Because I want to try...

[Sapphire225]

As you guys can see from the right-side of my avatar (or left for those not logged in), I am most certainly not new here and have been here fairly often enough. Still, I want to do a Self Q&A, just for the heck of it. So ask away.

[Nate]

If you could be any Lanthanide, which would you be and why?

[Sapphire225]

Europium, because I would be in colored televisions. Also, I'm the most reactive.

1. Who's that in the avatar?
2. What's the significance of 225 in your username?
3. Favorite writers?

[Sapphire225]

favorite music?

My favorite is Techno-Jazz. A combo of my favorite two genres. But I also like old R&B and 60s-80s music. I blame my dad.

Favorite food?

MEAT! To be more specific...STEAK! Reeses Cups are second to meat.

3. Favorite writers?

1. That is Aisha Clan Clan from Outlaw Star, a show I haven't seen in ages until brought into Anime club in my last year at high school.

2. There is no true significance to those numbers at the end. When I was making an account for Neopets a LOOOOOOONG time ago, (If you go to my page, it really does say A long time ago), the name I originally wanted was used and I wanted to chose a similar name and thus, chose 225 because it was easier to remember. I'm sorry it wasn't really a heart-wrenching story.

3. Roald Dahl. I read Maltilda and the BFG when I was little and became a fan of his writing. Also, Dean Koontz and my mother.

other hobbys but Anime and video games?

[Ninety7keys]

When did you become a Christian? Were you born as one, or did you become one later on?

[Sapphire225]

why? (open ended question)

The answer to that is actually...why not?

favorite Anime?

other hobbys but Anime and video games?

I don't have a specific favorite anime, but my favorite kinds are sci0fi and horror. I like to read, play volleyball with friends, and go for walks around campus.

When did you become a Christian? Were you born as one, or did you become one later on?

Well, to be technical, I was raised in a Christian household but was agnostic for a extensive period of time once I was old enough to question things. I truly got saved and became a Christian around 14 years old.

3. Favorite Actors: Will Smith, Jackie Chan, Leonardo DiCaprio (I think that's how its spelled usually), Joe Mategna (heh, Italians are awesome!) and Hilary Swank
4. Dogs. Simply dogs. Although I love other animals too (even snakes)

1. I...don't remember exactly. I think I was trying to look up a Christian anime and probably wound up here.

2. I'm on facebook, but don't go on it much. Besides forums, that's about it.

3. Aslan of course! He's beastly...literally.

1. Do you read any comics?
2. Favorite superhero?
3. Ever read anything by Madeline L'Engle?

3. Ever read anything by Madeline L'Engle?

1. I'm huge on Transformers...seriously. If I'm not in your face talking to you about anime, I'm in your face talking to you about Transformers. Especially the G1 universe. The comics tend to be one of the things I love to read the most. But I sometimes read my Dad's Marvel comics on Superman, Batman, and the Silver Surfer. Also, The Archie Sonic was a favorite of mine when I was a Sonic fan; I still read it but not as big on it as I used to be.

2. Tough question. I would say Optimus Prime, but if you mean the more classic superheroes, I would say Batman because he lacks any superpowers yet can go toe-to-toe with someone with them. That requires true skill.

3. No, I'm afraid I haven't. But I'm guessing that since she has been suggested, she must be a good writer. I'll definately look mre into it and give you an update if I read one of her books.

1. What's your opinion on Michael Bay's version of Transformers?
2. Ever try out Pandora?

[Sapphire225]

1. Michael Bay's Transformers was pretty good. I liked the first movie considerably more than the second which seemed like they threw some stuff in. The Movieverse comics ware pretty good too. It took me a way to get accustom to the Bayformers because of the more realistic intricate designs but they work. And they actually have humans that aren't annoying. Still, IMO G1 reigns supreme.

2. Yep! That's my favorite thing to do to come across some new Jazz music! I usually use it when I'm doing a paper for school.

[rocklobster]

1. Favorite Jazz musician?
2. Ever watch Doctor Who?
3. You've been invited to a dinner with three dead historical figures you admire and you get to pick which ones. Which ones are you spending dinner with?

[piffle]

1. Given a choice between 1 million dollars now, or 2 million over the next five years, which would you choose?
2. Ice cream or cake?
3. Would you rather have two left hands or two right feet?
4. Country you would like to rule, and why?
5. Favorite Chuck Norris Joke?
6. Zombie invasion. What do you do?
7. Wake up one morning and your face is totally, literally, purple. Whats your first reaction, and what do you do?

I know, really random. But I'm looking forward to your answers.

1. Hard to choose. I like Kirk Whalum and the Sax Pack. Also a big fan of Bob James and Joyce Cooling. Keiko Matsui is a close second to fav.

2. I haven't watched it in a good minute. I probably need to rewatch the show. But yeah, The Doc Rocks!

3. Hm...George Washington, Martin Luther King Jr., and Erik Satie.

1. 2 million over the next five years. I can pretty much support myself in the time being. In 5 years, I'll be 23 (going on 24 since my birthday is May 6) and given more legal rights. Also, I'll be good enough to establish a home and pay off loans while looking for a job and pay my way to get my master's degree.

2. Depends. The Cake is a lie, so I'll probably go with ice cream.

3. I already have the equilibrium of a sick baby giraffe so I'd rather have two left hands.

4. Good question. I would say Russia because of their powerful army, but I beginning to think Canada would be more preferable.
They tend to keep out of trouble more than most countries.

5. The original "300" was a movie based on Chuck Norris' victorious stand against 10,000 Persians. 300 was his rkps (roundhouse kicks per second).

6. Bash the glass Zombie Emergency Kit and lock and load an AK-47 before getting into the car and driving out before they carpet bomb the place. Like any normal human should.

7. "Oh my gosh! I've become a mutant!...Sweet!"
In all honesty, I'd probably scream so loud I'd break my next door neighbor's windows. Then I'd relax and probably realize this was my younger sister's doing.

I'm glad you're interested in my answers. And besides, no question is complete without a healthy dose of random.

[piffle]

Haha, that was fun to read. XD
I've never heard that chuck norris joke. Processing New Fact.
Awesome answers. ^_^
And I think you'd survive the impending zombie takeover. Just be sure you have enough ammo, kk? ^_^

[TopazRaven]

1.) Do you play any video games?
2.) Ever watched Axis Powers Hetalia before? If so who is your favorite character?
3.) Who is your favorite Biblical figure other then Jesus?
4.) Paper or plastic?

I don't think you've been asked any of these yet, but if so just ignore them and I'm sorry. I missed something somewhere if that happens.

Thanks. You have to always be prepared for a zombie attack. Also helps there is a Zombie Survival Guide. Can't leave the house without one!

1. Boy do I. Unfortunately, because I live on campus at my college, my access to videogames has been limited since winter break. All that changes in the summer though.
2. Yes I do. I love Hetalia. My favorite characters are between America, The Italy brothers, and England. It has to be something but hilarious obnoxious characters that you can't help but love. Although England is not very obnoxious moreso hilarious when drunk.
3. Good question. Amos and Esther are pretty high on the list. So is Pau and Peter.
4. Plastic. It is more durable.

Don't worry about it. These questions are kind of familiar though. Maybe they were in a recent thread I posted in. In any case, they haven't been asked on this thread and I'm happy to answer them.

Glad you didn't mind answering them then! Now, I have to ask then since I know you play some now, favorite video games? As for Hetalia, I like those guys to! I actually usually can't stand obnoxious characters, but I make an acception for Hetalia. Yeah, England isn't really obnoxious, he's just a tsundere. xD I always seem to love the tempermental characters with an attitude.

No. Tell me, I'd love to know that.

1. Ever read Artemis Fowl?
2. What's your stance on Harry Potter?
3. Harry Potter vs. Artemis Fowl--who would win?

[Sapphire225]

1. I have heard of it and thought about reading it, however, thanks to my busy schedule, I've never got around to it. My sister may have read it though.

2....Religiously or as a view on the book? If you mean religiously, then I think it is alright to read it as long as you can distingush between fantasy and reality. I never knew why many people thought nobody should read it, nothing was to be taken seriously. In fact, my mother originally kept me from reading it when I was younger because she heard about the witchcraft and stuff in it. I wasn't even allowed to watch the movie. She lightened up though when she realized she was a bit too overprotective (I was a very sheltered child) and overreacted, and allowed me to read it but it was by the time all the books were published so I was kind of behind and it became old news when I talked about it to friends.

If you mean about my view on it as a good book, then yes. It is a pretty good read. It is definately more well-plotted and nicely written than some books *coughcoughTwilightcough* and is a nice read.

3. When I get my hands on Artemis Fowl, I let you know. (After I finish A Wrinkle in Time, thanks to college, my hands are pretty full at the time.)
