1. What is your greatest skill and how do you intend to use it to benefit not only yourself but others as well?
Answer: Well, my greatest skill is drawing, and first and foremost I'd like to make a career out of it...  As for benefitting others, I consider art to be a conversation between the creator and the consumer (not strictly in the business sense), so I'd like to communicate with people that need to hear the things I'm saying. (I GUESS WHAT I'M TRYING TO SAY IS THAT I WANT TO BE THE LADY GAGA OF DRAWING, GUYS) I want to give people a sense of being understood, even if it's only one person, even if it's only with one picture.

2. What are three questions that you wish you knew the answer to?
Answer: WHAT... is your name?
              WHAT... is your quest?
              WHAT... is the air speed velocity of an unladen swallow?
Serious questions are not appearing in my brain right now.
     
3. What has been your most rewarding experience so far?
Answereing born?

4. What is something simple that makes you happy.
Answer: Watching birds hop around on land. I swear, they're so graceful when up in the air, but when on the ground they just spring up and down like pebbles skipping over water and it's beautifully quirky.

5. What is your biggest pet peeve.
Answer: Hmm, not sure if it's my biggest, but... when people are having trouble comprehending something or executing something and say something along the lines of, "This is stupid. I don't get it."  ...You don't get it and it's stupid? Well that's just some fine and dandy logic there. I guess it's the idea of hating something you don't understand because you don't understand it.

6. What is something that you find beautiful that many others would think unconventional?
Answer: Stains. There was a long, gorgeous stain on the sidewalk outside my dorm last month or so, with peaks and valley and curled edges and drips and--and I teared up walking along side it. I love how stains dry, how as the moisture sinks into whatever surface it's on, it washes out in places and creates subtle gradations, and at the same time leaves outlines. It ends up looking like a controlled chaos.

(I just have so many feelings about stains. )

7. What is the most delicious meal you have ever eaten?
Answer: I'm not sure, but it must have involved either nacho cheese, gravy, or ketchup. And if I ever consumed foods involving all three of those things in one sitting, my mind must have been numbed and blanked by sheer pleasure.

8. What is one thing that you wish you could change about yourself?
Answer: Wishing I could change things about myself. No, hmm... I'm trying to pick a vice of mine that hasn't translated to a virtue under certain situations. I suppose my insecurity, even though there are some things I've restrained myself from doing that have ended up for the best. I wish I could open myself up more and not rattle around like I'm trapped in my own body, although I do love getting lost in reveries... I guess I would just like a little more say in the nature of my crazy.

9. What is the most important trait a friend must have?
Answer: BEING SAYA. Lawlz. I suppose... open-mindedness? A by-product of which is acceptance, and it also leads to great adventures!

10. Do you believe in the supernatural?
Answer: Why, yes. I believe in ghosts, although not in most "ghost photographs" and "ghost footage" because I have a hard time believing ghosts reveal themselves so easily. I don't necessarily believe ghosts to be "spiiiiiiirits of thoooose who have noooot yeeet paaaassed ooooon OOOOOOH" but the imprint a person has left on a place, on an object, or on another person. A sort of lingering energy. As for other supernatural things, like, oh, I don't know, psychic abilities? I believe in those as well.  I believe everything in existence is connected, and that with enough concentration and by sheer law of averages, a person is bound to catch on to at least one of those relationships and be able to predict things from there. Telekinesis is pretty much wishful thinking though.

Ah, well that was... introspective! Time for my own questions:

1)What is your favorite kind of weather? Be as gratutitously specific as possible.
2)What do you believe in more strongly, the bond between you and the family you were born into, or the bond between you and the people you choose to surround yourself with?
3)What is your favorite condiment?
4)What is your favorite hair-eye color combination?
5)What is your favorite word?
6)Do you like pina coladas, and/or getting caught in the rain?
7)What would the absolutely most creepy thing someone could ask you?
8)What is/was your favorite subject in school?
9)Have you ever read/watched/played something you really loved while reading/watching/playing it only to completely forget what it was about immediately after you read/watched/played it?
10)Would you please look to your left and blurt out the first color you see?

And I'm tagging...


Though I won't go pestering you. If THINE EYESSSSS should happen to come upon this journal, then you will know. You will KNOW.
