THIS OR THAT
(Please provide a short explanation as well)
09. Optimistic or pessimistic? Pessimistic. I have a really hard time keeping a good outlook on life.
10. Leader or follower? Follower. I wish I could say I was a leader but I'm just not. On the other hand I don't follow just anyone or anything.
11. Introvert or extrovert? Introvert. I care about other people but as far as really reaching out, no.
12. Mature or immature? Immature. I know when to bring out my inner adult, at least I hope so, but... immature, essentially.
13. Violent or peaceful? Peaceful. I try to stay out of arguments.
14. Selfish or altruistic? Altruistic, I hope. I can be a little wrapped up in myself but I really do care about other people and I do things for them.
15. Rude or polite? Polite. It takes a lot to get me to be rude.
16. Eat here or take away? Eat here. If I wanted to be home I'd stay there.
JUMP DOWN THE HOLE
17. How do you present yourself in the company of friends? If they're really close friends I try to just relax and be myself, meaning I talk too much. Otherwise I'm told I can be very nervous and quiet.
18. And in the company of your enemies? I go to great lengths not to get near my enemies. If I have to be around someone who just can't stand me I tend to put up with everything until I just snap and say something rude. Then I apologize. This is why I try not to get near them.
19. And what about the company of strangers? I'm very nervous and quiet. On occasion I'll try to introduce myself but I'm always worried I'm failing.
20. How do you react to people insulting your beliefs (your faith or your opinions in general)? If it's a really dearly held belief, and/or they're implying only an idiot would hold it, I'll probably argue and try to present evidence of why I think they're really messed up. (Unless I think they're just making trouble pointlessly and then I'll try to walk away.)
21. And people insulting your loved ones? If someone insulted my family I'd react pretty badly. If someone I love honestly does something wrong I won't deny they did it, but if someone is truly cruel to them that hurts me too and I tend to get angry at the person.
22. And what about people insulting you? I take it badly but usually I just get crushed and go away rather than fight.
23. Are you better at coping with physical or mental pain? Physical. I'd much rather be in physical pain than mental.
24. Are you better at defending yourself physically or verbally? Verbally. I've never really had to try to do it physically.
25. Do you prefer to assault people physically or verbally? Neither. If I have to I'll do it verbally.
THE TOWN THAT TAKES ALL
26. Which Silent Hill character do you LEAST identify with and why? Dahlia, because I'm a mom and she's like the anti-mom.
27. Time to introduce you in a CUT SCENE! Are you the protagonist or somebody they meet? If you are the protagonist, then what brought you here? If not, what will you be found doing and how will you react to meeting that other person? I'm someone they meet. I was also brought there, probably due to some weird experience or belief, but I'm not the main character. They find me praying to whoever I can think of to get out and possibly squinting at a map. I feel sorry for them because they're there too and try to help them.
28. Will you stay alone or join somebody else as soon as possible? Join someone, if I trust them at all and they let me.
29. Flames, eyes, dolls and what not - how do you think your inner turmoil will manifest itself on the outside?
Religious symbols. (I have this kind of love-hate relationship there which is a long story.) And babies.
30. Congratulations, you are now deceased! Next to your corpse, written in blood there is one sentence. What does it say?
despite yourself you were fashioned, and despite yourself you were born, and despite yourself you live, and despite yourself you die It's from the Talmud...
31. And which set of lyrics, either from a song or poem would you like us to remember you by?
---Even losing you (the joking voice, a gesture
I love) I shan't have lied. It's evident
the art of losing's not too hard to master
though it may look like (Write it!) like disaster.

32. Finally, feel free to include one picture (no larger than 600 x 600) or a description of yourself.
I'm a large ordinary-looking middle-aged woman with dark curly hair and... oh, OK, here's me:
