In which I do my first meme
Back again, after an extended absence. Been busy, as my dead white men are increasingly demanding (but oh, so worth the effort!) But I digress. Although memes are not my thing, in general, this one looked like fun. (That I am procrastinating on my Euripides translation quota has nothing to do with it, of course.)
Here's how to do it: put your iTunes player (or whatever you use) on shuffle. Go through the following questions and press play. Use the song titles, in the order that they play, as the answers to the questions. (Since LJ is bloody awful with Macs, or perhaps since I am technically inept, I cannot format any of my text to be bold or italicised. So song titles are in quotes, and my comments are in parentheses.)
So, without further ado: The iTunes meme.
How does the world see me?
"Tu Dil Ki Khushi" (Hee! Little Miss Popular, c'est moi. *snort*)
Will I have a happy life?
"Strange New Cottage in Berkeley" (Hm. Well I like cottages, and I like Berkeley. They have a good Classics dept. That does sort of add up to a happy life.)
What do my friends really think of me?
"Living in the Past" (LOL! What a riot this meme is turning out to be. This is only too true, considering that my life's passions are dead languages and dead white men.)
Do people secretly lust after me?
"Radha Kaise Ha" (Um. Ok. I don't really know this song. I have a lot of random music on the comp. Feel free to interpret this one for me!)
How can I make myself happy?
"Slaves to Rome" (Tee hee. More Classical wonderful-ness. I suppose that my devotion to Latin does sort of make me a slave to Rome. So this means that I should immerse myself even more in Latin, then? I am being rather liberal with my "interpretations!")
What should I do with my life?
"Points of Authority" (Fits in with my professorial aspirations, wot?)
Will I ever have children?
"Cheating on You" (Riiight. Moving on!)
What is some good advice for me?
"Shelter from the Storm" (Presumably, I'm supposed to seek it. Makes sense, given my neuroses.)
How will I be remembered?
"Mannish Boy" (hahahahahhahahaha....I guess that some rather significant changes are coming up?!)
What is my signature dancing song?
"Heaven is a Place on Earth" (Hee. A fun nostalgia-inducing song.)
What do I think is my current theme song?
"God's Dice" (So true. Far too much is out of my hands right now.)
What does everything think my current theme song is?
"Mucky Fingers" (*innocent* I have NO idea what this could possibly mean...)
What song will play at my funeral?
"Looking at the World from the Bottom of a Well" (Ha! A watery grave, eh?)
What type of men/women do I like?
"Svefn-G-Englar" (Well...this is by Sigur Ros, and I have no idea what it means. Perhaps that I'm into Icelandic boys?)
What is my day going to be like?
"Sunshine of Your Love" (Oh good. I could use some of that.)
(I cannot believe how much random music is on my iTunes, and also a bunch of stuff with which I am unfamiliar with...)
Go do the meme now. You know you want to.
