Hmm...
Interesting questions...
1. You have been granted a Coat of Arms, which you yourself must create. What symbols/colours would you use, and why?
Damn! I'm SO no creative enough for something like that! Hm...
Colors: Navy Blue, Silver, Black, Dark Green and Gold. I think they make an elegant combination for some reason.
Symbols: A sword, a rose, a ring and a crown of leaves (I forgot what they were called but they're the ones always pictured on top of Julius Ceaser's head - you know which ones I mean?)
2. Do you believe it is possible to love someone unconditionally?
Yes, I highly believe that you can love someone unconditionally. My parents would be that example for me. They were together for 21 years and then one day my mom up and left my dad. He was like a man who'd lost their reason to live, it was so hard to be home, unable to help him, to give answers to his questions and make him feel better.
Its been two years and they've both settled into their new lives, their new routines, but I think deep down he still loves her. Sure, he's looking for someone else now, and I don't blame him, he's never been the solitary type, but I think his feelings for her will always run deeply.
I guess its not that great an example, but a lot of people are so in love that they're willing to go be hurt or betrayed or abandoned by their significant others and STAY with them because of that love. So yeah, I do believe in unconditional love.
*shrug* What can I say, I'm a highly sensitive, hopeless romantic. I cry easily in movies, with music, and still dream of my own prince charming. Unconditional love? I sure hope its true.
3. If you could unlock any given historical mystery (such as Atlantis, Stonehenge, etc), what would it be? Would there be a possibility of dissappointment? Do you believe any of the current theories?
I'll get back to this one... there are too many for me to pick just ONE right now.
4. What are your main motivations in life? What keeps you going (besides breathing)?
Fear
Honestly, I'm afraid of dying without really living. I want to experience everything. I want to live in a foreign country and learn the people's customs and culture. I want to see hundreds of places, more than I'll ever have time to see, but that doesn't mean I can't see a lot. I want to travel while I can, have fun, enjoy my youth while I have it, and eventually I want a family. I want to know what its like to hold a baby inside me, feel it grow from month to month until its born and then care for it for the majority of its life.
I want a family. A husband who'll be my best friend, my lover, my partner, and at times my biggest annoyance, but mostly someone I can share with as we grow old together.
I want children like I said before, not just a baby. I want to watch it grow, take its first steps and hear its first words. Take him/her to school and to girl/boy scouts, to group outings and buy them a prom dress or tux. Send them off to college, attend their wedding and congratulate THEM when they become parents. I want to spoil my grandchildren and tell them stories or sing them songs.
But I'm afraid of not doing all these things, for one reason or another. I don't want to get sick and die before I can do any of those things, or have a car accident. So I admit I'm afraid.
But despite that, for the very reason that I DON'T want to miss out on things, I don't let my fears stop me from experiencing new things. I've had my adventures and tried a lot of things and had a lot of fun so far and I'm glad, because that's the stage of life I'm in right now, the stage in which you're not a kid and just barely an adult, and if you screw up you're still put off as a dumb kid even though you're not one you know? So for now, I'm going to enjoy my school days and continue to have a good time. Hopefully I'll be going abroad soon and get another of my goals accomplished.
5. If you could live the life of a character in a fictional movie (ie, not a movie about a real person), who would you choose and why?
I must admit the first person to come to mind was Scarlett O'Hara, with her beautiful dresses and all. But her life's too tragic and overall not-so-interesting.
I can only think of Lara Croft for some reason.
Although I don't like the Tomb Raiders movies (I haven't even SEEN the things actually) I know what they're about and I can't imagine having things better. She's wealthy, (which is not necessarily the most important factor but it helps) athletic, intelligent, and gutsy. She gets into all kinds of trouble while discovering ancient artifacts, fighting off scum, and discovering the truth about ancient secrets and such. I'd love to lead her life.
Yes, I also know its not all fun and adventures, she has her share of troubles. But then, what good movie character doesn't have problems right? Without them the character would be dull and uninteresting.
