What Is This Thing?!

1) Put your iTunes on shuffle. Give me the first 6 songs that pop up. After the Storm - Mumford and Sons, Faithfully - Journey, She’s Always a Woman - Billy Joel, Nearness of You - Norah Jones, The Little Things You Do Together - Stephen Sondheim (Company), Fall of a House in Venice - David Arnold.

2) If you could meet anyone on this earth, who would it be? Just one?! I can’t even pick one. I would everyone on this earth. It seems like an excellent solution.

3) Grab the book nearest to you, turn to page 23, give me line 17. “He leans over, head on his knees, and brings up and incredible quantity of blood from his stomach and spills it-” wtf am I reading. Hot Zone by Richard Preston. Ebola is fun.

4) What do you think about most? Lately? Slaying Vampires… and food. Mostly food.

5) What does your latest text message from someone else say? “I sold your smoke for 75 cents!”

6) Do you sleep with socks or without socks on? Without. If I sleep with socks on, it feels like my feet are being suffocated by a soft-fingered madman.

7) What’s your strangest talent? I speak fluently in movie quotes.

8) Girls…. smell; Boys…. smell worse.

9) Ever had a poem or song written about you? No, but I had a painting painted for me.

10) When is the last time you played the air guitar? Just a few hours ago! In the car. Which probably wasn’t safe because I was driving, but whatever. The power of the air guitar cannot be silenced.

11) Do you have any strange phobias? Trypophobia.

12) Ever stuck a foreign object up your nose? When I was small, I once stuck an entire Cheeto up my nose and had to be taken to the emergency room to have it removed. :(

13) What’s your religion? Native American Spirituality

14) If you are outside, what are you most likely doing? Frolicking! Or sweating! Most likely a combination of both.

15) Do you prefer to be behind the camera or in front of it? In front of it. I’m a thesssspian~

16) Simple but extremely complex. Favorite band? Oh shit. Uh… I have way too many favorites. Lately I’ve got Billy Joel, Journey, and America going in my car but last week it was ACDC like they were going out of style.

17) What was the last lie you told? When I told my boss that I would thoroughly enjoy working at the store from open to close! :D

18) Do you believe in karma? Karma is a fickle bitch.

19) What does your URL mean? Kingdom Come in Latin.

20) What is your greatest weakness; your greatest strength? My greatest weakness is my need to please people. My greatest strength is my ability to be comfortable in my own skin, no matter what I’m doing, or how big of a fool I’m making out of myself.

21) Who is your celebrity crush? Oooooh for the love… right now it’s Anthony Steward Head as Rupert Giles. He’s pretty dang adorable.

22) Have you ever gone skinny dipping? When I was little I snuck into my neighbors back yard after they had their new pool installed, and because I’d just gotten new clothes I logically decided to strip naked so I could go swimming. They installed a very tall, pointy, black fence about two weeks later.

23) How do you vent your anger? I bottle that shit up like a genie.

24) Do you have a collection of anything? I collect old books that I can’t even read because half the pages are gone and the ink has faded. I mostly just like the smell.

25) Do you prefer talking on the phone or video chatting online? Phone. Video chatting alarms me.

26) Are you happy with the person you’ve become? Sometimes. I believe there’s always room for improvement, though.

27) What’s a sound you hate; sound you love? I hate the sound of lots of people talking at the same time. I love the sound of rain and thunder and birds and kids laughing.

28) What’s your biggest “what if”? What ifs are my least favorite things to think about. They usually have to do with the past… “what if you’d done things differently…” and I don’t believe in regretting choices. SO LET’S GO WITH WHAT IF PIGS COULD FLY. That’d suck because they’d probably shat on you a lot.

29) Do you believe in ghosts? How about aliens? Ghosts, yes. Aliens, no. I don’t really have a reason for those answers.

30) Stick your right arm out; what do you touch first? Do the same with your left arm. Right arm: that book with the nasty quote from question number three. Left arm: my playstation controller.

31) Smell the air. What do you smell? I smell freshly mowed grass from outside.

32) What’s the worst place you have ever been to? Underneath a car… or heavily populated areas of Utah. Take your pick.

33) Choose East Coast or West Coast? West Coast

34) Most attractive singer of your opposite gender? Adam Levine… me gusta.

35) To you, what is the meaning of life? The meaning of life is different to each person, but as a general rule, I believe that the meaning of life is to discover our meaning as individuals. I believe that once you’ve discovered your purpose, that’s where it ends.

36) Define Art. Expression.

37) Do you believe in luck? Nope.

38) What’s the weather like right now? Warm and sunny, except it’s dark, so warm and dark.

39) What time is it? Like ten.

40) Do you drive? If so, have you ever crashed? Nope, but I have had other people who drive crash into me… while I was walking.

41) What was the last book you read? Watership Down; a lovely book about rabbits.

42) Do you like the smell of gasoline? Oh god no; I feel like if I took fifty bucks out of my wallet and burned it, that’s exactly what it would smell like.

43) Do you have any nicknames? Oh god, yes: Zib and Eames are the most common, though.

44) What was the last movie you saw? The Iron Lady

45) What’s the worst injury you’ve ever had? I had my knee cap shattered when I’d barely learned how to walk because my uncoordinated mother fell down the stairs with me. She then had the kindness to joke about it for years afterwards.

46) Have you ever caught a butterfly? Sure! Tons of times.

47) Do you have any obsessions right now? Working, actually. Writing too. And I just started Buffy the Vampire Slayer again, since I haven’t seen it since I was a little lass, and I’m thoroughly enjoying it.

48) What’s your sexual orientation? Straight.

49) Ever had a rumor spread about you? Oh god, yes.

50) Do you believe in magic? Yes, but not the stereotypical magic like a bunny coming out of a hat or Wicca magic. I believe in spiritual magic.

51) Do you tend to hold grudges against people who have done you wrong? Not really. I get over things really easily.

52) What is your astrological sign? Taurus.

53) Do you save money or spend it? Little bit of both.

54) What’s the last thing you purchased? Pants for work.

55) Love or lust? Love~

56) In a relationship? Forever alone.

57) How many relationships have you had? Two.

58) Can you touch your nose with your tongue? If I squish my nose with my finger, I can.

59) Where were you yesterday? At work for a great majority of the day, which was slightly depressing seeing as it was my birthday.

60) Is there anything pink within 10 feet of you? My skin is… sort of pink.

61) Are you wearing socks right now? Noooooooo.

62) What’s your favorite animal? Probably the fox.

63) What is your secret weapon to get someone to like you? Faith, trust and a little pixie dust~ just kidding. Charm usually does the trick. And intelligence, if you’ve got it.

64) Where is your best friend? At… home.

65) Spit or swallow? Gum? Saliva? What am I spit/swallowing?! I’ll say spit. It sounds gritty and makes me feel like an old western outlaw.

66) What is your heritage? I am… Russian, Native American, British, Irish, German, and French, but mostly the first three.

67) What were you doing last night at 12 AM? I was at a diner with a few friends acting like a loon.

68) What do you think is Satan’s last name? I don’t even believe in Satan! So I’ll say Craig… it seems nice.

69) Be honest. Ever gotten yourself off? WUT

70) Are you the kind of friend you would want to have as a friend? Hahaha… no.

71) You are walking down the street on your way to work. There is a dog drowning in the canal on the side of the street. Your boss has told you if you are late one more time you get fired. What do you do? Save the fucking dog… and then carry it to work with me as a presentation for why I should get to keep my dog. I may or may not find a way to create a powerpoint along the way. Powerpoints impress everybody.

72) You are at the doctor’s office and she has just informed you that you have approximately one month to live. a) Do you tell anyone/everyone you are going to die? b) What do you do with your remaining days? c) Would you be afraid? I would probably shit a kitten first and foremost. Then I’d let everyone know that I was going to die, not that I shit a kitten. Then I’d try to live out as many of my dreams as I could.

73) You can only have one of these things; trust or love. I believe that with trust comes love… so… trust?

74) What’s a song that always makes you happy when you hear it? Uptown Girl - it’s very catchy.

75) What are the last four digits in your cell phone number? 5448

76) In your opinion, what makes a great relationship? That gut feeling. I guess there really isn’t a word for it, but it’s that thing you feel in the pit of your stomach whenever you’re around that person… it makes everything else seem really minuscule.

77) How can I win your heart? Oh pls! Dinner and a movie first.

78) Can insanity bring on more creativity? Uh… probably to a certain degree.

79) What is the single best decision you have made in your life so far? Acting. It’s really changed my life around.

80) What size shoes do you wear? Whatever size Ronald McDonald wears. My feet are fucking huge.

81) What would you want to be written on your tombstone? ”Do not stand at my grave and weep. I am not there, I do not sleep. I am the thousand winds that blow, I am the diamond glints of snow. I am the sunlight on ripened grain, I am the gentle autumn’s rain. Do not stand at my grave and cry. I am not there, I did not die.”

82) What is your favorite word? Crimeny.

83) Give me the first thing that comes to mind when you hear the word; heart. Pound. LOL that could be dirty.

84) What is a saying you say a lot? … crimeny!

85) What’s the last song you listened to? Sunset Boulevard

86) Basic question; what’s your favorite color/colors? Maroon

87) What is your current desktop picture? Buffy the Vampire Slayer, just the words, not Buffy herself.

88) If you could press a button and make anyone in the world instantaneously explode, who would it be? I… have no idea. Maybe that guy who stands outside and watches me mow the lawn.

89) What would be a question you’d be afraid to tell the truth on? What my biggest fear is.

90) One night you wake up because you heard a noise. You turn on the light to find that you are surrounded by MUMMIES. The mummies aren’t really doing anything, they’re just standing around your bed. What do you do? Probably go back to sleep. I thought my best bud was a police officer once because he came into my room while I was sleeping and started to shine a flashlight in my face. I rolled over and covered my head with my blanket. He was unimpressed with my lack of a reaction.

91) You accidentally eat some radioactive vegetables. They were good, and what’s even cooler is that they endow you with the super-power of your choice! What is that power? The power of persuasion. Being able to tell people something and have them listen would be a superb power.

92) You can re-live any point of time in your life. The time-span can only be a half-hour, though. What half-hour of your past would you like to experience again? Probably just a piece of the last day I spent with my mom before she passed away.

93) You can erase any horrible experience from your past. What will it be? I wouldn’t erase a single experience. I believe we learn from our mistakes and grow from them and I don’t believe in regrets… so everything happens for a reason, no matter how terrible. Besides, I’d be afraid of how erasing something from my past would change my present/future.

94) You have the opportunity to sleep with the music-celebrity of your choice. Who would it be? Haha…

95) You just got a free plane ticket to anywhere. You have to depart right now. Where are you gonna go? I’ve always wanted to see Britain or Italy. Or Barcelona. I’d eenie meenie mini moe it.

96) Do you have any relatives in jail? Not currently ;D

97) Have you ever thrown up in the car? SO! When I was little I went to the fair and got a GIANT blue slushie and drank the whole thing and got sick. On the way home from the fair I kept telling my mom that I felt sick, but she wouldn’t listen… she just kept telling me that if I puked in her new car, she’d throttle me. Well, I did, and she did. It was fun.

98) Ever been on a plane? Nope! I’d probably end up crashing on the Lost island or get Incepted or something.

99) If the whole world were listening to you right now, what would you say? God, I have no idea.

100) Give me your top 5 favorite blogs on Tumblr.

Buffy.

1. The first character I first fell in love with: Giles

2. The character I never expected to love as much as I do now: Anya

3. The character everyone else loves that I don’t: Riley… ew.

4. The character I love that everyone else hates: The Mayor, also, sometimes Glory. They always seemed like they were having such fun. It made them charming in spite of their evil ways.

5. The character I used to love but don’t any longer: Xander; he just turned into a whiny guy after a while and I don’t feel like he matured a whole hell of a lot.

6. The character I would totally smooch: Angel not based on personality though :P just level of attractiveness. That feels very shallow.

7. The character I’d want to be like: Giles; he was always so level-headed and caring and intelligent, and he had depth that was both interesting and surprising. I think he was my favorite character, hands down.

8. The character I’d slap: Xander, like five times over again.

9. A pairing that I love: Spike/Dru, Angel/Buffy, Willow/Oz

10. A pairing that I despise: Buffy/Riley
