Tell Me Your? ( p l e a s e :)

[Tengri]

superhero power: The ability to speak to animals, a la Radagast or daemons in His Dark Materials trilogy. The Lovecraft quote comes to mind, "Through all this horror my cat stalked unperturbed. Once I saw him monstrously perched atop a mountain of bones, and wondered at the secrets that might lie behind his yellow eyes."

thing you learned in school that you actually use in 'real life': childhood development

Superhero Power: I want to fly... like the balloons.

Technology That's Now Obsolete: I strongly appreciate calling 800-numbers and talking to humans.

Place to Be Kissed: On... on me, or like, on top of the Empire State Building? Either way, my lips and up against a wall.

Pizza Toppings: Cheese and sauce, motherfucker. I'm from New Jersey, where real pizza comes from.

Person Who Makes Me Laugh: My boyfriend wins that one.

Time of Day to Wake Up: Early, but not specific unless I'm waking up to write for a few hours.

Snack: I'm going to take some fresh mozzarella, some fresh basil, some thinly sliced, ripe tomatoes and put them on a toasted baguette and drizzle them with olive oil and balsamic vinegar... and eat it all with a glass of wine.

Spot to Think Alone: I'll head to the library to hole up for hours, or go out in nature. Conversely, I'll go into the crowd in New York City, or go to a brewery and read alone.

Person or Place You'd Visit: I'd visit New Jersey where a lot of my friends and family are.

Book: How dare you. Don't make me choose just one of my children.

Time Playing, As a Child: Well, my friends used to show up to my house and tell me if I asked them to play cats they would leave.

Way to Blow Off Steam: I listen to loud music, go dancing, do drinking, or do all of the above at once.

[Numbly Aware]

R.I.P. lol cool. =) how old

 

[Taibreah]

-superhero power
Flight. I've always wanted to be able to soar up in the sky and above the clouds. This super power would make me feel so free. I'm reminded of a song now. Hehe

-technology that's now obsolete
Typewriters from the earlier 1900s. I had one and it was the most treasured thing to me. It was unique and it will always hold a special place in my heart.

-human invention
The Internet. I sometimes wonder what would have become of my life, dreams, and goals had that not been invented, because it's seems everything revolves around the Internet for me now. I can see that as a good and a bad thing. But, overall, I am glad the Internet was invented.

-pizza toppings
Pineapple and ham, or pineapple and chicken. Yes, I'm one of those.

-person who makes you laugh
My best friend. Always know how to cheer me up too.

-time of the day to wake up
9:00 maybe. But, it just the normal time I wake up. I don't like to sleep in too much, it makes the day harder to get through and I'll usually go through the day with a bad mood if I wake up too late.

-snack
Pringles (chips). All sort of flavors. My favorites are BBQ, Sour cream and onion, cheddar, and ranch.

-spot to think alone
Probably my own room. But, if I'm out by myself, I would choose a nice quiet park to be alone with my thoughts.

I would love to go on a road trip throughout the US and Canada, especially if it were all expenses paid. Road trips are my favorite!

-time playing, as a child
Playing alone with my Hot Wheels and other car toys, and pretending that I was a car.

-question/observation about yourself - from someone else
Quiet, but observant.

-weather
I love it when it rains and could never be unhappy about it. Well, maybe if it got out of hand and started a flood, I wouldn't be too happy about it.

-memory with a family member
Road trips and other vacation type memories. I could go into great detail, but there are too many.

-thing you learned in school that you actually use in 'real life'
Typing without looking at the keys.

-question you still seek an answer to
Are you serious? All of them! There are no answers to the questions I have. The only answers I get are meaningless clichés.

-way to blow off steam
Listening to Heavy Metal or playing a video game. Those are also some of the ways I boost my mood. So, it can work both ways.

-smell
I love the smell of the air when it's rained in the mountains and forested areas.

-wonder found in nature
The natural occurrences of our surroundings. Such as the formation of the Grand Canyon, the geysers in Yellowstone National Park, and the stalagmites of caverns.

I was 9 and my (only) brother was in senior high school. He was supposed to be studying hard, but snuck in the room and sat on the bed next to his studying table. He was listening to Pink Floyd's Welcome to the Machine. He looked at me for a second and asked "do you know who's this?". Said "nop". He raised the volume and we listened together for couple minutes before he threw an eraser at me. It was all fair in war and music! Pillows, books, clothes, audio cassettes flying across the room. Dad walked in and i got grounded for "disturbing the peace of my hard working bro". Dad didn't know my brother would leave the house the following year and never come back, yet.

Tell me your favourite:


-superhero power --

Well, my actual "superpower" is the power of escalating people's random goofiness such that people always feel comfortable around me. I consider this to be my superpower But in terms of actual superpowers, I reckon the best one would be to go inside other people's minds like Granny Weatherwax when she Borrows in Terry Pratchett's books.

-technology that's now obsolete

Probably the telephones with the circular dial mechanism. I had one as a kid and I loved it. Or maybe typewriters, they're fun.

-human invention

LIGO (searches for gravitational waves) and the LHC (searches for subatomic particles)

-place to be kissed

I was really intrigues that about 50% of people interpreted this as "where you would like to be standing when you are kissed" and 50% interpreted it as "which body part do you like to be kissed on". I went with the latter and my answer is, the neck

-person who makes you laugh

Well my *favourite* person who makes me laugh is definitely my husband. Louis CK the comedian had me in absolute hysterics the other day as well though so I'll mention him.

-snack

Chocolate! Always.

-spot to think alone

My front garden where I have a little plot of native plants and herbs and a bushland across the road. I like to sit there with a pot of tea and draw.

[QUOTE -person or place you'd visit if given time off & a free trip [/QUOTE] Russia. At the moment anyway... it changes! I want to go everywhere.

-book

too many to mention but my favourite authors are Madeleine L'Engle, Ursula LeGuin, Terry Pratchett and Robin Hobb.

-body part

hahaha such a random question... probably my arms or my boobs...

-question/observation about yourself - from someone else

It was reported to me that someone said "She's the coolest person I know". Also, "You're so confident" and "you inspire me" because these show me that how I look to other people doesn't match the social anxiety I often feel which leads me to think others are probably just as confused about life as me and it makes me more confident in the end anyway!

-thing you learned in school that you actually use in 'real life'

basic arithmetic.

-question you still seek an answer to

So deep... maybe like "do I have free will?" or "why is there suffering?"

-way to blow off steam

Running until I die.

-smell

Peaches, nectarines, lemons or limes Or rain smell.

-exclamation when you are mad

Blast!

-lie you tell yourself or others

I'm not scared. (Enneagram 6 hahaha)

-wonder found in nature

too many again! Everything! The night sky, I love watching the way water behaves, light weaving under the water, mountains, my chickens... large trees. Those are the first ones to spring to mind.

-tradition you have

Painting/dying eggs at Easter - it's an Eastern European tradition, my mum's side of the family is from Latvia originally.

-article of clothing or possession

Well I have these great thigh high brown leather boots that I love a lot. I also like my wedding/engagement rings a lot for obvious reasons. And I really love my set of chalk pastels in a wooden case


I had fun answering these questions, thank you

H
I’m fascinated by animals in general. I’m one of those people who smiles stupidly when I see dogs being dogs or cats being cats.

(The other day a pug was wiping its face on some random guy's backpack in the bus--it was raining-- I was the only one who noticed and I'm sitting there smiling like an idiot)

I am the same!! I love animals and I especially love watching my chickens bocking around the yard.
