eponymous_roseAnother (long) meme, stolen from eers
Ten Favorites:
01. Show – Oh, don't make me pick. Currently it's Doctor Who, but it changes like nobody's business.
02. Flower – Marigold. :D
03. Color – See above!
04. Sport – Fencing!
05. Movie – Dunno!
06. Music – Everything!
07. Food – Everything! (basically)
08. Season – Fall! (Too bad we never get it and go straight from maybe-summer to definitely-winter)
09. Day – Of the week? Depends - currently it's Wednesday, because I have violinification! Over the school year, it's probably going to be Wednesday as well, for the confluence of weather courses on that day. Oh, hey! It's Wednesday today! (And it's an even specialer Wednesday, since I'm leaving the city tomorrow and therefore don't have work until next Monday!)
10. City – Paris! Booksellers on the Seine. Oh, man, I need to go back. Runners-up include Berlin, London, and D.C.!
Ten Facts:
01. Hometown – Smallish (80,000 people) city in central Alberta.
02. Hair color – Brown.
03. Hair length – Not quite to shoulders.
04. Hair style – Whatever it looks like after I've run a brush through it in the morning.
05. Eye color – Brown.

Ten things about your love life:

02. Do you believe in love? – Yup!
03. Do you give up on love easily? – Probably not.
04. Do you think someone likes you? – Um, yes. And that's about as awkward as it sounds.
05. Have you ever broken some one's heart? – It's possible.
06. Ever loved someone but never told them? – Nope!
07. Are you afraid of commitment? – Probably!
08. Have you ever had a secret admirer? – Heehee, yes. It was flattering as all-get-out, but also a little odd. And awkward, once the "secret" was out of the equation.
09. Do you believe in love at first sight? – Sure.
10. Do you want to get married one day? – Currently I say "no", but who knows?
Ten this or that's:

02. White chocolate or milk chocolate? White chocolate!
03. Flowers or candy? Candy!
04. One night stands or relationships? Relationships!
05. There was no number five, so I make up my own: happy or sad? Happy!
06. Pepsi or coke? Eh. Either or.
07. Wild night out or romantic night in? The latter, I guess.
08. Color or black and white pictures? Both!
10. AIM or myspace? I've only ever used AIM, and that was a while ago.
Ten have you evers:
01. Have you ever been caught sneaking out? No, probably because I don't think I ever did any sneaking out.
02. Have you ever been completely in love? I don't know!
03. Have you ever done something you regret? On the whole, no. I'll regret it at the time, but not in retrospect, which is weird.
04. Have you ever went sky diving? Nope, but my cousin has!
05. Have you ever been on a house boat? Nope, but my parents had their honeymoon on one!
06. Have you ever finished an entire jaw breaker? Of course!
07. Have you ever wanted someone so badly it hurt? Can't say I have, no.
08. Have you ever been streaking? Nope!
09. Have you ever been skinny dipping? Nope!
10. Have you ever wanted to marry a celebrity? Nope! I've crushed, certainly, but marriage? Gah.
Ten emotions:
01. Are you missing someone right now? Yeah, mostly university buddies.
02. Are you happy? Yup!
03. Are you 'talking' to any one right now? I really want to know why that's in quotes. Um. No, I'm not. I get the impression I'm missing something, though.
04. Are you bored? I don't think I can get bored. (If I could, this whole typing-numbers-for-five-hours thing would get old quickly.)
05. Are you German? Yup, one-half. And, well, even the Russian quarter of me is of German extraction.
06. Are you Irish? Heehee! What a coincidence! That's the other quarter. Three-quarters German/Russian, one quarter Irish. And the whole thing's sort of moot, because I'm fourth-generation Canadian.
07. Are you French? Malheureusement que non.
08. Are you Italian? No.
09. Are your parents still married? Yup!
10. Do you have a boyfriend or girlfriend? I honestly don't know.

02. Last thing you read? A bit of a paper on episodic occurrences of hail.
03. Last IM? It's been a long, long time.
04. Last item bought? Banana milk! Mmm.
05. Last thing ate? I said "lunch" last time. More specifically, a Kit-Kat bar. Yum.
06. Last time you were nervous? The second time I got hit in the ribs at fencing last night. There's a serious hole in my stance, looks like. Should probably fix that!
07. Last person hugged? Can't recall - I'm not much of a hugger.
08. Last TV show watched? The tail end of Canadian Idol. *wince*
09. Last cry? Can't recall! :D
10. There's no number ten, and I need something dramatic to finish this up: last meme stolen? This one! *gasp*
eersWhat's a word that rhymes with "DOOR?" Tor (meaning peak, or pinnacle)
Favorite planet? Gallifrey From our solar system? Probably Neptune. Poor lil' thing never gets enough love.
Who is the 4th person on your missed call list on your cell phone? That would be my old buddy "No ID". It bugs the heck out of me when people forget that I don't have caller ID and expect me to know they've called me. *grumble* It was probably a fencing buddy of mine. Or Mom.
What is your favorite ring on your phone? TARDIS!
What shirt are you wearing? Totally faded cheap white T-shirt with a picture of Washington DC's Capitol building on it. Huzzah!
Do you "label" yourself? Sometimes my friends put price tags on my sleeves.
Name the brand of your shoes you're currently wearing? *wince* Nike. The only ones narrow enough.
Bright or Dark Room? Either or!
What do you think about the person who took this survey before you? In fact, I'll copy-paste her reply! "I’ve never met her, but I know her through HN and she seems a really nice person. :)" Because it's true. :D
What were you doing at midnight last night? Listening to an amazing Eighth Doctor radio play. Absolutely amazing. (So glad I didn't start with the TVM...)
What did your last text message you received on your cell say? I think that was one my brother sent to me by accident. Don't remember what it said - something amusing and out-of-context, no doubt.
Where is your nearest 7-11? Good question, actually. There are two Mac's within a few blocks, so I usually just go there (like this morning, for my pre-work sugar rush!)
What's a word that you say a lot? "Awesome". I type "y'know" a heckuva lot, but I hardly ever say it in real life. Same with "um". Weird.
Who told you he/she loved you last? My grandparents e-mailed me just to tell me that. *blush*
Last furry thing you touched? Our adoptive kitty! She got annoyed at me and ran away, though. :(
How many drugs have you done in the last three days? None, unless you count candy. Or the Big Finish Doctor Who audios, because they are crack.
How many rolls of film do you need developed? Digital!
Favorite age you have been so far? Nineteen!
Your worst enemy? In terms of a person? Someone in high school, long story, extremely childish feud, best forgotten. In terms of something abstract? Probably a little too much ambition. I frequently bite off more than I can chew - while I do get through it all, it takes way longer than I expect. (take, for instance, the long-promised Mrs. Hudson crack!fic...)
What is your current desktop picture? Just a random picture of tulips. Wanted something summery.
What was the last thing you said to someone? "Great!" after fixing a technical problem on a coworker's computer.
If you had to choose between a million bucks or to be able to fly what would it be? I'd take the million. Flying would be pretty great, but I'd rather have grad school. :3
The last song you listened to? Those crazy audio adventures. I'm obsessed already - it's depressing. Sort of.
Are you taller than your mom? Half an inch, maybe.
What color is your car? Don't own one!
What is the closest thing to you that is red? On the weather calendar sitting closed on my desk, there's a little corner bit that says "FREE! Hurricane poster inside" - it's red.
What is your ringtone? TARDIS
Does anything hurt on your body right now? I took two very solid hits to the ribs at fencing last night. Clever of me. *wince*
What color is your favorite pillow? It's just white, but it's big and ridiculously poofy.
What is your favorite video game? I like the Wii. For sentimental reasons, probably Mario Kart.
Had a nap today? Nope, don't nap.
Gold or Silver? Silver!
Is there an animal that creeps you out? Not... really. Mosquitoes, for sure. I was so excited when I saw a dragonfly today - I was all: "Oh, I knew there was a reason I didn't cower in the basement all summer..."
Who was the last person you rode an elevator with? A random lady, on the way to my practice room at lunch. She said hello and I smiled. I hope I smiled, at least - knowing me, I probably just ignored her.
Did you go ice skating as a kid? Oh, geez. Don't remind me. *shudders* Raynaud's (too lazy to check spelling) syndrome - basically means I feel cold as pain in my fingers and toes - wasn't diagnosed until middle school. I couldn't figure out how anyone else could stand it!
Favorite non-alcoholic drink? Ooh, those terrible flavoured-milk drinks. Orange milk! Yum...
Have you ever caught something on fire? A potato in the microwave in my Home Ec class in middle school.
Have you ever seen the northern lights? Yep! Bright green and rippling across the sky - that was brilliant.
Do you know how to use chop sticks? Indeed I do, after being mocked mercilessly in Japan.
Name something good that happened today. I took a three-hour lunch and played piano and violin and listened to my audio books. Yay!
What room are you in? My office at work.
Are you worried about something you can't control? Um, yeah. Global warming, for starters.
What are you doing at this moment? Well, memeing. I'm supposed to be working. Sort of. I'm still too far ahead.
Ever been in a fight? Yup! Wasn't my intention, really, and I didn't fight back. But, um, yeah. Ouch.
Are you wearing nail polish? Nope!
Favorite color? Oh, I like most colours. I wear red most often, so I'll say that.
Sweet or Sour!? Both! Why is there an exclamation point there?
Sun or Moon? When I was little, the moon was my best friend. I'd talk to it frequently (getting me some weird looks from friends and family). "Moon" was actually my first word. :D
What kind of shoes did you wear today? The sort of crappy black shoes I have left from work last summer - they're all I wear, except for at fencing.
Most important quality in any relationship? Sense of humour.
Time of day you were born? Afternoon!
Do you know your blood type? Didn't know until I started donating blood - B+!
What would you spend $5000 on right now if you were handed it? Charity, school. Maybe those Russian Sherlock Holmes DVDs!
Name something annoying? A mosquito! Of course, if it's buzzing it means it's not gonna sting.
Did you grow up in the city or country? City. I've been on a farm maybe six times.
Would you ever consider going on a reality tv show if offered a large sum of money? Ehh. I'd really rather not!
Have you flown in your dreams? On airplanes? Yup. Spaceships? Actually, quite a few times. (Blame the X-Files and Star Trek for that...) Just flying, though? Nope.
Hugs or kisses? Hugs!
What would you do if you opened up your front door to a dead body? Close it. No, I guess it depends - if there were just a body on my front step, I'd probably freak out and call 911. If there were a dead body knocking on the door, then I'd run to find my zombie-killing guide. I knew that'd come in handy!
Have you ever thought someone died, when they really didn't? Actually, it happens quite often. I have the most ridiculously screwed-up nightmares, sometimes.
Have you ever fallen backwards down a set of stairs? Don't think so, but it's only a matter of time...
Ever found more than a dollar in a random place? My brother and I were at the park and we randomly started digging in the sand. We found about ten dollars!
Name someone close to you who smokes cigarettes? My Mom's cousin/my namesake.
Everyone knows that: I'm a terrible geek with a zany sense of humour. Also: awkward.
When a friend walks out of your life, do you go after them, or let them go? I always let them go.
Have you ever been corrected at your workplace? Not really, no.
Has anyone ever been more important to you than a family member? Probably at some point.
Do you still live at home? Nope.
Last time you smiled? A couple minutes ago - it was an awkward smile, since one of my supervisors had just walked in and I was furiously minimizing this meme.
What do you do when a telemarketer calls? Hang up, generally before they start speaking.
Would life be the same without alcohol? I think it'd be better. :D
Would you go a month without washing your hair to save a loved one? Um, yeah? Am I missing something? Who wouldn't?
Do you think your current pets will be alive ten years from now? Aw, don't make me think about that. My kitties are both twelve right now - and though Manx cats can live to be in their twenties, mixed-breed strays don't typically live that long. :(
When was your last bubble bath? Ages and ages. I should have one this weekend...
Do you know anyone by the name of Dennis? I don't, actually, which means that I should have a character named "Dennis" in something I write. :D
What was the last thing you ate? Lunch!
