Survey

Dusting off the old blog, I figured I would do a survey one of my friends did on her amazing blog, Mason Jar Memories.  She works her ass off on it, and actually posts just about every day.  I don't know why I'm telling you this though, since you're probably the only one reading this, Grace! hahaha

1. What is your motivation for blogging?

Well, my blog is made to be a test bed for my stories.  Short ones, or pieces of larger ones.  I made it in 2009 for that purpose and only updated it once since I fret that they won't like it, even though I tell myself that's kind of the point.  It was made to show people that I am working on things and not just sitting around playing Fallout, which is closer to the truth nowadays.

2. What do you feel are your strengths and weaknesses as a person? 

Strengths are that I can get people about things they wouldn't talk about with anyone else, and subsequently help them with their problems (usually make them comfortable with them rather than solve them).  I love delving deep into people and really get to know them; for a time I considered being a psychologist.  

Weaknesses are my extreme procrastination and bouts with depression, often due to not doing the things I need to do because of said procrastination.  So it's a shit-cycle that I need the strength to break, which I'm breaking soon.
 

3. What are your dream accomplishments?
 

Write a novel.

Write, pencil and possibly ink, color and letter a limited 12-issue comic book series.

Write, direct and edit a feature film.

Write, direct and animate an animated feature film.

Write, design and possibly program, model and animate a video game.

That's my five things to accomplish before I die.  Working on two of those right now, and have the writing done for all the rest.
 

4. What does your usual breakfast look like?

I sleep odd hours sometimes, so it's often whatever we're supposed to have for dinner.  If not that, it's either a bowl of cereal (Cinnamon Toast Crunch or Corn Flakes with sugar because Frosted Flakes suck) or a potato salad sandwich.

5. One of your most embarrassing stories? 

 I didn't get a belt until I was about 19 or 20 years old.  Before that, I would have to hold up my pants by putting my hands in my pockets.  My mom, like usual, told me some bullshit when I was younger like "you don't need belts, they're just an accessory".  Could have used that accessory when I was walking through the hospital to visit my grandma a few years back and my pants fell to my ankles AS SOON as a fucking cop walked by.  Ok, I'll admit, that's pretty funny. :P

6. The highlight of your life thus far?

Whenever someone tells me they like one of my ideas, those are the highlights of my life.  I don't have any definitive moments.

7. What do you imagine your spirit animal to be?

 
The capybara.  Just look at it.

 

8. What is something you miss?

I miss walking through Toys R Us and seeing the ENTIRE SECTION dedicated to the Nintendo 64.  Will never see so many now-old games, systems and accessories in mint condition in one place anymore.  Thing is, I only went there maybe twice in my whole life.  So yeah, not much that I miss.

9. What is one trend you refuse to follow?

Going from one social network to the next every 6 months.  I'll join Google+ when my Facebook friends never get on, thank you very much.

10. What is your favorite junk T.V. show? 

I don't watch T.V. hardly at all...  But I assume it would be my numerous cartoons I enjoy, like Adventure Time, Regular Show, Superjail, Ugly Americans, Aqua Teen Hunger Force, and old classics on Netflix like Rocko's Modern Life, Ren and Stimpy, and X-Men (the mid-90's animated series I grew up with).  If only Netflix had some Looney Tunes...  I'm a animation freak, but  I digress.

And that's it. Hope you guys get a tad bit of insight into me with that, and that it was enjoyable.  Maybe I'll post a story soon.  Have a better one!
