I quite like the idea immortalclara had of the general boards being for us to introduce ourselves, so I figured perhaps we could make a whole thread specially for introductions. I'll start us off.
My name is Leira, I'm still in education as well, and I pride myself on being able to figure things out easily. I'm also quite good with taking apart electronics and putting them back together again and I'm not a stranger to HTML and CSS coding. I understand German (terrible at writing it, though), I'm learning French + Russian and I tried learning Japanese. I'm organised when I want to be, it depends on what I'm supposed to be organising. Most people always assume I'm older. I've just finished three iGCSEs, and I'm going to be doing 5 more GCSEs in September. |

Hey Leira!
Well guys, you can call me Amy. I'm a lover of culture and languages, and would love to travel when older. I'm 16 years old, so am still in education, studying English Literature, Government & Politics, Modern World History, French and Creative Writing. On the side I have a seasonal office job at an engineering firm, where I'm writing from now actually! Never fear I'm not skiving off of work, I just pride myself on being efficient and free time is plentiful here when I tend to get my workload finished before lunch, and you have a computer and desk to yourself!

Hey guys!
I'm Dylan, and I live in England. I'm also 16, currently in between secondary school and 6th form. I'll be studying Biology, Chemistry, Maths, Further Maths and Sociology/RS/Physics(undecided). I have a side interest in languages, especially Slavic and Germanic languages, and I'm currently learning German and Russian. I have a very scientific and creative mind, and being on an extra long holiday, I have plenty of time. I'm quite good at organising people and groups too, and I have an idea of how to navigate HTML/CSS too.

Hey guys
I'm Bianca, I live in Australia and I'm 15, in year 10. I study English, Science, Math Studies (higher level), Psychology and Japanese (which I am almost fluent in) at school and am currently self teaching Russian and studying anything I deem interesting or required. I enjoy physics, and love learning. I have a knack for being able to remember things just about flawlessly but only if I find it interesting or potentially valuable information, and am good at memorizing things. I'm good at anything if I like it. I don't know how I am at leading people, but I'm always open to everything.

Hia guys.
I'm Evelien, living in the Netherlands and 16 years old. I speak Dutch (fluently) English (fluently) and German (except the writing, writing German is hard) I study Sociology combined with Social Studies. Other then Sociology I also study West European History and follow classes for public speaking (which I am pretty good at if I might say so). I aspire to become either journalist or an archaeologist. Sadly I'm pretty bad at math and physics but I'm sure I can make up for that with my social skills.

Hi everyone!
I'm Anna. I live in the US and am currently 16 years old. I'm a junior in high school. I'm studying US History, English, Physics, Algebra 2, Photography and Digital Design. All honors classes. I love writing and reading, and I can fluently write/speak Armenian. I love science, psychology and just helping people. I'm thinking on becoming a neuroscientist or a physicist or maybe a doctor. I'm trying to teach myself German and Algebra 2 to get a head start for this year. Not going so well since I'm the best procrastinator around! That's a little about me I suppose, you all sound so awesome!

Hello to all! My name is Tibbs and I live in the US. I am a Freshman in college with a double major in Neuroscience and German. Learning and education have always been the biggest part of my life and I have had a lot of amazing experiences in the realm of accumulating knowledge. I love to have intellectual discussions and share different ideas. I plan on pursuing a career in medicine- hopefully Neurosurgery- and living in Germany after my undergrad. I am an art hobbyist, so I guess there's my talent. Please, always feel free to talk to me about anything and everything. (:

Hey guys! My name is Hannah, I'm 15 about to turn 16 here in November. I live in the US, about to go into my 2nd year of high school. I'm really good at math, anything that has to be done with a computer just not HTML or CSS code sadly. I really want to major in aerospace engineering, and work for NASA, but any engineering will do. I'm really productive when I need to be. I'm really good at making party playlists, spray painting things, and staying out of trouble. I'm also here if anyone needs to talk about anything.

Yo! My name is Destiny and I am 15 in the US and am still in education. I am learning French and have already learned Gallifreyan. I'm also planning on learning Klingon. I am in NJHS and plan on going into the IB program. I specialize in the study and identification of the flora of the Earth and plan on being a biological scientist. I am both a woman of Science and the Arts. I am good at writing, math, making clothing, and painting, though the last two are hardly of any use. (Unless you want me to make Starfleet uniforms)

Hello I'm Helen
I am 17 years old and I live in the United States. I am still in high school but I could have graduated this year. I have so far finished all honors science classes offered at my school. Though I am much better at math that is why I am going into Advance Placement for Calculus. I am also in the mean time learning computer science and plan to major in it while I am at college.

Hello Everyone! My name is Maggie. I am 21 (going to be 22 in a few days and I feel really old looking at all your ages lol) and I am currently a Senior at Amherst College in Massachusetts (USA), majoring in Geology. I am most likely going to go to Grad school for Paleontology or Museum studies, but I also have an interest in Planetary Geology, specifically Martian Sedimentology. I have also been working on my 3D modeling skills, along with other art stuff like drawing, animation, fashion design, and culinary. I have worked for the US Department of the Interior(so I have a tiny amount of experience trying to work with/around Government Bureaucracy, yay), and have experience with scientific fieldwork, creating educational programs and materials, teaching, graphic design, and planning/leading trips (which sounds easy but it is surprisingly time consuming for large groups of humans). I currently work as an AudioVisual Technician for the college IT Department, as well as being a monitor for our Museum of Natural History (which has (among other things) the world's largest collection of dinosaur footprints and the world's most complete Dryosaurus altus skeleton. If any of you are in the Western Mass area you should come visit! Let me know beforehand and I'll give you a personal tour!) I speak English, a little Irish Gaelic and am working on German. I have my Emergency Medical Tech-Basic certification. In my free time I like to: design (fashion, buildings, other things), build cosplays and go to cons, go on rock hunting expeditions, go exploring, play video games, build stuff in Minecraft and StarMade(which is basically Minecraft in space), watch tv shows, craft, travel, read, sing, mess with Blender (which is free by the way, if you want a REALLY GOOD 3D modeling program), take care of my NationState, Tumblr, work on my sfx/trauma/cosplay/film makeup art skills, do leader stuff for the Anime Club, and lots of other stuff. To be perfectly honest, this whole idea is super exciting. The trickiest part of this is the funding, which I honestly have no idea how that would happen. In the meantime I would be perfectly happy to start a Science Division thread to start pulling together research and pulling in current or future scientists. Also, if anyone here needs any help or questions about college/science careers/etc. Please shoot me a message and I would be happy to help in any way I can! |

Hello! I am Megan from Austin, Texas. I'm 21 and currently in community college with the intent of transferring to a university to major in anthropology with a focus on archaeology. I have a background in biology as it was my previous major. I will likely try to go into biological archaeology because of this. I also have an interest in linguistics speaking English fluently, a working knowledge of Spanish and am currently attempting to teach myself to read Mayan. Both of these might make me a valuable asset (hopefully) because I REALLY want in on this project. Also, I have basic first aid background because of my 13 years of Girl Scouts and family in the nursing field so in an emergency I can lend a hand.
Also in extension to the Girl Scouts experience, I have no problem volunteering and things to that end. I can definitely help out in any way that is needed and can help organize projects or events in my area. Basically I can go wherever I can be most needed.

Hello!
My Name's Tasha. I'm 19 and live in England. I currently have my own Equestrian yard and business and run that solely on my own and I am also a dab hand with a camera - having my own photography label also. I have a keen passion for science; having studied forensic science during school, I also love anything medical - strange I know. I was also a Local leader last year for the 2012 Olympics. As part of that, I had to organise the event for the torch relay which ended up being pretty awesome. Erm.. haha i dont really know what else to say So yeah, that's me!

Hi everyone,
My name is Stephanie. I'm 20 and working at Gulfstream Aerospace in the US. I'd love to work at NASA a an engineer for the shuttles. Hopefully, we'll have some effect and encourage people to look to the stars and support their space exploration programs.
I hope we see each other aboard a vessel called the Enterprise.
