*Who was your very first love and why?

Jones. I loved him in that same, painful way that Helga loved Arnold. I loved him because he was silly and smart in a sort of dumb way. I loved it when he played the violin or trumpet, because it was always so beautiful and I loved how bonded we seemed to be back then. I hate that I never got to kiss him and that he grew up, while I stayed stumbling behind - watching him leave. And I love (and I hate) how sometimes I miss him still (but only when the sun is shining).

How do you style your hair?

I straighten it if I’m going to class, but mostly just let it dry naturally on weekends. My hair can be either a sweetheart or an asshole depending on the day.

What are you wearing now?

Pajama pants with penguins on them, a tank top and a sweatshirt.

Do you snack a lot or stick to "meal times"?

I stick with ‘meal times’ for the most part. I feel like a fattie if I start snacking.

What's the last thing you read/are currently reading?

Thirteen Reasons Why, Jay Asher. It was okay, but was more plot driven than character driven and that’s really been bugging me as of late.

What three things would you save from a fire? (Presuming all living things could save themselves.)

Cuddles (teddy bear), Queenie (doll baby), Nintendo DS. Trying to lug my computer out, would probably be a bad idea.

Who was the last person you hugged?

Natalie? It was just a half hug though. Before that it was saying good-bye to the family and before that it was good-bye to Kate and Sarah. College is sad sometimes. :(

What is your current fandom/obsession/addiction?

LOL. Strangetown, Here We Come it would be probably. I think that’s pretty damn obvious. Um, other than that I’ve been kind of fangirling over iCarly (the second season is SO MUCH funnier than the first) and I’ve been missing Kingdom Hearts.

What was the last thing you ate today?

Potato chips and French onion dip along with some mac and cheese!

What was the last thing you said aloud?

“God, she’s CRAZY.” In response to this stupid reality show me and my roommate were watching.

What websites do you always visit when you go online?

TOO MANY. Uhhh - Livejournal, Deviantart, Facebook, Email, Webcomics.

Last thing you bought:

Over $200 dollars worth of painting supplies. D:

What are you listening to right now?

I Will Prevail, Hey Arnold! (Simmons and Wartz = BFF RIGHT?)

What's the last song that got stuck in your head?

“Cowboys” Counting Crows (Cal’s theme song!)



‘If I was a hungry man with a gun in my hand
and some promises to keep…’

‘And I believe she loves you because you never make her feel like anything.’

‘This is a list of what I should have been
but I’m not’

‘She says she doesn't love me like she's acting
But it's as if she isn't talking
Because Mr. Lincoln's head is bleeding
On the front row while she's speaking.'



If you could have any superpower, what would it be?

Flight. I have ALWAYS wanted to fly. My oldest character ever - who was directly based on me, except her personality is NOTHING like mine is and she doesn’t really look like me, but she evolved from me so that should count for something - could fly. The best thing was that she kind of learned as I got older. In the beginning she had to ride on her weapon to fly, but then she got training so that she could fly without the extra help.

What is your favorite weather, and why?

Warm, summer nights when the window is open and the air smells so damn tasty. It reminds me of baseball and curtains and darkness and I LOVE IT.

How are you?

Lonely. I’m really missing my Lebtown friends right now.

What is your guilty pleasure?

Chocolate and Coke. Probably coke the most though. I’m totally a caffeine addict thanks to that stuff. Also the best thing in the world is working at a place that serves fountain soda and you get one of those first shots of pure syrup when you go to fill yourself a cup. I’m serious, it was one of my favorite things about working at the Lazer Factory.

Say something to the person who tagged you.

Josh, you are ridiculously awesome and I love talking to you and reading all your random posts even if I don’t understand some of the stuff you go on about (meshing/retexturing/that stuff confuses the heck out of me). I also think it’s adorable how you obsess over accents, and I love your constant use of ‘fresh’ and ‘delicious’, because I don’t know anybody else who does that and it’s cute as hell.




a/n: I was tagged by smjoshsims and I do love me some memes.

Uh, I tag anyone who wants to do it? I HATE TAGGING PEOPLE IT MAKES ME FEEL LIKE A BAD PERSON.

This was so fun to read! Your personality really shines through. :)

The description of your first love brought tears to my eyes. And the summer nights through the windows! OMG those are my favorite too!

iCarly is an absolute hoot. My older three kids were watching it one afternoon and just totally cracking up, so I had to see what was so funny. I was completely sucked in. I LOVE Carly's clueless brother (I forget his name because I fail) but to me, he makes the whole show! :D

I might have to do this meme. It seems like a really good one.

:D

[smjoshsims.livejournal.com]

Aww, your description of your first love was so precious. It made me think of my first love. ;_;

Why are our families so nonhuggy? IT MAKES ME SAD. (We should hug each other bb.) <3

And AWW Thanks bb! I'm literally blushing right now. I love talking to you too, you're awesome as hell, and your drawings are too delicious for words.

And LOL I am the only person who says fresh and delicious, aren't I? I can't even pass it off as my regional dialect, I tend to just say random things.

:D

[strange-tomato.livejournal.com]

My family is really huggy. Kissy too. You can't leave the room or go to bed for the night without a hug and a kiss. It's nice. Some people might find it a bit much, but I like it.

You really are the only person who says fresh and delicious. It's such a Josh thing to say. I love it. :)

[leskuh.livejournal.com]

Haha, I love being able to inject bits of myself into everything that I write online. Sometimes it's so hard to really get the feel of a person. Also, I just love to talk. A lot. XD

I'm over him, but I still think fondly of him. I was so much closer to my 'dream' version of him than the person that he really was anyway. But still, he's a good guy and my first love and that means a lot.

I love summer so much. My sister gets pissy when the air condition isn't on, but I like it better when we leave the windows open.

iCarly is really growing on me. The guy who directs it is the same person who did Drake and Josh, so I'm not surprised that it's good.

Spencer! I have such a crush on him! The guy who plays him is so awesome at physical comedy.

DO IT! It's fun! And you get to replace the not fun questions!

[strange-tomato.livejournal.com]

Those first loves. *sigh* I relived mine through Jill in my story (could you tell?). He was such a Ripp too, in many ways.

This was fun to read. Hmmm, maybe I will post mine. (I wrote it up, then had second thoughts.)

[leskuh.livejournal.com]

First loves sort of always break you, huh? I was in love with him for like... EVER. And I'd always run into him in the strangest places - Hershey's KISSING TOWER for one. It was so random and I was so tiny, but I was so very sure that we were meant to be together.

Well, Kayla's the non-huggy one. The others usually put up with my affectionate ways. I'm a VERY huggy person, myself. I love cuddling and snuggling and just being close to other people.

*HUGS YOU*

Heee, I made you blush! That's too cute!

I love when you say fresh and delicious, because it's just a 'you' thing. I like being able to associate people with various things so I really associate you with those words. I associate Strange with Ripp and the word 'palette' for some reason - also artsy stuff in general. Cindy makes me think of blonde hair and my family, because I associate her with children and family in general. Van reminds me of purple and comment hijacking, because she always seems to pop up in a random thread, which makes me laugh. And there's lots of others, but if I keep doing this I'll go nuts.

[smjoshsims.livejournal.com]

I would go crazy if I were in your family. ALL THE HUGS AND KISSES I COULD WANT?! *never leaves the room*

I'm the only one who says it in real life too. I guess it is a me thing. :P

[leskuh.livejournal.com]

I could definitely tell, but mostly on account of you saying as much. First loves are... something else. You don't forget 'em. And you always sort of love 'em. And you always sort of hate 'em. But yeah, you don't forget.

POST IT! You could FO it if you don't want everyone to see it?

[strange-tomato.livejournal.com]

It's funny, though, when you're mad at one of your parents and you still have to screw up your stupid face and kiss them goodnight. :P

My grandparents are especially kissy. I have to kiss them hello and goodbye everytime I see them.

I love that you say it in real life too. :)

[strange-tomato.livejournal.com]

Yes, it is true. :) Mine also got married on my birthday. And it WASN'T TO ME! *sob* No, really... I was over it by that time, but it still felt very odd.

I did post it. I don't know... it was pretty candid, and I felt embarrassed for half of my flist to even see it. Oh well.

[smjoshsims.livejournal.com]

Ugh, I couldn't agree more. First loves change you, for better and for worse.

I used to do that too! Whenever I saw my crush anywhere I'd go crazy and try to make more of it than it was.

*HUGS YOU BACK*

You should be happy! I'm hard to make blush, but whenever I get a particularly awesome comment I do. *blushes*

LOL! I don't really do that, but I know that certain people have certain roles- you and ST are the artsy ones, Van and Doey are goofy, etc. It's cool we both do that.

[smjoshsims.livejournal.com]

I didn't think about that must have been awkward whenever you had a Big Teenage Rebellious Moment, eh?

THAT IS PRECIOUS. My grandma is very much against any displays of affection, it makes me sad when I try to hug her and she doesn't let me. :(

I do say it in real life! People look at me odd when I saw certain things are delicious, but I don't care. :P

[leskuh.livejournal.com]

Lol, but really! The KISSING TOWER. People GET MARRIED in there. You're SUPPOSED to kiss someone at the top! It's obvious that I was gonna blow that out of proportion.

Doey reminds me of capslock! And GIFS! Also vegas and glitter. Hahahaha!

[leskuh.livejournal.com]

Oh... wow. That's... I'd feel pretty weird too. Thinking of people I know getting married weirds me out actually. I guess 'cause I'm only nineteen? I know one engaged couple, but no married ones that I grew up with.

Awww, don't sweat it. I didn't even think the questions were that bad! XD

[smjoshsims.livejournal.com]

*nods*

YES! Why Vegas though?

[leskuh.livejournal.com]

I think we got married in Vegas in one of Strange_Tomato's comment posts. I don't remember which one though. :(

[smjoshsims.livejournal.com]

LULZ. Was it a Drunken wedding or were you both lucid? :P

[strange-tomato.livejournal.com]

Soon they will all start marrying and reproducing, and it feels weird at first but then you get used to it (and some of them won't, but many will).

No, maybe not, but I'm just shy about people knowing all the little details of my life, unless I know them pretty well and trust them.

[strange-tomato.livejournal.com]

Yeah, my parents are super nice, so rebellion was hard. They were way overprotective, and I was afraid to do anything too bad because I might make my Mom cry or something. (I only started getting up to no good when I was 16 - which seems reasonable, but it is actually fairly old where I come from. My BFF started smoking when he was like 11.)

I love delicious as an all-purpose word.

[leskuh.livejournal.com]

Honestly, I forget. :(

I wish I could remember which thread we got married in. I shoulda saved it!

[leskuh.livejournal.com]

Oh gosh, so weird. One of my BFF's turned 20 today and that alone is so strange. She's no longer a teen! All those years of being one thing and suddenly you're something else.

Haha, yeah you are fairly reserved here. I like sharing details of my life with people online, because I tend to bottle a lot of my thoughts IRL. It's easier here, I think.

[muahbabymuah.livejournal.com]

Did you...ever tell Jones about your feelings?

And...was the reality show you were watching "Real Chance of Love"? The women acted catty beyond belief...to the point where I felt sorry for the poor woman they ganged up on.

"Cowboys" sounds like an awfully dark song...I wouldn't think that it'd fit a mischievious character such as Calvin. But it's an interesting pick, and I can see how the line ‘And I believe she loves you because you never make her feel like anything.’ could apply to the situation between Nor and Taran...

[leskuh.livejournal.com]

Yes. On two occasions actually. The first time I was in Sixth Grade and told him that I liked him and then in Tenth I said that I loved him. They happened at very powerful moments too. We really did have a weird connection with one another for years.

Actually it was that Rock of Love show - the one on the tour bus? This one girl took a bunch of used socks from some hockey challenge. It was really weird.

"Cowboys" is rather dark. But, Calvin's actually kind of a dark character. The mischievous side of him is really just a cover for the most part. Like, he's always sort of been a class clown, but he's sort of upped the ante ever since his parents' death. And he doesn't talk about it and sort of bottles everything, but he's got a lot of rage and guilt underneath his silliness.

The song is mostly about his relationship with Nor and Taran and being second best and how he sort of wants to just fight anything and everything. And he's begging to be recognized by the people that he loves and... :( Calvin is a big sad puppy beneath his silly exterior.

Nor's theme is "American Baby" by Dave Matthews. I still don't have a theme for Taran.

[thinveneer.livejournal.com]

I KNOW EXACTLY WHAT YOU MEAN ABOUT YOUR FAVORITE WEATHER. I THINK. I MEAN THAT ISN'T NECESSARILY MY FAVORITE WEATHER SINCE I'M NOT SURE WHAT MINE IS BUT UM I LOVE NIGHTS LIKE THAT.

Also is it weird that the term 'Lebtown' bugs me? I don't know why it bothers me, at all. Maybe the first time I heard it it was said by someone I disliked so I associate it with them or something but guuuuuhhh.

[leskuh.livejournal.com]

It IS the best weather. I feel like I can do or be anything on nights like that.

I LOVE SAYING LEBTOWN.

[thinveneer.livejournal.com]

I love and hate you at the same time oh goddd.

I think the night that we philosophized at the Falcon Fair was such a night.
