tea_and_inkI've been tagged and sort of tagged by roguemouse into this meme thing.
So here, for all the inquisitive minds wanting to know more about me
Rules: List 5 things about yourself not everyone knows, and tag 5 others to do the same. If you get tagged, you should comment with a link to your answers.
1. My laptop's name is Serenity (yes, I do have a fetish with naming things) and sometimes I like to pretend to be Capt. Mal Reynolds... ::shifty eyes::
2. The first "big" book I ever read whole was Arabian Nights.
3. I'm half Italian and half Irish.
4. My favorite color is green.
5. I used to play piano, but that was two geological ages ago. Now I don't remember a G.
That was easy!

Seven things I want to do before I die:
1. Go to New Zealand
2. Learn German
3. Write a book
4. Road trip across... somewhere.
5. Finish a goddamned Big Mac!
6. Bungee-jumping
7. Visit Ireland (every single trip I ever planned that featured Ireland as a destination has collapsed mightily. I'm starting to think the universe doesn't want me there, but guess what, universe? you may be bigger than me, but I am that much more stubborn!)
Seven things I cannot do:
1. Stand on my hands
2. Play guitar (Lord knows I've tried)
3. Stay still
4. Cross my eyes
5. Not over-analyze situations
6. Have sweet drinks. I just can't do it, its beyond me.
7. Remember any phone number (I swear I have to think to come up with my cell's)
Seven things that attract me to both a boy and a girl:
1. Their eyes. I like people that look at me in the eye.
2. Snark. I thrive on it.
3. Intelligence. I've been known to date people just for their brains. Never lasted though, we usually ended up being just friends. But still, is an important quality for me.
4. Smile. I like a broad smile, those are nice.
5. Humbleness. I can't stand high-and-mighty fools. I just can't. If you're talented at what you do, or if you're particularly smart or anything, don't come rubbing it on my nose, I'll surely notice it on my own. Dangling it in front of my face is a sure way to get me to turn away. So humbleness (and/or shyness too) is highly valuated.
6. Shoulders (this applies to boys alone, I mind much for women's shoulders) I like broad shoulders, I don't know why, I just do.
7. That we both share some interest. Any kind of interest.
Note: all the qualities listed above come in handy in any kind of relationship I might establish with people. None of them, with the exception of number 6, is entitled to romantic purposes exclusevely, since I took women in consideration as well. There.
Seven things that I say most often:
1. Huh.
2. Hehe (with different inflections. Its actually very versatile)
3. Jesus H. Christ, Jared!
4. Good God (with a very marked annoyed tone)
5. Oh, really?
6. Shoot!
7. Dude (damn Spn! I was cured, and then Sam and Dean happened...)
Seven books I love to read:
1. The Lord of the Rings Trilogy
2. Blood and Gold by Anne Rice (dude, Marius!)
3. Children of Dune by Frank Herbert.
4. Cien Años de Soledad by Gabriel García Márquez (I'm almost positive that this is my absolutely most favorite book)
5. To Kill a Mockingbird by Harper Lee.
6. The Dumas Club by Arturo Pérez Reverte
7. Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban by J.K. Rowling
Seven movies I could watch over and over again:
1. Before Sunset.
2. Never Ending Story I
3. The Boondock Saints
4. Trainspotting
5. The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers
6. Wicker Park
7. The Godfather

Date: 2007-04-14 01:05 pm (UTC)The whole 'dating because of intelligence' thing?Totally the same here. Actually, that's the way I 'acquired' most of my males friends - first we were friends, then we dated, then broke up, to - in the end - become even better friends... That's just a bit of Mouse-logic for you ^_^
DUDE! *shakes fist at Sam and Dean*
And seriously, are you reading my mind or something?
'Blood and Gold' is what I'm reading at the hospital now! (cause besides being an awesome book, it's B-I-G! :D). And after I finish reading, it's probably "back to basics", meaning 'The Interview With The Vampire' (for the... gazilionth time). And maybe, if they keep me 'caged' long enough, I'll even get to reading the whole Mayfair Witches saga *gasps*
Anyway's... I loved your anwers and I miss you terribly. Hold on in there, sweetie! *snuggles*
hugs :*
PS. Naming things... yeah *pretends to be innocent*
Serenity? Meet Christian... as is: Christian Bale *snorts* That's my laptop's name ^_^
As for other 'things', my minature DVD-player is called Ewan (after Ewan McGregor) and my MP3 player goes by the name Teddy or Theodore (after Christian Bale's character from the movie 'Little Women')...
So... you were saying? ^_^
