(no subject)
So you probably all noticed, I ended up getting a haircut a lot sooner than I'd suggested (even the places where I'd have a chance with long hair would rather I didn't, let's be honest). It's weird, having short hair for the first time since freshman year of high school. I certainly look better with it than I did then. XD ...It's gonna take a while to stop overexaggerating the arm motions I make when removing my headphones, as well as shampooing.
Now, the thing I find troublesome, though, is that while the male response has been pretty uniformly positive (Drew Stubbs' docking of my metal cred notwithstanding), the female response is notably split between approval and shock. Should I be worried? (My dad's opinion - "Well, you could always become gay.")
Who was the last friend in your house/apartment/dorm room?
Stubbs, I think, though I wasn't home yet.
How's your ex doing?
Sounded alright when we talked today. She didn't go to a bunch of her classes, shame on her.
Is there someone you want to fight?
Under certain unrealistic circumstances, definitely.
Song playing right now?
An arrangement of some themes from Ocarina of Time, called Pachelbel's Ganon. XD
Does anyone like you?
Perhaps? I'm certainly not the one to ask.
What are you thinking about right now?
Plans for the upcoming weeks that mainly boil down to ways to stop spending lots of time playing Shadow Of The Colossus.
What’s your middle name?
Joseph.
What were you doing an hour ago?
I think I was following the epic tale of the secret behind Powerup Comics. Worth a read if all else has failed.
What does your last text message in your inbox say?
"Blah"
Do you secretly like someone?
It's largely secret, at least.
Where were you friday night?
Spending my last night at Carleton in a less exciting fashion than I might have liked.
Do you wear the seatbelt in the car?
Yeah.
Has anyone ever mistaken you for someone else?
A guy at Carleton only fairly recently stopped.
next vacation you're going on?
I guess I'm on it.
Do you have any piercings?
Nope.
What's something you really want right now, be honest?
A job, or better, some great, fulfilling reason not to have one. Also, sex. XD
Do you like to text or call more?
There are certain people I'd rather call, but for general purposes I guess I prefer texting.
What's the closest blue object to you?
My spaceships blanket. Sitting on it.
Could you forgive your best friend for sleeping with your bf/gf?
I think I could, but I can't deny that would be a pretty surreal situation.
Is there anyone you hate?
Eh, not really.
Are you single?
Unfortunately.
Do you like the color orange?
I swear, I was just thinking about something the other day which involved permanently associating orange with something tragic, but I can't for the life of me remember it.
Where was your last long road trip to?
Hm...I guess upstate New York. I don't think there have been any since then.
Sometimes, do you wish you were someone else?
Perhaps more nowadays than I'd like, but not too often.
What is the weather like today?
Uneventful and inoffensive.
Was your last kiss drunk or sober?
Hm...I guess it would have to be drunk, wouldn't it?
Why did your last relationship end?
I was drawn from her by the beckoning talons (hooves?) of Moose Country.
Do you talk to your most recent ex, or crush more?
The former, though I do hope to keep in touch with the latter.
Who did you last talk to on the phone for over 20 minutes?
Hannah, I'm sure.
Where will you be in an hour?
In a state of ennui, more likely then not. Maybe I'll go for a walk.
Does your last ex have a job?
She's looking, last I heard.
What were you doing before filling out this survey?
Washing dishes.
What was your new years resolution?
I guess the unspoken one would have to be "don't puke on carpets".
What do you do when a telemarketer calls?
It's never for me, so it's easy enough to say "he/she's not here right now."
Have you been pressured into doing anything lately?
There was a bit of pressure involved, but for the most part it was something I felt I should do.
Do you think the concept of phone sex is stupid?
Maybe a bit silly.
How many kids do you want?
*shrug*
What color are your eyes?
Brown. (I typed Brawl first.)
Would you rather go camping or to a five star hotel?
"Depends" is a cop-out answer, and I bet the hotel would be too expensive.
Have you ever taken anyone/anything for granted?
Way too much, in fact.
Is there anybody you would consider dating right now?
If they would. Aye, there's the rub.
How late did you stay up last night?
Quarter past 5 or so.
What was the first thing you thought this morning?
It was something of a montage of odd dream moments from the last couple of nights, and reflection on the lack thereof that night.
What are you going to do this weekend?
Jam with Rasan, as far as I know. Should be fun.
What does the last text in your inbox say?
Why do they ask twice, anyway? The one before last was "What deed?"

No one. No one at all.
How many red lights have you run?
One or two.
Is the last person you kissed physically attractive?
Mmmmmm...kinda.
Do you currently have a hickey?
Nope.
Who was the last person you talked to on the telephone?
Some Carleton Res Life person.
Are you good at your job?
*grumble* We'll find out.
Who is the fifth text in your inbox from? What does it say?
"I'm learning german secondhand. XD *helping nelson study vocabulary*" (Hannah; pretty much speaks for itself)
Are you a good speller?
It's a source of some pride.
How much money do you have on you right now?
10 bucks, and a small hill of change.
When is the last time you took a nap?
Last day in Florida.
Would you ever stay with someone, just because you didn't want to break up?
Poor wording, I guess - isn't that one of the defining reasons to stay with someone?
Have you ever been on a roller coaster?
Questions like this are boring. Yeah.
Could you date someone taller then you?
I don't see why not.
What's the most interesting thing that happened to you today?
Erm...I'd classify everything under "equally uninteresting"
Ever had a near death experience?
If I did, I missed it.
Who would be the first to know if you got pregnant?
Continuing the sentiment of the previous question, probably not me.
Where is your phone?
A few inches from my right knee.
Do you like cuddling?
Yeah.
What are you doing tonight?
Wasting time, probably playing Shadow Of The Colossus or Tales Of Destiny, and going to sleep earlier than last night.
Why did you stop liking the last person you liked?
Last person I started liking chronologically, I guess? Hardly ever ran into her, and when I did, she was pretty dismissive.

Name a quote from the song you are listening to?
"Delete the past, the fear
Delete the past, every step is pure"

Answering questions for the sake of having something to say.

Rolled over and closed my eyes again.
Do you have a best friend?

I got one last week from a vending machine despite having pushed the lemonade button. I felt deeply betrayed.
Have you ever hated someone, but ended up being friends with them?
Does Dillinger Escape Plan count?
Do you own a pair of green pants?
Used to. I have no idea where they could have gone.
Are you more independent or dependent?
Not independent enough yet.
Do you like someone?
Come on. Isn't implying it through several other questions enough?

Kiwi. I haven't had a pomegranate recently enough to be sure.
Who was the last person you were mad at?
Myself or that Res Life woman.
What do you want right now?
For my FF7 disc 3 to stay unreadable. This is the version of the question where I don't have to be honest, yes?

Self-fulfillment and free will.
What is the last song to make you cry?
Songs can only do that to me through context.

Time. There's no momentum yet.
What do you miss?
Crossing the bridge over Lyman on a Friday night with a shiteating grin frozen to my face.
Do you give out second chances too easily?
I bet I would. I can't say I've ever had to.
What did you do yesterday?
It was a slightly more productive take on today. More video games, but also some looking for a job.
Where is one place you want to visit?
A large city I haven't been to before, most prominently. There's always that lurking Wacken undertone, though.
What's your favorite thing to have for breakfast?
French toast, side of ham and biscuits, fresh orange juice.
If you could change one thing about the world, what would it be?
I like Charlie's, to be sure, though it makes me ponder - it would make masochists the most dangerous people in the world.
Ever felt that no one relates to you?
Not in such absolutes, but I'm guilty of lesser sins in the same vein.
Had plans and broke them?
YOU DARE QUESTION THE KING?

Are you a lover or fighter?
Not much of either.
What is in front of you right now?
Something of a long time to work with.
What/who can always make you laugh?
Some of my best friends. SE++ does a good job too, though not always right away.
