Game: Ask the Person Below You

since farnoosh didn't ask anything I will answer Scher's question also.

I just went to the library and checked The Brief History of the Dead and it was a good, light summer read.

According to this book, you go to a city and continue to live there with all the other dead people as long as there is someone still in the living world who remembers you. If no one on earth is still alive to remember you, then you disappear from the city.

I don't want to say anymore in case anyone wants to read this. I don't want to spoil it.

What thing do you do to release your creativity?

Listen to music that coincides with the mood I'm trying to write in.

Same question!

Play guitar amilessly. Sooner or later I'm humming something, and fumbling for words. In short stories I always stop in the middle of a sentence, so that when I come back, I have to figure out what I was trying to say.

Same question, it's a winner! http://i94.photobucket.com/albums/l1...ies/QWERTY.gif

I re-read my own work while listening to music.

what's your favorite poem?

Great question! Such a hard one to answer though...ouch...
I love so so many. "If" by Rudyard Kipling, Poe's "The Raven", right now I am in love with ee cumming's "since feeling is first"
since feeling is first
who pays any attention
to the syntax of things
will never wholly kiss you;

wholly to be a fool
while Spring is in the world

my blood approves,
and kisses are a far better fate
than wisdom
lady i swear by all flowers. Don't cry
--the best gesture of my brain is less than
your eyelids' flutter which says

we are for eachother: then
laugh, leaning back in my arms
for life's not a paragraph

And death i think is no parenthesis




same q!

My favorite poem of the moment (and this changes periodically) is by William Blake:

The Garden of Love

I laid me down upon a bank,
Where Love lay sleeping;
I heard among the rushes dank
Weeping, weeping.

Then I went to the heath and the wild,
To the thistles and thorns of the waste;
And they told me how they were beguiled,
Driven out, and compelled to the chaste.

I went to the Garden of Love,
And saw what I never had seen;
A Chapel was built in the midst,
Where I used to play on the green.

And the gates of this Chapel were shut
And "Thou shalt not," writ over the door;
So I turned to the Garden of Love
That so many sweet flowers bore.

And I saw it was filled with graves,
And tombstones where flowers should be;
And priests in black gowns were walking their rounds,
And binding with briars my joys and desires.

Next question: What is the best movie you've seen recently?

The Departed. Awesome movie.

Here's one for the athletically inclined: if you had to stake your life on a one-on-one game between LeBron and Kobe, who would you pick?

I'll pick LeBron but that is only because I don't like Kobe but don't really know how they stack up on the court.

What's the last song you listened too?

"Why is love so hard to find" by jesse mccartney. i am ashamed that it wasn't one of my country songs.

what is your favorite song?

*************************

I wish I could reread Twiligth all over again!

What kind of art do you like?

Surrealists, cubism, and I'm not sure what else. I know I don't like the impressionists.


What piece of art inspires you the most?

Starry Night by Van Gogh

What was the last thing you ate :)?

a chocolate chunk brownie!

how do you feel about the harry potter series?

funny

what is the name of your best freind?

srry, slow again!

Her name is Katherine, Katie for short.

how do u feel about the harry potter series?

i like, harry potter was the first book i learned to read in english :)

what do you think about.....SNAPE?

idk. have u read the 6th book bakiryu?

Yup: got it as soon as it came out.

do you think Harry will die?

idk maybe, maybe not. I like the theory where harry AND voldemort die, but to answer about snape, i don't like him that much. especially since he turned out to be the "Half-Blood Prince."

who do u think r the 2 that will die in the 7th book?

I'm afraid he will. Rowling made it quite clear this was to be the last Potter book. So she hasn't got a choice, has she?

Do you think Ron and Hermione will marry?

Edit: Sorry, I was too slow.
To answer your question: Harry and Voldemort.

Sure why not!!

(going along with the theme) Do you think Lupin will die?

I do. I actually think that one of the weasley's will die, as well as lupin.

what do u think will happen to Harry?

probably end up killing v-mort.

do you think they'll make 7 movies?

i do, but the three actors (emma, daniel, and rupert) will be old

what do u think will happen to ginny?

probably end up with harry, (i never liked them togheter in the first place)

Do you think Ronald *gasps* will die?

Idk he might. But i don't think Ginny will end up with harry because in the 6th book, harry said that he and ginny can't date, because it's too dangerous for her, and that he needs to stay away from her.

So, do u think that the school will stay open?

Nope. But it will be in the book.

So, are you tired of the Harry Potter talk?

i am now. I love harry potter, but something else could spark my interest, say.....football!

Do you play football?

Yep.

Texans or Cowboys?

idk, Cowboys i guess.

Are u like the quarterback or something?

Nope. Tackle.

Sunrise or sunset?

depends who i see it with. Sunset, i believe it's more romantic.

ipod or iphone?

iPod. Cheaper.

Coke or Pepsi?
