: Amy
Age: 41

Are you an organ donor? Why or why not?: Yes. If my organs aren't eligible for transplant, I'd like to donate them for research.
If you had a disease that meant that you might have to consider an organ transplant on down the line, would you consider one? Why or why not?: Sure, but I'm holding out hope for tissue engineered organs someday :)

Other sites you use: FB, Twitter
What you most frequently write about: My kid (2), work, and my spouse.

Name/alias: Melissa
Age: 33- will be 34 end of May!!
Location: Upstate NY
Job/field of study/what you do: Unemployed due to disability from a car accident that almost killed me (I was not responsible either, thankful to the higher power I call God for sparing me) I studied History and Poli Sci in college so when I am much more healed I hope to persue something long those lines (although I have lost my love for Politics)

Are you an organ donor? Why or why not?: I am, I made this decision because my cousin (whom just turned 21- and was given 5 years to live at age 4) has received not one but TWO double lung transplants and she is a wonderful young woman.
If you had a disease that meant that you might have to consider an organ transplant on down the line, would you consider one? Why or why not?: Well I've already received blood resulting from my accident- if I needed something I would be very thankful and accepting of such ♥ I'm obviously still here for a reason.

Dude totally forgot to mention READING! which is a huge part of my life as of late ♥

Edit: and if you cannot tell from my Emilia Clarke icon- I am Game of Thrones obsessive. And am finally finishing the Vampire Diaries and will move on to the Originals when I do such. I also love the new Macguyver very much so.

Name/alias: Jen
Age: 32
Location: Recently moved from bustling NYC to the suburbs of NJ.
Job/field of study/what you do: I'm an animator for TV turned SAHM. I've worked on stuff for Nick Jr, MTV, HBO, Adult Swim, and a few other places. I am mostly concentrating on being a mom to my 2 year old kid and a baby oven to #2 due at the end of August! I'm currently taking on some freelance work and commuting into NYC sometimes to work on work or personal projects.

Are you an organ donor? Why or why not?: Yes! Even though I feel squeamish about being dissected postmortem, I figure that if I'm not using my organs anymore, why not have it go to someone who could desperately use it.

If you had a disease that meant that you might have to consider an organ transplant on down the line, would you consider one? Why or why not?: Yes! I would like to live too.

What you most frequently write about: I write about my life. It's boring sometimes and possibly repetitive, but I am meticulous with my journaling. I write about motherhood, my family and ( ... )

I'm also a mom of two (two girls aged 7 & 3), and I mostly post about my life (although there are fandom-y posts every now and then). Friends?

Name/alias: Sarah
Age: Almost 25
Location: Wisconsin, USA
Job/field of study/what you do: I work in retail right now, but I just graduated with a degree in business admin, so hopefully I'll find something more structured soon.

Are you an organ donor? Why or why not?: I'm not, but it's because I was 16 at the time and the concept freaked me out. I've come around to the idea now, and I think it would be good to donate my body to science in some capacity.

If you had a disease that meant that you might have to consider an organ transplant on down the line, would you consider one? Why or why not?: I guess it depends on the situation and my age? If I knew it wouldn't help long-term or that it would require multiple medical procedures, or if I was super old and felt content with my life, I wouldn't.

What you most frequently write about: My daily life, which typically includes my job; spending time with my family, my boyfriend, and his family; roommate woes; trying to make friends in a new city; occasionally whatever I'm reading, ( ... )
