I've been tagged!

I was tagged by somanythingstobeobsessedwith, a fabulous blog that everyone should check out (and follow)!

1. Do you consider yourself an introvert or an extrovert?

I am very much an introvert. Half the time, I don't even feel like having conversations in my own head, let alone with other people. If you need me, then I'll be there for you, but it's not in my nature to be outgoing. I'd much rather curl up in my own subconscious.

2. What qualities do you appreciate most in a friend?

Well, given how very bad I am at socializing (see answer to Question 1), I really appreciate my friends who don't mind if a few months go by without talking. When we do talk, we're able to catch up and realize that we all have our own lives going on, but infrequent contact doesn't diminish the strength of our bond.

3. Would you want to live in a fictional world? If so, would it be one of your own creation, or one from a book/film/tv show etc?

I would love to live in a world that it just a bit more fantastical than ours. I always say that I'm one of those people who, if presented with "Vampires/demons/magic/any supernatural thing you can think of is real," my reaction would be, "Awesome. Thought so." 

4. Do you think that 8-year-old you would have liked the person you are now?

I think eight-year-old me didn't like anyone very much, but if she saw me now, she would probably be a bit relieved. I've turned out relatively cool, and my life is coming together somewhat.

5. Who’s your favourite comedy character and why?

Old Gregg. I have a connection to him- I've never been able to see him as the villain he's sometimes painted out to be, and definitely not as the superficial meme that non-Booshlr's know him in reference to. He just wants to be loved, and he wants to share his passions with someone equally as passionate. And he's into taxidermy, which, hey, me too (not Curly Jefferson, so much).

6. Do you have any interests or passions that people around you just don’t get?

Um, again, see answer above. Let's just say that my taxidermy collection isn't limited to antlers and forest creatures. I've got a two-headed dove (rogue taxidermy, but still beautiful), a flying squirrel, a couple of bats...and a huge wishlist. 

Apart from that, my aesthetic in general can be a bit off-putting to some people, I suppose, but it makes me happy, and really, it isn't all that outlandish.

7. What’s your favourite comfort food?

Pasta, usually, with tons of parmesan.

8. Name three films you think everybody should watch at least once in their life.

The Nightmare Before Christmas

Love Actually

Pan's Labyrinth

*Judge if you want, they are all quality.

9. What’s your oldest piece of clothing, the one you know you should throw away but can’t bring yourself to?

I've got this big, bulky neon pink cardigan from the mid-90's that is hideous, but I still wear it to death.

10. Is there a band or a comedian that you really want to see live but never had a chance to?

The Mighty Boosh- forever and always

11. How many languages can you speak, and what are they?

I'm only fluent in English- I've tried learning Spanish and Italian, and while I can fumble my way through those while reading, my conversational skills are nonexistent.

And my questions are:

1. If you had to pick a novel to live in, what would it be?

2. What's your favorite holiday tradition?

3. OTP? NOTP?

4. Do you read/write fanfiction?

5. How would you describe your fashion sense?

6. Do you prefer real life or fantasy?

7. If you had to cook one dish to impress someone, what would it be?

8. What's your favorite episode of your favorite TV show?

9. What's the best thing someone has said to you lately?

10. What are you looking forward to most right now?

11. Do you have a celebrity doppelganger?

Raspberry filled donuts contain fruit, so they're practically a health food really.

I agree completely! It's almost healthy enough to justify my smoking habit 8D

ohmygod this reminds me of that scene in winnie the pooh with the heffalumps and woozles that keep morphing and their trunks turn into trumpets and they turn into watering cans....terrifying..... but nice drawing =)

Oh my god! I can totally see it! Also, thank you! My elephant looks suspiciously humanoid, because I can't actually draw elephants. I'm hoping the tattoo artist will be able to make the spokes chrome somehow.

Were they a dick 2 years ago too or is that a new development?

I hardly actually talked to them then either. Like we vaguely know each other because everyone went to the same place to smoke.

for science.

It's not science unless you write it down. I'll keep a journal.
