1. How did we meet?
Er, I was a fan of OFUM years ago, and rediscovered your LJ just last year.
2. What's your philosophy on life?
Life's too complicated for one rule, so see how things go, try everything and if it works out badly, put it down to experience and move on.

4. What was your dream growing up?
To be able to fly =)

Don't think so.
17. Would you go on a blind date if I set you up?
...probably. You're not vicious enough to set up something really cruel, and I'm looking.

Other people.

3. What talent do you wish you had? I wish I could just do what I want and not freak out.
4. Favorite place? Hmm... That one is tough. Probably somewhere in Oregon because I love Oregon and if I'm there it means I'm probably with my mom.
5. Favorite vegetable? Tomato
6. What was the last book you read? I don't know if you count manga so I'll list both. I am currently reading a book called The Gun Seller by Hugh Laurie (freaking HILARIOUS by the way) and I just read a manga about two gay police detectives called Fake by Sanami Matoh.
7. Are you Dirty or Clean? My room is dirty but I like to keep everything else clean. I think I'm too lazy to clean my room.
8. Any tattoos and/or piercings? I have two holes in each ear and a tattoo of a crescent moon drawn with a celtic knot on my left upper arm.
9. Worst habit? Not cleaning my room.
HERE COMES THE FUN ...
1. How did we meet? I started reading OFUM then found out you were totally awesome.
2. What's your philosophy on life? I don't know... that's a problem with me. I don't think I've really figured out what I believe yet. I have ideas but they are all jumbled and confusing.
3. Negative or Optimistic? I try to be optimistic but my first reactions are usually sort-of negative.
4. What was your dream growing up? To travel the world.
5. Worst thing to ever happen to you? Too many things to pick from. I'll just say it probably had something to do with when we tried to get away from living with our father and went with our mom and he called the police and she was arrested. Then in court the judge didn't give a shit what we said and automatically sided with our dad.
6. What was your first impression of me? I thought you were very creative and pretty cool, if not just a tiny bit scary (remember I knew you through OFUM).
7. Tell me one weird fact about you: I'm afraid of bathrooms/toilets, mostly public ones. I'm convinced that something horrible is going to happen to me in a restroom.
8. What's your favorite memory of us? Hmm... I have no clue. We don't talk much.
9. Have you ever kept anything from me? Well yeah... I don't really talk to you much.
10. What do you think of me as a person? Well informed, smart, cares for what's actually happening in this world (instead of pretending like everything is great like some people do), and very cool. Can I be like you when I grow up?
11. Do you think I'm sane or insane? I think you are sane, you may think and do things differently from other people but that's not insane.
12. Would you cry for me if I died? I don't know... I don't think so, I don't cry very much. I'd be sad but I didn't even cry very much when a family member died. I just don't cry.
13. Would you be my crime partner or my conscience? I would be your crime partner, definitely.
14. If you could change anything about me, would you? No.
15. How do you fall asleep? VERY VERY late at night. After fighting with my two dogs over how much of the bed I get to keep, watching too much tv, being too hot or too cold, being kept up by the horrible light that's ALWAYS shining in my window, and laying there for about and hour. I don't sleep very much or very well.
16. Ever gotten angry with me? No.
17. Would you go on a blind date if I set you up? Sure, what the hell. I'm too much of a wuss to do it myself.
18. If you had one day to live, what would you do? I would get all of my favorite people together and have a HUGE party. Damn the expenses.
19. A million bucks... what would you do with it? Bail my family out of debt. Use the rest for school and crap I want.
20. What is your worst fear? Self sabotage
21. Favorite thing to do in your spare time? Read. Or maybe sleep, since I don't get much of that normally.
22. Can you sing or dance? Hell no.
23. In one word, how would you describe me? Be honest! Awesome
24. Will you repost this so I can fill it out? No, I have to go pack. I shouldn't have even filled this out. I'm going to Las Vegas in about 5 hours and I don't have anything packed and I have to do laundry.
