What’s a new year’s resolution of yours?
I have come up with two so far and one is to not hate anything or anyone because hating is almost never constructive I think, it's way better to keep a positive outlook if you can. And the other one is to floss.
Do you think you’ll actually keep it?
I will certainly try on the first one. I hate flossing but now I have an obligation to myself to do it so maybe I actually will. I did it yesterday so I'm on the right track~
Sherlock is really the only one I'm super into. I also like the Avengers and Star Trek but I don't really obsess about either.
What’s the last thing that made you smile?
A story my friend told about his friend drunkenly and unsuccessfully trying to seduce him
Where’s your favorite place that you’ve been? (could be a city, or just a location in your town)
I love Chicago so much. The University for the most part, but the city itself is also gorgeous.
Do you play any instruments? If so, what?
I play piano, guitar, and I used to play clarinet but mostly not really on that one
What’s a story (book, movie, song, etc.) that’s altered your perception of life?
The Fault in our Stars is the biggest one, I think. Gus's outlook on the world reminded me a lot, almost too much, of myself, and it made me think maybe I should change the way I look at some things. I mean to, but it's hard.
What are your plans for the day?
submit my UChicago app and sleep :)
favorite is hard to choose. There are a lot that I really enjoy, so here's a couple.
If the stars should appear but one night every thousand years how man would marvel and stare. -Ralph Waldo Emerson
I have absolutely no idea what we're doing here, or what I'm doing here, or what this place is about, but I am determined to enjoy myself! -Mrs. Peacock from Clue
Maybe our favorite quotations say more about us than about the stories and people we're quoting. -John Green
What’s the last thing you printed out?
uhm my brother used my computer to print a shipping label for something, does that count?
Tell me something you’ve been excited about recently.
um the rest of Sherlock season 3
1. if you could describe 2014 as a certain year for you, what would you call it? (for example, 2014 is my “clean slate” year)
Endings and beginnings. A lot of both. What with the whole "going away for college" thing. Or my "bittersweet" year, I think.
2. what is one little thing that made you happy today?
A friend that I really enjoy talking to messaged me :)
3. something you learned about yourself last year?
I don't know as much about life as I think I do.
4. think of the last person you talked to—give one fact about them.
Talked to online: He smells like rosemary.
Talked to in real life: She ships Sholly, as I learned about 20 minutes ago. I don't think she knows what shipping is, but I know she ships it.
5. name something (like a book or movie) that altered your view of life.
6. what is one thing you are looking forward to right now?
rose what are you doing you're just stealing questions from the thingy
7. what was the last movie you watched? what did you think of it?
Uhh, some horror movie called like the Haunting in Connecticut 2 or something along those lines. Didn't care for the movie so much, considering it was like 4 am and I kept falling asleep periodically through it. Wasn't very scary either. I did enjoy the company though.
8. go into your music player and click shuffle. write your favorite lyrics from the song that was randomly selected.
"Where I come from, we believe all sorts of things that aren't true. We call it 'history.'" <3
9. if you could be named something else, what would pick? what name would you pick for yourself if you were the opposite gender?
I kind of like Scarlet, but it's a bit pretentious. I'd go with Carmen, probably, mostly just because I really like the Lana Del Rey song right now. If I was a guy, I might go with Finn or Sebastian.
10. share a story of a recent success or great thing that has happened to you.
I had a good time at New Year's, caught up with some old friends and made a couple of new ones. I dunno if that's necessarily great, but it was pretty good.
11. what’s one quote that makes you feel better/motivates you?
A quote from Nathan Fillion on how to be successful as an actor: "Do things that scare you. Fail constantly."
1. What made you get up this morning?
2. What's the last thing you ate?
3. What would you do if you could pause time?
4. When's the last time you danced?
5. Tell us a personal story of revenge.
9. When's the last time you screamed?
10. What shampoo do you use?
11. Do you have any jewelry you wear all the time? What's the story behind it?
