All characters are fictional, right? They exist in your head, and you tell them what to do and when to do it. So what would happen to you if you woke up one day to find your character standing on your doorstep. How would you react? Would you have anything to appologize for? What, if anything, would you do together?
And for those of you who play characters that are not fictional, what if you met the real person?
[OOC: That would probably be THE all-time coolest thing to ever happen, not only because John's a creation of my head, but also because I've really come to love who he's developed into since I made him. Plus, the fact that he's shy, sensitive, sweet, smart as heck, and a budding musician who suspiciously looks like Jason Mraz certainly just adds to the whole deal. I would apologize for making him SO shy and for making him have a stutter when he gets flustered or uncomfortable. I would also apologize for making him blush so darn much. I figure he'd probably blush some more and then start stuttering about how it's ok.
I'd want him to stick around long enough to tutor me in my last science requirement at college. And to also show me how to play some of his songs on the guitar. And then we'd watch Star Wars (all 6!) and start with Episodes 1 - 3 and make fun of Hayden Christensen's bad deliveries and plot ways to fictionally kill off Jar Jar Binks. But then we'd make up for it by watching Episodes 4 - 6, and everything would be ok in the galaxy... both here and far, far away.]

Are you:
A. a morning person
OR
B. a night owl?
I'm both. I'm a morning person by default... kinda just comes with the territory. I figure I can get more done if I get up early... I blame my sister Cassie on this one. She was also such a freaking morning person, and would always be making noise and drying her hair and doing whatever else when we were growing up, so I HAD to get up when she was up. Eventually... I just started waking up on my own and I think it stuck.
But college... isn't really conducive to being that much of a morning person. Unless... it's carrying over from the night before. With persuasion, and a lotta beer, I can easily become a night owl. And even like it enough to not complain about how tired I am.

Show us some of your achievements! Bring out your trophies, your proud moments, your fourth grade spelling award - anything goes.
In two months, something sorta resembling this will be my most important accomplishment thus far... Except. Y'know. With MY name on it. And it'll be from the Gallatin School of Individualized Study... and I'll have a BA in Pre-Med Studies and the Philosophy of Medicine, and there'll be a little thing underneath saying "Summa Cum Laude." That's... all sortsa accomplishment right there.
Getting into both UCLA and UCSF Med Schools is probably my BIGGEST accomplishment... in terms of academia, anyway.
But... in terms of... private accomplishments... Um. I'd say sharing some of the things found in this *holds up a beaten up, marble notebook* has been... it's been monumental, for me. And being honest? And upfront? And telling her I wrote the song about her? Let's... let's put it this way: my room mates don't even KNOW I play guitar... so, sharing a song with someone when I'm terrified of having her laugh in my face/give me a nasty paper cut with the notebook/walk away/even remotely LIKING it? Big deal. Huge deal.
03/11 - Thursday
You've been given the opportunity to take a vacation. The trip can be any length of time and you can go anywhere you would like. Where would you go? How long would you spend there? What souvenirs would you buy?
I'd go to Australia and New Zealand. I was gonna say Thailand but I've heard some serious horror stories and I'm not willing to risk waking up with snakes and crazy-ass bugs in my house. And I know Australia's got some crazy animals (like the 10 most poisonous snakes in the world or something) but... it's so cool!
The trip would HAVE to be at least, like... two weeks. Cause it's such a big flight that... going for a week seems stupid. So, like, two weeks... or three. Two and a half maybe. Anyway, I'd go... everywhere. All over the main island, Tasmania, all parts of New Zealand... but I'd stick to all the surfing hot spots. I totally just Googled it, and it'd be: Western Australia (that's... pretty vague, Google), South Australia, Victoria, Tasmania, New South Wales, and Queensland. I'd wanna surf in EVERY place at LEAST once, ten if I really dig it, and then call it a day.
I'd bring back some gnarly scars from getting beaten up on the reef. And I'd probably try to smuggle a Tasmanian Devil if I could find one (I hear they're endangered)... And then get arrested. So maybe just a keychain or something. I'll take requests.
So, who's sending me and when am I going?

Continuing in this morbid vein, list the five most likely ways your character will die. Be as serious, gory or humorous as you like. For bonus points, add the LEAST likely way your character will die.
1. Car accident somewhere in New York City.
2. Plane crash on my way to or from California.
3. Random act of violence somewhere by Central Park.
4. Drowning/hitting head on rock then drowning while surfing.
5. Alcohol poisoning at a frat party closer to graduation.
Least likely: Self-surgery gone terribly, terribly wrong.
