[journal] Three Ways to Say I Love You, and Other Assorted Memes (part 1)
Here are a bunch of memes from Ahmerst's journal I've been meaning to do, along with some interesting info at the end. Hurhurhur.
------
*****I essentially just stole this off of Ahmerst’s journal. Why? Because I promised I’d do it someday. Today is that day. ….unless I delete this in a bout of frustration. And then I wouldn’t know how you’re reading this…unless I look under my bed and-OH SHI-!
Name - Katelyn
Nicknames - …uh. People never notice me enough to give me nicknames. Well, there’s Boffin. ...that's about it.
Birthday - July 21st
Zodiac - Cancer (yaaaaay, I’m a deadly disease! :D)
Hair - Brown.
Eyes - Blue-grey
Height - 5’5 - 5’6 depending on the doctor
Body Type - Amorphous blob?
Relationship Status - I don’t think anyone could be interested in me. I’m single and happy about it, because being close to other people is annoying.
Kids - …as in…those little parasite things? They always cry when they see me, but maybe it’s different for other people.
Pets - …2 old dogs, a Rottweiler and a Dalmatian, and 5 cats. …Yeah. People aren’t allowed over at our house.
Religious Views - I don’t know. Literally. I’m my own little church of Idontevenknowism, characterized by my latent inability to say, ‘Fuck you all, leave me alone.’
Political Views - I’m independent! A free thinker! A person that believes in pro-choice and the 2nd amendment! (Although, if you think about it, it may not be that surprising.) I’m a pussy-footer, a go-between, an indecisive twit. But I don’t care, because I would honestly never vote for any of these current presidential candidates in a million years. And political parties are for schmucks.
City/State/Country - Palm Beach Gardens, Florida, United States of Awesome~
Favourite Colour - Hmmmm…gah, dammit, don’t make me choose! Um, well, in order, orange, green, and purple.
Favorite Flower - I love gardenias~ I also have a special place in my heart for anemones, and chrysanthemums (for those of you who get the reference).
Favourite Movie(s) - How to Train Your Dragon, Artificial Intelligence, Kiki’s Delivery Service, Spirited Away, Brave Story, Gattaca, Fly Away Home
Favorite Song(s) - The songs I will never get tired of are Fix You, by Coldplay, Blue, by Yoko Kanno, You Smiled Kindly (or Yasashiku Kimi wa Hohoende Ita), from the .Hack// GU soundtrack, Crazy Sunshine, by The Pillows, “From Now on We are Enemies”, by Fall Out Boy, and Camisado, by Panic at the Disco.
I’ve got variety, yo. ;-;
3 Random Facts about you:
1. The first video game that I ever owned was Pokemon, Blue Version. But the first video game that I ever truly felt I beat (because let’s face it: you can never feel like you beat Pokemon until you caught all the pokemon in the game, and that never happens), is Final Fantasy Tactics Advance, which is one of the two things that truly launched me into my hobby of fanfiction writing. (It’s a long story, that I’ll tell-someday…)
2. I almost drowned when I was a kid, which prompted my parents to finally have me get swimming lessons.
3. I once wore a beard and kissed random strangers on the cheek. There is a story behind this...but I won't tell you. Maybe someday.
Story behind your username:
For my LJ username, I’m ‘eram_quod_es’. Eram quod es is the beginning of a popular latin phrase: Eram quod es, eris quod sum. ‘I was what you are, you will be what I am.’ I love symbolism and clever quotes. This basically talks about death, and it really stamps into my head another favorite phrase, ‘Memento mori.’ Remember that you must die. Morbid, but I love it~
1. First Name
Katelyn. My dad named me. :) Pronounced ‘Kayt-lin,’ like how you would normally pronounce Caitlin. It’s not ‘Kah-teh-leen,’ like how many people pronounce it. Call me that way, and I will kill you. Verbally. I will verbally kill you. Slay, even. I will verbally slay you. And then cry.
2. Age
18
3. Location
I live in Palm Beach Gardens. :) Just a bit east of West Palm Beach. I live in a pretty convenient location, as I am located in the Palm Beach Country Estates aka the creaky little suburbs at the north end of Donald Ross Road. Everything is really spaced out, and the drivers are crazy teenagers, distracted middle-aged people, or oldsters, so walking around is almost certain death. I live only 15 minutes away from the beach. I love it here, and I don’t think I’ll ever plan on moving. XD But if I do, I’d love to live in St. Augustine, one of my most favorite places in the world.
4. Occupation
Full-time college student. I’m working on getting into the nursing program at Palm Beach State College. :) There are plenty of places for nurses here in Florida, so that also funds my hopes of staying here for the rest of my life.
5. Partner?
Nope. Unless you include my internet husbando, Ahmerst. But I’m not looking for a partner. The WORLD isn’t emotionally ready for me to have a partner. THE WORLD. Oh yeah~
6. Kids
I hate them. …is that bad to say? Oh, okay. I despise their existence.
7. Brothers/Sisters
I have one twit of an older sister. We’re separated by about 4 years. While she thinks she’s older and wiser than me, the only real thing she has is, chronologically, her body is older. Maturity, intellect, and common sense-wise…She is an utter idiot. I say this in confidence, not only because I have to deal with her on a constant basis, but also because I know the way she thinks, I’ve had to proof-read her college essays (I’m the lit-nerd in the family, somehow…), and I’ve had to sit through her relationship drama. I love her. Really. Deep down. In a place where all my brain cells are dead and they can’t register the sheer stupidity of whatever sentence garbage she vomits from her oral cavern.
8. Pets
I’ve got my old, dumpy 12-year-old Rottweiler, Max, and my old, cripple-tastic 13-year-old Dalmatian, Laea.Then Arianna the grumpy black cat, Ojo the yappy blue-grey Russian, Rikku, my beloved, shy orange cat, Nick-Nick, the super-zen cat, and the resident butthole cat, Tadpole.
9. List the 3-5 biggest things going on in your life
Finding the inspiration to continue with fanfiction writing.
Getting into the nursing program at school.
Generating enough money to send Ahmerst her gift-package along with buying the new Pokemon game and Dissidia 012.
10. Parents
I love mom and dad. Even if they’re crazy. Fucking insane.
11. Who are some of your closest friends?
I have no friends. :|
Kidding. Uhm, strangely enough, I honestly don’t have many real-life friends, and even then, I wouldn’t call them particularly close. Online, on the other hand, I have all sorts of wonderful people, like Voyse (my internet-rapist), Ahmerst the Incredible, Marr the Wonder-goat, and Monika (my Miami-stalker).
12. What are some of the things you like most?
Writing, reading, pudding, video games, ducks, photography, fanfiction…your mom.
13. A photo of yourself and anything else you want to say:
It is technically a full frontal. Shush.
Hooray for photoshop editing. :D Alas, it cannot genetically alter me, so not everything about my face can be fixed.
I have a mysterious lump near my collar bone. I don’t know what it is. My parents don’t know what it is. My friends don’t. It’s right near my collar bone, slightly squishy, and I’ve had it for over a year (maybe 2, I can’t recall). The thing is, this lump was so tiny and insignificant, I didn’t pay it any attention. Literally, it was pea-sized, imbedded in my collar bone. The only way you’d know it was there is if you felt around for it. But, in January, the lump suddenly swelled to twice its size.
I was worrying and complaining about it to my mother and Voyse because it had actually become painful to touch it. I was entirely baffled, but after a couple weeks of ignoring people’s pleas of going to see a doctor, the swelling went down slightly, and it no longer hurt. It was still roughly twice its normal size, but I learned to live with it. Well, that was the end of January, and here we are in the middle of March. I’m starting to get worried again because it’s starting to hurt when I touch it again, which is troublesome since it’s in the exact location of my bra-strap, and my school bag, both of which press down heavily on my shoulder, and therefore my lump. Ouch.
It’s no longer red, so no worries. I think it might be a lymph node, some think it might be a cyst, and for some reason, Voyse is convinced it’s a broken bone. I dunno. Dammit, I’m not a doctor yet. Eventually I will schedule a doctor’s appointment. Just…not right now.

Now for another meme!
Ahmerst has asked me 5 questons. :) If you guys want me to ask any of you five questions, go ahead and tell me in the comments, and I’ll ask you guys. Easy, right?
1) WHUDDUP?
OH NOTHING.
2) What is the secret behind people calling you Samuel?
It all happened at a party.
3) What's your favorite food?
Pudding~ And garlic linguini alfredo. Fwaaah~
4) How much candy would it take for you to get in a stranger's car?
Wha? Strangers give you candy when you get in their cars? D: I’ve been getting gipped the entire time!
5) What are a few of your favorite books?
Mmm, wah. I have a lot. But a lot of them I read when I was kid, though their stories have stuck with me for years. First and foremost, Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland, and Through the Looking Glass and What Alice Found There. Hands down, my favorites. Also, The DayDreamer, The Adventures of Freak the Mighty, The Last Book in the Universe, Ender’s Game, Ender’s Shadow, Out of the Dust, Found, The Supernaturalist, the Artemis Fowl series, The Seventh Tower series, Jane Eyre, and The Great Gatsby. That is merely a few for me. :| Really. A few means 14. For reals.
