Happy Birthday! :)

An interview with Eyemaker:

1 - How did you come about this site and what makes you keep coming back?
I thank my Lit. teacher for giving us a book analysis assignment, especially when she gave me one of Tolstoy’s works. And to think how long it is, I started to cram and finally decided to “google” some of references. And that’s it..Tadaa! And here I am after a year- tolerating myself to this LitNet addiction.:)

2 - Have you visited other countries than your own and what did you like about it or not like? If you could live somewhere different from where you live now, where would it be and why?
Other countries? I often I wished I had but since I’m stuck with my school-chair and tethered in my straight-laced mom, I had no chance.:( But I had visited a lot of beautiful places here in our country. I’m sure you’ll love it if you have a chance visiting our place.:D Perhaps after graduation, my uncle invited me to visit my nieces in Gloucester(England) ...It'll be exciting for sure!

3 - What are your favorite hobbies ?
Reading of course(If in school, I love doing this hobby in my favorite place- school pond!). Saucers after classes, making a little chat with my teachers:), making my notebooks inhabited with monstrous eyes and lines and curves(especially during a boring lesson), I just love doing tints all over!..:D. (I remembered one time, when I tried making fun of my teach, I made a caricature featuring his moles, wrinkles and eye scars!. :D)

4 - Do you have any pets?
I bought a pair of puppies last week..(Fuyine and Hujio- strange names I know!:D). I let my bestfriend in taking care of the latter..:). cat ofcourse, I had a lot. some were already resting in peace. Believe it or not we have made small sepulcher of some kind at our backyard for our deceased pets:D..

5 - What makes you happy?
Friends, sleepovers, phone calls, emails, postcards, chocolates, LN, new friends online, high quiz results, impressive essays...and the list continues ...

9. Do you feel comfortable in your walk with God?
Certainly!:)

10. Which actor should play you in a movie based on your life?

52. Anything that you want to forget but you never can?
My horrible high school teacher. It's a long story. But it started with a little glitch about an exam..(We’re just ignoring the fact that it's her fault, but because of her own irratational principles we cannot interfere)

Happy birthday Eyemaker. I remember saying hi to you when you first signed up, but I haven't seen you much since then. I think I asked you about your user name before. Eyemaker? What led you to that name? You had some logical explanation before, but now I can't bring it to mind.

[*Classic*Charm*]

Happy Birthday!
