(no subject)
Unable to check the other professors' journals for 36 hours and I'm the last one to fill in a quiz.
Grab the book nearest to you, turn to page 18, find line 4. Write down what it says.
Er, there is no page 18 in "The Eyre Affair". Well, there's a page, it just hasn't anything on it. It's a blank page between chapters.
Instead, I offer a curiosity-piquing quote. "Within twenty seconds of Jane's kidnapping, the first worried member of the public had noticed strange goings-on around the area of page one hundred and seven of their deluxe hide-bound edition of Jane Eyre."
Stretch your left arm out as far as you can. What do you touch first?
OW! Well, touched a half-awake Pippin, which meant that she in turn touched me with her claws.
What is the last thing you watched on TV?
Hee. Probably the last episode of the CSI, 24 or Spooks marathons I had when I was at home for Christmas. Mum records the programmes for me while I'm at Hogwarts and I binge when I'm at home.
What is the last song you listened to?
"The First Time", by U2. My CD just finished playing.
WITHOUT LOOKING, guess what the time is.
1:15am. Past bedtime.
Now look at the clock, what is the actual time?
1:17am. Definitely past bedtime.
With the exception of the computer, what can you hear?
Pippin purring, now that she's back asleep after gouging my hand.
When did you last step outside? What were you doing?
Just after dinner. I stepped outside for a bit of a stretch and some fresh air.
Before you came to this website, what did you look at?
BBC main news page.
What are you wearing?
Muggle Aran sweater and jeans.
Did you dream last night?
Yes.
When did you last laugh?
About forty-five minutes ago, while marking assignments.
What is on the walls of the room you are in?
A lovely tapestry of "The Lady of Shallott", some black and white prints of London & Paris, bookshelves.
Seen anything weird lately?
This is Hogwarts. The abnormal is the mundane around here.
What do you think of this quiz?
Somewhat amusing.
What is the last film you saw?
Love Actually. Colin Firth, Hugh Grant, Liam Neeson...though I must admit that though those men are very fine, it's Alan Rickman that I really enjoyed seeing. Such a lovely voice, even if he does often play nasty characters.
If you became a multi-millionaire overnight, what would you buy first?
::snicker:: Probably just some rather fancy yarn.
Tell us something about you that we don't know.
I used to have a working grasp of sign language. Has been a long time since I used it, though, so can't remember much.
If you could change one thing about the world, regardless of guilt or politics, what would you do?
Like I even need to say it. Perhaps it would be something that would remove the need to worry about my and my parents' safety, simply because I'm a Muggleborn?
Do you like to dance?
Yes, in the privacy of my own rooms.
George Bush:
The reason Tony Blair will likely have a lot more time to spend with his family after the next election.
Imagine your first child is a girl, what do you call her?
Elisabeth Helen. Long story.
Imagine your first child is a boy, what do you call him?
Thomas Andrew. Ditto.
Would you ever consider living abroad?
Ooh, would love to. New Zealand, Australia, Canada...
Will you pass on this survey?
Considering I think I'm the last to do it...
