Hello everyone! Call me Aimee, i'm a 17-year-old girl living in Arkansas, USA. My real name is actually spelled Amy, but I like the other spelling better. ;3 I've gone by few nicknames on the internet, mostly Cat, then Lime, and more recently Aimee.
I've been using virtual pet sites almost as soon as I could work a mouse - I had to get my big sister to help me set up my accounts and stuff! I was introduced to them when a friend made me make a Neopets account. Embarrassing enough, I still play there today. But I feel like I owe Neo a lot - it's what got me into drawing and first introduced me to the concept of having characters.
In real life, i'm home schooled, always have been. My family has lots of animals, four of which are officially mine: Dusti, a little gray tabby girl who's my best friend; Mindy, a Chihuahua puppy who i've had for a week and totally love (and who's taking up a ton of my time - no regrets! xD); Rose, a very old ferret who i've had for years; and Ofelia, my loving little Rat.
My favorite hobbies are reading, drawing, and I enjoy playing video games. Who doesn't? xD Minecraft and Super Smash Bros. Brawl are my current favorites.
I can't really think of anything else to add, except that i'm glad I got to join and I can't wait to become a contributing member~!

We're all so very glad to have a newbie I'm sure! XD *confetti and streamers* I've not been on Neopets in a while, I never quite "made it", but I love Minecraft and video games :')
Welcome, welcome and I can't wait to see you adopting and selling! ^____^ <3

Welcome aboard! Neopets was my first petsite too, been a bit since I checked up on my old critters, but it always makes me nostalgic when people talk about it. Sounds like you have quite a menagerie started in real life. xD That must be a lot of fun, hehe. I think Ofelia is a really pretty name- what does she look like?

Willow - Thanks! x3 I sort of have my Neopets phases, i'll get back into it and then take a break for a while, then get back into it and repeat. 'xD Ugh, I do love Minecraft, but I play like a total wimp. I can hardly work myself up to enter those dark caves, and Endermen scare me to death. D: Probably not the best game for me LOL, but I can't seem to stop. :I Oh my gosh there was an Enderman in my house a while back, I instantly quit and was like "yep never gonna load that game again." But eventually I did and ran out the door. 'xD DragonSpeaker - Yeah, it seems like a lot of artists got started on Neo. Yeah, I couldn't live without animals around. ;u; I also forgot to mention that I have like 193,211,412 chickens I take care of LOL. xD Ofelia is white with a dark brown hood that covers her shoulders, and a thick stripe from that down her back. She's also got another stripe coming off of the dorsal stripe which goes half-way down her side, which I think is cool. :3 She's so sweet, and loves to give licks. xD

Chickens! That's pretty cool, I think chickens are actually pretty companionable as long as they're not scared. xD Your little gal sounds really cute too, hehe. My sister really wanted a rat for a while, so I had done some research about what sort to get and stuff. I may get one once I have my own place since they make such good pets.

Hello and welcome, Aimee! c: I had started out on Neo, too! Games, yes. I love gaming. Maybe a little too much, haha. Dishonored is my current favourite. Home schooled sounds so cool. ;o; You get to choose when you want to wake up and do work. Do you get to study whatever you want, too? o-o
