Hi

1. What do you do? (Hobbies, job)

I draw a lot, occasionally make jewelry, study languages.

2. Where are you from?

Northeast US

3. Who is your favorite author?

George Orwell.

4. What are your favorite films?

The Prestige, Gilda, The Lost Boys, Lord of the Rings trilogy, Waking Life, The Dark Knight, and a TON of animated films that I don’t want to be too bothered listing here.

5. What music do you want played at your wedding?
I don’t plan on getting married.

6. At your funeral?

I don’t know yet.

7. This IS a gothic website, so... how do you want to die?
Either in my sleep, or being mobbed by a bunch of zombies and turned into one. But not just any kind of zombie; a dancing zombie ALA Thriller.

8. What kind of casket would you want?

I don’t want to own land after death; cremation would be cool, but that kind of puts a damper on the Thriller Zombie Plan…

9. What's your FAVORITE outfit?

Normally something form-fitting. I like vests, and I love hats too! But I’m not all that fancy, so whatever works that suits me.

10. What's one thing you miss about being a little kid?
The general carefree mindset.

11. What's your favorite band?

I like a lot of music, it’s seriously a mishmash. I’ll listen to a lot of soundtracks from various movies, video game soundtracks, and such. As for the names of some, I like UNKLE, Walter Sickert & the Army of Broken Toys, Demon, The Cure, Switchblade Symphony, and What Time Is It, Mr. Fox?, just to name a few.

12. What kind of education do you have? What is/was/will be your major?

I’m currently in college, studying art.

13. Why did you join?

it’s an interesting community, and I’m very much interested in the Goth subculture.

14. If the first 13 questions didn't give it away. What is your gender?

Female

Good to meet you all!

Welcome Curio. The Cure makes for an automatic shoo-in.

amgrenL: For someone who "took philosophy" your answers seem terribly brief.
One would think someone interested in philosophy would seize the opportunity to be verbose. Please tell me: with what philosophy are you most familiar?

HP, don't encourage her. We don't want to further schizophrenize Curio's intro thread.

amgrenL, go start your own intro thread.

Good point. Hopefully my question intimidated her enough to not post again in this thread.
