Without looking at the list... I take question #35. :)

[eumelia]

My perfect idea of a date is going to the movies and being able to make snarky/clever remarks about to my companion on said date.

After the movie we'd go have coffee and cake (not a meal, because we're stuffed with popcorn) at a local cafe and keep talking about the movie while seguing onto other topics of interest.

At some point there is kissing and if we're at that stage there is also sex :)

That is my favourite kind of date.

Ach, I can be narcissistic without feeling guilty.

I think what I like best about myself, beyond the basic brains and beauty combo (oh yes!), I think the fact that I am a cynical cry baby is one of my best features - I don't think the world is a good or beautiful place - but I am moved by it and by the beauty that shines through the ugliness.

Oh, and I'm an "idealist", duh :P

30. You don't seem to be a money-oriented person in the slightest, so I'm interested in your answer!

[silveradept]

Forty-Six. Either so I can say "That's not you at all.", offer practical advice, or just be there in support.

[eumelia]

Wow, your question had me thinking the whole morning about what I would do.

So, here are the things that I would love to do were I to have that kind of money:

Open up education funds for my nephews and nieces, buy (and sell) my dad's business so he wouldn't have to work 12 hour days like he does, pay and create a savings account for my education, buy myself a car (I really love the freedom a vehicle awards me) and give the rest to cancer research and human rights organisations.

Your basic stuff, because almost everything can be had with a job and everything you can't afford with that job, you don't really need.

[lilacsigil]

Yes, I didn't think you'd be off buying an island and a jet!

[eumelia]

I think splurging for a new car is pretty ostentatious!

I mean, I could get a second hand one, but a new mini! :D

Ah, my fantasies are so strange sometimes...

[eumelia]

The things I dislike most about myself are probably my low attention span (I tend to drift off into day dreams) and my clingyness - one of my greatest fears in to lose sight of boundaries and be a burden on people's time and space.

#15 :)

Enjoy!



This is the song I'm currently listening to obsesively. My taste, it is banal... even though the acoustic version is better imo.

[eumelia]

Guess not... Well, my favourite song at the moment is "Shake It Out" by Florence + The Machine. "Ceremonials" is a great album.

[silveradept]

I understand on the attention span. It causes so much trouble...

[perspi]

#19, yay!

[eumelia]

Chocolate and Espresso.

Butterscotch if I'm feeling daring :P

If I'm feeling ridiculous bubble gum or banana.

Omnomnomnomnom!

Oh man. Dude. That's a tough one.

I don't know. Really. I'm mainly know what I don't want - I don't want a mortgage, I don't want children, but beyond that I'm not sure what else.

I'd like to continue to study and learn and be exposed to new information and knowledge and write and be creative, but beyond that, as I said, I don't know.

What an uninspiring answer, I know.

[moonbathe_skin]

It is an answer though!

[blueberry_ash]

Oh! I love that song so much, myself! :D
