| My own life ennui |
In an attempt to take my mind off my upcoming job interview, I decided to do a condensed (and slightly changed) version of an 'about me' list that I discovered on ennuiherself. I liked the list, and with my geeky self, I thought of Joey on Dawson's Creek when she asked Pacey "What's with the life ennui?" when he was sort of sulking and self-debating. At any rate, here's my version:
What I was doing five years ago?
2000 (in my twenties): In school, wondering what the hell I was going to do once I graduated. Drifting, trying to write, write, write. Wishing I could do it all over.
What I was doing one year ago?
2004 (still twenty something): Beginning my novel, thinking about getting a masters in creative writing. Joined a writing group and listened to horror stories about query letters and rejection letters.
5 snacks I enjoy:
Doritoes
Double Stuff Oreos
Krunchers
Popcorn
Fruit
5 books I want to read:
"The Da Vinci Code" (Dan Brown)
"Moby Dick" (Herman Melville)
"Velocity" (Dean Koontz)
"Memoirs of a Geisha" (Arthur Golden)
"How to Marry a Millionaire Vampire" (Kerrelyn Sparks)
5 things I'd do with a $100 million dollars:
Pay off my debts, my mom's debts, my sisters debts
Buy a house
Buy a car
Donate to many animal charities/start caravan to pick up hurt/homeless stray animals
Buy mom a nice apartment downtown
5 locations I'd run away to:
Paris
London
Italy
Japan
Ireland
5 bad habits I have:
Nail biting
Watching too much tv
Overeating
Wasting money
Lazy

5 favorite Anime:

I feel you on the Oreos, I'm trying to cut back myself. I'm on a watermelon kick as of right now.
I have wanted to go to Japan my whole life. I even took Japanese when I was in high school.
Sometimes I feel like I am the queen of laziness. I think I just want to do so many things at once, that I just give up and lay there. Ha ha.
I love CSI. I saw the character that plays Warrick this past Wednesday at a concert. He looks the same in person. The show Lost is also one of my favs.
Do you have a thing for vampires? I noticed that you like Hellsing, BtVS, and that book about marrying one. I can't say I blame you.
Sorry this was so long. =0/

Yep, big thing for vampires. It all started with Buffy the Vampire, where it grew into an obsession, then a way of life, practically. It consumed me.

Hate to say tis but skip Moby Dick. It is a great story but a lousy book. Or alternativly, read it as it was written, as a seriel, one chapter a week. then maybe it won't be so disjointed. sigh.

Hey, thanks for stopping by my blog and keeping the list going!
I highly recommend Memoirs of a Geisha. I considered that as a potential career for several weeks after reading. (J/K) :)
