1. It seems strange that my life should end in such a terrible place, but for three years I had roses and apologized to no one. I shall die here. Every inch of me shall perish. Every inch, but one. An inch. It is small and it is fragile and it is the only thing in the world worth having. We must never lose it or give it away. We must never let them take it from us. "V for Vendetta" (Valerie/Natasha Wightman)

2. Was I ever crazy? Maybe. Or maybe life is... Crazy isn't being broken or swallowing a dark secret. It's you or me amplified. If you ever told a lie and enjoyed it. If you ever wished you could be a child forever. "Girl, Interrupted" (Susanna/Winona Ryder)

3. What? Am I Igor? I deal with sex deviants, not killers. "The Accident" (Reeny/Sarah Clarke)

4. The greatest single human gift - the ability to chase down our dreams.
5. Enough to travel the world with you until one of us has to take an honest job... which I think is going to have to be you, because I have no idea what an honest job is. "Casino Royale" (James Bond/Daniel Craig)

6. I can avoid being seen if I wish, but to disappear entirely, that is a rare gift. "The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring" (Aragorn/Viggo Mortensen)

7. See, I'm dishonest. And a dishonest man you can always trust to be dishonest. Honestly. It's the honest ones you need to watch out for, because you never know when they're going to do something incredibly... stupid. "Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl" (Jack Sparrow/Johnny Depp)

8. So you're gonna suffer... but you're gonna be happy about it. "Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban" (Ron Weasley/Rupert Grint)

9. Well, I think you're stressed, and that's why you eat so much. I mean, it's hard to get fat on a vegan diet. "Ice Age" (Sid/John Leguizamo)

10. You're going to die young because you smoked 30 cigarettes a day since you were 15... and you're going to go to hell because of the life you took. You're fucked. "Constantine" (Gabriel/Tilda Swinton)

11. What do you want? Coke, Pepsi, saline IV? "The X-Files: Fight the Future" (Fox Mulder/David Duchovny)

12. Never let a man spend the night, she said. Never apologize, never explain. She was breaking all her rules, and it would change everything. "White Oleander" (Astrid/Alison Lohman)

13. Well, what would you prefer? Yellow spandex? "X-Men" (Cyclops/James Marsden)

People who get tagged need to write a blog of their own 15 weird habits/things/little known facts as well as state this rule clearly. At the end, you need to choose 5 people to be tagged and list their names. People who have answered are not allowed to get tagged anymore.
1. When I was younger I wanted to become a firefighter. I rescued a kitty from up a tree (and I almost got myself killed when I trusted a weak branch) and still have scars to prove that. Then I realized that firefighters not only save people and extinguish fires, but also take dead bodies out of wracked cars etc, and blood's so not my thing.
2. My first pet was a little yellow duck called Popio.
3. I almost drowned when I was a kid. My mom caught my arm and pulled me out of the water just in time. While the water was taking me down, I felt nothing, it was like falling asleep. That's probably why I'm still a bit afraid of open water.
4. I sleep with two pillows: one under my head, the other's for company, I just hug it. :P
5. Of all movies I've ever seen, only two made me cry.
6. I always walk barefoot and that drove crazy my parents till a few years ago when they decided to give up. Clearly, when I have to go somewhere, I put shoes on, but when I'm home, or in my yard, I'm barefoot.
7. I like to climb trees. (I do that barefoot too, like a big monkey Tarzan.)
8. I never wear skirts.
9. I love vegetables. When I was in middle school, I used to trade my, like, bread with someone else's salad. Good thing most kids don't like anything that's green. ;)
10. When I was 1 years old I smashed my head against the glass of a door and I broke it. The glass.
11. I used to have some sort of promonitory dreams. It was quite creepy.
12. If I don't brush my teeth before going to bed I'll surely have nightmares all night long.
13. I have a pretty good photographic memory. I can take one look at, like, the shopping list and remember every single thing, mostly in the same order they're written. But I'm way too lousy with numbers/dates, they just slip off my mind.
14. I never call my cat by her real name.
15. Sometimes I think in english, just to try and improve my skills. (Then I saw that episode of Heroes where Mr. Bennet think in Japanese not to let the mind-reader guy, Matt Parkman, know what he's thinking, and I felt less... silly. ;))
