Well we haven't had one of these in a while, and GD threads a getting a bit too much of the 'look at this funny/interesting/stupid link' variety, so in the great tradition of such threads as Melusine's excellent "Getting to know you", here is the Great Big Quiz. Everyone likes to talk about themselves after all, and there are quite a few newer people who I'm sure we'd like to get to know better [img]smile.gif[/img]
How old are you? What game originally brought you to IW? What city do you live in? What sort of place do you live in (e.g., house, townhouse, apartment, etc.)? What is your favourite and least favourite vegetable? When you were young (i.e. under 12), what did you want to be when you grew up (an adult! Har har... No, what occupation )? How many pairs of shoes do you have? Are you left-handed or right-handed? Black coffee or with milk? Do you have a tattoo or piercings? Can you whistle? Do you have a sweet tooth or savoury tooth? If you could choose any time from the past in which to have lived, when and where would it be, and why (e.g., 17th century France, America in the 1920s, 3rd century BC Greece, etc.)? White, brown, or multigrain bread? What book are you reading currently or read most recently? How much sleep do you get? Preferred type of chocolate - dark, milk, or white? Spray, stick, or roll-on deodorant? Who are you going for in the World Cup? What movie genre do you prefer - comedy, thriller, drama, action, animated, musical, (other)? What colour is your hair? Black jellybeans - yum or yuck? Do you have a pet? What, who, how old, etc? What's one thing in the past year that you're proud of achieving?

Ahh, good to see that you're still around, Aelia. So, questions asked, questions answered.
How old are you? 20. What game originally brought you to IW? Baldur's Gate. What city do you live in? I attend college a stone's throw away from New York City. What sort of place do you live in (e.g., house, townhouse, apartment, etc.)? Apartment. What is your favourite and least favourite vegetable? Favourite would have to be cucumbers, though tomatoes bear mentioning because of all you can do with them. I suppose basil is an herb and not a vegetable, so it doesn't qualify. As for least favourite, I'd have to say broccoli. When you were young (i.e. under 12), what did you want to be when you grew up (an adult! Har har... No, what occupation )? Hm, I wanted to teach, as I do now, but I think I also wanted to act and to work for the CIA. How many pairs of shoes do you have? Oy. Let me go check... Not counting several pairs of dancing shoes, I have 14. Are you left-handed or right-handed? Yes. (I'm ambidexterous) Black coffee or with milk? Usually it's with milk, as on campus it's usually burnt and thus too hot and bitter to drink straight. If it's any better and I'm in less of a hurry, I drink it black. And I drink a LOT of it. Do you have a tattoo or piercings? Just in my ears. Can you whistle? Not well. Do you have a sweet tooth or savoury tooth? Sweet, definately. If you could choose any time from the past in which to have lived, when and where would it be, and why (e.g., 17th century France, America in the 1920s, 3rd century BC Greece, etc.)? Ancient Greece, though I'd also like to live in pre-Christian Ireland, during the time of the druids. White, brown, or multigrain bread? That depends on what it's for. Usually white or multigrain. What book are you reading currently or read most recently? Games for Actors and Non-Actors, by Boal. How much sleep do you get? 4-5 hours on most nights, 5-8 hours on weekends. Preferred type of chocolate - dark, milk, or white? Dark. Spray, stick, or roll-on deodorant? Well, I use one of those deodorant crystals. Not sure what that is. Sometimes I also use stick. Who are you going for in the World Cup? Um, I'm only 60% sure I know what sport that is. What movie genre do you prefer - comedy, thriller, drama, action, animated, musical, (other)? Comedy, though I like a bit of everything. My favourite movie is a thriller/drama, so I mix it up. What colour is your hair? Blonde with natural highlights. Black jellybeans - yum or yuck? I hate all jellybeans, but black ones hold a special place of distaste in my heart. Do you have a pet? What, who, how old, etc? There are a few in my house, but the only one that's truly mine is a cat named Max, who I call my familiar. After months of absence, he follows me around the house like a shadow and tries to keep me from leaving again. What's one thing in the past year that you're proud of achieving? When I directed The Vagina Monologues, we sold out for two nights and raised over $4,000 for a rape crisis center and won a major award for it.
