ALSO.

1) Make a list of fifteen characters first, and keep it to yourself for the moment. (That way you're not leading the questions asked to fit the characters.)

2) Ask your f-list to post questions in the comments.

For example:

'One, Nine, Eleven and Fifteen are chosen by a prophecy to save the world from Four. Do they succeed?'
'Under what circumstances might Five and Seven fall in love?'
'Which character on the list would you most want on your side in a zombie invasion?'
'What would Two experience in Silent Hill?'
'What Pokémon would Eight have?'
'Write a drabble in which Two and Twelve FIGHT CRIME.'

3) After your f-list has asked enough questions, round them up and answer them using the fifteen characters you selected beforehand, then post them.


ETA:ICON MEME. Only I'm cheating and using icons that I've made and RP icons as well. Shush. >_>

... ffff. How about the entirety of the playlist I listen to when I go running? It's got Lady Gaga, Beyonce, Britney Spears, Kylie Minogue, Michael Jackson, Black Eyed Peas... everything I claim to hate is on that playlist. Why do I have it, then? Well. That style of music has the steadiest beat and I always unconsciously walk/run to the beat of music, so. |D

I'm putting together a little fic prompt table for myself to refer to when I want to write ficlets and need inspiration. BUT. I AM IN NEED OF SOME HELP. So, flist, if you wouldn't mind could you please comment with one or more of the following?

→ a song lyric or two
→ a description of some sort
→ a word or two
→ a situation, e.g. "stuck in a cave w/ thunderstorm"
→ a picture prompt

Anything at all is so very appreciated~ ♥♥♥

A. List seven habits/quirks/facts about yourself.
B. Tag seven people to do the same.
C. Do not tag the person who tagged you or say that you tag "whoever wants to do it."


→ I check my email before getting out of bed. My iPod Touch stays under my pillow at night (because I almost always read something on the 'net before I go to sleep because I have trouble falling asleep and the laptop is too bright to read on and get sleepy) so when I wake up in the morning, I grab it and use it to check my email and flist.

→ My favorite smell in the world is that of horse manure. Sounds weird, I know, but the smell of a barn makes me feel at home.

( snip! )

I tag: makinhistory, megasquip, nytyngayl, lithographic, rumination, pridefall, and nodoff. If any of you don't want to do it, though, you don't have to. :) LUIS, YOU DON'T COUNT IN THAT. YOU HAVE TO DO IT.

List your characters. Then pick a trait from each one that the two of you share and explain it. If you don't share a trait with any of them, put N/A.
THE "DEAR GOD KAT HAS A LOT OF ACTIVE MUSES" TABLE:

/rips out uterus. WHY DO YOU DO THIS TO ME.

dammit. i'm going to need to go see the doctor again. my pmdd has been getting worse with the physical symptoms.

Didn't get a part in the dinner theater production, which I was expecting. I'm still a little young to be playing roles that are more than about three or four years either way. The director did say he was really impressed, though, and that I had a lot of talent, so that makes me feel really good. Unfortunately, this also means I probably won't be able to do anything with theater until I head off for college-- and then it'll be my major.

And, here. Since I'm bored:

Name a crack pairing or situation from any fandom and I will try to write a serious fic with said prompt. Then post this on your journal and do the same. If you're not a writer, feel free to offer other thing instead of fic.

Oooooohhhh my god. I had the busiest day I can ever remember having yesterday.

Woke up at seven, was at church by seven thirty, did the powerpoint for both the eight o'clock and eleven o'clock services, went out to lunch with the 'rents and the Jelens, went home and chilled for fifteen minutes, drove to Worthing and did my audition for The Movie Game, drove back home, took a shower, went to the Outpouring (kind of like an evening church service the 'rents were leading the music for) did powerpoint for that, ended up staying a little while after and debating theology with Gary who isn't the brightest crayon in the box, came home at 10:30, checked email and IMed for about fifteen minutes before I finally just passed out and went to bed.

Mary, mother of God. Seventeen and a half hour day. I haven't pulled that in a long while and I don't think I'm going to be pulling it again for a long while.

Anyways, the audition went well. It was me and two other people who showed up and then the director. We did some warm-up improv games and then we did some cold readings. It was obvious the older lady had some experience under her belt, but she and the director were both good to me and the other kid, the just-out-of-high-school theater geeks. Turns out the guy is pretty cool (we talked a bit during the lulls in the audition) and he does sound and lights for plays he doesn't get into. Takes a lot of guts, methinks, to work on a play you auditioned for and didn't get a part in. Actually, that made me say I'd be willing to help with props and costumes. Because I miss doing that.

So the Sound of Music audition is tonight which SUCKS because I have what may be a sinus infection. I've got all the usual symptoms for it. So we'll see how it goes.

Been doing a lot of thinking about college since I didn't get into the BFA program. I've been thinking that maybe just going to USD would be better than U of M, at least for freshman year. If I hate it, I can always transfer. I just think that going from homeschooling/a tiny private college to U of M would be a huge transition and culture shock. And I'm already freaking out about moving away and being, in essence, on my own in the world. Especially since U of M discourages living in dorms after freshman year. I'm just like "Am I really ready for this? Can I handle it?" and at USD it would be a lot easier because it's a smaller school and beyond that, it's an hour away from home, so if I had a lot of trouble or something I could drive home for the weekend and crash at my parent's place.

IDK. Things to think about. I'll stop rambling now.
