(no subject)
Motherfucker, that's five years ago and now I feel fucking old. New answers are in italics.
Real Name: Elizabeth
Nicknames that have been made up for you or you've been called: Lizzy, Liz, Astra, E-chan and the ubiquitous Lizard! And apparently Alden now calls me Queen Liz at work. Whatever.
Gender: female
Birthplace: San Francisco XD
Birthdate: June 26
Currently live in: Folsom, damn it San Francisco, in Parkmerced but looking to move to the Richmond in a couple of months.
Currently live with: My parents, my brother, a dog, a tarantula and a scorpion =P All by my lonesome. Louise is going to be my roommate by the end of the month though ^^
Have any brothers, sisters: I just answered this I have a Ben.
Eye color: brown
Height: hell if I know 5'4"ish
Contacts/glasses: glasses that I never wear Same, but I'm considering getting my eyes re-tested (since I'm almost positive they've become worse), getting a new pair of glasses and actually wearing this time. Contacts will never happen.
Hobbies: drawing, anime, rotting my brain out on the comp, rpgs, annoying my friends by endlessly talking about obsession-of-the-week (right now it's the FF6 ending) Haha, and my life has come full circle. Let's see... knitting, reading, videogames, learning about feminism, crafty stuff, zining, internet, cooking.
Do you play any sports?: no No, but I want to learn karate and yoga and dance. Start using my body more. Team sports will never happen.
Where are you?: UNIX class ~.~ In my room
What time is it: 10:30 1 AM on the dot.. man, I need to start sleeping earlier
Piercings: nope Just my ears
Tattoos: nope No, but I want one.
:School:
School name: Folsom High San Francisco State, thankyouverymuch.
Colors: blue and red Purple and gold!
Favorite Subject: Science this year.. overall I like English though I'm a journalism major, so I guess that's my favorite subject? It was always English in school.
Least favorite subject: math >.< Yes, math, forever and always. Too bad I NEVER HAVE TO TAKE MATH AGAIN!!!
Have you ever failed a class?: oh yes Haha, yeah.
If so what?: like I bother to remember them all =P Well, I can try... high school algebra (twice) and U.S. history (because my teacher was a dick). I retook chemistry and earth science, but I don't think I actually failed those, I just wanted a better (read: decent) grade.
Favorite teacher?: Mrs. B This last semester... well, I loved all my teachers for different reasons. Rochmis was just an all around awesome dude and really helped me improve my writing skills. Avery was hilarious, and Dowdy managed to make science interesting and easy, which is no small feat with me.
Least favorite teacher?: Ms. Gilbert Aw, I love Ms. Gilbert.. although it's probably easier to say that from the vantage point of someone who has already survived AP Art and will never have to deal with detention from her again. Well, since I already said I liked all my teachers, I shall make this question interesting by naming my least favorite teacher since I've been in college, who is hands down Renaker (haha, it took me a couple seconds to even remember his name). You gotta hand it to him though, it takes skills to actually make Vladimir Nabokov boring. To a room full of ENGLISH MAJORS (read: nerds), no less.
If you could have any teacher fired who would it be?: above I'd honestly be kinda sad if Renaker were fired, just because he's such a dweeby old dude who's easy to feel sorry for. Foster could definitely go though. Talk about a bad art teacher. Ms. Gilbert was mean, but drawing cubes in Art 1 was intellectually stimulating compared to what Foster put us through in Printmaking.
If you were a teacher what subject would you teach?: English Yup, English, but I'd end up like Mrs. Hillesland, working harder to teach my students about feminist thought than about the actual material.
Are you going to college?: probably I sure am, present tense.
If so, what one?: hell if I know SF State
Whats their mascot?: n/a Gators! Haha
What do you plan to major in?: no idea I'm already a journalism major
What do you want your career to be?: again, I dunno Well gee, I think after all this grueling work reporting and writing news stories, I'll follow my true calling and become a goat rancher.
Favorites:
Color: none really Pink!
Type of music: rock and jrock Psh, I don't even pretend to follow a particular genre anymore. I mostly listen to the Beatles, Bob Marley and the Katamari soundtrack. I'm even beginning to appreciate hip hop.
Song: Dir en Grey - Garden Feh, I don't know.
Group(s): I dunno, I have a lot The Beatles
CD: probably Dir en Grey - Macabre Oh, misguided freshman Lizard. Abbey Road or the White Album I guess.
Video: (assuming this is meaning music video) DeG - Garden again... or maybe Cage or.. gah, too many to pick from I don't even watch music videos. My idea of a music video is listening to "Katamaritaino" and watching my katamari unleash mass havoc upon the world.
Place to hang out: not here, that's for sure.. lol, I dunno, Mandie's house is good I don't really have "hang out" places in the sense that I'd go there to sit and talk with someone, although I'd like to find a cool neighborhood coffeeshop for that purpose when I move. I do like going pretty much everywhere in San Francisco though: Castro, Haight, North Beach, and the Mission mainly.
Holiday: Christmas, 4th of July My birthday. Yeah, I know that's not a holiday... maybe Christmas?
Season: summer! Fall
Day of the week: Saturday
Sport: geh If I ever got into it, probably karate.
Sport to watch: gah Baseball, mainly for the hot dogs
Family member: eh? Haha, favorite family member. They're all fucking insane and I somehow love them all anyway, but my dad is an annoying ass and my brother is a racist jerk, so I guess by process of elimination my mom is my favorite, with Piggles coming in second.
Store: Hot Topic Misguided freshman Lizard indeed. Then again, the place I shop most these days is Gap, which makes me just as misguided... I only really shop there because I spend so much time there, though. I really like Forever 21, Wet Seal, Charlotte Russe and H&M. With a lineup like that, don't ask me how I ended up working at Gap.
Hair style (for guys): um.. I don't know. I have this mental picture but I'm bad at describing guy hairstyles. =P Long and shaggy. Dreads and mohawks are also pretty sweet, if you can pull it off. I think Ryan would look good with a ponytail, but that's never gonna happen.
Hair style (for girls): ...I don't know I kinda like short and wavy... like Maryann's! But really whatever looks good on you. I want to get mine braided again.
Website: LJ, Megatokyo Eljay and feministing mostly.
Smell: food? lol I wear Victoria's Secret Heavenly, but I dunno about my favorite smell.
Food: Chinese Wow, Lizard, wow. Chinese is not a food. Well, uh, I like lots of things, but I do really love Indian food, and since I don't want to fall into the same trap of ignorance I apparently did back then, I'll specify that I would prostitute myself for the lamb tikka masala from my favorite Indian place. Tandoori chicken is also good.
Name: moo Like baby names? Ew, babies. Haha, I'm just kidding, but I am so not the kind of person to have names picked out.
Least favorite: huh?
Sandwich: tuna Wow, I was so gross back then. Maybe pastrami. Mmmm.
Favorite joke: don't have one yea this is dumb.
Poem: don't have one Still don't have one, and I don't even read much poetry anymore, but I was very into Sylvia Plath at one point in time.
Color of clothing: black, blue, red Pink, white, black, red
Word: moo Probably fuck. It's always the first thing that comes to mind when I'm asked this, anyway, although I think "sapphire" and "emerald" are pretty words.
Animal: dog
Pet: dog
Radio Station: I don't really listen to the radio
Television station: ...or watch TV
Quote: lalala
Quote about love: *doesn't have quotes*
Thing to do on a hot day: swim, drink lemonade It depends what you mean by "hot". If it's a hot day in San Francisco I'd go to the beach or the park, or spend the day outdoors shopping and eating at outdoor cafes. If it's a hot day in Folsom I'd stay inside with the air conditioning on, lol. Maybe go swimming. Go out after dark when it's comfortably warm.
On a cold day: sit inside wrapped up in blankets and... play FF6 XD Have dinner indoors. Drink hot tea.
On a rainy day: walk to Vics! lol Hot tea again, and read a Jane Austen or Isabel Allende novel
