Nora - back from the Dublin meet!

Hello everyone!

Welcome to Nora's space. I am a science student in my second year at Trinity College Dublin, where I'm studying chemistry and biology. I like history, nature, and languages (mainly English, Russian, and Spanish). I'm an economics and finance junkie, which means I know fairly little about it but love to listen and read. I'm based in Ireland, but grew up mainly in the US.

I play the dijeridu, read fantasy novels¹, poetry, or non-fiction, watch films, listen to jazz², and go on excursions with the Dublin Naturalists' Field Club. Sometimes I even get around to spinning yarn.

I am the Muse of Talking to Oneself. Now you know what that mumbling noise in the background was.. You can visit the Musehome here.

I'm also the Keeper of L-Space and Small Dictionaries. Click here for a rough definition of L-Space.

I use the Guide ML Clinic and Smiley pages a lot, and can often be found hanging out at The Iris Cafe, generally at Shea's Hot Dog Stand. I'm a member of the Living Earth Society and am frequently seen at Lil's Atelier. I'm also a member of the Irish Researchers' Group.
