- Leave me a comment and I'll respond by asking you five questions so I can get to know you better.
- Update your journal with the answers to the questions.
- Include this explanation in the post and offer to ask other people questions.
1. What is your dream job if anything was possible?
If anything was possible? Gundam pilot. :D What, you said anything! But I probably wouldn't make it since my hand-eye coordination is kind of bad. >.> So is my tactical skills, come to think of it. Ever see me play RTS games? Yeah, not pretty.
Realistically though, I'd love to be a well-known author, not necessarily famous like J.K. Rowlings or Stephanie Meyers. I know my writing is passable but it's not great. I'd love to write an original novel in the style of Neil Gaiman or Terry Pratchett, something really funny yet still profound.
2. What is your perfect day?
Hmm, my perfect day? Is really, where I can relax either by myself or with family/friends. You know, those lazy Saturday/Sundays where all the chores are done, and there's little to do but eat, nap, and read the comics/watch a movie/shop at a mall. What can I say, I am a boring low maintenance person. ;)
3. What really inspires you and excites you in life?
Number one thing that inspires me has to be music. I like a wide range of music, so when I hear an old favourite or a really catchy new song, I just feel so happy. Also, the lyrics from some songs really speak to me, like the lyrics of Jann Arden or Chantal Kreviazuk.
Another thing that inspires me is a good book. I love reading a novel that can transport me to a whole new world. Sounds cliche, but it's true. ;) More recently, I've found some poetry that has done the same thing. It's amazing what a few simple words can do to you.
4. What defines you as a person?
Hmm, this is a toughie. I'm not sure how to answer this. But I like to think I stick up for my principles and morals, even if it's uncool or whatever (people have asked me to smoke pot before, and I said no. I don't care if others do it, but pot or other drugs is something I won't do).
5. What does happiness mean to you?
I think everyone deserves to be happy as long as it doesn't infringe on someone else's happiness/safety/freedom etc. Happiness can be free or it can be bought and it's different for everyone. Kind of related to #3, this question reminds me of a poem, part of which is in my side bar. Silver-Lined Heart by Taylor Mali
