*If you could live in any time period, what would it be and why?
I'm very fond of the late Victorian/early Edwardian (1860s-1919). It was the Golden Age, and there is just something about the fashion and the rules, the language, the hobbies and the history that interests me to no end.

Just being able to travel the world.
Either/Or

aggressive, though I really wish I were more passive, lol

generous as much as I can be, but I do have my moments

old fashioned, because I'm stuck in the past, but I'm very fond of modern things

alone
*Rules are Meant to be: Broken or Followed:
followed to the best of one's ability, but can be broken if need be
The Book/Movie and You
*Do you prefer the book or movie?
I'm a fan of both, but I think I like watching the movie over reading the book
*Favorite film version/actor or actress from a certain version:
I've seen quite a few versions, and think that both the 1994 and the 1978 versions are my favorite. I'm a little partial, though, to Margaret O'Brien as Beth and June Allyson as Jo in 1949.
*Who is your favorite character and why?
Jo-because I relate to her the most. I feel just as lost and confused as she does, and I'm very afraid of change, but want to be able to grow up.
Beth-because I aspire to be like her, to be able to have her compassion and her calming nature. And we both love music.
*Who is your least favorite character and why?
Honestly, I don't really have a least favorite, though I was never very fond of Meg's friends (the Gardiners or the Moffats).
*Do you have a favorite part of the movie?
One of my favorite scenes is Beth's death in the 1994 film version. I know, it's depressing, but there is just something about it...the beautiful music, the dialogue, the bond between sisters and being able to believe it will still be there even when one of them is gone. It's a hard scene to watch, especially now after having lost a family member, but I love it.
*Favorite quote and why?
"Over the many mysteries of female life, there is drawn a veil. Best left undisturbed."-John Brooke. I don't know why, but I have always loved this line, and actually quote it whenever I get the chance, lol.
"I love our home, but I'm just so fitful and I can't stand being here! I'm sorry, I'm sorry Marmee. There's just something really wrong with me. I want to change, but I...I can't. And I just know I'll never fit in anywhere."-Jo March. This quote is pretty much me to a T.
*If Jo were to write a thrilling operatic tragedy, what kind of character would you like to play? (i.e.: the damsel in distress, the hero, the villain, a magical creature such as a troll or hag, etc.)
if at all possible, I would love to be a damsel who, in the beginning was in distress, but in the end was able to save herself
Anything Else
