Oh hey, more memes. 8D
EDIT: OH HEY, END OF THE MONTH AND I MANAGED TO GET MY SIDEBAR CALENDAR ALL NICELY INTO COLUMNSSSS~~~
I had my self-esteem knocked down a couple more notches when I had my cover letter and resume torn apart by my coordinator today. Not that I didn't see it happening or anything, but damn. >_>;
... the worst part is that there was the most GLARINGLY OBVIOUS typo ever in my cover letter, and I'm taking this cover letter and resume into my mock interview tomorrow seeing as these were sent in on Wednesday morning. Great. >_>; I was intimidated as fuck by Bob so clearly my interview won't be too hot anyway because I am going to be scared as fuck tomorrow, and now I have a shitty cover letter and resume going into this to boot. GOOD JOB TWIGGY.
Did I mention there's going to be a snowstorm tomorrow? :D
I'm really, really thankful I put up that random compliments meme yesterday and that you guys responded. The comments I got were all obscenely heartwarming ;_; ♥ I LOVE YOU GUYS.
Randomly, I think most of my new fish, with the exception of Glamis and Fife, are beginning to recognize me as Bringer Of Food. I don't know if this is a good thing or a bad thing. >_>;
Speaking of fish, here's a really crappy photograph of everybody!
Yeah. Taking photos of 8 fish is difficult. I got lucky when they all decided to congregate in the right side of the tank, so THIS IS THE BEST I CAN DO. Again, perspective is weird so some of them seem bigger than they really are, in comparison to Boss anyway.
Rosencrantz is probably the prettiest fish, but he's also got an annoying habit of staying towards the back of the tank which makes taking photos even more difficult than it already is. Twitchy also has pretty colouration (although not in the perfectly symmetrical way that R is), but while he goes all over the tank, he's nicknamed Twitchy for a reason. >_>; *cough*
Bah, they're all pretty. THEY JUST DON'T STAY STILL. Moving on. Meme time. :3

1) Are you currently in a serious relationship?
Yes. With my fish. ♥
2) What was your dream growing up?
... illustrator/author. So much for that. *no longer has dreams because the world is a cold and bitter place which dashes the hopes of children*
3) What talent do you wish you had?
DANCING. Because dancers are hot, kthnx.
4) If I bought you a drink what would it be?

Broccoli.
6) What was the last book you read?
Gods Behaving Badly by Marie Phillips. :3

Gemini (twins for double the win! *kicked), or Dragon (hear me roar?) if you wanna go by Asian astrology.
8) Any tattoos and/or piercings? Explain where.
Don't have anything anywhere. :D
9) Worst habit?
Uhhh... being too snappy? :x Saying "uh" and "um" too much when I'm nervous? Averting eye contact when I speak to people? Picking at scabs/pimples? Picking my nose on occasion? ENDING EVERY OTHER LINE ON LJ WITH AN EMOTE? I DON'T KNOW, I HAVE TOO MANY. D:
10) If you saw me walking down the street would you offer me a ride?
Well, if it wasn't too dangerous to stop, sure. :D
11) What is your favourite sport?
Uh... swimming? Not that I can really swim anymore or anything.
12) Do you have a negative or optimistic attitude?
Disgustingly optimistic. Unless I'm with a bunch of optimists, in which case I tend to take it upon myself to make things seem as miserable as possible. :D
13) What would you do if you were stuck in an elevator with me?
Press the emergency button and chat until help comes or until the air runs out and we die, obviously.

16) Do you have any pets?
Fishfishfishfishfishfishfishfish. ♥
17) What if I showed up at your house unexpectedly?
I'd scream, tell you to wait outside, and run back in my house to try to make everything (and myself) look remotely presentable before inviting you back in. :D
18) What was your first impression of me?
"She must love the colour orange. Hmm."

Scary. But occasionally very sexy when of the Cirque Du Soleil variety. 8D
20) If you could change one thing about how you look, what would it be?
FLAWLESS SKIN PLEASE.
21) Would you be my crime partner or my conscience?
Partner in crime. :D Unless of course, the deed was too much for my own conscience to contend with...
22) What colour eyes do you have?
Brown. :/
23) Ever been arrested?
No D: DON'T JINX ME.
24) Bottle or can soda?
Glass bottle for the win!
25) If you won $10,000 today, what would you do with it?

Spirits? Why the hell not.
29) Favourite thing to do in your spare time?
... check LJ. *shamed*
30) Do you swear a lot?
When I'm peeved, then fuck yes. Otherwise, I keep it PG-13?
31) Biggest pet peeve?
Well, if this meme is any indication, I am always compelled to change American spellings of words like "color" and "favorite" to "colour" and "favourite" so clearly they must bother me greatly. But in terms of word use, nothing bugs me more than the use of the word "addicting" in place of the word "addictive". THEY ARE NOT THE SAME WORD DAMMIT.
32) In one word, how would you describe yourself?
Contradictory.
33) Do you believe/appreciate romance?
Believe. But I also believe that not many people get the real deal these days. :/
35) Do you believe in God?
Yeah, why not?
36) Will you repost this so I can fill it out and do the same for you?
... this question is lame. I wish to eliminate it from this meme because it is utterly redundant.
