ultraviolet9aThis is a meme!
THE RULES:
1. Leave me a comment saying anything random, like your favorite lyric to your current favorite song. Or your favorite kind of sandwich/colour/shoe. Something random. Whatever you like.
2. I respond by asking you five personal questions so I can get to know you better.
3. Update your LJ with the answers to the questions.
4. Include this explanation and offer to ask someone else in the post.

Uhm. This is what happens when I quote Plath onkimonkey7's journal:
The questions:
1)What's the best thing/worst thing about being a teacher?
2) Tell me about your condo/house/aptartment in Unicornia. Who else has a key?
3) What's your best SPN story? Why is it your best? WHat's the one you thought never quite came out right?
4) Voice fetish?
5) Tell me about autumn.
M'kay. I'm done. Play along if you want to, shinies. I'd love to learn more about you.

The answers:
1)What's the best thing/worst thing about being a teacher?
The kids. And the kids. You can't help but love them. You feel you get a connection and make a difference. And there are days when...not. Really. Also? Vacation time is pretty excellent. What is not excellent is the prep time and people not believing how hard prepping and delivering a class is, and thinking you're on permanent vacation and gee being a teacher ain't no real work, not really. Well. Fuck you too.
2) Tell me about your condo/house/aptartment in Unicornia. Who else has a key?
My house in Unicornia is more like a lighthouse really. Kind of like this. Or could be any Victorian house by a sea. Just use your imagination. Decoration inside is a combo of Art Deco and...other eras, I reckon.
Soft colours. Clean colours. Has lots of books and definitely an internet connection. Somewhere there are apple and lemon trees. (People who support the Pie are thrown off the cliff.) I hold the key. I keep it unlocked. Most of the times. Few, very few people actually hold a key. They know (or suspect) who they are. (Those whose name ends in -inchester hold a key by default.) :)
3) What's your best SPN story? Why is it your best? What's the one you thought never quite came out right?
Uhm. Dude, I can't reply to that with certainty. I can't be objective, plus I'll change my mind the whole time depending on the mood. The one I really enjoyed writing cuz the narrator was pure me, was This is a story where. I enjoyed making it so personal and so different and so mind bending. I'm not that...pleased with They're not the only ones that lie. I'm not sure if what I wanted to convey came across.
4) Voice fetish?
Duh. J D Morgan, James Marsters, Viggo Mortensen, Jared Padalecki (not his laughter though), Jensen Ackles (OH that laughter), Roy Dupuis, Daniel Craig, Paul Newman, Gregory Peck, Ewan Mcgregor...uh... There are more. Probably a lot lot more which I'm too ...not very clearminded right now...to think about. Some are even not that handsome but that.voice. is making all the difference in the world. The deeper and huskier the better. When they ohm and uhm and drawl out...oh lord. OH LORD. I almost slept with a (jerk of a) guy just because he had a deep voice (and was talking to me in Russian.) Yeah...remember that awesome film "A fish named Wanda"? Remember Wanda's fetish? I was right there with her. *facepalm*
5) Tell me about autumn.
Comes after summer. *grin*. Makes me blue, because work year starts again and rain starts again. But blue in an autumny kind of way. Spring is depressing, autumn is for sweet melancholy and books under a warm blanket and hot cups of nut flavoured chocolate in a favourite cafe with friends you haven't seen in a while. New beginnings sort of.

Date: 2007-07-10 01:42 pm (UTC)Just about a year ago, I set out on the road,
Seekin' my fame and fortune, lookin' for a pot of gold...
Things got bad, and things got worse, I guess you know the tune...
Oh Lord, stuck in Lodi again...
Rode in on the Greyhound, I'll be walkin' out if I go,
I was just passin' through, must be seven months or more...
Ran out of time and money, looks like they took my friends,
Oh Lord, stuck in Lodi again...

Date: 2007-07-10 10:04 pm (UTC)1. If you could only hear one song for the rest of your life (not continuously, obviously) which one would you choose? Why?
2. Tell me one thing that makes you emo with the acceleration of a Ferrari. It can be a book, a poem, a show, a memory. Anything that, the minute you think of it, makes your eyes all misty.
3. You find yourself on a deserted island. There is only ONE fictional person that can be there with you. Who? Why?
4. What's your natural hair colour? And...assume you're suddenly in a manga verse. What colour would your hair be then? Why?
5. Have you got any siblings? Younger, older? Are you close?

We're fine.
Baby I'm here to stop your crying.
Chase all the ghosts from your head,
I'm stronger than the monster beneath your bed,
Smarter than the tricks played on your heart,
Look at them together then we'll them apart,
Adding up the total of a love that's true,
Multiple life by the power of two.

Date: 2007-07-10 10:10 pm (UTC)2. You find a portal. The portal says "Hey, use me to go to one of your favourite verses." (except SPN, because duh, I know you'd pick that one. :) ) Which verse would you choose? Why?
3. Can you drive? What kind of driver are you?
4. Dean (or Sam or John or your fav Winchester anyway) ask you to prep dinner for him. You have no idea what they like (ok, Dean eats EVERYTHING.) What would you prepare?
5. Tell me one thing you knew you were not supposed to do as a kid but you did anyway.

1. I'd like to know about your favourite pair of shoes.
2. Hmm. Tell me the first show you got hooked on. The first ever. (Which will probably be a cartoon, no? It was a cartoon for me.)
3. Is there something you wear everyday? (am not talking about "Duh, underwear." I mean something that doesn't change, like a watch or a piece of jewellery, hell even a cell phone.) Why are you so attached to it?
4. Any fetishes? (apart from pools. ;) )
5. When I got a boring task (like driving to work) I imagine I'm on a hunt and am driving to meet up the Winchesters or...you know. *cough* Tell me one instant where a favourite TV show has helped you get through a boring/tough task.

onto the jagged rocks below!
your description of autumn is brilliant. it's poetry. *smishes you and drinks nut flavored chocolate with you*
"Oh yeah, he's coming down the road
With his dad's guitar hanging over his shoulder
He takes that Woody Guthrie pose
And says, "I'll buy you cigarettes when you get older."
But that's not what we want anyway
We came out to hear him play
Our own curbside concert, Friday at the Circle K
Hey hey, hey hey, Friday at the Circle K."
(the nields, friday at the circle k)

3. Have you got any phobias?
4. Assume you are to describe yourself as a classic fairytale heroine. (Think Disney, but not just.) Who would you be? Who resembles your life/personality more?

2. Come to think of it, how did you become a zombie, sunshine?
3. Somehow you end up in LOTR. Which race do you belong to? Why?
4. Which causes do you/would you support?
5. Tell me a good dream you had. One that made your whole day brighter after you woke up. One that you still remember and it still makes you feel good after all this time.
