10 questions.

10 random questions for Anna.

Q. Who is your hero?
A. I hate this sort of question, because I never feel I can answer. I don’t have a proper Hero, I have a number of human beings who have inspired me in my 28 years, but nothing so solid as to be deemed a Hero. I’d have to list them.

Hunter S Thompson is on that list. He’s always the first one off the top of my head. Francis of Assisi. Queen Elizabeth 1. Probably queen Victoria as well. Strong female figures. What a weird list, eh?

Q. What is something weird about you?
A. I like Danny Elfman. I really really do. I love his voice, I love the quirky stuff he does musically. Id like to pick at his brain for a while. I think this is weird, because I don’t know anyone who likes Danny Elfman. You bring it up in conversation, and its like, ’ Hey yeah I really like what Elfman does.’ And they are like..who? Or..God why. I’m sure there are people are out there who like him as much I just don’t know them personally, so it makes me feel out of the norm. The norm is pretty dull, I must say.

Q. What is your oldest tradition?
A. Drinking Dr. Pepper and eating pizza. Does it show? *looks at self* yeah…

Q. Tell us something you don’t normally admit to.
A. I like to put on music and throw myself around the house like a stunt girl. Id be a great sword fighting, body throwing, and possibly dancing stunt girl. I hurt myself sometimes, its funny.

Q. What are you afraid of?
A. Death. Spiders. Giant Squid.

Q. Question you’d ask God if you were face to face?
A. I only get one question? That’s rubbish. Uhm.. Id ask for my money back.

Q. Favourite Guilty Pleasure?
A. Too many. I suppose Id have to go for something with longevity, a long term mind numbing guilty, sinful, pleasure. Like the fact that I adore Rock me Amadeus by Falco. Seriously, isn’t that disgusting? Yeah. I wanted to have his babies. I also really like zombie films, anything with ridiculous
gore in it. Charming, arent I.


Q. Name something you don’t like about your family.
A. Ha. Well, I don’t really dislike anything. Family isn’t something you can categorize so simply, being so many individualistic personalities packed together. Id probably say I don’t like it when large numbers of my family start buying me the same thing, like when I was younger they all bought me Unicorns, and you just wanted to rip your hair out after a while. Yes, I like unicorns. I also like other things, please ask me about them.

Q. What don’t you like about yourself physically?
A. The fact that gravity affects it. And I have dry skin. And weird feet. And really you shouldn’t ask a girl these sorts of things. And I look boyish. And young, too young. Like a cherub. I did warn you.

Q. What do you love about yourself?
A. I have a crazy, addictive laugh. I’ve got Anime eyes. I’ve got a great back, very muscular. My imagination is vast. I dream in colour. I used to write poetry, but I stopped that because it wasn’t entertaining anyone, especially me, but at least I could do it, and I appreciate that. I can sing. I can play piano and a bit of harp and a bit of dulcimer, and a bit of ethnic drums, and the spoons. Clever that, playing the spoons. I like that I talk to myself in 3rd person, it keeps the boredom at bay. I like that my cat thinks I’m a cat, or maybe he thinks he’s human. Either way, we’re best friends. I’m open minded, I feel, I breathe.
