Kinda a meme

[windemere]

1. Leave me a comment saying, "Interview me."
2. I respond by asking you a couple personal questions so I can get to know you better. If I already know you well, expect the questions may be a little more intimate!
3. You will update your LJ with the answers to the questions.
4. You will include this explanation and an offer to interview someone else in the post.
5. When others comment asking to be interviewed, you will ask them five questions.

sakai_yukari asked me the following:

1. So you have to decide: Daniel Jackson or Rodney McKay and why?
In all honesty I'd fuck them both, but if I honestly get to chose, I'd pick Rodney because right now I am in love with everything synedochic writes and she writes brilliant Rodney, and he is just so full of awesomeness, and half of that is the show writers and half of it is David and all of it is wonderful. Screw Sam, I'd marry him in a heartbeat and we could bitch at each other for eternity.

2. Of the presents I have given you, which is your favorite? The silver chalice, which was only half a gift because I was there when you bought it, but it was still wonderful and I treasure it because it was from you and it's my first chalice and probably my last. But really, just being you.

3. How has being Pagan affected how you view and live your life? I think it's made me more cynical, because now I'm part of a minority which people I know personal frown upon and I hate that. But at the same time, it's made me far more open and accepting of others and their beliefs, because it's only fair, and I appreciate the beauty of ritual and prayer, where before I hated them both. Nature has become more important to me, and I've become an environmentalist, much to my mother's annoyance, and if I could move to a cabin in the woods and live off of solar power for the rest of my life, I would. It's given me something that was missing before, and I'm grateful for that.

4. Where should you and I go when we decide to skip this annoying universe and head to another and when are we going to do that? Damn soon I hope. I was thinking about this the other day. A year ago it would have been Middle-earth in the early Third Age. Four months ago it would have been Arda in any age and I would have been happy. Now I'm kinda hooked on a one-way ticket to Atlantis, hopefully with the gene thrown in for full appreciation. Because I think we could get up to a whole shit-load of trouble in a floating (well, it's flying now, but we'll ignore that) city. Besides, Carson is lonely and he needs me. NOT A WORD KATE. And really, having Rodney around all the time is just too much fun to really pass up. Because I'm cynical and sarcastic and pessemistic, and I've got nothing on him. And I have no tolerance for stupid people either. I think the three of us would get along fabulously. Atlantis would never be the same again. ;D

5. What single factor excites you the most about studying abroad for grad school?
Getting to learn under a different teaching style and different professors. I love learning, but I love learning from different people more than anything. Even the bad profs have given me something. And living other places has always made me happier than living here.

5? That's it?

Well, the meme /says/ five. But I can ask you more if you'd like.

[eldanna.livejournal.com]

Go for it.

[grav-ity.livejournal.com]

Where was I when you posted that?

(Does this count as a word?)

[eldanna.livejournal.com]

It counts as 13, but I'll let it go.

It was just posted. Feel free to ask questions too.

[grav-ity.livejournal.com]

Interview me!

1. When did you know, for certain, you wanted to be an archaeologist?
2. Who has most influenced you in your life?
3. Middle-earth or Atlantis? Right now.
4. If you could visit one place and only one place in the world that you have never been, where would it be and why?
5. Are you happy you went to grad school?
