so, belated Hi to flist, you people are amazing =) my first post ever and so not to make it completely pointless here's a meme to know each other better. Sorry if the format sucks, i'm just getting used to all this...
Leave me a comment and I'll respond by asking you five questions so I can get to know you better. Update your journal with the answers to the questions. Include this explanation in the post and offer to ask other people questions.
sunnytyler001 asked me this
1. How old are you?
Nineteen (but feel like much older XD)
2. What is your favourite Jane Austen book?
Emma, absolutely, I know no one seems to like it over P&P but I do. Look for reasons in the questions below))
3. If Rose had been free to choose, who would have she chosen: Ten 1, Ten 2 or Nine?
Well, it's Rose, after all, she would never be able to choose between the Doctors because she can't bear hurting any of them and she loves all 3 of them. They are all HER Doctor,after all. I know I love her with Ten1 the most (yep, that's me, call me shallow but I prefer TARDIS over slow path and TimeLord phisiology over human and never been a fan of domestic myself and I'm a DT fangirl (so that excludes Nine) ;)) but truly in-character Rose would never be able to choose that's why I forgave Ten1 for doing this for her=)
4. What is your real name?
In English it's Catherine (it sounds more like Ekaterina in Russian) and I prefer shot variants - like Kate (or more Russian-like Katya).
5. As a Jane Austen fan, did you like Billie Piper as Fanny Price?
As much as I adore Billie Piper...but no, I hate that one, adaptation, I mean, seems to do VERY little with the book and Fanny is just not right, looks like all she's doing through the film is running and I know it's not her fault, it's the scriptor's and director's, but still Frances O'Connor is incomparable for now (I know she's older than Fanny's supposed to be, but her Fanny looks like she HAS a character and personality and Billie's looks quite flat and OOC) I've seen 1983 version and also didn't like it very much because it's boring and not pretty XD the only thing I like about 2007version is the pretty that is Edmund and the pretty that is Billie XD IDK maybe if I had seen it first, not after two more versions, I'd like it more but I'm always picky when it comes to Austen adaptations...
hazelwho asked me this
1. Do you ship Booth/Brennan? What's your favorite Bones moment?
of course, who else to ship in Bones? XD well, maybe Angela and Hodgins) Oh, I don't know, they have so plenty of deep moments and cute moments and funny moments, I loved all hugs and hurt/comfort moments and we-are-not-a-couple-we-are-just-arguing-like-one, definitely, but I didn't rewatch episodes so I can't tell more precisely... the moment that made me ship them,tho, it's from season One episode 15 when he saved her despite being injured and he cut her binds and her hands turned out around his neck and they hugged fiercely and then she didn't go on a date and went to the hospital to keep him company instead <3 the beauty of Bones - too many moments to pick, I wish we had as much with Doctor/Rose... and we even got an AU story with sex, kisses, marriage and pregnancy, that's why I regret so much that Rose wasn't in Human Nature, it could've been her and John images *sigh*
2. What's your favorite Jane Austen novel and why?
As I said in the second question, it’s Emma. The main reason why is of course Emma/Knightly ship, I adore them together, they are witty, argumentative, affectionate and also best friends and absolutely oblivious about their completely requited feelings ;D. Mr. Knightly deserves to be mentioned also because he is my favourite literature male character ever and his love for Emma is so touching because he can see all her flaws (unlike all the others) but he still adores her and is totally wrapped around her little finger and he is really dashing and attractive but he isn’t of that kind of men who use that as a weapon, in fact, it never even occurred to him that he wouldn’t have to win Emma over, he’s very kind and generous, not at all a snob despite of his very high situation and also a little awkward but cute (OK, I admit that now I so see DT as a perfect Knightly but I fell for him while reading the book, before I knew about DT and Jeremy Northam is still totally awesome in that film :D).
As for Emma I really love her too, I know Jane Austen said that no one was gonna love Emma save for the author herself, but I did, she is smart, beautiful and kind-hearted but she is also human so she makes mistakes, the most common mistakes for all girls of all times - she fooles herself, believes in deceptions created by her own mind, I saw a part of myself in her,too. So, Yeah, I love Emma. P&P is also good, of course, and Persuation. I also have a soft spot for Northanger Abbey because I like the satire and Henry Tilney (especially as portrayed by JJ Field).
3. Which character from House would you most and least like to hang out with?Well, my favourite was always Cameron so I’d like to talk to her, and maybe Wilson because he is very nice to everyone, I always hated Foreman (because he is arrogant and boring) and Taub (boring) and Thirteen(bad acting). I’m not sure If I want to meet House because it’s funny when he is prick with others but not funny to be on receiving end of his mockery.
4. If you could travel anywhere in the world, where would you go first?
Nothing original here, it would be London, and UK in general, always wanted to see this country all over (Scotland, Wales, England and Ireland), especially since becoming a Janeite=) and also we had classes of British culture and history and political structure and places of interest in high school so of course it’s tempting to visit.
5. What music do you like to listen to?
Oh, I have no preferences in this area, never even had a favourite singer or a band, most likely I'd listen sondtracks from favourite movies or tv-shows or songs from fanvids I liked because they begin to associate with my beloved characters. And in general, If I heard a song and liked it I don’t care of what style it is…
