Epic Survey Stolen from Tumblr
I did a super long survey that I found on tumblr. I apologize for any typos >>
1) Put your iTunes on shuffle. Give me the first 6 songs that pop up.
Alice Nine - Velvet- Live from Tokyo Galaxy
Miyavi - Kabuki Danshi
Kuroyume - Noise Low
Buck Tick - Long Distance Call
Bjork - Pluto
Gackt - Storm
2) If you could meet anyone on this earth, who would it be?
I’m supposing they must be living… In all seriousness, there isn’t anyone that I particularly want to meet assuming this question is talking about someone who is famous and who I don’t know. If it just physically, I want to meet Ami and Hika in person. ^^
3) Grab the book nearest to you, turn to page 23, give me line 17.
“There was light in his eyes of one who has conquered sorrow in so far as sorrow is conquerable or worth conquering.” It’s actually a line from a poem by Carl Sandburg whose book of Collected Poems is always next to me it seems. XDD
4) What do you think about most?
Probably Visual Kei. Actually, I am almost certain its visual kei.
5) What does your latest text message from someone else say?
I have no idea since its been forever since I had a cell phone.
6) Do you sleep with ____ or without ______ on?
I sleep without a bra on? I don’t know. Depends on the day.
7) What's your strangest talent?
I am good at imitating people’s voices and behaviors. Apparently, Marlon Brando was too. Points for me XDD
8) Girls.... (finish the sentence); Boys.... (finish the sentence)
Girls are easier to talk to. Boys are burdensome.
9) Ever had a poem or song written about you?
Yes. And it was awkward.
10) When is the last time you played the air guitar?
The other day I was in the car and Led Zeppelin came on the radio and I played air guitar and sang along to the guitar notes. Jimmy Page is the shizzzzz. XDD
11) Do you have any strange phobias?
I hate watching people cut themselves.
12) Ever stuck a foreign object up your nose?
I don’t think so. I can’t remember if I did when I was really small.
13) What's your religion?
I don't have a religion. I suppose I'm an atheist.
14) If you are outside, what are you most likely doing?
Walking.
15) Do you prefer to be behind the camera or in front of it?
In front but I have very limited experience behind a camera. I would like to change that though.
16). Favorite band?
I guess I will have to say it’s the Gazette. But it’s always an eternal struggle between Gazette, Alice Nine and Dir en Grey. Of course, I’m not even considering U2 in the battle.
17) What was the last lie you told?
I told some kid that I hadn’t seen his email that he sent me even though I had only because I didn’t want to seem like I was blowing him off.
18) Do you believe in karma?
No.
19) What does your URL mean?
My LJ name is ambellinger, same with tumblr. It’s my first two initials and my last name. I made it straight forward and simple so that I could remember it.
20) What is your greatest weakness; your greatest strength?
Weakness: Indecision.
Strength: Compassion.
21) Who is your celebrity crush?
Er… I answered this before didn’t I? Hmm today, it’s Ruki only because I just heard Untitled. :P
22) Have you ever gone skinny dipping?
No but I really really want to.
23) How do you vent your anger?
Listen to Dir en Grey or bitch to Danielle.
24) Do you have a collection of anything?
I have a small collection of coins in which I have each of the state quarters. I have a collection of vinyls and I suppose I like to collect books since I own more of those than anything else but I don’t really feel like I’m a collector since I don’t mind reading from the library.
25) Do you prefer talking on the phone or video chatting online?
Phone because the video chat online always messes up >>
26) Are you happy with the person you've become?
Not really.
27) What's a sound you hate; sound you love?
I hate the sound of Jpop Idol girls. I think their high pitch triggers something in my brain that makes me want to hulk up and beat something. It’s kinda like how a dog whimpers when they hear an annoyingly high pitched sound. A sound I love is the sound of a nice, beautiful deep voice. That doesn’t mean though that I don’t like high voices. It all depends on how much the person singing can actually control their voice. But I definitely prefer deeper voices and sounds in general.
28) What's your biggest "what if"?
What if Ruki was the guest vocalist on Dir en Grey’s future over the hill version of Glay’s “Life is Beautiful” XDDD
29) Do you believe in ghosts? How about aliens?
I kinda believe in ghosts-just a little. But I don’t believe in aliens. At least, I don’t care to think so.
30) Stick your right arm out; what do you touch first? Do the same with your left arm.
Right, the tip of a glass. Left, a deck of cards.
31) Smell the air. What do you smell?
I can’t smell anything in particular. I suppose a faint trace of orange juice.
32) What's the worst place you have ever been to?
The Worst? I have no idea… I don’t think of things in that way.
33) Choose East Coast or West Coast?
East Coast.
34) Most attractive singer of your opposite gender?
Shou is Adonis but I find Ruki so fkn cute >>
35) To you, what is the meaning of life?
What overly complicated question… Anyhow, why should life have a meaning? Whatever that meaning may be if there was one, it would only degrade life.
36) Define Art.
Art depicts life. I’m not so concerned with what is and what isn’t art because I think the term “art” adds status to something which art shouldn’t have.
37) Do you believe in luck?
I should say no but I think there is a part in all of us that kinda does, right?
38) What's the weather like right now?
It’s unseasonably warm for early January in Chicago but it is cold nonetheless. The sky is clear.
39) What time is it?
3:38 p.m. Although I started this thing earlier, stopped, read and came back to it.
40) Do you drive? If so, have you ever crashed?
No. But one time back in high school during driving class, I almost hit a fellow student.
41) What was the last book you read?
Currently, I’m reading Snow by Orhan Pamuk. So technically speaking, it was the last one I read although I’m not finished with it yet.

I hate it. It makes me nauseated. My dad though loves the smell.
43) Do you have any nicknames?
Lexi, Bones, Alex, Cat Queen… I’m sure there are others.
44) What was the last movie you saw?
Apocalypse Now. And it was brilliant.
45) What's the worst injury you've ever had?
I’ve been fortunate enough not to have a real injury. I’ve been sick in various way but not seriously wounded. One time though, I cut a chunk of flesh out of my thumb when I was younger trying to remove the ball in the inside of a Barbie’s neck.
46) Have you ever caught a butterfly?
Caught? No,but they have landed on me several times.
47) Do you have any obsessions right now?
Visual Kei as usual. I’ve been obsessively waiting for my copy of Niji no Yuki to come in because I desperately want to watch the live performance of Gemini on the big television with the surround sound.
48) What's your sexual orientation?
Heterosexual although I’m not ruthless about it. I can see the sexual appeal of women but am relatively indifferent to it. I don’t link sexual attraction with love so I think it’s possible to fall in love with anyone.
49) Ever had a rumor spread about you?
Probably. In high school, there seem to be rumors or legends of any sort floating about. If I heard anything of them about myself I only vaguely remember. One I do recall is that people used to think my best friend in high school, Jessica was my girlfriend. XDD
50) Do you believe in magic?
Not the Harry Potter kind. But the muggle (sp?) kind I do believe in. I remember that about the Weasley father, he had a high regard for muggle magic.
51) Do you tend to hold grudges against people who have done you wrong?
No. I forgive readily.
52) What is your astrological sign?
Leo with Scorpio rising. My Chinese is Horse. I think I’m a metal horse but Dani was saying something about me being fire since I was born in the summer.
53) Do you save money or spend it?
Generally spend it.
54) What's the last thing you purchased?
Starbucks Coffee. Since we have cut down our visits to Starbucks, it’s a weekend treat now. Although, the goddamn drink I got gave me a bellyache.
55) Love or lust?
Love
56) In a relationship?
No.
57) How many relationships have you had?
None, actually. Men usually only get to know me up to certain degree and then, start to ignore me.
58) Can you touch your nose with your tongue?
No. Who do you think I am? Gene Simmons?
59) Where were you yesterday?
I was in class at Actone in Downtown Chicago. Then, I came home and mostly slept.
60) Is there anything pink within 10 feet of you?
There are only 3 pink things in my entire room that I can see. A pair of pink socks on the floor, the pink tentacles on the Dir en Grey shirt that Twin gave to Dani and that I’m wairing and the pink suit that Byou from Screw is wearing in the Brainstorm card that I have pinned up on my wall.
61) Are you wearing socks right now?
Yes.
62) What's your favorite animal?
A domestic cat or an elephant which seems to be a common favorite amongst vegans.
63) What is your secret weapon to get someone to like you?
I don’t have one. I have a vague feeling that most people don’t like me? They don’t dislike me but I am usually myself so I don’t have any tricks in my bag.
64) Where is your best friend?
Dani is in Mom’s room watching a documentary about Muslim Punk music. I have no idea what Toni is doing. Perhaps playing video games? Hika is probably sleeping. Ami is probably hanging out with her brother or Kristen. Twin might be at work although I’m hoping she is either staring at walls or practicing her guitar.
65) Spit or swallow?(;
What??!!!! Um… if I were…in that case… I mean…If I would be for someone I really really liked…so swallow >.<; AWKWARD
66) What is your heritage?
Irish, German, Ojibwe, and probably a little bit of French Canadian and British. But my heritage in all honesty, is low income urban American “non-white” since once you are something that isn’t white, you aren’t white. XDD
67) What were you doing last night at 12 AM?
Sleeping. Although, I should have been on Skype.
68) What do you think is Satan's last name?
Too many last names in Corporate America….
69) Be honest. Ever gotten yourself off?
Does that mean masturbate? Why would one even phrase the question like that like I ought to be ashamed…maybe because this survey is assuming that I am female and that I should be ashamed of my sexuality. In that case, fuck you survey.
70) Are you the kind of friend you would want to have as a friend?
Sure. I think I am rather interesting XDD
71) You are walking down the street on your way to work. There is a dog drowning in the canal on the side of the street. Your boss has told you if you are late one more time you get fired. What do you do?
Save the dog. No question. I’ll explain my situation to my boss and if they fire me, they are assholes and I’m not going to work for some asshole.
72) You are at the doctor’s office and she has just informed you that you have approximately one month to live.
a) Do you tell anyone/everyone you are going to die?
Yes. Although, your life is your own, it isn’t. You can’t just die suddenly on people if you can let them know.
b) What do you do with your remaining days?
Be with my family. Maybe go see the Pacific ocean.
c) Would you be afraid?
Right now, I think no but that’s because I have no idea what that’s like to be terminally ill.
73) You can only have one of these things; trust or love.
Love. Trust is meaningless without love.
74) What's a song that always makes you happy when you hear it?
birth in the death by Alice Nine. It makes me feel really content and it inspires me. And when I am inspired, I am the happiest. Also, Remember the Urge by Gazette because it brings back good memories of listening to it over and over again with Hika and Dani shouting Barsuuuu Rockkuuu.
75) What are the last four digits in your cell phone number?
1791
76) In your opinion, what makes a great relationship?
Confiding in one another.

Say something beautiful.
78) Can insanity bring on more creativity?
Anything can bring on more creativity.
79) What is the single best decision you have made in your life so far?
Making up the original Comp. That’s how discovered Visual Kei XDD
80) What size shoes do you where?
7
81) What would you want to be written on your tombstone?
Hmm a line of poetry? Let me get back to you on that.
82) What is your favorite word?
Him. It’s so simple. And it can be so suggestive of many different things. I suppose if I weren’t attracted to men, it would be her.
83) Give me the first thing that comes to mind when you hear the word; heart.
Kokoro. I like the Japanese meaning of the world more. I think it’s more fitting.
84) What is a saying you say a lot?
It’s cute. I love it ! XDD Change the pronouns depending on what I’m talking about.
85) What's the last song you listened to?
I’m listening to my Fleet Foxes’ record. I don’t know their names yet.
86) Basic question; what's your favorite color/colors?
I like Green and Brown.
87) What is your current desktop picture?
The same as the one on my LJ. The silhouette of Toshiya against a deep red background. It’s in high resolution and is extremely beautiful.
88) If you could press a button and make anyone in the world instantaneously explode, who would it be?
Hmm… I have no one in mind at the moment. But, I’m not angry currently. I can be aggressive though.
89) What would be a question you'd be afraid to tell the truth on?
Err… There are many and if I suggest them doesn’t that in turn, suggest my answer? I suppose questions about faith…But I’m relatively open, aren’t I?
90) One night you wake up because you heard a noise. You turn on the light to find that you are surrounded by MUMMIES. The mummies aren't really doing anything, they're just standing around your bed. What do you do?
Um… Is this question supposed to be cute?
91) You accidentally eat some radioactive vegetables. They were good, and what's even cooler is that they endow you with the super-power of your choice! What is that power?
To heal people.
92) You can re-live any point of time in your life. The time-span can only be a half-hour, though. What half-hour of your past would you like to experience again?
Ugh…This one is really difficult. I think I would relive that time where me and Dani were standing on the bridge that connects this recreation area downtown to the beach. It arches over the big street called Lake Shore Drive and it has about 8 lanes and there are tons of cars going back and forth. It was around sunset and the lights from the cars were really beautiful. The memory is kinda bittersweet. It was a really rough time for me then, and I remembered were talking about hide. He was obsession then and he always had a way of making me feel happy. Even at that time, I knew I would remember that moment in the same way. I won’t say too much since I feel describing it in too much detail like this does a bit of disservice to my feelings about that moment.
93) You can erase any horrible experience from your past. What will it be?
This question is equally personal but since I'm among friends.. Um… I think I would erase my parents’ alcoholism.
94) You have the opportunity to sleep with the music-celebrity of your choice. Who would it be?
Oh..well..Too many to choose from! I’m supposed to say Ruki, right? But… if this is just the hanky panky…I guess I would say Uruha or Aoi-they seem to be the more attentive lovers. XDD…Er… Sorry Ami!! But this is a HIGHLY UNLIKELY instance and I WOULDN’T STEAL YOUR MAN. He just seems talented that’s all not to mention he has a beautiful body…
95) You just got a free plane ticket to anywhere. You have to depart right now. Where are you gonna go?
Tokyo…Of course. That’s where all the bands are.
96) Do you have any relatives in jail?
Currently… I don’t know. My brother told me had spent some time there though.
97) Have you ever thrown up in the car?
I used to be really car sick when I was younger.
98) Ever been on a plane?
Actually, no. Never had the opportunity.
99) If the whole world were listening to you right now, what would you say?
There is nothing I can say that hasn’t already been said. I think if such a situation like that were to happen, I would have to give it a lot of thought and at the moment, I haven’t.
100) Give me your top 5 favorite blogs on Tumblr.
^Because this is a tumblr survey…right… Um… I like Dani’s and this dude assholekyo since he is really funny. Also, this chick who calls herself Stuckman, she’s like a lot of bands and is also a Vegetarian. There’s another one of this lesbian Kiyoharu lover who has great taste in books. But other than that, I don’t really pay that much attention to whose posts I’m looking at. I would say Hika but I never see her posts since they are spammed out of existence.
