Get to Know Your Geeks: White Mage
Amy Darigol, better known as White Mage, is the resident book worm and MMO player for The Weekly Geek. Get to know her better with this little question and answer session.
When did you first discover you were a geek?
It was more of a slow realization that all my favorite activities, books, computers, sci-fi/fantasy tv/movies, board/card/tabletop/video games, were all considered geeky.
What is the one video game you keep coming back to no matter how many times you've played it?
There are actually four I switch between: Final Fantasy Tactics, Azure Dreams, Wild Arms, and Tetris.
What is your day job?
Prior to my current Homemaker status I was a Web Developer.
If you were stranded on an island with a dvd player and could only bring ONE dvd or dvd set, what would you bring?
XENA!
Put your music on shuffle and hit play. What comes up?
Nobuo Uematsu - To the End of the Abyss
How long have you been with the weekly geek, and what is your favorite thing you have done so far for the site?
I joined near the end of its original run as a college radio show which I believe was about 4 years ago. I've really enjoyed sharing my opinions on the books I've read.
What blogs do you regularly read?
My friend's.
Do you have any non-geek related hobbies?
Is cross-stitch geeky? I used to write and draw a little too. Oh, and I love singing with my CDs when no one else is around.
What was the worst video game you have ever played?
The Little Mermaid for the original NES. It was the very first non-used game I ever bought with my own money, I was 8 or so, and I was never able to get beyond the 2nd level. Talk about disappointment! You'd think they would have made the game playable for the movie's target audience!
What say you?!
