My Answers:

You

How mature do you think you are?
Slightly more than average I guess. Sometimes I wouldn't say that.

Would you be friends with you?
If you find another martian anywhere, let me know.

Do you know anyone else like you?
^^ My mother.

Have you done something you were proud of?
I proved to myself that I can be a great manager, I survived a lot of crap, and I'm usually a nice person.

Have you done something you regretted?
Yes, but I try to fix them and I try very hard to limit the amount of them I do. They usually either involve hurting someone I care about or being a fool again.

What word(s) would you use to describe yourself?
Weird, idealist, an anachronism.


Experiences

What's the most exciting thing you've done?
Stood on the mile-high bridge on Grandfather Mountain, gone in Linville caverns and standing over a bottomless pit(in Linville caverns).

Have you ever been obsessed with anything?
Fun things, I get obsessed with things all of the time. Right now: Buffy and Angel. I get obsessed with bad things now and then too, but probably don't need to go into those here.

Have you ever thought you were crazy? Why?
Yes, because I am so different from others. Because my anxiety got so bad that I felt like I couldn't control myself anymore.

Have you lost someone close to you?
My father, my grandmother and my grandfather.

Have you had/raised a child?
No, but I really want to. If I had a decent living, I'd have had one four years ago- or adopted.

Art

Do you like paintings?
Yes, I've studied them extensively.

Favorite painter?
Matisse, fauvists.

Do you like sculpture?
It's okay, but not my favorite.

Favorite sculptor?
Michaelangelo?

Favorite music?
Classic rock, alternative, too much to mention...

Favorite guitarist?
David Gilmoure and Slash

Favorite singer(s)?
For their voices, Jeff Buckley and Annie Lennox.

Favorite movie?
Hero's journeys, indie films, foreign films, inspiring tales.

Favorite actor(ess)?
Russell Crowe, Agnes Moorehead

Favorite director?
Orson Welles

Favorite book?
Catch-22 by Joseph Heller, The Martian Chronicles by Ray Bradbury, Rebecca by Daphne DuMaurier and The Magnificent Ambersons by Booth Tarkington.

Favorite author?
Tennessee Williams, Ray Bradbury, John Steinbeck.

Love

Have you ever been in love?
Yes.

Have you had your heart broken?
All the time.

Do you believe in love?
In loving a person, very much. In romantic love, it's a rarity.

What would you like your perfect relationship to be like?
A passionate, best friend, who will be my hero and will let me be his. Joanne Woodward and Paul Newman.

Hate

Have you ever hated anyone?
Not very often. Truly hated to the point that the sight of them enraged me? One and I swear he's the devil.

Do you act on your hate?
Most of the time I am able to keep from doing it because I don't have to deal with them much. It has been really hard for me on one occasion.

What thing do you hate the most?
The only thing I hate: deliberate cruelty.

Existence

If you could be anything, what would it be?
A successful business owner or a psychiatrist.

If you could be anyone, who would it be?
Me, five years ago.

Why are we here?
I debate many thoughts: We're here because we're here(Twilight Zone)- that one depresses me, we have a soul(s) and we use these bodies to exercise those souls and to learn as much as we can. The finer details will take mankind a much longer time to determine.

Do you believe in ghosts?
I feel like I have been "touched" by people who are no longer here. Perhaps it's their spirit. I don't know if I believe in technical ghosts or not.

Do you believe in heaven or hell?
I believe they are both metaphors for states we create for ourselves in our lives; no more, no less.

Do you believe in reincarnation?
I don't know. People have made some pretty good arguments and there are more people in this world who believe it than don't. But how can we know until it is proven?

Do you believe in esp, telepathy, psychokinesis, etc?
Telepathy, yes. The power of the mind to affect matter, yes.

Do we have a soul?
I wish I knew. It feels like we must. But again we know so little.

Are we essentially good or bad?
I think we have even chances of being either one and I think it's supposed to be that way. What I would like to know is why so many seem to choose to be bad?

Once again, I'm boring, so I don't do many exciting things. Umm, I went to the Olympics in 2002 when they came to Utah. Umm, yeah, I'm boring.

Not really.

I don't have one, I guess.

Felicia Day, Summer Glau, Rose McGowan, Jake Gyllenhaal.

Do you believe in reincarnation?
No.

Do we have a soul?
Depends on what you mean by "soul".

Are we essentially good or bad?
Neither. We just are.

[Iceeh★]

Would you be friends with you?
Probably, yeah.

Do you know anyone else like you?
Kinda sorta, but no twins.

Have you done something you were proud of?
Mhmm! My actions worth priding and worth regretting are about equal, actually.

Have you done something you regretted?
Have I ever! I try my best to forget things quickly, but, ah, it doesn't tend to work.

What word(s) would you use to describe yourself?
Hyperactive, passionate, hiding


Experiences

What's the most exciting thing you've done?
I uh... I guess hiking around Denali is pretty exciting? I'm not really a risk taker, so I have nothing fun to put here.

Have you ever been obsessed with anything?
Yes oh god yes, I'm sure many people here can attest to my unlimited obsessions.

Have you ever thought you were crazy? Why?
All the time. My mind is a scary, scary place and I do not like it.

Have you lost someone close to you?
My grandma and a childhood friend.

Have you had/raised a child?
No, but I take care of my two little siblings (5 & 7) quite a lot, if that counts at all.

Art

Do you like paintings?
Sure do!

Favorite painter?
I'm not an art buff, so I couldn't name any obscure ones off the top of my head, but I guess I'll go with a classic and say Leonardo Da Vinci.

Do you like sculpture?
I like pretty things!

Favorite sculptor?
One who makes pretty things? D:

Favorite music?
I like alternative and folk a lot.

Favorite guitarist?
Mmm I like Tim Ferrel (Ludo) and Sam Beam (Iron & Wine)!

Favorite singer?
It fluctuates a lot, but Sarah McLachlan has been up there since before I can recall.

Favorite movie?
Phantom of the Opera!

Favorite actor(ess)?
Due to my current House obsession, I'm gonna have to go with Hugh Laurie for favorite actor. (ASH is totally tied with him, though!) Annnd for actress, it's gotta be either Tina Fey, Lea Michele, or Emma Caulfield.

Favorite director?
The Jossmeister!

Favorite book?
This is quite a toughie... either Elsewhere by Gabrielle Zevin or The Book Thief by Markus Zusak.

Favorite author?
Hmm, I like Karin Slaughter a lot, also Ray Bradbury and, of course, J.K. Rowling!

Love

Have you ever been in love?
Yeah.

Have you had your heart broken?
Not yet... D:

Do you believe in love?
Of course!

What would you like your perfect relationship to be like?
Kinda what I have, except official and with no pesky distance.

Hate

Have you ever hated anyone?
I can't say I've full on hated anyone, but I do have pretty strong dislike for some people.

Do you act on your hate?
No. Not to say that I haven't been tempted, though...

What thing do you hate the most?
I don't like it when people kill other people just because they disagree on something. It seems useless and life-wastey.

Existence

If you could be anything, what would it be?
Either some sort of physician or a successful comic book artist. Two different extremes, I know. Or a cat! It'd be fun to be a cat.

If you could be anyone, who would it be?
Y'know, I'm pretty content with being myself.

Why are we here?
I don't know... so we can procreate?

Do you believe in ghosts?
I think so.

Do you believe in heaven or hell?
Not the traditional Christian versions, but I *think* I believe in some sort of an afterlife where our actions here determine what happens when we die. But the scientific part of my brain keeps saying that when we die, the electricity goes away, and we simply don't exist anymore. I really hope there's an afterlife, though. I don't want to not exist.

Do you believe in reincarnation?
My favorite version of the afterlife!

Do you believe in esp, telepathy, psychokinesis, etc?
To a point, yeah.

Do we have a soul?
Mmm, well, there's something that makes us who we are, even if that something is just chemicals and electricity bouncing around.

Are we essentially good or bad?
I think humanity has good intentions, but it all gets dragged down and covered up by the bad. I could be wrong, though, maybe we're all evil.

(PS: Oh dear lord, I'm the most pathetic 16-going-on-17 year old ever, and now I have that song stuck in my head. -wipes glasses-)

[willowsummers]

Eric/Freddy hehe why do you think you're boring? And I totally agree about the Buffy board. We are all obsessed here.

Iceeh, I love that you said your mind is a scary place. I feel like mine is a lot too. I also agree with a lot of what you said.

[Jsebold87]

You

How mature do you think you are?

Mature enough, I've been often told I was mature for my age, which I've been told for years. I'm not boring by any means, I know how to draw the line between being boring, and having fun.

Would you be friends with you?

I think so

Do you know anyone else like you?

My mom and I are quite alike.

Have you done something you were proud of?

I'm proud of my art at times. I can be quite hard on myself in that area, so it's always an achievement when I feel proud of something I made.

Have you done something you regretted?

Some things I do regret, I can be quite shy, and sometimes I really get mad at myself for not being more outgoing. But on the whole, I think experience makes you who you are, so I wouldn't change anything drastic.

What word(s) would you use to describe yourself?

Caring, funny, shy, emotional, artistic

Experiences

What's the most exciting thing you've done?

Hmmm.... I don't like to be out of my comfort zone, so I really can't think of anything. One thing that does stick with me though is about 10 years ago me and my mom went to driving to go see if we could see a tornado that was reported to be just outside our city, we did end up seeing it come about half-way down, which was quite an amazing site. I'd love to see something like that again sometime (just not tearing up my house, lol).

Have you ever been obsessed with anything?

Yeah, I can be a bit over obsessive, lol. First obsession ever was Hanson. As I got into my teenage years then it was the Backstreet Boys & NSYNC. Then came my obsession for Buffy. I also had a HUGE obsession with Harry Potter. I was one of those geeks who stood in line at midnight to get the book. I also have an obsession with Ancient Egyptian stuff.

Have you ever thought you were crazy? Why?

No, can't say I have.

Have you lost someone close to you?

Too many times. When I was almost 2 years old my real mother passed away. My Grandpa died 10 years ago on Christmas, I was the last person who talked to him, it hit me extremely hard. My 17 year old cousin died about 2 years after he died in a car accident. And most recently my uncle died last January. I've had to deal with it way too much.

Have you had/raised a child?

No.

Art

Do you like paintings?

Sure

Favorite painter?

Um... Don't really have one. I don't necessarily have a favorite, although I do like a lot of Da Vinci's works.

Do you like sculpture?

Yeah it's okay.

Favorite sculptor?

Really have no idea of where to begin with that.

Favorite music?

Rock & Pop

Favorite guitarist?

Don't really have one.

Favorite singer?

It changes a lot, right now I've been really enjoying Lady GaGa, and the lead singer of Nickelback.

Favorite movie?

Lord of the Rings or Jurassic Park

Favorite actor(ess)?

Eliza Dushku, Hugh Jackman, and Sarah Michelle Gellar.

Favorite director?

Peter Jackson

Favorite book?

The Girl Who Loved Tom Gordon by Stephen King.

Favorite author?

Stephen King, J.K. Rowling & J.R.R. Tolkein.

Love

Have you ever been in love?

No

Have you had your heart broken?

No

Do you believe in love?

Yes I do, I hope I find it someday.

What would you like your perfect relationship to be like?

Someone who is my best friend, has very similiar interests, and loves me for who I am, doesn't try to change who I am.

Hate

Have you ever hated anyone?

I wouldn't say hate, but I've had dislikes in the past.

Do you act on your hate?

No, I try not to, unless it really gets on my nerves.

What thing do you hate the most?

People who pretend to be something they're not.

Existence

If you could be anything, what would it be?

a writer

If you could be anyone, who would it be?

I'd rather be myself

Why are we here?

God's amusement? lol, seriously, I think we each need to have our own different experiences, and try to live our lives the best to our abilities.

Do you believe in ghosts?

Yes I do. I've had several personal experiences, that makes me believe even stronger in it.

Do you believe in heaven or hell?

I believe in both, yes. I don't believe that this is it for us, there has to be more out there for us when we die. I don't believe that we just cease to exist.

Do you believe in reincarnation?

No, not really.

Do you believe in esp, telepathy, psychokinesis, etc?

To some extent, yes. There is a lot that we don't know about the human brain, and what it can do. There are instances in my life where I think of something that will happen, and it does end up happening. My mom also has things like that happen with her as well. It kind of freaks a person out when it does come true, most people don't believe in it, but I believe it's possible.

Do we have a soul?

Yes we do.

Are we essentially good or bad?

I think humans are essentially good, but you really have to wonder what the hell is going on with the world the way it is right now.

[willowsummers]

Thanks Jessica Summers I used to be obsessed with Hanson too. I still follow them somewhat because there's usually always at least one song on their albums that I really NEED to hear.

Eric/Freddy hehe why do you think you're boring?

Uhh, my ideal day is making homemade pretzels and watching 30 Rock on DVD, all of which I've seen a million times. I'm not exactly the most exciting person on the planet.

[willowsummers]

Well, by other people's standards, I probably am too. I spend most of my time on the computer or watching movies but, hey, I love it. So, to me, not boring.

Yes

Yes

What would you like your perfect relationship to be like?
I already have my perfect relationship, it is having a real genuine honest man who loves and adores me and treats me like a princess, who I also love and adore. He takes care of me but also teaches me how to be strong and independant and to believe in myself as much as he believes in me. He is the one that I want to wake each morning with and fall asleep each night with, each day him being as beautiful and strong as the day before, and him thinking the same about me. To be balanced and equal in everything. He is my world and I am his. That is my idea of perfection and I am lucky enough to have it every minute of every day.

Not in practice but sometimes I wish I could.

[willowsummers]

Thanks whitecandy. I can be a real big fool, I'm telling you. Don't normally attribute it to how mature I am. Maybe I should.

Compassionate (sometimes to a fault), loyal, driven, shy and introverted at times.

Many, many times. lol.

[elenasaur]

You

How mature do you think you are?
More than I want to be at times.

Would you be friends with you?
Depends on the day.

My best friend is a lot like me.

Have you done something you were proud of?
I don't have a list of accomplishments that I can rattle off, but I have a few paintings that I'm really proud of.

Have you done something you regretted?
Yeah. Well, a lot of it has just entailed awkward conversation-stopping moments. My bigger regrets are things I haven't done.

What word(s) would you use to describe yourself?
Shy, indecisive... bad conversationalist. I don't really know.

Experiences

What's the most exciting thing you've done?
Eh.. Well. I would say the trip to Hawaii I took with my high school band. It wasn't constant excitement or anything, but just looking back, we did so many ridiculous things that week.

Have you ever been obsessed with anything?
Beyond the myriad of television and book series, not really.

Have you ever thought you were crazy? Why?
On occasion. Nothing really serious, but I guess I just start things about that statistic that says 1 in 3 people could have a diagnosable mental illness, and I could be that 1/3.

Have you lost someone close to you?
Yeah. Not super-close-end-of-the-world or anything, but yes.

Have you had/raised a child?
Nope. Don't plan to for more than ten years.

Art

Do you like paintings?
Yes.

Favorite painter?
Currently, Malcolm Liepke. Probably no one knows him, so my favorite famous painter is either Monet or Van Gogh.

Do you like sculpture?
Not particularly

Favorite sculptor?
No clue.

Favorite music?
Tie between Modest Mouse and the Killers

Favorite guitarist?
Not sure.

Favorite singer?
Florence [and the Machine]

Favorite movie?
Forrest Gump. Or maybe Fight Club.

Favorite actor(ess)?
I love Joaquin Phoenix and Julia Roberts

Favorite director?
Joss Whedon (duh.)

Favorite book?
Um.. Hard to choose, but Poisonwood Bible by Barbara Kingsolver

Favorite author?
Janet Evanovich (She's a guilty pleasure, but other than my favorite author from when I was younger, Tamora Pierce, Evanovich is the only one with so many books that I really like)

Love

Have you ever been in love?
Nope.

Have you had your heart broken?
Again, no.

Do you believe in love?
Yes. It's love, not Santa Claus.

What would you like your perfect relationship to be like?
I feel like having a checklist for a relationship is not the way to find a good one.

Hate

Have you ever hated anyone?
Not legitimate, I-hope-you-die hate.

Do you act on your hate?
No, I generally try to be polite.

What thing do you hate the most?
Arrogance... Or clinginess. I'm thinking of the two people I dislike the most, and that's what I hate about both of them

Existence

If you could be anything, what would it be?
A tree. Or maybe a bird. I don't have an explanation.

If you could be anyone, who would it be?
I don't think I would want to be anyone else. Not that I'm 100% happy with me or anything. I just think of it how Dr. Saunders didn't want to give up existing, even though it wasn't completely her body.

Why are we here?
I don't know. I don't think it even matters. We are here, so make the most of it.

Do you believe in ghosts?
I don't want to, and I haven't seen anything that would make me believe in them, but I kind of do.

Do you believe in heaven or hell?
I don't believe in hell, or at least I don't believe that anyone would really do something bad enough to go to hell. Heaven, well it just seems like an incomprehensible concept. I'd like it to exist, but I can't imagine it.

Do you believe in reincarnation?
Not really, but I do believe in an afterlife, but not totally in heaven and hell, so I haven't completely taken reincarnation out of my list of possibilities.

Do you believe in esp, telepathy, psychokinesis, etc?
Kind of, but not really. I try to be skeptical of everything since I'm really a gullible person.

Do we have a soul?
Yes. I'm not okay with the idea that science can explain everything away, and every thought and emotion is just based on firing synapses in my brain or whatever.

Are we essentially good or bad?
I'd say good. Nobody is completely good or bad though. I am a firm believer in shades of gray.
