SO THE WAY THAT OTHER PEOPLE DID THIS IS SMARTER THAN WHAT I THOUGHT OF. WELCOME TO MY OWN ANSWERS TO MY MEME.
On the first day of Christmas my true love asked of me: What one quote, from anywhere, means the most to you?
"No one fails when they do their best." I know it's dorky and cheesy, but it was my junior school (for those non-UK residents, that's ages 8-11) motto and it's stuck with me ever since. Sad thing is, the headmistress was forced to change it in my last year because, and I quote; 'it has the word fails in it'. I wasn't impressed and I can't even remember what the new one was, so that just shows how much of an impact it made.
On the second day of Christmas my true love asked of me: What are your two earliest memories?
Swimming in my nan and grandad's pool. I dunno how old I was, but considering my grandad died when I was 3 I must've been tiny. And probably not swimming on my own steam either.
We moved when I was five; I remember on the last day in our old house we were checking all the cupboards and mum opened one and there was suddenly ANTS EVERYWHERE IN THE CUPBOARD. Even now they freak the shit out of her, and it's been almost 14 years.
On the third day of Christmas my true love asked of me: What three inanimate objects could you never be without?
My laptop, my phone, and the teddy bear I've had since I was a foetus. I know, aren't I cool.
On the fourth day of Christmas my true love asked of me: What four things don’t you like about your life right now?
I haven't touched any of my Uni work which is due in in a week. ._.
My grandmother has been in hospital for the past two months and it doesn't look good.
I still don't know how to drive.
I still have serious issues sleeping away from my own bed.
On the fifth day of Christmas my true love asked of me: What five things do you like about your life right now?
I love my Uni course.
I'm getting my foot in the door with radio.
Dad's business is doing well, at last.
I recieved more chocolate-coated turkish delight for Christmas than I know what to do with.
I'm finally earning money again, and more than before.
On the sixth day of Christmas my true love asked of me: Who are your six favourite fictional characters? (Can be from books, TV, film, anything.)
Harry Potter (Guess where from ;D)
Morgan Finch-Fletchley (scottish_play's OC)
BEEDLEBEEDLE. THAT COUNTS AS ONE.
Percy Jackson (Again, guess where from :D)
Leo Valdez (Heroes of Olympus - The Lost Hero)
Charlie Pace (Lost)
On the seventh day of Christmas my true love asked of me: What seven things are you looking forward to, or hoping to achieve, in 2011?
POKEMON BLACK AND WHITE FUCK YEAH.
Passing my first year at Uni.
Get over my confidence/security issues. Though that's more of a long term thing.
My grandma getting better. Please.
Actually kind of looking forward to turning 19. That'll probably change the closer May gets, though.
A higher standard of drawing ability.
To actually finish a writing project. Either a bigbang or chaptered fic or whatever.
On the eighth day of Christmas my true love asked of me: Which eight people would you invite to a tea party? (Real, fictional, dead-and-miraculously-alive-again, whoever!)
My grandad.
My nan, so she could be with the above.
severedscythe
scottish_play
callisenn
downloadstone
Jaja
Froggy.
Damn that's an interesting tea party. Insane online friends interspersed with one-alive-one-not family members. xDDDD
On the ninth day of Christmas my true love asked of me: What nine pairings do you ship?
Elena Gorski/Leo Angelus FOREVER. <3 (scottish_play and severedscythe's OCs)
Sirius/Remus (Harry Potter)
Nick/Greg (CSI)
Percy/Annabeth (Percy Jackson)
Leo/Jason (The Lost Hero (NOT LEO ANGELUS.))
Dean/Seamus (Harry Potter)
Charlie/Claire (Lost)
Bella Swan/any form of painful death. (That counts, right? She's also interchangeable with Edward.)
Peter/Caspian (Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian)
SIMBA/NALA
On the tenth day of Christmas my true love asked of me: What ten personality traits, habits and quirks do you have? (Basically a mix of those three to make ten, or ten of one and nothing of the others. c: )
I've recently developed the habit of cracking my thumb, index and middle fingers without my hands touching each other.
I have a huge anxiety problem that only shows itself when I don't know what to do in a certain situation.
I seem to have a large problem in the sense that I start writing things and never finish them.
I gnaw the inside of my mouth a lot.
I like to be the most positive and funny person I can because I like to think that people will return the favour when I'm feeling down.
I can still touch my head with my feet.
Due to an internal problem I can get hold of and wiggle my kneecaps.
I am a Nintendo junkie. Specifically Pokemon.
I cannot stand people eating crisps (or chips to any Americans or whoever else calls them that) with their mouths open. Even if it's just the first bite. Especially then because the sound makes me want to punch the offender.
The sensation of falling and the resulting pain is my biggest phobia.
On the eleventh day of Christmas my true love asked of me: If you look around right now, what eleven things do you see at first glance?
My TV
My new DSi
A box of Thornton's Turkish Delight
A JLS poster
My collection of beanie babies
Various pokemon posters
A section of wall for memories, where I've blu-tacked things like cinema ticket stubs, train tickets, Ascot racing reciepts, things like that.
Curtains
The radiator
A wii remote
My laptop
On the twelfth day of Christmas my true love asked of me: Which twelve words would you use to sum up yourself? (Can be in sentence form or twelve individual words.)
Happy
Insecure
Dorky
Chocoholic
Tee-Total
Small
Falling-phobic
Easily panicked
Positive
Anxious
Procrastinator
Pokenerd.
