SECTION 1 --- personality
1) imagine the following situation : its 2 o'clock in the morning and
you
wake up at once. you turn on the light with the switch next to your
bed and
the first thing you see is a spider sitting on your blanket. what
would
happen next?
I would hyperventilate. then I would try to sqirm out of bed without
making it move, grab my trusty can of aqua net hairspray, and spray
until death set in.
2) if you could choose a hero-super-power...which one would you pick?
Well, flying would be cool, as would invisibility or shapeshifting.
Deep in my heart, I know that I would pick the ability to throw
fireballs from my hands. it's pretty useless, but it's what i want to
do.
3) imagine the following situation : all your friends want you to go
out with
somebody you really like as a friend but wouldnt want to go out
with...that
somebody asks you to go out with her/him. what happens next?
Been there. I'd give it a shot--you never know, and if you're such
good friends, then there shouldn't be any weirdness if it doesn't
work. Plus they probably only asked you because all your mutual
friends were pestering too much.
4) if you saw somebody dropping accidently $100 while looking for
something
in his/her wallet and the begger lieing on the street sees it and
starts
moving towards the bill...what would happen next?
It depends on the person. Eh, what am I saying. I probably would do
anything, and there's no beggars around here anyway.
5) who is better off...the person with lots of people he/she knows but
no
real friends or the one with just a few really good friends?
A few really good friends. Most definitely.
SECTION 2 --- your view on things
1) if you want to overthrow a government...do you have to influence it
from
the inside or from the outside looking in?
Probably from teh inside, unless you're more charasmatic than Jesus
was.
2) what do you think of contest-thinking and rivalry?
I'm all for it. I thrive on that sort of thing.
3) what do you think of pride (pride of your country/color/social
status/your
self)
Eh. Self-pride is good in moderation. The other kinds are just an
excuse to get away with crap, in my opinion.
4) do you expect a certain level of intelligence of someone who wants
to be
your friend?
I wouln't say "You're stupid, you cant' be my friend." But I don't
think it would be a great friendship or a lasting one. And if it's a
relationship....I made my mistakes already. I'm not dating dummies
anymore.
5) would you be friends with someone just because he/she has something
you
want or need or because its just him and it looks cool to hang out
with
him/her?
No.
6) why do people spend money they dont have on things they dont want
to
impress people they dont like?
Because they're STUPID! Umm..yeah. What kate said.
SECTION 3 --- LIFE!
1) what do you expect from life?
Death
2) is a career involving making a shitload of money important to you?
Not important, per se, but it would be nice, I guess. But I'm living
proof that it doesn't really matter too much to me.
3) what is the memory you think most of?
I don't know. "This one time...."
4) do you remember the first 4 years of your life?
Yes, I have some very specific memories of things, especially of
dreams that I had when I was 3 and 4.
5) what is love? (i know its not that easy but try to keep it
short...)
Love is what I am in now. (gag, but it's true) Love is when it feels
like you have bubbles filling your chest, and your heart does the
break-the-cage thing from the Grinch.
6) would you want to live forever if you had the choice or do you like
a fast
life and die young? LIve forever, but only if I *could* die in some
way
SECTION 4 --- abstract stuff
1) whats better...blind or debth?
Cripes, I hate this question. It's so dumb. What sort of choice is
that? And when are you ever going to be forced to make it, anyway?
Ooh, it makes me mad!
2) what comes to mind...'the one-eyes among the blind'
A Sisters of Mercy song (it's not from one, but makes me think of
SOM)
3) what comes to mind...'tomorrow theres always a day'
Some stupid inspirational thing you'd read painted on a rock or piece
of glass at a christian book store.
4) is killing wrong? (ethicly)
No. It depends on the definition of killing, though. Murder is
wrong. But is letting someone die when you could stop their death
considered killing? I've done that, but I don't feel I'm a bad person
for it. They didn't want to be saved.
5) is it wrong to sleep with someone else than the person you love?
This one is tricky, because there's a lot of layers to it. If you
loved the person at the time, but have left them and now are with
someone else, then I say no, it wasn't wrong to sleep with the first
person (or the second for that matter). If you are not involved with
anyone, and meet someone and have a fling, and you BOTH recognise it
as such and want no long-term deal, then no, it's not wrong. If
you're in a polygamous relationship and love more than one person, and
each partner knows about your lifestyle, then no, it's not wrong.
If you are in a serious monogomous relationship, and cheat, then....it
is wrong, but i could also argue to how it is not wrong.
Of course, it's not wrong to sleep with anyone, if you sleep with
them, but don't have sex. ;)
6) whats worse...loving someone and never actually tell her/him or
telling
people all the time that you love em but dont actually mean it?
They're both bad. The second is hurtful to others, but the first can
rip your soul apart.
SECTION 4 --- miscellanious
1) do you think youre older than you actually are?
I used to, but now.... I really believe that age doesn't mean much.
2) do you think youre better than some/all other people?
Abso-fucking-lutely!!
For no reason,
Dyann
