+Whoah. Richard Gere, but I'd really be more confused as to why the Pope is in a bar in the first place. I mean, he's a cool guy, but Richard Gere was in a pinstripe suit singing a Broadway musical in Chicago! How can I resist?!

what famous cartoon character do you think you’re most like? why?
+A cartoon question, wonderful! *Loves cartoons* Actually, I've always thought I was like 'Lady' from 'Lady and the Tramp', because she's kind of soft spoken, but so loving and moral and she cares so much about those around her.

if you could be doing anything at the moment with anyone, what would you be doing and with whom would you be doing it?
+I'd be snuggling with Matt, because that is when I am the happiest in my life.

+books made into movies: 4 words. Lord of the Rings. Yup.
+and movies made into books: I've enjoyed them, but it's not too much fun to read them after having seen the movie. Either read the book and enjoy it, or see the movie and enjoy it.
