on the king's death, mortal lovin', and feeling colorful.
interview with cry of theblueofmyoblivion.
conducted by nicole delcore.
n: do you remember what you were doing when you heard michael jackson died? c: not really. :-/ I know I wasn’t doing anything that day. I’d never been a fan of him before his death (which is unfortunate because I love his music now) but I was shocked when I found out.
n: sexiest mythical creature? c: well, according to myth, vampires are supposed to be sexy, but I personally see them as pretentious. I’ll be honest with you, I like (mortal) humans best out of everything because we’re so fascinating. I mean, we all know we’re going to die and that alone makes it a fact nothing, not even friendships or love or anything last forever. and that hurts. but we go after that anyway for our own selfish reasons. everyone’s way to go about it is different, and I love that. I know that sounds like a stupid answer, but all the mythological creatures are immortal, right? the invincibility takes away your reason for being who you are. you don’t have to show your true colors if you’ll never die. so I’ll always pick mortals.
n: what do you think is the most important principle of psychology? c: I probably don’t have favorite principle of psychology. however, lately, I’ve been quite interested in the topic of mental disorders and psychoanalysis.
n: what's the scariest movie ever? c: The Unborn scared me the most out of any movie, but that’s honestly probably because the movie has an eerie focus on twins and I am a twin.
n: twins fascinate me. what's it like? c: it’s really not that special. my twin and I are separate people. however, you do get stereotyped. one time at Christmas, they gave my twin and me identical presents and I was so angry because everyone else got customized/personalized things to represent who they are, in a sense, and my twin and I got the same thing. I know that makes me sound ungrateful, but it’s a huge insult to your individuality. also, we don’t share the same friends or hobbies or even dress alike. the thing is, people (and the media, for some stupid reason) expect us to, and that’s what makes the life of a twin different. for me, anyway.
n: so... you can't read each other's minds? c: haha, no, not that I know of, but you know what’s pretty cool? one year during state testing at school, the proctor sat with the door open in my room and peeked into the room where my sister was, and she said we were moving/doing the same way/things at the exact same time, in perfect unison. we have also spoken in perfect unison without trying before on multiple occasions. but that’s the closest thing to twin-telepathy we get. still, pretty cool, I’d say.
n: how long have you known your best friend? c: I’ve known Lexxie since February 2011. I’ve known Brii since August 2010 but we never became best friends ‘til March 2011. and I’ve known LJ since July 2011. I’ve known Gomez since some time in seventh grade (about three years). I’ve known Kyle since April 2011. I’ve known Andrew since August 2011. that isn’t a long time to be best friends, I know, but they’re the first real friends I’ve never had and we don’t have lives other than each other. :-p I love them to death. they’re my favorite people. I’d give up Naruto, Johnny Craig, and even soda for them, which is saying a lot for me.
n: is blue the most metaphorical color? why? c: I don’t know if I’d say that, but blue is my favorite color for things to be. (however, I’d say black was my favorite color in general.) but, if you were to give it a metaphor, I like blue the most because it does represent sadness. I would call myself a sad person, I suppose. But I also just like blue because it’s a cool color.
then again, people DO describe themselves as “feeling blue.” I’ve never heard of anyone feeling pink or red.
