I'm it! Tagged by LibertyElyot
Lots of pillows or just one? Two, though they get a bit sandwiched between my head and sometimes I steal my bedmates. I'm actually a horrible person to share a bed with because I kick. :-P
What kind of books do you read? Just like LE, I read a variety of genres. I love poetry so I've almost always got an anthology with me. I've recently become quite fond of essay collections. But really, I have a very particular genre of books that are closest to my heart: prose, written under the pretence of being fiction, that relies heavily on the author's own life. I have Jane Eyre/Villette, the Claudine series, and Tropic of Cancer in mind. I suppose a more appropriate term would be semi-autobiographical. And I also like diaries and memoirs. Woolf and Nin are my favourites... so, as I said before, I like a variety of genres.
What are your most awesome skills? I read incredibly fast (copying tsuu/libertyelyot's answer). This seems to be a common theme....
What's your occupation? Erm, I'm currently volunteering at the library but mostly I'm a full time student.
What's really creepy? Insects of all sorts and things that creep.
What's your current fandom/obsession/addiction?
Fandom: Harry Potter, of course. Though, I think they should just change the name to Severus Snape. The bulk of the fics are about him.
Obsession: Gordon Ramsay re-runs. *drools*
Addiction: Cheese. I love it. Got to have it. Can't go a dy without a stilton, cotswold, roquefort, brie...
What flavour ice cream would you choose right now? Chocolate-chip cookie dough, but I just eat all the dough bits.
What websites do you always visit when you go online? Livejournal, gmail, amazon, merrian-webster online (yes, I am a nerd), and AFF
What was the last thing you bought? A sandwich... That's really boring
What was the cutest thing you've seen today? My doggies sleeping
Do you get cravings? Hmmmm.... no, except for cheese.
What do you do to change your mood? Music works for me as well.
What is your zodiac sign? Aries
Do you want to learn another language? I studied Spanish and French, but my French is a bit rusty. I'm with LE, Russian would be amazing.
Five things you can't live without. The internet, books, writing, music, a good wedge of cheese(almost copying tsuu/libertyelyot again)
What's something you'd like to say to someone right now? I don't really want to be around you right now.
What are you looking forward to? Crawling back into bed...
Say something to the person who tagged you: I think you are the best writer I've ever come into contact with and you were the first person that really inspired me to write my own fics. So without you, there would be no Bea. Also, you introduced me to the wonderful world of Victoriana. Cheers!
