Doodley doo...:D
Apr. 9th, 2006 10:25 pmBecause I don't have anything particularly interesting to say but still wanted to write an entry cause I'm silly like that, have a meme. :)
1. What does your Livejournal name mean?
I wanted 'neverwhere' of course, because it's who I am, but it was already taken (but someone who has neverever posted not even once the bastard), so I chose a character from the series instead. I still like it alot, but I'm Nevvie always and forever. :)
2. Elaborate on your default icon?
I can't believe I've had the same default image for four years. Erk. It's me. Being cute. Mostly. ;-)
3. Make up a question.
What is your silliest fear? Sometimes I'm honestly afraid I'm not actually a Ravenclaw. I'm so weird.
4. What's your current relationship status?
To quote
nut_m3g, 'so beyond single'. *sighs with despair* Three years alone (well, four, if you want to be extremely complicated about it) and counting. And not even a hope of anything in the future. Not really bothered about it most days. But others...*sad smile*
5. What EXACTLY are you wearing right now?
How tediously uninteresting. Purple long sleeved shirt, blue jeans, uncomfortable black work shoes I can't be bothered to take off, large square rimmed geek glasses, hair in pigtails.
6. What is your current problem?
Only one? Seriously, I can't list just one, there are dozens. If I had to pick the most overwhelming it would be stagnation and paralyzing anxiety about my lack of future plans and prospects.
7. What do you love most?
Laughing with close friends. There is nothing better in the world than that.
8. What makes you most happy?
Being with my treasured friends and knowing they love me.
9. Are you musically inclined?
Yes, but I cry knowing how I've ruined it all. I haven't had a voice lesson in three years and even singing in the car I can hear the appalling decline of my voice and weep inside every time I hear it crack. I'll never do musical theatre again at this rate. (Not that there was much hope of that anyway.) I played piano from 7-12 and was actually quite good at it, but quit because I was bored and haven't had a lesson since, which is absolutely one of the worst descisons I have ever made.
10. If you could go back in time and change something, what would you change?
I never would have left Sarah Lawrence. I will regret that until the day I die. That or go back and find every single one of the bastards who emotionally and/or physically abused me AND KICK THEIR ASS. Probably the first one though. ;-)
11. If you MUST be an animal for ONE day, what would you be?
An otter of course! I'd play all the live long day, splashing and sliding and giggling with my otter friends, and play mischievious pranks on all the other animals. Wheeeee.
12. Ever have a near death experience? No.
13. Name an obvious quality you have.
Erm....maybe my hair. *laughs* My bouncy gigglegrin is something I'm proud of, even if it doesn't get me noticed or appreciated.
14. What's the name of the song that's stuck in your head right now?
'Mousukoshi...mousukoshi' ('A little bit more') from Midori no Hibi (Midori Days). It's the ending theme for the series, which I'm currently watching, so it's in my head as I type this. I'm taking a break from a marathon, just starting ep 12 of 13. Maybe I don't want it to end? :)
15. Who did you cut and paste this from?
nut_m3g of course.
16. Name someone with the same birthday as you.
Sophia Loren, I think.
17. Have you ever vandalized someone's private property?
No, but I have passive aggressively wished I had on several occasions.
18. Have you ever been in a fight?
Not if you mean 'did I start one'. Have I been beat up? Yes.
19. Have you ever sung in front of a large audience?
Hee. Yes. And I miss it terribly.
20. What is the first thing you notice about the opposite sex?
Eyes and smile. I love a cheeky grin!
21. What do you usually order from Starbucks?
HISS SPIT GRRRRR NO STARBUCKS ONLY COFFEE BEAN! :-P
22. Has anyone ever said you looked like a celebrity?
I used to get Punky Brewster a lot. *giggles*
23. Do you still watch kiddy movies or TV shows?
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA that is the funniest question ever. :D
I seriously don't think I could live my life without cartoons or 'kiddy' shows, whatever that is. ;-)
24. Did you have braces?
Yes, and I need them again! My bottom teeth are a disaster.
25. Are you comfortable with your height?
Nooooooooo I wish I were taller. Being hobbity may be cute, but it doesn't help you reach the top shelf.
26. What is the most romantic thing someone has ever done for you?
*ponders* I have no idea. A back rub when I didn't ask for one? Not very exciting really, is it.
27. Do you speak any other languages?
I used to be exceedingly good at French, since both my parents are fluent, but alas I have forgotten nearly everything. I had six years of Latin a bazillion years ago, so now 'Grumio est in culina' (Grumio is in the kitchen!) is as far as I get. I think I actually might know more Japanese than either of the languages I used to know so well, and that really isn't saying very much. :)
28. Do you have a crush on someone on LJ?
God yes. Several. *le sigh*
That was fun, wasn't it! :D

Aw. *swoons* And boo for boys not thinking you're the cutest thing in the world. Seriously. If I wasn't old enough to be your mum and the wrong gender, I'd be crushing on ya!
no subject
Date: 2006-04-10 05:44 am (UTC)First sentence I learned in Latin. Probably will be the last thing I forget. Well, that and stultus assinine and the "heek, hike, hoke . . . hugh-us, hugh-us, hugh-us . . . hugh-ick, hugh-ick, hugh-ick . . . hi! hunk! honk!" bit - with hand gestures on the last three.
(aka hic, haec, hoc . . . huius, huius, huius . . . huic, huic, huic . . . hae, hunc, hanc)
Yes, we drove our Latin teacher nuts - or would have if she hadn't taught in an inner-urban school before us.
no subject
Date: 2006-04-10 05:47 am (UTC)My latin teacher ('salve magister!') was completely mental -- she tried to teach us the cases using puppets, my favourite being a little monkey for Danny Dative who likes to 'hold his banana' (omg what? *lol*) for some reason I can't remember now. I think latin gives you the crazy. *grins*
no subject
Date: 2006-04-10 05:59 am (UTC)Now, the woman who would sub for her - she was like your Latin teacher. Not only insane, but bitter too, because she thought she should have gotten our teacher's job instead of just subbing. She was positive she was better than our regular teacher and we were all going "I don't think so" under our breaths.
Still, I can't exactly say our regular teacher was normal.

Date: 2006-04-10 06:42 am (UTC)One crush is blindingly obvious, mostly because it isn't a crush but an undying, exceedingly platonic but deeper than that kind of love. Hee. :)
You don't know the others. :-P
Are you trying to make your lj look like myspace? :)
no subject
Date: 2006-04-10 06:44 am (UTC)I DON'T KNOW WHAT I AM DOING ANYMORE.
I have an old polkadotted skirt and when I found that image I was like YAY NOSTALGIA and black and white and pink is just so... me?? maybe??
I don't even know what a crush is anymore, nevverkins. I just fall butt crazy in love with people. Especially if they are gay men.

Don't stop torrenting anime though, that's a crime against the internet ;)
Pigtails!
no subject
Date: 2006-04-10 04:07 pm (UTC)I couldn't stop the anime even if all my limbs were hacked off and all I had was my nose to find them. ;-)
(You've seen all the big new premieres, right? xxxHOLiC, NANA, Zegapain, Ouran High School Host Club, Gakuen Heaven (hehehe!),Air Gear, and soon to be many more? *grins impishly*)
I've seen three episodes without actually watching them; at the Who convention I attended two months ago all the writers were there and they each picked a favourite episode to give a commentary on, so I went to that panel and laughed like a madwoman at everything they said. So cute. :)
no subject
Date: 2006-04-10 10:15 am (UTC)And you have NOT ruined your voice. You HAVE NOT. Not unless you took up smoking over the past few years and didn't tell anyone. You're just rusy and out of practice which is NOT THE SAME THING AT ALL. You haven't lost the talent, you've just lost the ease of it, and that can be learned again. IT'S STILL THERE. I refuse to let you give up on that because your voice rocked and it's absolutely not too late.
Man, I miss you.
no subject
Date: 2006-04-10 10:31 am (UTC)*nods frantically*
Here here. Yes. Absolutely. Ashfae is a wise Ashfae. Listen to her.
I was going to say "I miss you" in a separate comment in case there was any confusion as to which of you I miss, but actually I miss both of you.
Nevvie, my dear. Come to the UK soon? Please?
no subject
Date: 2006-04-10 10:45 am (UTC)I know you want to and will as soon as you can afford it. Just adding in my vote that this is where you should be. As in, near us! *hugs and hugs and hugs* Could you apply for a PhD grad school program of any sort, maybe? I know it'd cost a lot, and debt sucks, but merrr...
And in an Elly-note, I miss you too. *hugs*
no subject
Date: 2006-04-10 11:39 am (UTC)I was very very very lucky in that I had grandparents who were successfully guilt-tripped into paying for it, so I'm not in debt from that. But I really wonder if you should try something similar. If you apply for a PhD you might be able to get funding, or even just a Master's. And if you applied to universities in Scotland, you can stay in the country and work for another two years after graduating thanks to the way they've tweaked the visa rules. (alas, this one came into effect after I finished my degree, so I couldn't apply it to me)
Not that I'm biased or anything, no no. *wry gryn* But think about it? Or talk to me about it? Even if you couldn't apply to do something drama-related, you could do something English-related and then find music-y and drama-y things on the side!
