kormanfan viola!
1. If you had to choose an alias, what would it be?
Camille. I used to plan to write a series of teen novels about a girl who was genetically enhanced and had to go on the run and became basically a super-hero named Camille. And then I found out it'd been done a million times, so I gave it up. But I liked the name.
2. Where were you on 9/11?
At home and then at work. I never watch the news in the morning, and yet that day, I turned it one. I didn't quite understand what was going on until I made it to work and everyone was telling me about it. I think I turned it on just after the second plane hit, and when I got to work, the first tower fell. My stupid boss reported it like it was 'cool.' Never stopped smiling the whole time. Idiot.
3. What is your ideal vacation?
Never been on a vacation, really. I guess Hawaii, in a hotel where each room is like a separate house. I'd want to surf and swim and hike and stuff. Maybe for about a week or two. But something really low key where I didn't feel like I *had* to be anywhere at any given time.
4. How many first cousins do you have?
5
5. How do you take your pizza?
Cheese, olives. Sometimes bacon or something.
6. If you could be fluent in any foreign language (that you are not already) what would it be?
Spanish. It'd be the most useful for where I live, I think.
7. What is your favorite website?
I guess the SSA. Fic!
8. If you could experience another era of history, which would it be?
1920s.
9. What is your favorite genre of movies?
action/adventure/
10. If you could have any one superpower, what would it be?
Flight
11. Can you whistle?
Yes.
12. If you could be any animal for a day, what would it be?
A dolphin.
13. Who is your favorite fictional character?
Hmmm … that's hard. Top 10: Beauty (from Robin McKinley's "Beauty") Ella (from Ella Enchanted), Charlotte Doyle, Mary Russell, Princess Leigh, Mara Jade, Talon Card, Lex, Clark, Chloe, Elizabeth Bennett.
14. Star Wars or Star Trek?
I guess Star Wars. I was a Trekkie for a few years, but Star Wars has been a life long obsession
15. What is your favorite beverage?
Cherry Coke
16. What brand of toothpaste do you use?
Whatever is on sale and usually for sensitive teeth
17. What is your favorite professional sports team?
To the lasting shame and bafflement of my mother, I have none.
18. Are you "indoorsy" or "outdoorsy"?
More indoorsy, although I would like to be more outdoorsy.
19. What is your earliest childhood memory?
Shaving my lip. I can remember leaning over the sink, holding my mother's razor. I was standing on the bathtub, looking into the mirror. Kit, the next door neighbor was behind me. I was showing him how I could shave (I don't remember why). The last thing I remember is my reflection in the glass. This may not be my earliest memory, but it's the one I remember right now.
20. If you could play any musical instrument, what would it be?
Huh, well, I play the flute, so I guess piano or guitar. I've tried both; if I practiced, I could to piano. Guitar … I can't make my fingers bend the way they are supposed to, even with three people trying to bend them into place.
21. What's your favorite accent?
English/Irish
22. When you were little, what did you want to be when you grew up?
Teacher, actress, waitress, nurse, dolphin trainer, archeologist, pilot …
23. Are you a dog person or a cat person?
Cat
24. If they were making a movie or TV show of your life, who would you choose to play you?
Drew Barrymore or Allison Mack. I looked like Drew when I was a kid (not anymore, but my 4-5-6 year old pictures are scarily like hers).
25. What is your favorite element (earth, fire, water or air)?
Water
26. If you could compete in any event in the Olympics (summer or winter) what would it be?
100 m breaststroke (swimming as a whole, I guess)
27. What is your favorite Sunday comic strip?
Get Fuzzy
28. What kind of music do you listen to?
Almost any kind except rap, country, or hard rock. Not because I don’t enjoy them when I hear them, but because I don't make the effort.
29. What is your favorite breakfast cereal?
Lucky Charms
30. What is your worst habit?
Putting myself down and thinking that people won't like me or be interested in me.
