Man, why did it take me so long to find this FAB community?
01. Name: Laura
02. Age: 22
03. Gender: Eine frau! Female, in other words.
04. Location: My room…in front of the computer. Where else?
05. Favorite Beatle: George. I dig the under dog. Not to mention I think he produced the best post-Beatles music, and he weren't hard on the eyes, neither.
06. Least favorite Beatle: Hm, I go back and forth between John and Paul. I take issue with some of John’s choices and personality traits, and I really can’t stand a lot of the schlock Paul wrote with Wings and during his solo career.
07. Which Beatle do you think you're most like and why? Well, can’t tell for sure, which is partly why I joined this merry little community. Ringo maybe? Kind of the day-dreaming, out-of-it goofball.
08. Favorite Beatles song: Tie between “While My Guitar Gently Weeps” and “Here Comes the Sun.” Ooh! And “Dear Prudence.” And “Hey Jude.” And “Hello, Goodybe.” And-okay, I’ll stop.
09. Favorite Beatles album: Ooh, toughie. I really don’t think I can decide… “Rubber Soul” and “Sgt. Pepper,” maybe. And I also think “The White Album” is very underrated.
10. Describe your musical tastes (besides The Beatles): VERY eclectic. I pretty much go for any genre, so long as the song is catchy and competently done. That means anything from opera to Lady Gaga, Lesley Gore to The Pixies, Patsy Cline to Oingo Boingo, Aqua to Edith Piaf, Cab Calloway to Interpol…yeah, everything’s basically fair game.
11. Your Strengths: Affectionate, funny, understanding, polite, silly, imaginative, friendly
12. Your Weaknesses: Insecure, obsessive, dependent, often reclusive, impatient, avoidant, and amazingly out of touch with reality (for those of you who’ve seen The Big Lebowski, my friend says The Dude is me ‘if Laura were a man.’ And I’ve never even smoked pot! That’ll give you an idea how lackadaisical I am.)
13. Talents and/or things you enjoy doing even if you aren’t talented at them: Do sleeping and eating count? I’m a big reader and movie watcher (particularly old movies), and I also enjoy listening to music, sketching, swimming, and…um…I recently won an award as my major’s best critical essayist! Whee?
14. Are you a leader or a follower? More of a loner, luv. But if I gotta choose…follower, definitely. Leadership makes me feel all antsy and gross.
15. Are you serious or more of a jokester? Jokester for sure.
16. Are you a showman that loves the spotlight or more of a behind the scenes type person? Heh, asked me that during high school and I’d have said showman; these days, that stuff embarrasses me more or less. So I’d have to go for behind the scenes.
17. What three things are most important to you in life? The Three F’s: Family, Friends, Food.
18. What makes you really respect a person? The ability to tackle reality and get done what needs to be done WITHOUT turning into a backstabbing control freak. That takes skill!
19. What are your feelings on spirituality and religion? I like to believe in some kind of higher power, but so far I haven’t been swayed by any particular religion. Personally, I find it would be arrogant to say “my spirituality/religion is right, which means yours is WRONG WRONG WRONG,” because those two are such personal things. Therefore, I like believing that God (or whatever you want to call Him/Her/The Divine It) chooses to present him/her/itself in whatever form will make most sense to the particular individual: whether that be as Jesus, Muhammad, Krishna, etc.
