Meme!

I've seen this on a couple other LJs, but actually swiped it from [livejournal.com profile] msbbt.

So ask me a question about anything--fandom, real life, music, vegetables, etc--and I will answer you and then ask YOU a question and then the whole process could be repeated if anyone wants to keep it up. If this works, by the end we could know each other so well we're sick of each other and have to quit one another for a while.

Kitchen utensil?.....I'd probably be one of the multitask-things that can dice, slice and do too-many different things. Because they're useful but frustrating. ^___^

What is your favorite novel? (No, manga isn't counted! XP)

[identity profile] candy--chan.livejournal.com 2006-03-21 04:05 pm (UTC)(link)
*laugh* Oh, good answer!

Honestly, I didn't even think manga when I saw that question. The first thing that popped into my head was The Catcher in the Rye by J.D. Salinger. It was easy to read, and the symbolism wasn't wholly bizarre--it's really a book about nothing. And I sort of "forgot" to give my copy back to my teacher when we were done with it *looks innocent*

Second place goes to John Steinback's Of Mice and Men. I finished that book the day I got it. Also partial to Harry Potter, but I'm not sure if that counts as a novel.

What's your favorite anime/manga series of all time? *clutches award for Lamest Question Ever*

[identity profile] axtar.livejournal.com 2006-03-21 04:16 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh, tough question for me...O__O I don't have a particular favorite fandom, it kinda alternate between the fandoms I currently obsess over. At the moment, I guess it is Prince of Tennis, though in the near future it might be Bleach or Detective Conan again. These are my OT3 fandom, so...^___^ *Yes, I realize I'm cheating on this question, hohoho...*

Oh okay, if you had to dress up as a vegetable for a whole day, what veggie would you be? *snatches award from you* X3

[identity profile] candy--chan.livejournal.com 2006-03-21 09:33 pm (UTC)(link)
Hmmm...maybe a carrot, because they're skinny! Or perhaps an eggplant, because they're purple (which is a fun color for a vegetable), and because then nobody would want to eat me XP

All righty...ummm...favorite color! *steals trophy back* MINE!

[identity profile] axtar.livejournal.com 2006-03-22 02:48 am (UTC)(link)
Don't have a particular one; it varies with the days, really, ehehehe...It is most frequently yellow though. ^__^ *Watch me skirt around the question! Weeee!*

If Armageddon arrives and you could save only one person in this world, who would it be? *accepts 'Most drastic Question' award*

[identity profile] candy--chan.livejournal.com 2006-03-22 05:22 am (UTC)(link)
*deadpans* Gosho Aoyama, so I can find out how Conan ends. No, no, I'm just kidding!!

*is shot*

Oh wow...I honestly don't know. I'm not avoiding the question, but I really don't know. If I could only save one person...probably one of my family members, but don't ask me to pick one.

For you--is there a song that just makes you want to rip your ears off your head when you hear it? If so, what song is that?

[identity profile] axtar.livejournal.com 2006-03-22 05:34 am (UTC)(link)
XDDD *Gosho Aoyama, SNERK*

Oh, I remember the days when Macy Gray's 'I Try' would come on and I'd try to shove my head down the nearest drainpipe to scream.*reminisces nostalgically* Those good ol' days...But I've grown more tolerant of late, maybe because in every song, there's always an outstanding point in which you can appreciate (It's just harder to find in SOME songs.)

Which feat would you prefer to stake claim on: Building the Eiffel Tower out of potato chips, having the ability to eat potato chips underwater, or making the world's first plastic book (with plastic pages and all)?

...I may need that 'Lamest question award' back...^^;;;;;; (Yes, I'm consuming potato chips at the moment...) On a more serious note, what feat would you most like to be remembered for (specify your own)?






[identity profile] candy--chan.livejournal.com 2006-03-22 05:53 am (UTC)(link)
Depends--after I built the Eiffel Tower out of potato chips, would I be permitted to eat them? And furthermore, are they plain chips, or something like, oh, say, BBQ ripple chips? These are things I must know!!

I want to be remembered as a good person, if nothing else. It doesn't have to be anything big or world-changing, but just that I might have made a difference in someone's life. That's one of the reasons I'm becoming a teacher, after all ^_^ I want to have the chance to make a difference.

If you were turned into a tree tomorrow morning, what kind of tree would you want to be, and why? It's late. I should be sleeping...

[identity profile] axtar.livejournal.com 2006-03-22 06:21 am (UTC)(link)
Aww..that was such a beautiful answer. ^___^ :glomples:

I would be a a mis-tree....*gets smacked for lame pun* I would be a cactus, maybe? They're able to withstand extreme conditions and have a built-in self-defence but they're also beautiful in their own way, especially when them bloom flowers. ^__^ (Is it really late over there? It's 2 pm in the afternoon here, LOL)

If YOU could be a book, what book would you be?

[identity profile] candy--chan.livejournal.com 2006-03-22 03:53 pm (UTC)(link)
Yay, I am glompled!! And yeah, it was midnight here. Usually I don't get that tired 'til closer to one AM.

A mis-tree? *collective dot dot dot* You and your puns, honestly =P

I think I would want to be something long and boring, like The Grapes of Wrath or David Copperfield, because of the amusement factor in listening to students whine about reading me.

Or I would want to be a Conan manga volume so I can constantly huggle Conan/Shinichi/Heiji/Kaito between my pages ^__^

How do you think the Conan series will end? You can be as vague or as specific as you like =P

[identity profile] axtar.livejournal.com 2006-03-22 04:13 pm (UTC)(link)
I think Shinichi and Ran will get stuck on a sinking ship with reruns of Celine Dion songs and Mouri will take over the world. *gets smacked again*

But really, Ran will probably find out about Shinichi during some really angsty moment. And as she angsts, Heiji and Kazuha will realize what a good thing they have going, and just get together. Ans somehow, the whole BO will be wiped out/put in prison/turned into kids thanks to Shiho and Shinichi survives angsty incident. He takes over Mouri's detective agency and they live happily ever after. ^___^

What do you dislike most in this world?

[identity profile] candy--chan.livejournal.com 2006-03-22 05:52 pm (UTC)(link)
I just want to see Shinichi kick Gin's donkey. Repeatedly. From many different angles.

Close-minded people piss me off. I can respect other people's views and all, but it's when they won't even admit that there's another way of thinking or that other people might not agree with them. It makes me want to punch a baby. *mutters uncomplimentary things about President Bush*

If you were ruler of the world for one day, what decrees would you make?

[identity profile] axtar.livejournal.com 2006-03-23 02:39 am (UTC)(link)
*is suddenly bombarded with slogan* Everytime you say something stupid, Candy_chan punches a baby.

Please, think of the babies. Think before you speak. XD

If I were ruler for a day, I think I'd declare a break from schools/work (unless you actually want to go). Because everyone should get a break once in a while. I'll probably demand the TV station air anime 24/7 for a whole day as well. ^^

If a wallet of gold fell down from the sky into your lap, what would you do?

[identity profile] candy--chan.livejournal.com 2006-03-23 03:14 am (UTC)(link)
My parents probably wonder what I'm laughing about in here. Ohmigod, I need to post that places...

If I had lots of money that I didn't have to give back...well, first I'd look out for leprachauns. Then I'd make sure my family was taken care of, and then I have a few charities and causes that I'd get in touch with. Otherwise, just handle things as they came along.

Okay, okay, there is a small list of things I would buy myself, too...

I think this thing's gonna collapse into linkies soon. Anyway, for you...if you could meet one person from history, who would you want to meet and why?

[identity profile] axtar.livejournal.com 2006-03-23 03:22 am (UTC)(link)
Hmmm....any one person?

I would wanna meet Thomas Alva Edison to learn from his optimism to achieve something great.

Yay linkies! ^___^

What are your favorite manga/anime?

[identity profile] candy--chan.livejournal.com 2006-03-23 04:21 am (UTC)(link)
At the moment, my obsession, obviously enough, is Detective Conan. I'm also a Furuba fan, and I'm currently enjoying Fullmetal Alchemist, and the Matantei Loki Ragnarok anime. And there will always, always be a special place in my tar-blackened little heart for Sailor Moon, my very first anime, back when I was too young to understand the concepts of "dubbing" and "editting" and the actual quality thereof.

Was there something specific that prompted you to start writing fanfictions?

[identity profile] axtar.livejournal.com 2006-03-23 04:43 am (UTC)(link)
Hmmm...it all began with a certain long-haired elf along with his fellowship to escort a certain hobbit somewhere. I was (understandably enough) besotted with said elf, enough that I created a fictional character to lead him through lots of angsty romance. And everything just went from there I guess. ^^;;;;

Do you draw?

[identity profile] candy--chan.livejournal.com 2006-03-23 05:05 am (UTC)(link)
Ah, another LotR fan. I fell asleep during Fellowship...in the movie theatre...*hides*

Sadly, no, I cannot draw ;_; Always wished I had that happy talent, though. I have a couple of little things I doodle, like a kitty and an alien, and I can pen some awesome stick people! But nothing great.

Hmmm...favorite sport, if applicable?

[identity profile] axtar.livejournal.com 2006-03-23 05:21 am (UTC)(link)
Swimming. By far. I do okay in competitions. ^___^

Favorite subject?

[identity profile] candy--chan.livejournal.com 2006-03-23 04:14 pm (UTC)(link)
For core subjects: I've always been fascinated by history. The stories, the facts, the...inevitability. It's more or less the same, no matter who's telling it.

But my real love has always been my music. That's what I'm studying to do for the rest of my life ^_^

Favorite Conan couple? (Can be major, minor, secondary, whatever)

[identity profile] axtar.livejournal.com 2006-03-24 02:24 am (UTC)(link)
By far, Ran/Shinichi. ^___^ Though Kaito/Aoko is a close second. (Sorry, if my replies seem short, my my wrist is aching from yesterdays PChat session but I don't regret it AT ALL.)

Biggest word you know?

[identity profile] candy--chan.livejournal.com 2006-03-24 02:51 am (UTC)(link)
I've got two. I'm probably going to butcher the spelling on both, but here goes nothing:

- Antidisestablishmentarianism
- Isumanjigrunjunjinimik

I can't remember what the first one means, but the second one is an Eskimo word that means "to forgive." So I hope everyone will "isumanjigrunjunjinimik" me for spelling it so atrociously wrong ^^;;

Favorite ice cream or candy flavor?

[identity profile] axtar.livejournal.com 2006-03-24 03:38 am (UTC)(link)
Raspberry ripple! (though I'm always opened to new flavors) :3

*is discombobulated by the long words*

Favorite animal?

[identity profile] candy--chan.livejournal.com 2006-03-24 03:50 am (UTC)(link)
Dolphins!!! I LOVE DOLPHINS!! *laugh* It's kind of a running joke in my family that my sister and I are easy to shop for: she gets teddy bears, and I get dolphins. Whales are good too, especially orcas, but I've just always liked dolphins ^_^

Back atcha--what's your favorite animal?

[identity profile] axtar.livejournal.com 2006-03-24 04:32 am (UTC)(link)
Cheetahs:- they're so extremely pwnful and when they run, t gives one a sense of freedom, ya get what I mean? ^__^ Hamsters as well *squeeeeeee*

Since I didn't ask you before; favorite color? ;D
