This one from baranoneko
01. How has LJ changed your life?
Honestly, the biggest thing it's done has been make me an even bigger internet addict than I was before LJ, and that's not good. Other than that, met a few new people, umm... Yeah.

02. What do you do before bedtime?
Not much. Bedtime usually consists of "Ugh, I'm exhausted, let's turn off the light and crawl into bed with my clothes on." Although sometimes I take off my clothes.

03. What are you going to have for dinner tonight?
Well, I already had dinner - a few onigiri as I was making them, as well as the leftover rice, some steamed pork and leek buns, and a carrot. And tea.

04. What is the ONE place you want to go before you die if you had the money and the time?
As Kat put it, "I want to make it back to Japan." Although I suppose obligation says that if it were really one place, it would have to be Germany, to see my family again.

05. What is the best thing you have ever won?
Hmm... Well, I did win an Anime-Pulse subscriber drawing that included the regular edition of the FMA movie, but I already owned the special edition, so I gave it away to my friend.

06. What do you do in your free time?
Honestly, nothing of any value. Putz on the computer and watch TV.

07. If you could speak another language (meaning one you currently don't know), what would it be?
Hmmm... Somali might be useful. Honestly, that's a toughie, and although I love learning languages, I've finally settled into the idea that mastering Japanese and German is more than enough to dedicate myself to for now, or else I'll never get anywhere with those two.

08. What personal belonging do you have with you everywhere you go?
My iPod and wallet, and often my planner. Above things are usually in my messenger bag.

09. What was your favorite song or musical group when you were young?
Sou ne... It's been BnL for a long time (although not so much with their last two releases, Barenaked Ladies are Me/Men), but before that I have no clue. Maybe Paul Simon?

10. Are you a risk taker?
Honestly, not at all.

11. Is being tagged fun?
Very much so, although memes/quizzes that state "You MUST tag X people and each of the people tagged MUST respond" are complete BS.

12. Where do you see yourself in ten years?
Don't depress me like that.

13. What is the last thing you read?
Henry IV, Part One. Finished it today. ><; Still working on all the essays and shit at the end.

14. What kind of person do you think the person who tagged you is?
Hmm... Very strong, and hard-working. I don't know her that well, but I do know I'd like to be more like her.

15. What is one song you are really, really into right now?
There's usually some song, but it's hard to think if I really have one right now. It was Separation (by angela) for a long time, but I guess the closest right now would be "rise" from GitS:SAC 2nd GIG. (Somehow the animation for that OP reminds me a lot of the Lain OP.)

16. How many children do you want to have, if any?
None out of my own body, but I'm thinking 1-3 adopted.

17. What's better: to give or to receive?
I'm going to reveal my true materialistic self and say "to receive", although I definitely enjoy giving too.

18. If you fall in love with two people simultaneously, who would you pick?
I'm not quite sure what this is saying? I suppose one who loves me back and the another who I have no chance with, so I can be truly happy with one of them.

19. Would you have 100% safe sex with a stranger for £10,000,000?
Honestly, that's really tempting until you realize "wait, isn't that being a prostitute?". And then somehow I suddenly feel like I have to say no. Either way, though, I don't think I ever would, socially acceptable or not.

20. What were your parents going to name you if you'd been born the opposite gender?
Never asked.

And since either you all suck or the music I listen to is really that weird (or the shuffle happened to give me a really esoteric selection, or I picked particularly tricky lyrics)
1. Jinn - MARAKAITO
2. Sailor Moon - Moon Revenge
3. Paul Simon - Gumboots
4. Barenaked Ladies - Call Me Calmly
5. The Tribe - I Can't Stop (Honestly, I can't blame any of you for not getting this one, as I think only zuisa's the only one who saw the show, and I don't know if she has the soundtrack.)
6. Nodame Cantabile/Crystal Kay - Konna ni Chikaku de... *stares at lugia222 pointedly*
7. Nena - Nur Geträumt
8. Full Metal Alchemist - Good!
9. The Who - Pinball Wizard

19. Uncle Kracker - Drift Away

21. Gunslinger Girl - Doll
22. Barenaked Ladies - One and Only
23. Sailor Moon - Here we go!-Shinjiru CHIKARA-
24. Dave Matthews Band - Stay
25. Kim Possible - Say The Word
26. Hikaru no Go/dream - Get Over
27. RIZE - Dream Catcher
28. Dave Matthews Band - Rapunzel
29. Puffy - Nagisa ni Matsuwaru Et Cetera
30. Samurai 7/Aikawa Nanase - UNLIMITED
Maybe I'll try that meme again next week and only put songs that have a chance of being guessed.

Yeah, the way you romanize, there's no way I ever would have gotten that.

[tsukikage85.livejournal.com]

*gives you a strange look* How would you romanize that line?
Apart from people's romanization preferences, next time I do this I might include the kanji lyrics too...

[lugia222.livejournal.com]

For one, I would make "kamoshirenai" one word because I think it's easier to read as a set ending that way.
