[date] July 9, 2004
[Current Mood] Frittering
[Current Hair] Long, down (w/ some of it back in a clip). mciac would be so proud... ;)
[Current Annoyance] How early one has to leave Heidelberg to get back to Mannheim the same night; though staying over here will be fun, as well.
[Current Smell] Nothing in particular. Unless it means me, in which case, probably the strange scent that German Pantene Pro-V "Locken Pur" (="Hydrating Curls") has, in contrast to its scent in all other countries.
[Current thing you ought to be doing] Nothing! Yay. Or working, but I've done my necessary work for the day. I'm so good. (Erm.)
[Current Desktop Picture] I think nothing. It's not my computer.
[Current Worry] Latin 1....
[Current Crush] Does my girlfriend count?

Level Two - Describe
[The shoes you wore today] White New Balance 852's, rather dingy from being worn most every day, starting to fall apart superficially just a tad.
[Your weakness] Food... distractions....
[Your fears] Not being good enough at something I need to be good at (which includes not making it as an academic); also, on an entirely different level, rape.
[Your perfect pizza(s)] I adore Canandian bacon & pineapple, but I don't know if that's my perfect pizza. Lots of tomato sauce and a thin crust, for a start.
[Most exciting moment of the day] Getting out of class? ;)
[Your perfect day] Hanging out with dear friends, and it preferably being sunny.
[Your perfect date] Hmm. Dinner + concert is quite high on my list so far, but I think dinner + opera might be even better.

Level Three - Tell...
[Your most overused phrase on AIM] A specific phrase, I don't know, but I certainly use :) way too much.
[Your thoughts first waking up] Oh, Germany, right.
[Your best physical feature] Hair.
[Your bedtime] So depends. At home, by and large, 1 or 2am. Here, during the week, more like 10:30.
[Curfew] Pshaw. Never had one.
[Your greatest accomplishment] Uh. Uh? Uh. No clue.
[Your most missed memory] There are lots of them, but one memory that always sticks out in my mind: I was eight, and it was summer, and I was sitting in the car with our dog waiting for my parents, and it smelled of sun and I could hear bees buzzing and it was so peaceful. I cherish that memory.
[Your most embarrassing moment] Coming in singing during a piano-only take when we were recording for "Hook"....
[Favorite Movie] "What's Cooking?" and Branagh's "Much Ado About Nothing." There are others too, of course.
[Favorite song] No idea. I love so many. Vague ideas of it maybe being a Joan Baez song, or at least something she sings.
[Type of music] Classical, if I had to choose one.


Level Four - You prefer...
[Guys or Girls] Girls. Well, for dating, at least. ;)
[Pepsi or Coke] Diet, either; if it's not diet, then probably coke, as pepsi makes me start laughing hysterically. And I can't stand PepsiOne (aka PepsiMax).
[McDonald`s or Burger King] Burger King, in England; I like chicken mcnuggets, though.
[Single or group dates] Single.
[adidas or nike] New Balance.
[Chocolate or vanilla] Chocolate!
[Cappuccino or coffee] Cappuccino, 'cause I love the foam. I'll happily just drink steamed milk.
[Beach or the Pool] Beach, though at the pool I have the advantage of not ending up with sand all over me.
[tall or short] Me? I'm short. (Umm, except I'm not short, Zoe. No, really.)
[shoes or slippers] Bare feet. Or my lambskin slippers. Outside, shoes, though.
[staying home or going out] Both, really.

Level Five - Do you...?
[smoke] No

[Get motion sickness] No, except for if I'm reading in the car on a curvy road.
[Think you're attractive] Yes
[Think you're a health freak] No
[Get along with your parents] Usually. Until I'm around them for too long. :)
[like roller coasters] Yeah. Don't get to ride them often enough, though.
[like thunderstorms] By and large. I went through a period of not liking them, when I was at summer camp, but I think this was really a manifestation of homesickness.
[Play an instrument] Guitar. And sing, of course.

Level Eight - Preferred gender
[Best eye color?] I tend to think I like one thing, and then end up being attracted by something completely different, so probably anything.
[hair color?] Red, in principle, but that's so completely irrelevant to my actual tastes.
[piercings] Earrings are fine, though mildly bemusing to me, but I'd be a bit iffy about other piercings.
[tattoos] I think that tattoos on the small of the back are incredibly sexy, but I don't know if I'd actually like one on my partner.
[Short or long hair?] Long.
[Best height] Approximately my height.
[Best article of Clothing] *shrug*
[Features] Lips, hands, eyes, all of the above....

[Where do you want to end up] California.

[Current Crush] Does my girlfriend count?

i think if i can play that card, you can, too.

[liv]

[Think you're attractive] Yes
Yay! You've been denying it for far too long!

[darcydodo]

No, I have never said that I'm not attractive! I simply deny (with full justification, I think) that I'm ridiculously gorgeous. You seem to fail to note the distinction.

[darcydodo]

Well, then. :)
