Your Inner Color is Purple
Your Personality: You're a dreamer and visionary. You believe you were put on this earth to do something great.
You in Love: You're very passionate but often too busy for love. You need a partner who sees your vision and adopts it as their own.
Your Career: You need a job that helps you make a difference. You have a bright future as a guru, politician, teacher, or musician. What's Your Inner Color?
You Are Indigo
Of all the shades of blue, you are the most funky, unique, and independent.
Expressing yourself and taking a leap of faith has always been easy for you. What Color Blue Are You?
You Are Teal Green
You are a one of a kind, original person. There's no one even close to being like you.
Expressive and creative, you have a knack for making the impossible possible.
While you are a bit offbeat, you don't scare people away with your quirks.
Your warm personality nicely counteracts and strange habits you may have. What Color Green Are You?
Dark Purple
To others, you seem a bit dark, mysterious, and moody.
In truth, you are just a very unique person who doesn't care what others think.
And you really enjoy your offbeat interests and friends.
You've decided that life is about living for yourself - simple as that. What Color Purple Are You?
"You like things edgy, subtle, and smart. I guess that means you're probably an intellectual, but don't take that to mean pretentious. You realize 'dumb' can be witty--after all isn't that the Simpsons' philosophy?--but rudeness for its own sake, 'gross-out' humor and most other things found in a fraternity leave you totally flat. I guess you just have a more cerebral approach than most. You have the perfect mindset for a joke writer or staff writer.Your sense of humor takes the most thought to appreciate, but it's also the best, in my opinion."

My Interests

Artsy-craftsy nonsense, same as every other teenager these days. Seriously. Except I'm also awesome. I dabble in most oddly artsy things... except I don't make my own music. Not yet, at least. It happens. I adore politics. I have a sewing machine, which makes lots of people happy. I'm interested in things that will change my life. People, music, art, books, webcomics, bungee-jumping, interning (♥), whatever. I don't care what it is.

I'd like to meet:

You, theoretically speaking.
Or I could make a list. But it'll be a really long list of bands I want to see in concert, most likely.
Or a bunch of dead people. Cheerful, that.
Well, to be fair, I do want to meet people who are friends with my friends, because my friends have amazing tastes in people. Well, theoretically.
So I guess it's down to people who do amazing things. Same as usual. That's probably the sort of thing most people put down, no?

I suppose there's always the obvious:

Einstein

Stephen Hawking

Bob Dylan

Tom Waits

Don Van Vliot

The Beatles (all of them, obviously)

Jhonn Balance

Sleazy

My sister's sort-of-almost-boyfriend

Melissa Kaplan

Luka Delaney

Kate Ashwin

Johnny Hollow

Leonard Cohen

Exit Clov

Jared

Tove Jansson

Joyce Carol Oates

Firewater

Paul Simon

My friend's friend's rat

Art Garfunkel

Freddie Mercury (and the rest of Queen)

Some dead relatives o'mine

Belle & Sebastian

The Decemberists

Etc.

Music:

For the most part, I love bizarre, off-beat music. It's far more interesting that way. Probably my favorite band of all time is Coil.
Today, however, I'm listening to charming, quirky music. Splashdown, Universal Hall Pass, Firewater, Exit Clov, Johnny Hollow, Golem, Tom Waits, Leonard Cohen, Coil, etcetera.
Okay, I guess most of that isn't necessarily charming. But Splashdown really is. Seriously, check out Universal Hall Pass (the current incarnation of Splashdown) because that's an amazing band.
Currently I plan to blow all my money on Coil CDs because that's how I roll. No joke. Too bad I, uh, don't have any money. Psh.
I love Of Montreal and Belle and Sebastian even though they're quite terribly popular. Too bad, how sad. So yes, I am perfectly willing to listen to and enjoy popular music. As long as it's good.
Bizarrely enough, I also love new wave and disco. Don't ask.
I'll listen to any genre. I definitely adore: experimental, industrial, trip-hop, folk, country, black metal, death metal, power metal (for LIFE), darkwave, indie pop, classical, opera, bluegrass, psychedelic, 70s metal, classic rock, blues, electronica, techno, jazz, gospel, aggrotech, neofolk, ambient, post-electronic, EBM, martial industrial (haha, military pop!), new wave, disco, punk, art rock, death industrial, coldwave, IDM, klezmer, punk cabaret, ska, cajun, Gregorian chant (what, that totally counts), gypsy jazz, j-rock, Celtic, dark ambient, medieval, synthpop, folk metal, futurepop, math rock, swing, troll metal, trance, and some other stuff I'm probably forgetting.
I'm, uh, less pretentious than I look.
Today I'm listening to Coil, Splashdown, Leonard Cohen, Depeche Mode, Tom Waits, Skinny Puppy, Exit Clov, and Johnny Hollow. Because I'm kind of stressed, if happy. Blah!

Movies:

2001: A Space Odyssey, Howl's Moving Castle, Soylent Green, 2001, Dr. Strangelove, The Sixth Sense, Indiana Jones, Princess Mononoke, Star Wars, Serenity, Rent, I'm Your Man (Leonard Cohen biography), The Triplets Of Belleville, Wallace and Gromit, Stage Fright (all eleven minutes of it), Young Frankenstein, Dark Crystal, Zoolander, etcetera. Everything by Ingmar Bergman EVER. I don't watch enough movies, but that's going to change!

Television:

Veronica Mars. Also - Bones, Stargate, Battlestar Galactica, Firefly, Buffy The Vampire Slayer, Angel, House, Lost, Desperate Housewives, etcetera. I tend to like science fiction best, come to think of it.

Books:

George R. R. Martin, Terry Pratchett, Neil Gaiman, Jasper Fforde, Stephen King, Virginia Woolf, O. Henry, Joyce Carol Oates, Ellen Kushner, Marian Babson, Charles de Lint, H. P. Lovecraft, Anton Chekhov, Dashiell Hammett, Raymond Chandler, Douglas Adams, Philip K Dick, Kafka, The World According To Garp, The Great Gatsby, John Steinbeck, Siddhartha, the Bible, the Qur’an, Lewis Carroll, C. S. Lewis (mostly the Perelandra triology), Oscar Wilde, Isaac Asimov, Ray Bradbury, Charles Addams, Edward Gorey, Richard Sala, Guy Gavriel Kay, Edgar Allen Poe, Fyodor Dostoevsky, the Communist Manifesto, Carol Berg, Diana Gabaldon, Lois McMaster Bujold, William Gibson, The Stand, Bruce Sterling, Stanislaw Lem, Harlan Ellison, William S. Burroughs, The Kite Runner, David Brin, Neal Stephenson, Marisha Pessl, Daphne du Maurier, Wilkie Collins, J.R.R. Tolkein, Arthur C. Clarke, Tove Jansson, Yevgeny Zamyatin (We), etcetera ad nauseum.
I tend to read a large variety of things, because I CAN. It took me about two and a half hours to finish Anna Karenina, which is a fantastic book. It's also apparently really long. Like... a thousand pages or something. So I really do have the time to read a lot. Too bad I don't read NEARLY enough amazing books... c'est la vie. Also I love Edith Wharton, and I should probably organize this section somewhat.

Heroes:

Snufkin, The Joxter, Thingumy and Bob, and Calcifer. (Really I just think they're adorable. Though actually, Snufkin is quite a good role model. Hmm.)
Also the people I intern with and my family for being seriously amazing.
And finally, everyone who works at BioWare. I may have to move to Canada so that I can work for BioWare, just so that I can say that I work for BioWare. Yeahh.

Life is vaguely dreadful.

I suppose it would help if I were able to work whenever I needed to, though. As it is, I have to wait until I'm in the right frame of mind. I produce (apparently) brilliant work when I'm enjoying myse...
