I enjoy anime and manga, singing, music, playing guitar, playing piano, body modification, photography, drawing, drawing on the computer, animals, flowers, collecting dragons, wolves, drama masks, unicorns, fairies, vampires, InuYasha, Star Trek (all but "Enterprise"), Buffy: TVS, games and friends. I also have a huge stuffed penguin collection and a few other penguin themed things. I also believe avidly in attachment parenting.

Which Hogwarts house will you be sorted into?
You are Peter Petrelli. You have the awesome ability to use other people's powers. Most people wouldn't pay any particular attention to you, but you have always known that you were meant for things greater than what you currently have.
Take the Magic: The Gathering 'What Color Are You?' Quiz.
Beauty, happiness, pleasure, success, luxury, dissipation.
The Empress is associated with Venus, the feminine planet, so it represents, beauty, charm, pleasure, luxury, and delight. You may be good at home decorating, art or anything to do with making things beautiful.
The Empress is a creator, be it creation of life, of romance, of art or business. While the Magician is the primal spark, the idea made real, and the High Priestess is the one who gives the idea a form, the Empress is the womb where it gestates and grows till it is ready to be born. This is why her symbol is Venus, goddess of beautiful things as well as love. Even so, the Empress is more Demeter, goddess of abundance, then sensual Venus. She is the giver of Earthly gifts, yet at the same time, she can, in anger withhold, as Demeter did when her daughter, Persephone, was kidnapped. In fury and grief, she kept the Earth barren till her child was returned to her.
What Tarot Card are You?
Take the Test to Find Out.
Marilyn Manson (have you ever read an interview with the guy? He's fucking fascinating and seems like a nice guy!), Johnny Depp (he's just cool), Bruce Willis (he seems like he'd be a nice guy), Tim Burton (okay, he's a little scary looking, but I'd LOVE to be in one of his movies), Angelina Jolie... or really, anyone interesting.
STABBING WESTWARD (I miss you guys!!), Seether (my current fave band), Three Day's Grace, Shinedown, Bush, Evanescence (Amy Lee, you are so freaking lucky: you got the band I always dreamed of being in), Chevelle, Garbage, The Dreaming, Deftones, Korn (off and on), Smashing Pumpkins, Madonna (immaculate collection and before only), Guns N' Roses (AFD-UYI2), Aerosmith (who doesn't like at least ONE Aerosmith song?), Queen, Rolling Stones, Beatles, Tool, 30 Seconds to Mars... some other bands I'm sure I'm forgetting... my ideal music is somewhere between industrial and orchestral goth or darkwave... problem is, so many of the bands are wonderful bands with horrible singers that I haven't found one that I particularly like. Then again, sometimes it's just hard rock that I like the best.
Labyrinth, Willow, Jurassic Park, Legend, The Fifth Element, Rocky Horror Picture Show, Interview with the Vampire, Bram Stoker's Dracula, Evolution, X-Men and X2 (ignore the comic plotline to enjoy), Harry Potter movies (as long as I don't compare them to the books), a bunch of Will Smith movies, a bunch of Tim Burton movies, Terminator 1&2, The Whole Nine Yards, The Sixth Sense, Spiderman 1&2, Paulie, Overboard, Now and Then, the Star Trek movies (and TNG movies), Kindergarten Cop, Foxfire, Tomb Raider 1&2 (the first one wasn't enough like the games for me, but I still like it--awesome casting for Lara).. okay, I have to stop, I like too many movies...

Buffy the Vampire Slayer (one of the only series I can watch over and over and over...), Heroes, Mai HiME, InuYasha, Naruto, Negima, Full Metal Alchemist, Eureka Seven, Ai Yori Aoshi, Bleach, sCRYed, Fruits Basket, Futurama, Law and Order: SVU, Star Trek, ST: TNG, ST: Voyager, ST: DS9, the 4400, Roseanne (the other series I can watch repeatedly), Drawn Together (one of the funniest shows I've ever seen, despite the potty humor), South Park, King of Queens... ironic because I barely watch tv...
Harry Potter (and I tried to avoid reading them because they were a fad--or so I thought, they really are awesome), Anita Blake: Vampire Hunter, Dresden Files, most anything that's not pure sci-fi by Anne McCaffrey, Elvenbane, Elvenblood, The Deathgate Cycle, Ramona series by Beverly Cleary, bunch of Star Trek: TNG books, and a bunch of V.C. Andrews. I'll read most anything, but prefer sci-fi (not the stuff with words that don't have vowels or that are overtechnical), horror, fantasy and dark fantasy.
I didn't used to believe in heroes.. heroes end up dead. But then I got to thinking and I realized that a hero doesn't have to die to inspire, nonetheless, most of mine are dead.
I suppose though... Rosa Parks, who wouldn't give up her seat, amongst other things, less known.
Mahatma Gandhi because he never wavered in his unshakable belief in nonviolent protest and religious tolerance.
Hellen Keller, who was born 100 years before me, only 10 days off, who fought for the rights of the blind and for her own life despite being blind and deaf, and of course, the woman who didn't give up on her: Anne Sullivan, who overcame severe adversity herself.
Jesus. That's right. The people who know I'm not christian may be shocked, but the fact is, the man (who most christians don't even bother to follow a single word he said, preferring the words of hatemongers) stood up for and died for what he believed. Even if you don't believe he really existed, he's still a personal hero for what he stood for, because real or myth, he was a good man who didn't preach hatred but rather tolerance and love--something lost over the years.
Martin Luther King, Jr. I shouldn't have to explain that, if you're a decent, educated person, you know why.
His Holiness the 14th the Dalai Lama Tenzin Gyatso, for so many reasons. I think he's the only one still alive on this list...
I'm not great at remembering individual names, really. Those were a few that stuck with me, but really, any person who fought, particularly at peril of their life, for human rights, non-violently are my biggest heroes. Also, every person who has the guts to be themselves, particularly in places where it could be dangerous to do so--whether for their beliefs, because they're gay, for their freedom, for an education or anything that could better not only their own lives, but the lives of others.
