Favorite Quote: "No matter where you go, there you are."
Favorite Food: Pizza
Favorite Kind of Music: I love all music from classical to rock, just no gangsta rap for mei.
Favorite Movie: This is a very hard question as I love movies so much. But to bring it down to just one would have to be Spiderman 2 (I cried when Mary Jane came to Peter and confessed her love and he finally accepted her). Nope can't do just one. Also The Great Gatsby as it reflects the pain love for someone can bring.
Favorite Game: City of Heroes
Favorite Book: Sword Dancer, as it tells a story of a young gal that, despite her traumatic childhood, grows up to be a strong hero and equal in skill and power to the man she falls in love with. Yay!!
Favorite Forum thread at EggXpert, this very moment: The Anime thread under Off Topic
Favorite EggXpert member (other than yourself) and why: Venture, because he reminds us all to not take this forum or life too seriously or you can get hurt for no good reason at all.
Favorite Website: http://www.yahoo.com/ This is Mei's portal to the world!!!
Favorite hero: Black Cat, as she was a bad girl that became a hero because one man took time out to show her some love and compassion
Most Embarrassing Moment: I was on a school trip with the HS orchestra and we stayed overnight at a hotel with a pool. I had not brought a swim suit but a gal I was rooming with had an extra pair of shorts she let me borrow. So I put that on with a t-shirt and went swimming. Some of the guys talked me into a race and when I kicked off the side of the pool the shorts went right to my feet. O_O Luckily for me, the t-shirt was long and covered most everything, I hope. But I lost the race stopping to pull up my shorts.
Most frightened of: Spiders, if they get too close, my brain will actually turn off from fear and I am paralyzed. :(
Happiest Moment: The day I got married to my huggy pie!! ^_^ Love you hun.
A Vivid Childhood Memory: There was a spider with a very large tummy sitting on a flower just behind the house. I knew this spider was about to lay her eggs and I did not want hundreds of baby spiders in the house, so I picked up a small stick, a twig really, to hit the spider. But I was afraid I would miss so I slowly did a couple practice swings and the 2nd one just barely touched the spider's back and it exploded. It had waited too long to lay its eggs and the spider burst its guts and eggs all over the back of the house and me. It was on my face, in my mouth and eyes and all over my new top. I could not move or breathe for a long time as my head spun and spun. I do not remember anything after, like how I got cleaned up. I just remember the screaming. I was deathly afraid of spiders before that happened and since then I often just lock up if they get too close to me.
Your “good deed” of the century: I took in a stray cat that had been abused and tortured. She was my guardian angel, SusieQ.
Guilty Pleasure(s): I like grade B sci-fi movies and romance manga.
If you had 1 wish, what would it be and why?: That every one I know would know how much they are truly treasured and loved by God.
When refilling your toilet paper, do you prefer it over or under?: Oh this is not a question, has to be over!!!
