I've made 31 posts and none of them have been an intro so here I am lol

I've already been talking a certain amount on the forum, so I feel this introduction might not be as warranted as it may have been when I first signed up, but this seems to be a rite of passage for members of this space, so t'is about time I make one of these.
Hi, I'm December Winterwolf. I'm English-Italian, living in England, I'm studying Computer Science at university, and I don't know whether or not I want to give myself the label "furry" because of some of the things the fandom gets up to, but at the same time I enjoy mingling amongst them when they don't delve into those more 18+ topics. I've heard that there's a separate term for completely SFW furry content called "fluffy content", maybe I should look into that. Perhaps there's a fluffy forum out there somewhere.
Speaking of furries, I was walking back from food shopping a couple of weeks ago, and was walking behind 2 furries, which was pretty unexpected to me. I forget the characters' names, but one of them was like a red and black dragon, which was very cool. The two went into a park which I walked past to get back to my dorm, and I saw other furries. It turns out there's a pretty frequent furry meetup either there or in another part of town, which I find very cool. The thought of actually seeing furries in real life, let alone seeing them meet in a group in real life, made me happy.
But anyways, back to the introduction. As for what I like doing, I mostly like drawing, reading, listening to music, and playing videogames. I'll admit I haven't been drawing much at all, but I'm currently (slowly) redesigning some PAW Patrol OCs of mine from 2019, starting with their badges (I'm currently stuck on my engineering pup's one since I'm debating on whether or not to change his uniform colour... I think I probably won't since none of my other pups use brown)!
I mostly like reading fiction books aimed at 12-year-olds, often involving mystery and action - and lots of animals. Some of my favourite books so far are Watership Down, Harry Potter, Sherlock Holmes (I've read up to and including The Final Problem) and Warrior Cats (my judgement may change as I've only read the first 3 books of the first arc, still waiting for the last 3 to arrive). That said, I remember thoroughly enjoying Fermat's Last Theorem, a non-fiction book about the man who proved a 1637 maths problem in 1995.
The videogames I generally play are DS/3DS titles (think Super Mario 3D Land, Nintendogs, Professor Layton, Ace Attorney, Animal Crossing New Leaf and Wild World, Legend of Zelda Ocarina of Time 3DS Version) or Roblox games (mainly Piggy, but I'll sometimes play other games like Warrior Cats Ultimate Edition or Tower of Hell). I also have a Game Boy Advance, which I use to play Donkey Kong Country GBA and Pokemon Red, a PlayStation Vita for Minecraft and Super Meat Boy, and a coral pink Switch Lite for Animal Crossing: New Horizons and Sonic X Shadow Generations!
My music taste is... quite random overall, although I have noticed a trend of preferring music that has a distinct melody over, say, "screamo" death metal or otherwise very "grindy" electronic music. The band whose discography I've heard the most is probably Muse, who released their debut album Showbiz in 1999, and released their most recent album Will Of The People in 2022. My personal favourite albums are their 2001 Origin of Symmetry (has some of the greatest bangers imo) and their 2012 The 2nd Law (overall best soundtrack, again, imo). I've also heard they're releasing a new album sometime next year, which while I'm not entirely sure if it's true, I definitely hope it is!
...I think I've rambled enough, I'll just say that I also like reminiscing about stuff sometimes, and that after revamping my PAW Patrol OCs (or even on top of that) I want to develop my own sort of original story thing based on this cat who was originally a self-insert in some strange world where all the characters of various mediums I enjoyed as a child would come together and interact.
Well, that was wonderful. Good time was had by all, I'm pooped.

Hopefully once I finish it I can power through Ocarina of Time 3DS!
I've actually been holding off on starting Miracle Mask because it's taken me well over a year to actually find a copy of Azran Legacy, but they had one in stock at my local CeX a couple of weeks ago for £28 (about $56.28 AUD according to some converter website, not sure if it's accurate lol), which is a win in my book honestly. I look forward to starting them both once I finish Ocarina of Time 3DS!!
