URL change

Halloween's over in Finland (went to see "Sinister" with a friend, pretty good actually) so that means an URL change. I also made some changes to my theme.

larssenbat → menacingwendy

Hope you had (or are having) an awesome Halloween!

5, 15, 41, 56, 59, 68, 82 aaand 100! :D

5) What does your latest text message from someone else say?"Ei mulla oikeestaan oo mitään toiveita. Yllätä mut. :-D"It's a reply from a friend. I asked her if there was something she'd like to have for her birthday and she said: "I don't really have any wishes. Surprise me. :-D"

15) Do you prefer to be behind the camera or in front of it?Behind. I don't like people taking photos of me when they don't know what they're doing. I'm definitely, definitely not a master photographer, not even nearly, but some people I know always manage to take absolute horrible photos. I don't mean just my face, I mean balancing the photo and keeping the horizon straight.41) What was the last book you read?Does a short story count? Because in that case it probably was The Adventure of Reigate Squire from The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes. I'm re-reading my Complete Sherlock Holmes edition, but not in any particular order. 

56) In a relationship?Oh no, I've never been in a relationship. :D 

68) What do you think is Satan's last name?Does he have one? :D I dunno, maybe it's Heikkilä. I had a teacher called Heikkilä and I think she may have been a spawn of Satan.

82) What is your favorite word?It's probably たんぽぽ (tanpopo). It's just really nice to say and it sounds super cute. It's Japanese for dandelion.

100) Give me your top 5 favorite blogs on Tumblr.I was hoping that if anyone sends me numbers they would pick this one. This one is really hard because I just don't pay attention to anything like this. D: If we're talking person wise, like people I actually know and talk to, then, in no particular order pyou, notfspurejam (Mark Gatiss love) and  larssenbatch (larssenbat for the Halloween, lots of Tom Hiddleston) will make it on the list. I suppose I could add seki0930, too. She's been nice enough to chat with me in Japanese for some days now. ^^ And her art is absolutely lovely. But it's only four.

If we're talking about art blogs or themed blogs then... Umm... This is really difficut. Umm, these five are probably my favourite Sherlock related blogs at least.

Tagged by Pyou

So, 10 questions answered and 10 tagged people, ok? ^^

1. Favourite book(s) + What book or books were special to you in your childhood? (What was particularly special or memorable about those books?)

20,000 Leagues Under the Sea by Jules Verne. It's just such a magical book for me. I love how the underwater world is described and the story of being pulled to a completely different world by chance...against the characters' will. It just appeals to me.

 I can't really think of any book that would have been special to me when I was a kid… Maybe Narnia. My mum used to read them as bedtime stories and they read them at my kindergarten, too. My mum also read a lot fairytales when I was small. My favourites were The White Cat and  The Snow Queen. And of course Sherlock Holmes as well. I think I was about 12 when I read them for the first time and fell in love with them.

2. Favourite TV show(s) & memorable/favourite moments in them

Well, currently they'd probably be Sherlock and Doctor Who. :D I love Granada Holmes very dearly as well. I can't think of any specific moment… I really appreciate all the canon and Rathbone and Granada and The Private Life references in Sherlock. I'd say Sherlock is just a huge chain of memorable moments.

3. Favourite movie(s) & memorable/favourite moments in them

The Star Wars saga.  \(◕o◕✿)/ *:･ﾟ✧*:･ﾟ✧

 I just love all of it. Episode I is the first I saw and the moment I knew I was in love was when Qui-Gon Force pushes the droids on Naboo. I don't know why that became a memorable moment to me, but it just did. Another one is when in ep. V we see Vader kneel and the huge hologram of the Emperor appears.

One of my favourite moments in the entire saga is when Luke steps out to see the suns setting. The music in that scene. (ﾉﾟ0ﾟ)ﾉ Queen Amidala's speech to the Senate in ep. I ranks high as well: "I was not elected to watch my people suffer and die while you discuss this invasion in a committee!"

4. Favourite fictional character(s) and/or pairing(s)

Anakin Skywalker/Darth Vader. He's such a complex character, who's been through a lot shit in his life with so many expectations put on his shoulders since young age. And I think a lot of purist fans fail to see this. He and Padmé are among my favourite pairings. What can I say, I love tragedy. (ノ￣△￣)ノ♥

Sherlock Holmes. But I've never seriously been pairing him to anyone. I've never felt it'd be something he'd do. But I do like johnlock. And jimlock because fuck yeah twisted relationships! (｀▽´) That's also why I'm pairing Krad and Satoshi from D·N·Angel.

5. Where would you like to live and why

UK! I've lived in Edinburgh for a month, but I'd like to live in this country longer. Maybe not in Edinburgh, though. London of course would be a dream come true.  (￣▽￣) 

I could live more in Japan, too. I'm currently in Tokyo, but I feel more at home in Yokohama. Yokohama because that's where I spent my exchange year. London because I've liked it since I was a kid. My aunt lives there, among with many fictional characters. 

6. What would you like to do for living

Sit in my room with a laptop..? |_・) Ah, I've been wanting to work at an airport since I was a kid. But I can't do it in Finland. ¬_¬

7. If you would fall through crack in time into your own personal past, what would you do?

I'd try not to interfere with my past self's life. I suppose I'd just explore the world of that time with new eyes and try to find a way to get back to my own time.

8. Do you believe in anything supernatural?

No, not really. There are already plenty of wonderful things in the world without needing to hang onto something that probably doesn't exist. And I believe that some supernatural phenomenas, if they exist, are simply natural things that just haven't been fully explained by science yet, but will be explained in the future. If that makes any sense.

9. Favourite quote(s)

You don't have a soul. You are a soul. You have a body. - C.S. Lewis

Nowadays people know the price of everything and the value of nothing. - Oscar Wilde

Science speaks of facts without having absolute certainty. Religion speaks of absolute certainty without having facts.

And some fandomy ones:

死は平等だ。(Death is equal.) - from Death Note

The brightest light casts the darkest shadow. - from Star Wars ep. III novelisation.

10. Favourite music

I don't really have any favourite genre of music. I listen to all sorts of stuff.

Well, that was fun. (∩_∩) Thanks Pyou!
