Is it at all obvious that I'm procrastinating...?

Mon Mar 23, 2009, 11:45 AM
  • Mood: Tired
  • Listening to: By You - The Mitch Hansen Band
Stole this from the lovely :icondailenna:, because I have nothing better to do with my time. Except write a sociology essay. Which I should be doing right now.

1. What does your deviantart name mean and why?
I decided to be really creative (*laughs at self*) and use my own name, but twisted it a little. My name is not Kerry Emmanuelle. But it's fairly obvious to me how I produced it. Why? Because I can.

2. When I joined?
Umm...must have been a few years ago now. And I've still only got about 4 deviations.

3. How many watchers do you have now?
10 or so, I think.

4. Name 3 of your favourite artists on DA.
I don't like picking. Makes me feel bad. You're all brilliant.

5. Do you comment, fav, or both?
I tend to fave. I rarely comment on anything, because I'm evil like that.

(Has anyone else noticed that number 6 is missing?)

7. What is your most popular deviation?
"A Letter". With all of 1 faves. I laughed.

8. What are your favourite non-anime TV shows?
Law & Order; Law & Order: SVU; One Tree Hill

9. What are the things you wish you could draw better?
To be honest, I haven't drawn anything in years, nor do I particularly have the urge to. find I enjoy writing more than drawing. So, seeing as I don't really draw, this question is moot :P

10. Summer or winter?
Probably winter. I like being able to wrap up when I go outside. Plus winter = December, which is my favourite month of the year. Mind you, I am enjoying the sun we've been getting at the moment...

11. Rain or Sun?
Sun, hands down. Although preferably without the extreme heat that can go with it. Florida in summer...give my Scottish sun anyday. It may be sunny, but I still need my coat and scarf. I hate rain.

12. What's your favourite type of music?
Oh, these questions are hard. My taste in music is pretty varied. I used to love symphonic metal, still do as a matter of fact. But now I love alternative rock as well. Give me a singer accompanied by an accoustic guitar or piano, and I'm happy.

13. PC or Mac?
PC. I remember the Macs we had in primary school, and they were too confusing for my 10-year-old brain to comprehend ^^;

14. Anime or Manga?
Manga, methinks.

15. Coke or Pepsi?
Coke. But only the Diet variety. Or the citrus stuff. Yum.

16. Read or TV?
Depends what it is, or what mood I'm in. TV's definitely better when your brain is dead (like now, for example) but reading has always been so enjoyable.

17. How many hours a day do you spend on DA?
Definitely less than one. I rarely come on here anymore.

18. Name a hidden talent.
I have a super secret ability to impersonate an Irish accent. How skilled I am.

19. Flash or traditional cartoons?
Not bothered either way.

20. What is your favourite fast food restaurant?
McDonalds. Their chips and milkshakes are fantastic. Although perhaps not together.

21. What are your top 3 favourite books?
Why must you give me all these favourite questions?

Um...currently, I love the Twilight saga by Stephenie Meyer. 'We Need To Talk About Kevin' is pretty damn good as well. Oh, and Karen Slaughter's Grant County series is equally fantasmical.

22. Wii or Playstation?
PS1, all the way. I'm not really much of a gamer, and the only game I've ever owned (Popstar Maker) was for PS1. Plus, I was pretty good at Theme Park World.

23. Name 3 of your favourite bands.
More faves? Why?

Currently: Paramore, The Indigo Girls & Epica

24. Are you a fast, slow, or medium typer?
I'd like to think that I'm fairly fast, although with the speed my computer's running at at the moment, I'm probably pretty slow.

25. Do you like Denny's?
Doesn't exist in the UK.

26. What is your favourite emoticon?
:glomp:

27. What is your favourite type of pie?
Mmm.....apple pie......I'm hungry now.

28. Have you ever stayed up for 24 hours?
Yup. I once stayed up for 48 hours because we were flying to Florida, and we had to get an 8am flight from Manchester on the Saturday morning, and we live in Glasgow, so we had to leave at midnight. So didn't sleep from Thursday night until Saturday night, EST. It makes me exhausted just thinking about it.

29. Do you go on YouTube a lot?
Pretty much every time I'm on the web. There is much music on there that I don't own.

30. Are you a member on any other sites besides DA?
Oh yes. A ridiculous amount.

31. Do you cosplay?
Nope.

32. Fruits or sweets?
Sweets, methinks. If I've understood the question.

33. Buttered, plain, or salted popcorn?
Don't like popcorn. Sure makes the cinema fun :P

34. Have you skipped school?
Nope. I was a good child :laughing:

35. Have you been on a plane?
Yup.

36. Have you swum in an ocean?
In Scotland? Are you serious? Getting hypothermia is not on my list of things to do before I'm 30. (Not that I have a list.)

37. Have you been ice skating?
Twice. Suck at it. Spent most of both sessions clinging to the edge of the rink. Must have been pretty funny to watch.

38. Favourite vacation spot
Umm...my family only really ever goes to St. Andrews, land of golf. I don't enjoy it very much. Would rather just stay at home.

39. Ever been on TV?
Nope.

40. Favourite salad dressing?
Don't like salad. Don't like dressing. I would drive you nuts.

41. What do you do to relax?
Stay at home, watch bad TV, go on the web, read stuff, write stuff, etc.

42. What is the last film you saw in the theatres?
Bride Wars. It was awful. Genuinely appalling.

43. Favourite Sandwich?
Turkey :)

44. If you could go anywhere in the world...
I'd really like to go to New York.

45. Favourite time of the day?
Night.

46. What did you want to be when you were little?
An author

47. What do you want to be now?
Still would love to write for a living. Other than that, not a clue.

48. If you could eat with one person, who would it be?
...I don't know.

49. What character would you hate to be stuck in a room with?
Greevey from Law & Order. Could not stand him.

50. When is your birthday?
8th October

51. Favourite type of ice cream?
Ben & Jerry's Phish Food. I think there's a tub in the freezer...

52. Last book you read?
Breaking Dawn, by Stephenie Meyer.

53. Which store would you max out a credit card at?
Probably New Look. A ridiculously large proportion of my clothes are from there.

54. Do you buy / sell / both on eBay?
Nope.

55. What is the most annoying thing people ask you?
Whenever people ask the price of something at work. All the products have price tags on them. Look for them, people.

56. Favourite all time movie?
The Magdalene Sisters. It makes me cry.

57. What was your favourite show when you were a kid?
I remember loving 'Tots TV' when I was about 3. And then it was the Powerpuff Girls. Because I'm awesome.

58. What are you listening to right now?
Already Dead, by the Mitch Hansen Band. Yay, Twirock.

59. What is the last thing you ate?
Some chicken yakitori...I think that's what it's called.

60. If you were a crayon what colour would you be?
Blue, probably.

61. What is the first thing you notice about the opposite sex?
I don't know, can't say it's something I've really thought about too much.

62. Favourite sport to play?
I don't really play sport (gasp!). I used to play netball though, and it was fun until I got to high school. Does that count?

63. Favourite Day of the Year?
Christmas.

64. Hugs or Kisses?
Hugs.

65. Vanilla or Chocolate?
Chocolate!

66. Favourite Board Game?
Cluedo, because my brother didn't understand the concept of bluffing, and I always beat him. Like I've said, I'm evil.

67. Favourite smells?
Freshly baked bread.

68. What inspires you?
Many things.

69. Do you have any piercings?
Two in each earlobe. Such a rebel.

One little brother.

71. Bacon Bits or croutons?
Neither.

72. Favourite Day of the Week?
Friday.

73. Favourite phrase?
Dunno, I say so many things on a regular basis.

Frankie & Benny's. Their BBQ chicken pizza is amazing.

75. Favourite animal?
I don't like animals. I am evil.

76. Favourite thing to do outside
Walk.

77. Favourite thing to do when it's raining?
Sit inside. However, when you live in Scotland, you can't do that everytime it rains. You'd never leave the house :P

78. Favourite Disney character?
I don't know, it's so hard to choose.

79. Do you like coffee? If so, what is your favourite brand?
Oooh, I love coffee. We've got Kenco instant stuff in the cupboard, I think. I love Starbucks, though.

80. Tag 6 people.
No. What's the point? No one does them.

Thing!

I stole this from ~dailenna, cos I have nothing better to do with my time. Oh how exciting my life is.

6. With the exception of the computer, what can you hear?
A car outside. It's really quiet at the moment, actually.

7. When did you last step outside? What were you doing?
About 10.55pm last night, getting out of my mum's car after she'd picked me up from work.

8. Before you started this survey, what did you look at?
~dailenna's journal, where I got this from.

9. What are you wearing?
Jeans, a New York t-shirt, and my mum's giant fleece.

10. Did you dream last night?
If I did I can't remember it. Half of my dreams involve folding things. See what work does to me? :D

11. When did you last laugh?
I can't remember. How sad is that? 18 years old and I'm already going senile.

12. What are on the walls of the room you are in?
Wallpaper that's been painted over with purple paint, because my dad couldn't be bothered taking the wallpaper off :D

18. If you could change one thing about the world, regardless of guilt or politics, what would you do?
Can't think of an answer to this one.

Not really. I'm crap at it and way too self-conscious to ignore my being crap at it.

I was thinking about moving to the US or Canada, but not at the moment. Obviously.

24. What do you want God to say to you when you reach the pearly gates?
I don't believe in God, so there's not really much point in me answering this :P

Oh my...

  • Mood: Apprehensive
  • Listening to: iTunes on shuffle
  • Drinking: coffee
It just dawned on me that I haven't updated this thing in a year and a half. How time flies.

I've left high school now. It's so strange to think that in a few weeks I will be a student at university, travelling into Glasgow every morning...no more late nights, I guess.

I haven't written anything in a while actually. Maybe I should do something about that. I'm lacking in inspiration at the moment though. Ah well.

Tagged >.<

Tagged by

Well, then...this should be interesting

It's pretty simple:
The player of this "game" starts with the topic "6 weird habits/things/hates about yourself" and people who get tagged MUST write a journal about their 6 weird habits/things/hates as well as state this rule clearly. In the end, you need to choose the next 6 people to be tagged and list their names. Don't forget to leave a comment that says "you are tagged" in their devpage comments and tell them to read yours.

So, um...here we go ^^

1. I say 'A-choi' instead of 'A-choo' when I sneeze. Blame Azumanga Daioh. I tried doing the sneeze once to see what it was like and I've never been able to stop ^^;;;

2. I really hate getting muddy. Or dirty. Or anything along those lines. It drives people nuts :P

3. I hate text speak. And ned speak. If you're gonna speak English, at least try to do it properly. K-wolity is not a word, okies?

4. DJ music gives me great strength. It allows me to take my brother's DJ-music-playing phone out of his hands and throw it across the room. I hate DJ music :P

5. Um...I love French. *hides*

6. I have an obsession with penguins and cows. Yay!

And my chosen victims are:



I'm only gonna inflict this on three people, probably because just about everyone else has already been tagged...and I hope those three people don't kill me for this >< I love you too much to be killed by you ^^;;;;;

so...bored...

I'm so bored. I'm stuck babysitting my little brother. He's being a pain *angst* And he's managed to get outside somehow without me hearing?!?!? I'M SO CONFUSED!!! *dies*

But on the bright side, I is going to London on Saturday with Larry-chan! Suddenly everything seems so much brighter!

I should probably go do some homework now, or something.
