I'm Goin' Ghost!
1. Name: Rachel
2. Age: 23 (and let me just say, the fact that the poster before me is 22 made me feel SO much better about that!)
3. Location: Maryland, USA
4. What is the significance of your user name?: It’s the name of an Inuyasha character I was infatuated with Back In The Day when I made the LJ.
5. List three positive adjectives about yourself: Dependable; kind; funny.
6. Three negative adjectives: Short-tempered; introverted; misanthropic.
7. Do you have any hobbies? : Drawing; photography; reading; volunteering for my local Humane Society.
8. What is your dream job? : I hope to get my Master’s degree in Social Work, get an LCSW-C license and go into counseling, hopefully being able to work with transgender/transsexual clients.
9. Do you have any random obsessions besides Danny Phantom? : DO I?? Comic books (and graphic novels like WE3, Transmetropolitan, etc.); Naruto; just about any cartoon, ever; going to anime conventions in costume; my kitty Sunsubiro (that's "sunset" in Esperanto!); The Internets.
10. Do you consider your self to be part of any particular group; Jock, Goth, Band Nerd, etc. (it’s ok I was a band nerd!)? : I like to consider myself a geek. In the "circus geek" sense of the word. But I think I'm more of a working stiff than anything else these days.
11. What drew you into Danny Phantom, and why do you like it? : Didn’t like it at first, thinking "What? An action cartoon by ‘The Fairly Oddparents’ guy?? That’s gonna suck." Then I watched a few episodes and fell in love. Hartman’s style definitely sets it apart from other cartoons and lends itself to some pretty nifty character designs. Also, while a few episodes have disappointed me, I usually find them to be well-written and inventive.
12. Who is your favorite character and why? : Aww, I gotta choose? I’ll go with Technus. I can't explain why I like him so much, outside of the fact that he cracks me up and he's just so...so...lame. But in a really amusing and kick-ass sort of way. Plus I find his character designs (since his look varies practically episode to episode) to be fantastic.
13. What was your favorite episode and why? : Tough one. I’ll go with "My Brother’s Keeper". I have a Psychology degree, so how can I not love an episode that centers on both an evil school psychologist and Jazz? (Also, Bertrand was way more faboo in this episode than in "Doctor's Disorders". That's important.)
14. What are your views on the paranormal? : I’m pretty skeptical. Never seen a ghost, UFO, etc., no matter how much I’d like to. Doesn't stop me from enjoying learning about them, though!
15. Do you mind being stamped as a character of the opposite sex? : Pff, no.
16. Any thing else you’d be willing to share with us( it’s ok we’re all friends here!? : The song "Lost Boys and Golden Girls" reminds me of Johnny 13 and Kitty in ways I doubt that Meat Loaf intended it to. Also, I have Ember's song on my mp3 player and listen to it 3, 4 times in a row when I'm driving because I'm an enormous nerd.
17. Please post some pictures of your self:
