Scraps in my Workbasket Blog Party

I saw this quiz and decided to do it as part of my getting back into blogging. I don't mean for my blog to become just a bunch of quizzes and giveaways, but I figure it's a good way to get back into things. =)

{1} when you think of "old movies",  what immediately comes to mind? 

Jimmy Stewart. =D And a lot of movies - my favorite probably being It's a Wonderful Life.

{2} who is one of your favorite film or literary heroes (or heroines) and why?

Heroes... Colonel Brandon. Because he's gentle and kind and a man of action, not just a man of talk and intentions.

Heroines... Wow, I have a lot of favorites. I guess I'll just say Jo March for now. I love how honest she is and the fact that she's not afraid to be herself.

{3} if you could live in a movie, which one would it be and why?

Boy oh boy is this one tough! I guess Emma. I like the dresses and the characters. The dances and the estates. In the end, I'd prolly wanna come out of the movie and live my own life, though. =)

{4} music has changed a lot since 1900 - which "modern" type of music is your favorite?

Not really sure about this one...

{5} any songs you'd like to share with us? (lyrics, video, etc.)

 I could share the Duck Song because it makes me laugh... But I guess I'll share the song I have in my head right now instead:

{6} if your life had soundtrack, what would it sound like?

Depends what I'm doing! Adventurous sometimes, calm at other times. A mix of Dear Frankie and Pirates of the Caribbean, I guess. hahaha

{7} when do you start counting down till your birthday?

I guess I just count down each month from August until my birthday. I don't think about it a lot or anything... just on the 14th of each month. =D

{8} what makes your birthday special?

It's Valentines Day. =D And I have simply incredible friends and family!

{9} do you ever wish you were born in a different month?

Meh... Not really

and finally...

{10} pick and post five words to describe your personality - you can add a description under each if you like.

Reliable - Maybe not 100% of the time, but most of the time. If I make a commitment to someone, I do my best to fulfill it.


Imaginative - This is probably one of my best qualities, even though it's my worst character trait. It helps me relate to other people, but I also tend to get lost in my own little world.

Changeable - I like to blend in. Sometimes I am consciously making decisions to act in a manner that will (in my mind) make myself more agreeable to those around me... other times I realize that I'm acting/talking like other people without thinking about it.

Observant - Another good/bad thing. Sometimes I notice stuff that is useful (where someone leaves their iPod, where a store is off of the highway) and other times I notice stuff that I shouldn't. =P

Confusing - I guess I don't really even need to go into detail here. Just look at the first and third words that I used to describe myself! =P
