Get to Know Me

Rules: Always post the rules. Tag 11 new people you’d like to know better.

1. Dogs or Cats?

Dogs for sure. I grew up with dogs and never really knew any cats so I don’t know how to read cats at all--but I do still enjoy their company.

2. YouTube celebrities or normal celebrities?

Neither but normal celebrities.

3. If you could live anywhere where would that be?

I’m pretty happy where I am (BC, Canada), to be honest. The downside is it’s expensive and I got lucky enough to be able to stay. I used to think maybe I could move to Montreal but I actually went there and it felt a lot like Vancouver but French.

4. Disney or DreamWorks?

I never differentiated between the two. When I watched a lot of movies, I used to think Disney, DreamWorks, and Pixar were the same company so that’s really muddled my perception of them and their work. I’m leaning DW though.

5. Favourite childhood TV show?

Uhh it was probably... DBZ. I watched a lot of stuff but DBZ was the only series I watched from beginning to end multiple times and religiously every Friday evening. I also loved Reboot and Beasties/Beast Wars.

6. The movie you’re looking forward to most in 2020

I don’t even know what came out in the last five years let alone what’s out next year. I rarely watch movies. Let me look...

Perhaps The King’s Man, as I really liked Kingsman. Maybe Venom 2, because... I liked the first movie. Will I see them? Probably not.

7. Favorite book you read in 2019?

I haven’t read any books through this year, I don’t think. I believe I went to the library a grand total of once, whereas I used to go every week. I did borrow three books last week, so maybe one of these will count?

How to Knit by Leslie Ann Bestor

Japanese Paper Flowers by Hiromi Yamazaki

Chinese Mythology A to Z by Jeremy Roberts

8. Marvel or DC?

Literally the only character I think of for DC is Green Lantern and I didn’t even watch those movies. So, Marvel.

9. If you choose Marvel favorite member of the X-Men? If you choose DC favourite Justice League member?

THIS GAME IS HARD. Nightcrawler was my favourite when I watched the animated series that aired Saturday mornings--not sure which one that was. I used to like Cyclops in the first few movies because I liked James Marsden’s style. I really liked Quicksilver’s intro in X-men. Uhm... Deadpool? :D

10. Night or Day?

Night, though I prefer light and chirping birds.

11. Favourite Pokemon?

I have agonised over this for years. I used to love Charmander but I've drifted away and don’t have a favourite anymore. I kinda want to say Mawile.

12. Top 5 bands:

My first instinct is to say Celldweller, Blue Stahli, Linkin Park, Florence + the Machine, and Yuki Kajiura (assuming “bands” also means “artists”). I think that still holds true-ish but nowadays I just listen to whatever I find that I enjoy, so it’s a lot of liking one song each from various artists.

13. Top 10 books.

I haven’t read much lately and don’t generally have favourites so these are mostly books I loved when I was a lot younger. In no particular order and probably missing some, ones I read multiple times:

Switchers series by Kate Thompson

White Fox Chronicles by Gary Paulsen

Animorphs and Everworld series by K. A. Applegate

Dragonback series by Timothy Zahn

Dragonriders of Pern by Anne McCaffrey

Redwall series by Brian Jacques

Space Wolf saga by William King

Gaunt’s Ghosts series by Dan Abnett

Mercy Thompson series by Patricia Briggs

The Dragon Takes a Wife by Walter Dean Myers (art by Fiona French)

14. Top 4 movies

Same as with any “top”/favourite things... I have no idea. How about some movies I liked and would recommend?

Legend of LuoXiaoHei (Legend of Hei is what you’ll probably find it under) - I recently watched the series (unfinished?) and the movie and they were both great but the movie takes the cake. If you have time to watch either, go for the movie. It has a Ghibli vibe, ATLA action and animation, and Chinese themes.

Into the Spiderverse

Kingsman

Summer Wars

I’m sure there are plenty I’ll kick myself for forgetting but here are four.

15. America or Europe?

I’ve never been to Europe but I think I’ll say Europe.

16. Tumblr or Twitter?

I’m between both about equally and infrequently. Fdsfjlskjfldksg Tumblr?

17. Pro-choice or Pro-life?

Pro-choice.

18. Favorite YouTuber?

None; I don’t follow people on YT. Props to people who upload entire themed series of music though.

19. Favorite author ?

Hard to say since, again, I haven’t read anyone in a while. W. B. Yeats. Charles de Lint.

20. Tea or Coffee?

Tea. I’ve never had coffee. I tried to eat a coffee bean though because I thought it was chocolate. Does that count?

21. OTP?

Uh. CloudxTifa, ZackxAerith, and EstinienxYsayle? :D? Wait, CuinnxAzena and Cuinn/Dalai LFKAJKLF (them ships with @pearlescent-scales)

22. Do you play an instrument/sing ?

Used to! I started on a recorder and xylophone (FORCED TO), moved to flute of my own volition, tried out trumpet and trombone, picked up a little acoustic guitar (I suck though, don’t ask me anything about guitars), and finished up my band career with a baritone. The only instrument I still have is my flute but I don’t live in a place that I can really practise. I left my guitar with my dad but I could pick it up again if I really wanted to.

Thank you for the tag, @niomemizune! I did it!!

TAGGING (and don’t feel you need to do it): @pearlescent-scales @refulgents @grumpy-limsan-customs-cat @elegant-etienne @ahumblewoodcarver @daintycure @eggplant-xaela @cockiestmageeorzea @thaneratelesia @ayeun @untaintedtea HHHH I think that’s 11!
