Name: Raini
Location: Beach town, MI
Hometown: Fruitport
Birthday (sign?): 2-20-1981, pisces
Age: bet with a calculator and my last answer you can figure that one out
Sex: female
Occupation(s): Restaurant Manager, day dreamer
Favorite Food(s): pasta, sushi, seafood, vegetarian
Favorite Color(s): green in all its many shades, chocolate brown, crimson, black
What is the wing speed of an unladen swallow? i guess that would depend on how big it is
Toys: sock poi
Hobbies other than the obvious: i am a very creative/ crafty person so i like to explore many different avenues
Education: some college. the bulk of my courses are in the liberal arts field
Favorite Book(s): psychological thrillers....anything that takes your mind and concepts of reality for a thoroughly warped ride.
Favorite Movie(s): in no particular order-Corpse Bride, The Nightmare Before Christmas, What Dreams May Come, As Good As It Gets, Labrynth, The Dark Crystal, The Lord of The Rings Trilogy, 10 Things I Hate About You (and other shakespear remakes), Underworld, Before Sunrise, After Sunset, A Very Long Engagment, The Red Violen, Kiss the Girls, Mr. Holland's Opus, Amile, Memento, The Invisible, The 13th Warrior. there are more but those are the first to come to mind...
Godzilla vs. a Star Wars Star Destroyer. Who wins? Why? ok here is where i make the vast majority of the community hate me....i don't really care. godzilla was big and pissed off with a lot of strength but a star wars destroyer is less vulnerable and full of people who seem to know how to blow things up.
Favorite TV show(s): house, heros, simpsons, whale wars, and myth busters.
Plans for life in general: (i.e. what you want to do when you grow up) i want to travel, experience different foods and cultures, learn new talents/skills, and have fun.
Favorite Music Artists/Composers: i have a very eclectic taste when it comes to music so it is hard to narrow down to just a few. lately i have been on a blues kick....muddy waters is one of my favorites.
Do you think these pants make my butt look too big? no but that shirt has really got to go.
Favorie ice cream flavor(s): coffee, pumpkin pie, blue moon, and raspberry crunch
Marmite, Vegemite, or Nutella? creamy peanut butter.....i would pick nutella but i was screwed in the middle of my childhood developing an allergy to cocoa which is an ingredient in nutella.

Have Marmite instead. It is better anyway.
Corpse Bride! If I want to watch Nightmare Before Christmas I have to do it alone. My SO refuses to watch it....

my brother loves nutella....though when he was little he would put cereal in my peanut butter jar (in going to make a sandwich it was pretty common to end up with peanut butter, jelly, and captain crunch).
the last waltz just got added to my netflix list, thank you so much for pointing me in that direction!!
Corpse Bride is fabulous but here is a fun one to ponder for you Aston; what if Tim Burton did a version of Alice in Wonderland? now THAT would be fabulous.
thanks for all the welcomes
