I too have central heterochromia! I never knew it was a thing until you mentioned it, so when I googled it I got really excited xD  It's green eyes with a (dark) golden ring?. It makes people believe I have brown/hazel eyes at times, and at some very rare sunny days they look yellow 0v0 <3 I'm gonna go and create an "what's your eye color" thread now, this is just too exciting  Also, I am digging the socks and Gryffindor scarf! xD And ofc more questions while we're at it! 1. Do you work/study right now? If so in what?
2. Is there someone in your life that have greatly inspired you?
3. Scariest movie you've ever seen?

Neat! Heterochromia FTW xD 1. Do you work/study right now? If so in what?Yes, I study "graphic design & communication" in Norrköping. But soon I will start my job as head of marketing at my student union - full time work for a year!  2. Is there someone in your life that have greatly inspired you?Ah, yes, there are several. Let's see... If it wasn't for the artist VitaniDaReal, I doubt I would have ever considered a career in art or animation. Who knows where I would have been if I hadn't stumbled across her art back in 2002 and gotten so inspired to create my own Lion King characters...! More recently, a fellow named Samuel comes to mind - him and his "phadderi", The Legion, inspired me to become a lot more engaged and involved in student projects, and thanks to all the experience I got from those projects I've now landed a full-time job (see previous question)! And those above are, of course, leaving out the most obvious pick - my parents, who I think will always be my biggest inspirations and I'll always aspire to be like them. 3. Scariest movie you've ever seen?I... actually don't know. I really don't like scary movies, so I tend to do my best to avoid them, haha. But when I was little I remember being terrified of Jurassic Park, despite my great love of dinosaurs  |

1. What's your favourite movie? This is always one of those questions that I answer by saying "it's hard to pick just one!" When it does come down to it though I usually go with The Shawshank Redemption. Awesome movie that holds a ton of weight and is just beautifully done overall. Plus it has Morgan Freeman in it and who doesn't love that guy? 2. Which of your RP characters do you like the most and why? I would probably have to say Xoren. Despite most (if not all) of my characters embodying some character trait(s) of mine I feel that my best are shown through Xoren. In a way I guess I just find it easy to connect to his character. Oh yeah, and he was my first character too =P 3. Is there someone in your life that has greatly inspired you? (yeah, I stole that one xD) Well no one that I've directly met but the greats like Albert Einstein, Isaac Newton, and others are what made me so interested in physics so I guess they count. 4. Any favourite hobbies/pastimes? Oh the list goes on and on... -Writing (prose and poetry)
-Music (classical and jazz, I play trombone, baritone, and a little bit of piano)
-Gaming
-Magic (mostly card tricks)
-Tinkering with stuff around camp (everything from electronics to mechanical physics experiments to programming on occasion)
-Cooking
I've got tons of other things but those are the ones that come to mind by looking around my room XD 5. Which country in the world would you like to visit? I've been fortunate enough to visit both London, England and Paris, France so those two are crossed of my list. I would love to see Italy (my heritage actually) but I'm also very tempted to see Japan. I think I would be nearly equally happy visiting either country but I lean a bit towards Italy because the language would be easier to pick up XD

1. If you are a gamer, what is your favourite game? I don't think I can answer this question with just one game... I love far too many. If I had to narrow it down to a few though I would probably say The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time, Okami, and Fire Emblem: Awakening are definitely in the running on account of them all being artfully crafted games with compelling story and lots to do. 2. Do you like a specific type of food? Being an Italian I do very much enjoy most types of pasta and other Italian dishes but I'm also a huge fan of Mexican food. To be honest though I really do enjoy almost all types of cuisine but I would have to say that those two are my favorites.
3. What are you most skillful at? Now that's a difficult one to answer... Well I can immediately take tinkering off of the list because I'm still pretty new to actually applying my book knowledge so I'm not very good at it yet. With magic and cooking I took a pretty long hiatus when I went to college so I'm a bit rusty in both of those areas so I think those are out too. I'm in no way shape or form a truly hardcore gamer since I don't really try to hard to get good at any specific game but I'm instead decent at a bunch of them. That leaves music and writing and that's a toughy right there. I've been doing both for about the same amount of time but I think that I'm just a bit better with my trombone then my pen since I haven't been keeping up with my writing as much as I should. After that long-winded narrowing process I think I would have to go with my music 
Keep 'em coming guys! This is fun!

1.) Do you have a pet peeve? If so, what is it?
I have a couple but the most notable is probably a disorganized computer. It's ironic because while my desktop and all the mazes of folders are incredibly organized my room tends to be pretty messy.
2.) Who is your favorite author?
I don't really read too much (even though I really should) but I can say that I thoroughly enjoyed reading Harry Potter when I did so I guess I should go with J.K. Rowling.
3.) If you could go back in time what year would you travel to?
Well I wouldn't go back in time if I had to worry about things like the butterfly effect and the myriad of apocalyptic paradoxes I could unleash if I wasn't careful. If none of that was a problem I think I would have to visit Italy during the time of the Renaissance so sometime during the 13th or early 14th century. In that time frame I know that visiting Leonardo Da Vinci would be a must so I would have to go back to one of the years between 1480 and 1510 to catch him in his prime.
4.) Do you like theme parks?
Yeah, they're pretty fun.
5.) What is your favorite holiday?
I've always enjoyed Christmas festivities even though I'm no longer a practicing Catholic.
6.) What is your favorite time of day?
Twilight. It makes for the best pictures and views =3
7.) Which role-play character that you've created are you the most proud of? Why?
I'm pretty proud of Xoren. Not really because of who he is but rather how I've developed the character and allowed some of my past scars to speak through him. The moment that I brought up the ideas of depression and even suicide with Xoren I realized that those darker thoughts had left a scar on me from the past that I never really felt until I got it out in writing. Sorry to make that answer so heavy =P
8.) What is your favorite Disney song?
I Just Can't Wait to be King. It's obvious which one that's from, right?
9.) What is your favorite childhood memory?
The one that comes to mind first is the first time I rode the Buzz Lightyear, Space Cadet ride in Magic Kingdom, Disney World. To this day that is one of the few rides I would probably ride more than once in a visit simply because I loved it so much as a kid.
10.) What is your favorite dessert?
Chocolate mousse cake. I'm salivating just typing it out =P
11.) What challenge have you overcome most recently?
Coming back here and getting back into the swing of things. I know it doesn't sound like much of a challenge but I've been pretty busy and also not feeling to well (mentally speaking that is) so getting back into this community was a huge obstacle. I knew you guys would be understanding but I still couldn't get over the feeling that I abandoned you and with loyalty being something I value so highly it was eating me up inside and making me feel very anxious about coming back. Now that I did though, I'm soooo happy I did and I couldn't have asked for a better group of friends to come back to!

Now that I did though, I'm soooo happy I did and I couldn't have asked for a better group of friends to come back to! That's a really nice sentiment and I'm sure it did feel like quite a challenge to overcome. Just so you know, you're always welcome here with open arms, no matter for how long you need to take a break sometimes. It happens and rest assured, we'll always understand  Here's a small bunch of new questions: 1. What's your favourite card trick? 2. Have you played any of the classic Zelda games? (Those that came out before Ocarina of Time, I mean) 3. Favourite camping activity? 4. How do you see yourself in 10 years from now? |

Thanks for the kind words Leorgathar! 1. What's your favourite card trick?
I think my favorite trick to preform (not necessarily my favorite in terms of substance) is 673 King Street. It's a pretty impressive trick that doesn't take too much skill to pull off but it really does amaze an audience. 2. Have you played any of the classic Zelda games? (Those that came out before Ocarina of Time, I mean)
I've actually played most of them but I don't think I've beaten any of them completely. Maybe I'll do that when I get some free time =P 3. Favourite camping activity?
Pioneering. What that is is essentially using big sticks (spars) and rope to make huge things like towers and catapults and other really cool stuff. I made a set of albums on Photobucket last year with some of the pioneering stuff I did if you want to see what I'm talking about. 4. How do you see yourself in 10 years from now? I see myself working with cutting edge technology in a search to understand what we don't understand about the universe. Either that or working in the government on cool gadgets and what-not =P |
