a token of love

Get to know your Tumblr-er

What is your middle name? Catherine

What are you passionate about?  comics, illustration, fiber art (involving yarn mostly), magical girls, new age spirituality and spiritual practices, nature, space, fashion.

Zebra or leopard print? No. <— same

Do you have any fears? failing big time (little failures are fine—I mean like flunking out of school or losing all my money), anger whether it’s justified or not, never succeeding in any of my really big goals.

Silver or gold? gold.

Top three places to visit. hmmm… places I want to visit: anywhere in Japan but preferably Tokyo. Portland. New Zealand.

Where are you from? Colorado, basically. wasn’t born here but lived here long enough.

First career you wanted as a child:  pretty sure it was ballerina.

What’s your sign?  Gemini/Rabbit

Future names of your children:  I have no intention of having any. shall I substitute pet rabbit instead? in that case I really like super girly names like Cupcake or Princess but I’d like to be a little more creative than that… hm.

What are you listening to right now? “Magic” by i-dep (I didn’t want to be boring so I put something on just for this. I was planning on listening to This American Life while I kept drawing but I haven’t decided on an episode yet)

Do you believe in fate/destiny? sorta.

What are your career goals? draw comix, earn dollaz, get ladiez

What is your favorite color? pink!

What is your favorite flower?  hydrangeas and irises. also can I just throw “all flowering trees” in here, does that count

What was the first concert/show you attended? Barenaked Ladies at the Pepsi Center in Denvah on December 20th, 2001!!!

Something you are working on right now:  Myself. <—- yes that. but something more specific: a piece of Todd Allison and the Petunia Violet fanart that I want to get done to congratulate Nozmo on 10 chapters ehehe… it’s the most detailed thing I’ve done in a long time.

Have you ever had a near-death experience?
um… nope! nothing easily recognizable as such, at least.

Are you a procrastinator or do you get things done early? would I even be filling out this meme if I wasn’t a procrastinator…?

Left or right handed?  right.

TV Shows and anime you watch regularly. the only show I really do watch every week is Precure. with only a few exceptions I’ve watched each new episode every week for five straight years now. I watch My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic semi-regularly. that’s it right now, though I’m kinda getting antsy about continuing Natsume Yuujinchou. (IS HOMESTUCK AN ANIME)

Halloween costume idea for this year?  I told myself shortly after last year that I was still really into the witch idea but now I’m not so sure. then again I also have NO idea what else it could be! I’m not sure if I’ll even be in the country next Halloween.

What is your relationship status? single and lovin’ it B)

Last movie you watched? THE SUITE PRECURE MOVIE!! I watched it just this morning (and I was THIS CLOSE to saying “durr I don’t remember”)

Your best friend’s name.  Jennifer and Kyle

A song that’s been stuck in your head. SOME SONG THAT I DON’T KNOW THE NAME OF. it’s a dance song with a great beat that plays on the overhead radio at work and I SWEAR the singer sounds like Sade but I can’t find any songs by her containing the lyrics I remember, UUURGH

A book you want to read/have recently read. I read a lot of books on productivity (cue the “how’s that working out for you” responses). let’s see, the one sitting on my TV that’s overdue is “Making Ideas Happen” by Scott Belsky. if audiobooks count then I’m listening to “The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People” by Stephen Covey, which I read about half of but listening is great cause I can do it while knitting or drawing.

rainbowsparklekittens: Tag, you're it! Here are the rules: Each tagged person must post ten things about themselves. You have to go and choose ten people. Go to their blogs and tell them you tagged them.

oh my goodness! okay well let’s see here…

1. I love hamsters and I have raised exactly six thus far. Their names were (in order): Dolly, Doc, Caramel, Stewart (who only survived in my care for about a week, what the hell), Buddha, and Violet.

2. I currently own three laptops because I just got a new one as an early graduation gift, and I have yet to do anything with the last one OR the one I used before that. Eventually they’ll be dismantled and the pieces will be recycled or sold.

3. I reeeeally really love green bean casserole. I’m reluctant to call it my favorite food, but it’s certainly right up there.

4. My favorite movie is Inglourious Basterds. I didn’t know what it was until my friends asked me if I wanted to see it while it was in theaters. I was reluctant to go but oh my gosh I am so glad I did. I can’t even begin to tell you how I felt while the credits were rolling. If I’m remembering correctly, it’s the only movie I’ve gone to see more than once at the theater.

5. I really enjoy a lot of NPR programming and I love to listen to it while I’m drawing. I especially like This American Life and Wait Wait Don’t Tell Me.

6. I’ve worked in a frame shop for about 6 years. Actually it’s a retail outlet that sells ready made picture frames and art supplies and some other things, but we do frame pictures for people, including fully custom jobs. So if you ever need any advice on picture framing… I might be able to help you.

7. My feelings on BL are complicated. I love the general idea of anime/manga solely dedicated to dudes who love each other. But I just can’t get into it with the way it’s usually handled. I don’t really feel there’s any love between the characters 99% of the time, and that’s what I’m looking for, so… I felt more love between, say, Kotetsu and Barnaby in Tiger and Bunny than I did in almost all of the actual BL anime/manga I’ve seen or read. That being said, the one and only BL anime or manga I can say that I really, really love is the manga FAKE. It ain’t perfect, but I can at least feel the love between the main pair. Also one of the few manga I actually own.

8. I enjoy fortune telling, but my medium of choice is slightly unusual: Clow Cards. Yes, as in the cards from Cardcaptor Sakura. I have honestly never seen the entire show or even read the manga, but I saw enough when it was on TV here in the U.S. to know that I wanted some toys. So, among other things that I no longer have, I got a book of Clow Cards. And several years later, I somehow discovered that CLAMP themselves had made a book about how to tell fortunes using them, that someone had also been kind enough to translate. I don’t do it very often so I haven’t exactly memorized it or become an expert yet.

9. I learned how to knit earlier this year. Haven’t done much with it yet but one of my current projects is a huge blanket that’s going to hang in the school gallery for my senior show next semester aaahhh…

10. I’m the youngest child in my family and also the only girl. But I only have two brothers.

Now I have to TAG people? Gosh… well okay, I’ll see who I can find.

IF ANYONE GETS THIS FROM ME AND ALREADY GOT IT YOU CAN JUST IGNORE/DELETE IT :I

edit: haha nevermind I’m not gonna tag people, SORRY TO BE A PARTY POOPER but I actually really hate tagging!

❤ male:
❤ female:
✖ least favorite:
✔ who resembles me:
❤ most attractive:
❤ three more characters that i like:

of course if you’re asking about Precure you can ask about individual seasons. actually I’d prefer that to asking about the entire franchise.
