Today is a momentous occasion! It's the day I joined HoP AND the day I made my own fire chains and lit up for the first time! ::happydance::
Anyway, here's me:
Name:
Kate
Location:
Central Michigan- if you're nearby, please get in touch! I'm lonely without my spinners!
Hometown:
Jacksonville, Florida. But I'll be in Michigan for a while for college (university to the rest of you)
Birthday (sign?):
june 13: gemini
Age:
20
Sex:
female
Occupation(s):
student
Favorite Food(s):
mac and cheese, (any kind of pasta!) pizza, steak, chicken sandwiches
Favorite Color(s):
blue, black, green.... the list goes on.
What is the wing speed of an unladen swallow?
Are you suggesting that coconuts migrate? O_o
Toys:
Homemade OGGpoi (my workhorses and my trusty babies)
Homemade fire chains (need better wicks, otherwise they seem great)
Shoelaces + whatever blinky or glowy things are lying around
Hobbies other than the obvious:
Making custom poi/rave gear (pants, hair stuff, poi, etc), horseback riding, drawing, painting, writing stories, playing WoW and EVE Online.
Education:
I went to Alma College for a year and a half, took a year off for an engagement that ultimately failed, and I'm just now returning to Alma to finish that schooling business. I'm going pre-vet to be a large animal veterinarian.
Favorite Book(s):
The Picture of Dorian Gray
Favorite Movie(s):
(in no particular order:)
Iron Man, Sweeney Todd, Fight Club, A Scanner Darkly, DOGMA, Boondock Saints, Labyrinth, Mirrormask, Donnie Darko, Dune, Children of Dune, Serenity. I liked Tropic Thunder but almost entirely because of Robert Downey Jr's gorgeousness.
Godzilla vs. a Star Wars Star Destroyer. Who wins? Why?
Destroyer due to sheer firepower.
Favorite TV show(s):
Monster Quest (but the chupacabra episode scares the pee out of me), Numb3rs, similar stuff. Also Mythbusters, Monk, House, Firefly, Scrubs.
Plans for life in general: (i.e. what you want to do when you grow up)
Going to be a large animal vet, and I want to live on a sailboat.
Favorite Music Artists/Composers:
there are so many, I'm just going to list the first few that come to mind:
Queen, Led Zeppelin, Juno Reactor, the Prodigy, Chemical Brothers, Infected Mushroom, Daft Punk, Kevin Max, movie soundtracks
Do you think these pants make my butt look too big?
As long as you like them, they look wonderful. That's all that matters.
Favorite ice cream flavor(s):
Anything with chocolate, caramel, cookie dough, or strawberries. not all together though.
Marmite, Vegemite, or Nutella?*
Nutella!

Welcome to HOP. Good choice on the Nutella, and the music, and the movies. Oooh and the tv shows!

Let my words, dear friends, be treasures. Weightless golden butterflies that hang before your eyes for seconds, then are gone. But the dust of truth and beauty that their wingbeats leave behind will settle on your soul and make you happy. - Edward Monkton

Welcome to the forums, don't be scared to ask questions. I like answering them, myself.
I've read The Picture of Dorian Gray, myself. Quite enjoyed it.
