A Wee Interview

Over on Wee's site yesterday (after seeing it a few other places) I ran across a rolling, evolving and FUN Internet interview game. :-) So, being of not sound mind or body, I signed right up for it. Here are the rules and below them you will get to read the interview itself! :-)
The Official Interview Game Rules
1. If you want to participate, leave a comment saying "interview me."
2. I will respond by asking you five questions - each person's will be different.
3. You will update your journal/blog with the answers to the questions.
4. You will include this explanation and an offer to interview others in the same post.
5. When others comment asking to be interviewed, you will ask them five questions.


1) Do you believe in Ghosts? Have you ever seen one? Would you want to?
Actually, yes, I do believe in ghosts. When I was little, I used to see "things" all the time; and my father was shocked at me describing his mother to him; although she had died when HE was 16; so I'd never seen her, and due to his estrangement with his family for my childhood, I didn't know that side of the family nor did he have any pictures of her I could have subconsciously picked up on. I haven't seen anything in particular since I crossed that teen threshold; but the memory of those visions still reminds me that, as Shakespeare said, ""There are more things in heaven and earth, Horatio, Than are dreamt of in your philosophy."


2) What is your middle name and do you like it? If you could change your name and have any name you wished, what would you change it to?
My middle name is Patricia. You know, I don't know if it's ever occurred to me to like it, or not to like it. It's a nice enough name, with some pleasant connotations for people I've known who had that as a first name. Now, if I got to change it, anymore I might be inclined to change it to one of my Internet handles; and what kind of middle name is that? *g* So, I will be content with Patricia; as long as there are no sudden flashbacks of parents yelling your first, middle, and last names to let you know just how much trouble you were in. :-)


3) What one movie always, always makes you cry and which part in particular?
Oh gosh. A movie that makes me cry? Quite a few of them do, especially ones I got totally hooked on as a teen (when I finally got to start WATCHING movies of my own choice.) I guess the one that is both one of the oldest attachments (in that it's a favourite of mine) as well as one of the most embarrassing would be suitable here. The Disney version of Beauty and the Beast. That's the movie. And the scene that makes me cry is the one where Belle realizes she may never see her father again; and asks the Beast to let her go, and gives up his hope of salvation from Beast form, gives her a gift to let her see what she needs to and sets her free. I know, sad; but for some reason that scene really struck me when I first saw that movie; and I guess I'm conditioned now. :-)


4) If you could have one thing named after you (a child, a street or a building or whatever) what would it be and why?
One thing named after me? Hmmm.... that's a hard one. I want something named after me to be something I cared about; and something that would give back. I think I'd like a library/coffee shop named after me. Somewhere that you can go, get a good coffee or snack and immerse yourself in a good book, or work on something you brought with you, like art or a thesis or something.


5) What do you think is your best physical feature and why? And don't say you don't have one or something like that, 'cuz that's just not allowed. :^D
*g* Now, of course this strikes right to the heart of vanity. What do I think my best physical feature is? I guess either my hair or my eyes. Hair because it's such an unusual shade of silver blonde (and yes, it IS natural); eyes because I've always thought the fact that mine change colour is just cool. So, now that we've proven I'm a vain creature, the interview of ME is officially over. Anyone else want to step up? Comment or drop me a line. :-)
