I'm a sucker for peer pressure occasionaly.

So it seems that by participating in a livejournal chain activity of sorts it is asked of me to spread it like a dull aching virus. Thus ( Read more... )

1.) I hardly feel the same. I have continued to unbury the emotions in myself that I had so well hidden away. I have let go of all previous decisions about life and want never to have any. I feel like I've found how to be alive and why I felt like a machine before. This year has been the end of a winter and the begining of a spring for me. (And I am way into metal now thanks to you.)

2.) You probably needed to take a left on Warren. You've got a good sense of direction. You'll find your way back.

3.) Love is inspirational gift baskets... baby.

What is the biggest regret in your life?

What was the happiest moment of your life?

Do you think you and I could ever return to the motherland together and explore our roots?

1.) I don't like regrets. I mean, the past happened and it got me where I am and that's that. But with all that aside I guess I have felt very upset with myself for deciding early in my life that the best way to be happy was for people to like me and the best way for people to like me was to be what they wanted. That's something grew wrapped around my brain that is terribly hard to weed out. Still I have learned from it though, so I can't say I regret it.

2.) Oh man. That's tough. See, the past has been good, but the present is the only time I REALLY enjoy. But maybe as far as joy levels go, the happiest moment of my life continues to be updated whenever I get to be with Bethany.

3.) As soon as the government starts asking me for all this loan money back and I'm forced to leave the U.S.

What do you miss most about being at your home? besides people.

What is your favorite thing that you own?

Why are you so wonderful?

1.) I miss being able to, when I'm feeling depressed, leave my house in the middle of the night and stalk deer and lay in the grass and look at the moon and try to be part of everything.

In Detroit I have to go out and stalk rats and lay on the sidewalk with the homeless looking up at the GM tower trying to be something else.

2. Currently (and I thought about this for a while) it's between this portrait of Richard that I drew in Drawing class once (it reminds me that I have the potential to go where I am trying to), the effigy you carved at Coyote Tracks and gave to me (which helps me find reality when I am lost) and the end of my broken palet-knife turned sculpting tool (my favortite tool I own now and so totally humble).

3.) Bah. :) I love you.

Alright, I'm game...

1. Why the obsession with Pirates?
2. What's the meaning of life? (I'm serious.)
3. Have you ever considered becoming a writer?

1.) I AM a pirate. You don't have to believe me, but it's true.

2.) I don't know if there is a particular meaning. I think life might be constantly growing. So there is no direction someone is supposed to go. There is only the direction we are going. It's nice to become more and more aware of it and accepting of it but even that's not really neccisary. Everything will continue to grow anyway.

Hmm, basically I don't think I believe in should/shouldn't. It doesn't make any sense. So then it's hard to understand purpose. Purpose seems based on shoulds and shouldnt's.

3.) That would be really fun. I don't know what I'd write about though. I have difficulty writing anything of length cause I can't see how it's going to go until I'm writing it. I can't visualize the whole. My thoughts end up being disjointed and the main idea ends up taking a seat behind appealing tangents.

1) If there were a Church of Curtis, what would its beliefs involve?

2) Which is better, ketchup or mayo?

3) If you could have a photograph of one historical event that occured before the invention of the camera, what would it be?

1.) The followers would probably live in sewer systems and abandoned warehouses. They would light fires under man-hole covers in the name of the destruction of accepted society. They would have a book of my drawings and paintings and they woud find deep meaning in them and say that they were created by an almighty force through my hands. No-one would ever cut there hair. Carved wooden masks would be worn in the day and children would be tatooed with stripes at three years old ( ... )
