rule one: always post the rules
rule two: answer the questions the person who tagged you asked and write 11 new ones
rule three: tag 11 people and link them to the post
1. if you could pick a name for yourself that isn’t the name your name-givers gave you, what would it be? (bonus question: would you like it better than the name you were assigned at birth?)
→ I've always liked the name Alexandra, and I think I would like it if it replaced one of my middle names. I don't think I could live with my first name being anything other than it is. Even if people keep misspelling/mispronouncing it.
2. you can only watch three tv shows for the rest of your life: what are they?
→ Leverage. Leverage S6. Leverage TV movies? LEVERAGE GDI. Battlestar Galactica. Avatar: The Last Airbender.
3. what would be your absolute dream job? (and no, watching tv and/or tumblring for money doesn’t count.)
→ Inventing hella cool shit, like something that came out of a scifi novel. Not the one that brought about Armageddon though, no.
4. are you rooting for anyone in the football worldcup, and if so, who?
→ Lol no. I'm so oblivious to the worldcup. I didn't even know it was about football, all I knew was there was some international sports event happening--and Brazil had some amazing protest movements.
5. have you ever cosplayed, or wanted to?
→ Not really. I think cosplaying would make me even more self-conscious than I already am (unless I went as a giant Gameboy or something). But I do want to be, like, a photographer for a cosplayer. :D
6. name all the places you’ve lived so far!
→ My house, my college dormitories, this apartment. :p All in the Philippines.
7. what is your hogwarts house?
→ Ravenclaw, but I'd probably hang around the Slytherin table every chance I could get.
8. how do you feel about scifi?
→ Light of my life. Only the most relevant genre ever. Also AUs and crossovers and time travel are a massive turn on for me, and scifi shows fills that void quite nicely. Books-wise, they're the most interesting things I've ever read.
9. have you ever won anything?
→ Maybe like a hundred pesos from some local lottery. *squints* Oh, our undergraduate thesis project won best paper. :)
10. when was the last time you peed outside / behind a bush? (asking the hard questions here.)
→ NEVER. I ALWAYS TRY (and succeed?) TO HOLD IT IN.
11. blondes, brunettes or redheads?
→ if female, redhead; else if male, brunette.
