IN 2008 I...
045. [x] kissed someone
046. [x] celebrated Halloween
047. [ ] had your heart broken
048. [x] went over the minutes on your cell phone
049. [x] questioned someone's sexual orientation
050. [ ] came out of the closet
051. [ ] gotten pregnant/got someone pregnant
052. [ ] had an abortion
053. [x] done something you've regretted
054. [x] broke a promise
055. [x] hid a secret
056. [ ] pretended to be happy
057. [ ] met someone who changed your life
058. [ ] pretended to be sick
059. [ ] left the country
060. [x] tried something you normally wouldn't try and liked it
061. [x] cried over the silliest thing
062. [ ] ran a mile
063. [x] went to the beach with your best friend(s)
064. [ ] got into an argument with your friend(s)
065. [x] hated someone
066. [ ] stayed single the whole year

(yeah, 2008 was NOT a good year for me :S too many deaths divorces and secrets)

CURRENTLY:
067. Eating → nothing, im so hungry but im having BBQ for tea
068. Drinking → water
069. I'm about to → eat tea
070. Listening to → Lover of Mine by Alannah Myles
071. Plans for today → black and white. Bout it.
072. Waiting for → tea to be ready

YOUR FUTURE:
073. Want kids? → one would be fine partly cuz I think it’s one of these life experiences you just should have, and partly to start a family with Blair
074. Want to get married? → yessum ^_^ Within the next few years I hope
075. Careers in mind → ideally, a mixed media artist/editor and an author. But realistically, just any job that pays good and i don’t hate. I’m kinda hoping one of my friends will be successful and I can be their secretary or something.

WHICH IS BETTER WITH GIRL/BOY?
076. Lips or eyes → I want to say eyes, cuz I could fall for eyes alone but I think I could get used to boring eyes easier than thin lips.
077. Shorter or taller? → taller, but not my much, I don’t like having to strain my neck to look at them
078. Romantic or spontaneous → I’d prefer romantic, but I’ve found that spontaneity can be pretty romantic in itself
079. Nice stomach or nice arms → Arms. You see them more. Nice stomach is nice (omg I’m a lol-Jayne), but means very little to me.
080. Sensitive or loud → Sensitive. I would destroy a loud person. I have sensitive ears that being said they don’t seem to work very well so a really quiet person would annoy me more.
081. Hook-up or relationship → a relationship, hell even if you stayed mates after the hook-up, it would be pretty meaningless to just meet someone, shag them, and never see them again
082. Trouble-maker or hesitant → hesitant. Trouble-maker is cute and all but cautious ftw, lol (plus that way I could feel like the fun one XD)

HAVE YOU EVER:
083. Lost glasses/contacts → yeah. Me and my friend Nikita walked all over the nicer part of Whitfield looking for them. We did find them eventually though
084. Ran away from home → Nope
085. Held a gun/knife for self defence →well, imagined self defence, as in the house makes creepy noises and I keep sharp things handy just incase.
086. Killed somebody → hah. No. but I have a place to burry them and people to help with the body it’s good to plan ahead (mwuhahaha). I’m creepy, I know.
087. Broken someone's heart →I hope not
089. Cried when someone died → yes, lots, even characters on the telly.

DO YOU BELIEVE IN:
090. Yourself → I’d like to think so, but I’ll go with no. I’m always surprised when people take an interest in what I say or do. My friends all insist I’m worth talking to though so I’ll just take their words for it
091. Miracles → not really. What’s meant to happen happens. If there is a higher power maybe it interferes sometimes, but it just gets woven into life so it can’t be a ‘miracle’ per se
092. Love at first sight → no. I mean an instant crush sure, but love takes time. It’d be nice if there was love at first sight but I think it’s just infatuation that becomes love later
093. Heaven → no. an afterlife of sorts sure, but not specifically ‘heaven’. I believe in reincarnation first and foremost
094. Santa Claus → no I devised a plan once to wake up every hour and check for him, but it was ruined by sharing a room with gran (she stays with us on x-mas eve). Eventually I put two and two together when dad always slept in on x-mas day
095. Sex on the first date → well I guess, if you trust them not to ditch you afterwards sex seems a little more selfish and impersonal to me than other stuff. Doing it with someone right away means you’re more likely to be thinking about what you want from it and less about how the other person is enjoying it.
096. Kiss on the first date → of course, a kiss is part of seeing how compatible you are; you can go right off someone with a kiss, or like them all the more.

ANSWER TRUTHFULLY:
097. Is there one person you want to be with right now? → yes I miss my Blair
098. Are you seriously happy with where you are in life? → I may not be totally happy with myself, but as far as life goes, I’m on a course that I love and have loads of good friends who love me, as well as the man I’m going to marry, so I don’t think there’s much else I could want
099. Do you believe in God? → nope. Maybe some divine energy, but I think of it as more of a collection of individuals than one entity.
100. Post as 100 truths and tag 10 people:
You know what, I think I’ve annoyed people enough with this massive journal entry, so I’ll pass

20 QUESTIONS WITH FIGUEL

1. Choose one OC per quiz.
2. Answer honestly
3. Title your journal Twenty Questions with (name of your OC)
4. Have fun!

01. Hello! What is your real name and nickname?
Hello to you! My name is Figuel, and my nickname is Fi. Figuel –if you’re interested in my native language- come from the Rathe words ‘Fitna-i’ meaning the upper half of the face, usually the eyes, and ‘Aguel’ meaning angel or spirit. My name translates into ‘Ghost Eyes’ because mine are so pale in colour ^_^

02. And your current age?
I am 38. If I were human I’d be in my twenties.

03. What do you do for a living?
I tend bar at the Rave, a nightclub in the Rathe Realm which I part-own

04. What is your favourite food?
Ooh, tricky. I don’t believe I have one. I’ll eat anything really –really anything, I lived off worms once on a particularly long uneventful trek across the Scottish highlands-, and my favourite food is whatever I desire at the time.

05. And your favourite drink?
I’m partial to whiskey and beer, but I wont say no to a bottle of red. As for non-alcoholic drinks, I like anything fruity

06. 'Fess up! Who is your secret crush?
If I said Mimic would you judge me? Him and Tallir, but Tallir seems awfully sensitive about other men liking him so I keep it to myself (hence the ‘secret’ part ). My desire for the fairer sex is satisfied by my lovely girlfriend Karen

07. What is your favourite colour/s?
RED XD and black. You can’t go wrong with black. I have a soft spot for sky blue though ^_^

08. Who is your favourite author?
My favourite author? Hm. I never thought about it. My favourite poets is good ol’ Rabbie Burns. Even though I’m a Rathe I was born in Scotland and I fell in love with the culture. But anyways favourite author. I like the classics. I guess Hemmingway, or Stoker even, but to be honest I don’t read all that often.

09. What is your greatest fear?
Oooh, um… Well, I worry about getting temped away from Karen, or her thinking me liking men is weird and leaving me, which is a ridiculous thing to worry about because she’s bisexual too. But I’ve never been the strongest of creatures so maybe my greatest fear is actually being overpowered.

10. Any sibling rivalry?
Haha, no. I’m very close with my sisters, even though we’d had very little contact with each other until recently. I’m the only boy (that we know of… well, I have a half brother) so I guess there was no pressure for me to be manly in any way, which is good, because I’m not

11. Who is your hero?
Aw, I guess my lovely cousin Tristen ^_^ if it weren’t for him the Realm would have torn itself apart and I would have never gotten home. Plus I don’t care what issues he has with him, I freakin’ love his dad! I’m actually related to an actual Scottish wolf! I have a clan tartan! I’m so happy! XD ee!

12. OK, who is your worst enemy?
Hm, don’t have one. I’m a likable sort of bloke, if you don’t mind the flamboyance

13. What would you do if your hero and your worst enemy met?
Stand back ^_^’ heh

14. What would you do if you met your creator?
Give her a big squishy hug so far she’s been avoiding it

(the Creator is a character in Ravendale)

15. What would you like to be when you grow up?
Haha, can’t I just not grow up?

16. What is your worst nightmare?
Being strangled in the dark, and not being able to call for help. It’s rather frightening. I think I must somehow shuffle under my pillow in the night.

17. What is your dream?
I live my dream I’m in a fairly safe relationship, I live with my friends and family, I work where I can be sociable with people, s’all goood

18. What would you do if your dream became reality?
Smile, a lot, which I do <see?

19. OK, where do you go to put things into perspective?
I sit on top of high things, like roofs or cliffs or big hills, and watch the sun set.

20. Last question! How do you pass the time?
However I please, it’s brilliant XD


FILM IDEA

The idea
- I take a camera to Chris’s and film as though the camera were the viewer at a party
- I can’t speak
- I can’t be in shot, even my hands or feet
- Chris and the others would treat me as a stranger and introduce themselves
- I would edit together conversations I observe and others have ‘with’ me
- I would partake of activities with the camera
- No one can refer to me by name or ask me questions

The aim is to let the viewer experience Chris’s party as though they were there.
- They would meet their fellow guests and be met themselves.
- They would join in with the games and activities
- They would be spoken to through the lens as if they were really there meeting strangers

Requirements
- I’d need the guys to do some acting aka. Introduce themselves as if to a stranger
- I’d need everyone to be ok with the camera, as well as pretending it was a person
- If a scene goes badly I’d possibly need people to repeat things
- I’d need conversations from a few if not all of the guests, so I’d possibly need a portion of everyone’s time
- No one could say my name or ask me a question while I’m filming, they’d have to refer to me as ‘you’ in direct conversation with the camera

- I’d try not to film for too long, afterall we’ll be there for a couple days and the movie would be under 30minutes long ideally, so I’m hopeful it wouldn’t be too much inconvenience.

Rough plan
- I’d like to open with ‘me’ arriving, Chris would open the door and say “hello”, “glad you could make it”, or whatever, “I’m Chris”, “you can put your stuff there” and “let me show you through” etc.
- I’d follow him to the living room where most of you would be, and say something like “everyone say hi, this is [eg.] Blair” and Blair would acknowledge, maybe say hi or handshake or whatever he does, and it would continue “Manby” acknowledge “Adri” acknowledge and so on so you’re all introduced.
- If there are people wandering about I could ‘bump into them’ and then they would say hello.
- And so the night would continue, I’d film at important intervals like at a change of scenery or activity and maybe get in a couple conversations with the camera, and of course I’d have to be really careful during the water fight, heh.

Bottom line, I think Chris’s parties rock, I love you all, and I want to share this unique and wonderful experience with others, and maybe get a cheeky grade improvement while I’m at it, hah.
