    • If I Were a Dog

      • If you were a breed of dog, what kind would you be?

        (Not the kind that appeals to you most, the one with the most similar personality traits.)


        Irish Wolfhound

        I'd probably be a Irish Wolfhound. I'd say I'm rather friendly and can be destructive if left to my own devices- like Irish Wolfhounds. I think it's an anxiety thing. I like to make stuff and fiddle with arts and crafts when I'm alone at home and it makes a mess. Alternately I could be a Tibetan Terrier- also friendly and a good companion dog. I have a Tibetan Terrier and he's a fantastic dog because he's good at listening and (pretty good at) following commands (a majority of the time). Either way I like both breeds but I don't have a wolfhound because I don't have the space. And I'd really not want to come home to a huge dog that chewed the couch while I was away...

    • I Win!

      • What game are you the champion of?


        Jumping Rope

        I'm pretty fair at dodgeball when its just running away from the balls, but I am awesome at Chinese jump rope. Unforuntly I couldn't find an image that I liked of it, but it's that three person jump rope game were one person jumps "in", "out", "left", "right", and "on" the ropes. There's so many variations of it, I'm pretty sure every game is slightly different from the last. I used to play it in elementary school, and I was rather pro. I think I set a record among my friends by jumping the rope successfully when it was waist high.

    • My All-Time Favorite Authors

      • Who are your all-time favorite authors?


        Arkham House books on bookshelf

        I really admire David Eddings and his novels. I do see repetition in his stories, but they really made me love fantasy novels and made me the fantasy person I am today. I enjoyed every series and every adventure of his characters.

        Douglas Adams books were hilarious and I think I've read almost all of his books. One day I'll find a copy of Thanks for All the Fish.

        Where the Red Fern Grows by Wilson Rawls was my favorite book when I was little. I probably owe that author for a lot of teary reading when I was little. I also like a lot of William Blake poetry, but he was a tiny bit crazy...

        J. R. R. Tolkien is another a favorite too. He gave us a world that was fantastic and had a melancholy way about it that isn't really present in other fantasy stories were every other guy has some crazy magical-fireball-powers-and-secretly-was-raised-by-fairies.

        When I was younger I really treasured my dad's collection of Piers Anthony books. They were entertaining and fun fantasy. They were easy to read and perfect for elemetary school. At the same time I also loved Brian Jacques Redwall series, particularly Taggerung and Marlfox. I've seriously reread those books atleast 10 times.

        There's probably more, but these are the ones that impacted me the most.

    • On Writing a Book

      • Have you ever thought about writing a book?


        Notebooks

        I've thought about approaching fantasy novels, and I feel like I could have some short stories locked up in my head- but that's were the stories stay. I'm not able to process my thoughts and physically write them on paper. I can't type them either. I've tried to type some things up, but whatever my hands type doesn't come out as alive and breathing than what I see in my head. I thought maybe I could try a graphic novel approach or a hybridization where there are words and compainion images, but I don't think I'll ever be organized or be able to push myself that far. That's why I respect people who have been able to publish a book (even if its something atrocious like those vampire novels) because they've made their imagination into someone else's recreation.

    • Old TV Shows I Miss

      • What old shows do you wish you could still watch on TV?


        Firefly Drive with Yellow Exhaust

        My friend told me about Firefly and Serenity, and I watched it. I found it so breathtakingly awesome, and I couldn't believe such a show could only have 14 episodes. It was so clever in execution and the character dialogue and it was a shame that it was put down like a homeless dog. Sure, as fans we all got a movie to tie up the loose ends, but it wasn't enough for me. Also, my favorite character, besides River, was Wash. And he frickin' dies. WTF.
