Once you do something, you never forget. Even if you can't remember.
About you
My name is: Zel
Gender: m
Because we do respect the lj code here, are you over 13?: yep
How has your day been so far? (Just curious): crappy. I've been sick and I have a lot of stuff to do but am having a hard time doing it. Also, it's very cold and wet outside and my family is hogging the TVs so I can't play my video games >/ so I'm sitting around... sick, annoyed and bored at my computer.
More about you
What are your hobbies/talents/interests?: I'm into art, fiction writing, script writing, geology, history and playing Tales games. I'm also really outdoorsy and enjoy things like hiking and camping.
Give us 5 positive adjectives to describe yourself: opinionated, observant, tactical/strategist, creative, individualist
Give us 5 negative adjectives to describe yourself: moody, depressive, aggressive, stubborn, antisocial
And what do you think your best quality is?: I say things other people are too chicken to say. When there's something that really needs to be said towards someone, then I'll volunteer to do it, no matter what it is. Positive or negative, I'm not afraid to say things to people about the truth. It's okay to be a loudmouth jerk if everything I say is fact. There's no filter between my brain and my mouth and I'm not horribly cautious with what I say.
And what is your worst?: I can be very self destructive and self defeating. I'm depressive and sometimes can't see the light at the end of the tunnel, so I may give up on things more quickly than I should be.
What do you think draws other people to you?: I think the people who consider me a "friend" are drawn to me because I'm "interesting" to them, but two of my closest friends seem to just want to help me since I'm in need of help with depression, I guess.

Are you more...
Introverted or extroverted: introverted with my own emotions and extroverted with my opinions of other people, but it might be more complicated than that. I'd rather just not be seen as "weak".
Confident or shy: confident. Not a shy bone in my body
Kind or selfish: err... I don't see myself as either. I'm not very social so I don't go out of my way to be nice to people, but I'm not selfish because I don't really want attention on myself or am greedy for stuff/money. Maybe more selfish when I'm being emo, though, but only for reasons related to being depressed about life.
Optimistic or pessimistic: pessimistic
Mature or immature: in the middle
A leader or a follower: loner... so neither?
Impulsive or cautious: impulsive when I'm being hot-headed, but cautious when I'm being tactical and thinking of my next move
Disorganized or systematic: systematic
Mr. Miyazaki
First Miyazaki movie you saw? How old were you and did you like the movie then?: all I know is that I was very very young when I first saw Totoro. I'm told by my mom I liked it ((she's a big Miyazaki fan so I saw that and several of the others when I was a small child))
Favorite Miyazaki movie?: Laputa. It has my favorite characters and story of all the films. The animation sequences impress me and I can really get into it. I love flying things and ancient civilization stuff, so yeah. My second favorite is Castle of Cagliostro. I've probably seen that one more than any other and the new dub is actually better than he VHS one I grew up on, even though it's the one I got used to.
Least favorite Miyazaki movie?: I really hate Howl's Moving Castle. The story sucked xP and there was a lot of useless characters in it that didn't affect the story AT ALL. I really didn't like Howl or Sophie in the least xP blech. The only Miyazaki movie I really dislike strongly.
Favorite character from a Miyazaki movie?: Pazu, Sheeta, Muska and all the sky pirates. Also Axl from Nausicaa. Well, his name is Axl in the old dub but they changed all the names in the rerelease so IDK anyone's names from that now. I also like Tombo in Kiki's Delivery Service. He tries so hard to show off his skills then fails a lot, kinda like what I do.
If you could magically become one character out of a Miyazaki film for one day, who would you want to be?: IDK Haku so I can see what it's like to fly as a dragon...?
Would you prefer a same gender stamp or all that's listed?: IDK whoever
Anything else you feel like adding while you're at it?: can't think of anything. too sick today
