I really like memes
1. What would you name your daughter and your son (assuming you even want kids) and why?
Oh man, i spend way too thinking about his. I want necessarily want names that have these beautiful flowery meanings; that is secondary. I want names that have extrinsic meaning (which usually mean famous people, characters or songs). Like the name Kate. I love that name. There are so many cool Kates, like Kate Bush, Kate Winslet, and Kate from the Ben Folds song of the same name. Cecilia is the patron saint of music and she totally kicks ass and breaks hearts in the Simon and Garfunkel song (that's how i interpret it). Another song name would be Aberdeen from the folk song that i like "The Rose of Aberdeen." I want to go to both Aberdeen (Washington and Scotland) some day and perhaps that will change my opinion but i really like that name. And i really like the name Eleanor for Eleanor Roosevelt and that kickass Franz Ferdinand tune. Man, i sound so frivolous. For boys, i really don't have names with quite as much bearing on meaning. I just like names that end with n. Tristan is a fave. For both sexes i really like the name "Paix" which is french for peace. Dude, i totally had that one chosen BEFORE Angelina adopted Pax.
And i would be open to whatever my spouse or whatever thinks too. There's my cautionary statement and I'm stickin' to it.
2. What is most attractive to you about guys?
Sense of humor. That is a biggie. I love a guy that i can laugh with. I have an interesting sense of humor and therefore a guy with a compatible sense of humor is integral. I like guys who have genuine ambition. I adore boys with sincerity. I adore boys who have more going on outside of themselves. I like boys who are adventurous. I like boys who are unconventional. I like boys who will take care of me and can take care of themselves, emotionally, mentally, physically and not necessarily monetarily. I like boys who are tall and lanky with nice eyebrows. Don't think i'm describing my ex-boyfriend. He only fits into about 75% of that, as far as i know. However, i don't think i will ever be able to find mr. perfect as i described him. but that is the nature that is life.
3. What is one thing that you've thought about that you KNOW it isn't right to think about (knifing babies, kicking dogs, death wishes whatever - I've heard some pretty extreme ones before)?
Sometimes when i read about extreme cases of disabilities in class and am perplexed of how to help them. Thoughts of "why not just euthanize them?" are present but are instantly fleeting. Immediate goals do not hold bearing of longterm consequences. I feel absolutely horrible for thinking this. This probably stems from the impersonal nature of doing case studies on t/th mornings.
4. What do you like best about yourself?
Apparently, i have a really healthy self-image. I have never felt myself as gorgeous or anything but i never let the opinions of society knife me mentally. I do maintain high self esteem and quite honestly it still kinda boggles me. However, this has allowed me to be continually unconventional and fairly independent. I seriously learning what it feels like to be independent nowadays. I am also very level-headed which i guess is something i can like though sometimes i wish i could just let go and be a doofus.
5. What do you think it means to have courage?
I think courage means not being afraid to sacrifice yourself if need be. Courage means walking into the fire with will and grace, and i don't mean the sitcom.
And i love Architecture in Helsinki. They're so much fun!
