ETA: AN ACTUAL ENTRY, EVEN THOUGH IT'S SORT OF VAIN AND VAPID
So after spending several hours looking at tattoos, I got to thinking (yet again) about what I want done when I turn eighteen. And I know at least one thing that I'm sure I want, and it sounds stupid and childish, but I don't care. I want a ladybug somewhere. I'm not really sure where, but I know I want it somewhere on me. In second grade I was in a play called "Goin' Buggy", and it was all about insects. And I was a ladybug in it. Ever since then, my mom tells me I'm her ladybug.And I never want to forget about that. Plus, to be honest, ladybugs are damn cute. I've got it drawn out. I'm just not sure where it should go. My ankles are kind of shredded and disgusting with scars, so I don't even want to go there. My left arm has the same issue, as does my left hand. I don't want it on my shoulder, and I don't want it too close to any naughty bits -- that just doesn't seem right. I've thought about the back of my neck, but even there, I've got something else planned that has NOTHING to do with ladybugs ("CERTAVI ET VICI" - it means 'I have fought and conquered', and it is the Byrne family motto. And I like it.).
So, I'm asking you, flist, what you think. Because I'm not sure where I can put my goddamned ladybug, and I know that I want it.
Please excuse this vapidly vapid entry, I just have nobody to talk to about this. D:!
A. People who have been tagged must write their answers on their blogs & replace any question that they dislike with a new question formulated by themselves.
B. Tag 8 people to do this quiz & those who are tagged cannot refuse. These people must state who they were tagged by & cannot tag the person whom they were tagged by. Continue this game by sending it to other people.
1. How has LJ changed your life?
Slash and roleplaying, meeting a rather wonderful group of people, meeting a rather wonderful girl, having something only a few people I know irl read. It's become very personal and wonderful and it's made me more open to... everything.
2. What do you do before bedtime?
INTERNET, toof-brushing, usually reading or watching a movie on my iPod, and then I set a sleep timer and listen to music until I fall asleep or my iPod shuts off.
3. What will your dream wedding be like?
In the snow in a park in the middle of the night with nobody watching. ♥
4. What country in the world do you want to visit and why?
Either England or France. Perhaps the Netherlands. And I'd like to go to Prague, in the Czech Republic. For the people, the language, the culture, and the photography possibilities, respectively.
5. What is your least favourite thing to do on a Sunday afternoon?
Sit around at home with nobody to talk to.
6. Which is more blessed, loving someone or being loved by someone?
Neither is more than the other.
7. Do you trust easily?
With most people. When I get crossed, though, it's hard to regain my trust.
8. If the person you secretly like is already attached, what would you do?
Be upset with myself for liking them, probably. Write a lot of bad poetry (like I do in any situation that involves romance) and listen to a lot of sad music.
9. Is there anything that has made you unhappy these days?
Amelia is away, which is upsetting. I can't find a job. I have mad cramps.
10. What is your best quality?
My ~astonishing good looks. /sarcasm
11. Is being tagged fun?
I always like it when I'm tagged by name.
12. Who was your biggest influence this past year and why?
Vasia, Andrew, and Amelia. All in the way of music and movies to be blunt, though that's not the only way they've influenced me. It's just the greatest.
13. The journey or the destination?
Journey.
14. What kind of person do you think the person who tagged you is?
Pretty damn wonderful.
15. Would you rather be single & rich or married but poor?
Married and poor. It's my ideal life.
16. How many children do you want to have, if any?
If any, which I'm no longer sure about, two. Nick wants four, but I dunno if I can put myself through that.
17. What is your favourite book of the moment, and why?
Me Talk Pretty One Day by David Sedaris, because it's wonderful.
18. Would you go into that particular sex store if some relatives or colleagues are walking nearby, able to see you?
Not relatives, definitely not. But colleagues, probably.
19. Would you have 100% safe sex with a stranger for $10,000,000?
Probably.
20. What were your parents going to name you if you'd been born the opposite gender?
Declan or Patrick.
