6: God, that's a hard one... There's so many places that I've never been to! The British Islands and the Holy Lands and Greece have always been in the top 2... with Moscow/St. Petersburg third. **snirks** hey, dream big, or stay home, you know... ;)
6 - You mentioned once ages ago in a post that you stopped singing in public for some reason. I've always wondered why.
I always sang around the house in high school, and I performed in talent shows a lot, but when I moved to Bellingham for college, I was too embarrassed/shy to sing in the dorms. I lived on campus for my first three years of college, and as the voice is wont to due when it's not getting used, it grew rusty. By the time I moved into an apartment, I sounded so terrible that I couldn't stand listening to myself.
Fortunately, though, this story has a happy ending. nuin liked my singing, and was always encouraging me to sing around the house when I lived with her, and now, I'm living with my very musical partner, who is always singing, and playing the guitar, and encouraging me to join him. My voice isn't back to where it used to be (and it probably never will be, since female voices peak at 18), but it sounds good enough that I'm starting to miss performing.
1 - **Grins** Technically you asked to friends me but the reason that I agreed is because when you emailed me to offer support for my ill grandmother something in me just clicked and I got a feeling that you were someone who I'd love... and I do ^__^
2 - Hmm, 'I'll always be your loser, honey' many and varied reasons. Firstly we often spend time boost each others flagging ego, secondly 'The Sharp Things' **Squee*, thirdly its just a sweet song, like your personality.
3 - You are far too down on yourself. You are a strong intelligent woman, remember that.
4 - Reading, "In the Name of Love"... amazing story and what set me back into the S/J love and dying to become friends with someone who could write that beautifully.
5 - Sanzo/Goku... if it wasn't for you I love them quite as much as I do.
6 - Ooh tough! Hmm... what used to inspire you when you used to sculpt?
7 - The one with Seto 'I Rule'... brings a smile to my face every time I see it.
I just want you to know that I'm thinking of you and reading your journal but I'm too shy to do this meme. Please don't do it on me, but do keep the memories/thoughts inside where I know that they are. *smile*
I'd also like an update on the play situation, if you have a minute. Sort of curious since I've been mentally rooting for you.
**Smiles** Don't worry I totally understand, just know that I'm thinking of the many lovely memories I have of conversations with you and smiling.
Ah, the play is going better than predicted. After a rocky start we seem to be mostly on track. All of the rewrites are done and most people have learned their lines and the second play is right on track too. I'm really excited about the plays in general. We potentially are going to get them recorded, if so I'll upload them for people to see if they are interested, I think the content of the Homophobia one may interest you.
LOL. Why does everyone always think I'd be interested in such subjects? Seriously, I'm good. If anything I've learned the reason why certain stereo-types exist. I'm interested in sexuality in general. I'm around every sort of sexuality all the time - especially homosexuals who can stereotype/shun people of other sexualities as much as they themselves may have felt shunned. Two wrongs don't make a right, but it is also human nature to want to get even. The gay culture is a unique world, I'm not sure that completely heterosexual people truly understand it. Japanese women acknowledge that they portray fantasies for women, they do not claim to accurately potray gay male relationships at all. They welcome male fans, but it is a surprise to them to aquire such (and still in a great minority). What's interesting though, is that in America, yaoi (often sexual fantasy, or "porn") has stood as a sort of 'introduction' and/or representation of gay lifestyles. Certainly though, I'll say, that it would seem hypocritical to be against
( ... )
**Laughs** I guess I meant it more that I thought you'd be interested to see our world back to front... everyone thinks it would be a better world but to be honest it's just as much of a mess the way I've written it, possinly even more.
**Blush** Thank you, I am very excited, though I am actually more excited about my other play 'Redemption' which is quite a dark piece and looks at mental illness issues. **Sigh** It's all be cheery topics with me!
And my Monday off was cancelled but I have been offered cake if I go in so I'm not really complaining about the extra work. **Grins** I'm far too easy lol.
6. Oh man...that's a toughie... Curses! **ponders** Probably Settie. He's my first love, and in the grand scheme of things, he's the one that if he was 'real', he'd do the least amount of damage in the world. XD
**Bounce** Ooh Seto, good choice. I'd probably break down and just have to have Hakkai... but I tell ya what, we can play swapsies with them every so often. **Grin**
