Get to Know You Game|Yayzers!

[fagin]

I'd have to say black. Almost all my clothes are that colour, or have it somewhere about them. I only have about two pairs of shoes that aren't black. XD It goes with everything. And it's stereotypically quite theatrical too. ^^

Do you plan on going to unviersity/are you at university? If so what do you hope to/what do you study?

[ricketts]

The next few years are pretty planned out for me in that respect. Right now, I'm still in high school and come May on my study leave. After that I'm at college for two years doing a foundation Art course, then hopefully if I get through that I get to goto University - Edgehill Liverpool, I'm hopin' - for a degree in fine Art.

I like this question, so same applies

[benvolio]

Definitely. I've got one more year of high school, and then I'm off to whatever college I eventually decide on.

What are your plans for the weekend?

[georgie]

going to see A Midsummer Night's Dream in the park, cantoring at church, voice recital on Sunday and TONY AWARD WATCHING XD

Do you own a Wii and if so what's your favorite game?

[fagin]

My brother and my best friend own Wiis. XD My favourite game is Mario Kart. ^^

What book are you reading at present?

[majesticdemise]

Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince.... O.e it's SNAPE ISN'T IT!! Gawd. lol


If you could pick one movie star to go on a date with, who would it be, and why?

[JANE EYRE]

Date a movie star? Hmm. Probably have to say Evan Lysacek because he is a celebrity but he isn't a super star so there would be some privacy. Plus, he's adorkable

Do you have a favorite poet? How about a favorite poem?

[RICHARD PLANTAGENET]

Ooh, great question! I love lots of poets...Gervase Phinn, Seamus Heaney, Shakespeare, Thomas Hardy, Robert Burns...hard to pick a favourite.
Same with poems. XD My favourites at present are 'Scots Wha Hae' (Burns), 'The Voice' (Hardy), 'Mid-Term Break' (Heaney) and 'Dulce Et Decorum Est' (Wilfred Owen). ^^

In a similar vein, do you have a favourite playwright? If so, what is your favourite of the plays they have penned?

[majesticdemise]

I don't have a really favorite playwright. But I suppose, for my mood, right now it's Shakespeare. I'm in love with too many of his plays.

And I do want to answer my own question. It'd be Eric Dill, my playby. He's also adorkable, and he's famous, but not all that superstar-ish either. He's more, there.


If you could chose one person in the world that you could be other than yourself, who would it be?

[benvolio]

Actually, I have a very weird answer to that right now: Roger Hanlon. I went to the aquarium today, and was reminded of my everlasting love for cuttlefish. This guy has devoted his life to studying them; I think that's pretty awesome!

If you could have been born in a different place and/or time period, what would you choose?

[LADY CATHERINE DE BOURGH]

Ooh, I want to do this one!
I often say the Victorian Era since I'm such a Dickensian, but recently I've been thinking The Wars Of The Roses, although violent and bloody, would be pretty swell too, a truly fascinating and exciting time; YORKISTS FTW.

-ahem-

Funny thing is, whenever I ask my Mum that question (I have a whole bank of similar 'random questions' I like to ask) she always says she wants to stay in the present as she couldn't stand to go anywhere without proper toilets/good hygiene. XD

As for place, I'd say Scotland. Just so I'd have a proper Scottish accent. Everyone thinks I'm English or American. D:< Not that I have anything against either place, it's just that I'm Scottish and wish to be seen as such.


Now, here's a question for you lovely people!

If you were a royal for a day, which royal would you be and why? (Past or present, it matters not)

[JANE EYRE]

If you were a royal for a day, which royal would you be and why? (Past or present, it matters not)

Catherine the Great. She was pretty great. Not to mention to came into power by her own devices and then ruled Russia.

If you had to live the life of a main character from from a novel, who would it be? i.e. Holden Caulfield from Catcher in the Rye, Nick Carroway from The Great Gatsby.

[georgie]

I think it'd be bad taste if I said Bella Swan from Twilight (just cause I'd want Edward as my boyfriend/husband ;-) ) so I'll say... it's a toss-up for me between Beauty from Robin McKintley's Beauty, Ever Bloom from the Immortials Series and Sherlock Holmes. *is SUCH a nerd*

If you could live in one theme park in the world, where would you live and why, if ya feel like it? (i.e. Walt Disney World, Universal Studios, Disneyland...ect)

[sodapop]

Hmmm, let see. *Gets out checklist* Spider-Man, Harry Potter, Dr. Suess, Dueling Dragons? I'm gonna have to go with Universal Studios Florida (ISLANDS OF ADVENTURE) although any theme park with Spider-man is good for me X3

What do you dislike about Twilight? Like Twilight? What do you like about it?
