Music is my life.

Stole the following from Jane, but it didn't work out so well at first, because I have a lot of instrumental music. So I skipped any songs that have no words, and got the list below.

~*~

1. Put your iTunes, Windows Media Player, iPod, etc. on shuffle.
2. For each question, press the next button to get your answer.
3. You must write that song name down no matter how silly it sounds.

My alter ego is: "El Tango de Roxanne" (from the Moulin Rouge soundtrack, a cover of a song originally by The Police)

When I知 in the shower I sing: "Chained to You" (from Savage Garden's album "Affirmation")

My day will be like: "Sally MacLennane" (from "Whiskey in the Jar: Essential Irish Drinking Songs and Sing-Alongs" - this one made me laugh pretty hard)

When I知 drunk (even though I don't drink) I say: "Losing My Religion" (from R.E.M.'s "Out of Time")

Somewhere in my wedding vows I will include: "Someday" (from Nickelback's "The Long Road" - an interesting answer)

My makeout song is: "Taking Over Me" (from Evanescence's "Fallen")

My deepest secret is: "Logic" (from the Sisters of Mercy's "First and Last and Always")

Next time I知 in front of a crowd I値l say: "Wake Up, Open the Door, and Escape to the Sea" (from Blaqk Audio's "Cex Cells")

High school was like: "The Show Must Go On" (from Queen's "Classic Queen" - ironic)

At my funeral they will play: "Elvenpath" (from Nightwish's "Highest Hopes: The Best of Nightwish")

If I reached the top of Mount Everest I would scream: "Throwing Stones" (from Paula Cole's "This Fire")

My ultimate song for dancing is: "Cease2Xist" (from Ladytron's "Light & Magic")

What makes me happy is: "'t Smidje" (from Lais' self-titled album...they're Flemish, unless I'm very much mistaken, so I have no idea what the song's lyrics mean, but the tune does actually make me happy - it's just so lighthearted.)

To cheer myself up I: "Yo Ho, Yo Ho, A Pirate's Life for Me" (an actual audio recording from the Disneyland ride "Pirates of the Caribbean" - my dad worked for Disney for 13 years, that's how I have it)

The best thing about me is: "You Own Me Nothing In Return" (from Alanis Morissette's "Under Rug Swept")

I値l have a good day if I can just hear: "Faint" (from Linkin Park's "Meteora")

My last words will be: "Defying Gravity" (from the musical "Wicked")

My best friend is like: "Relax" (from Mana`'s "Amar Es Combatir")

What I did last night was: "So Long Astoria" (from The Ataris' "So Long Astoria")

My theme song is: "La Vie Boheme" (from the Original Broadway Cast Recording of the musical "RENT" - amusingly enough, it actually is the theme song not just for me, but for my entire group of friends too)

The story of my life is: "Paradise" (from Vanessa Carlton's "Be Not Nobody")

At my wedding they will play: "My Confession" (from Josh Groban's "Closer" - a bit too saccharine for my tastes, but it would be cute at a wedding)

My favourite thing to do is: "Building a Mystery" (from Sarah McLachlan's "Surfacing")

Happiness is: "Hate This Place" (from the Goo Goo Dolls' "Dizzy Up the Girl")

I often think about: "Hands" (from Jewel's "Spirit")

My best friend always says: "Stirb Nicht Vor Mir (Don't Die Before I Do)" (from Rammstein's "Rosenrot")

This is what I want to be when I grow up: "The Hand of Sorrow" (from Within Temptation's "The Heart of Everything")

My biggest fear is: "Can't Repeat" (from The Offspring's "Greatest Hits")

This is how I feel today: "Double Trouble" (from the "Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban" Soundtrack; it's the witches' concoction from Macbeth put to a charming little tune that gets stuck in your head too easily)

~*~

I love how I have enough music that no artists/albums repeated. And I still have a bunch of CDs and artists that weren't included.

Music is my life. I'd die without it.

I'll have to find a long one of these survey things to fill out some other time.

There was something I wanted to say, but I don't remember what it was.

Loves.

PS - my school accepted my application to study abroad. Now I just need to keep my fingers crossed that the College of Queen Mary in the University of London consortium accepts my application. :) Back | Older | Current | Next

About Me

I'm just an average 19 year-old girl from California, trying to figure out my place in the world. Madness and mayhem prevail in my existence as I navigate university life and try to figure out just what I want from myself. It's an interesting adventure. Want to know anything about me, just ask.

The Devil's Rose

Because I'm always curious where people get their screennames from, here's why mine's 'devils-rose': one of my favorite songs is called "Rose in the Devil's Garden" by Tiger Army. That's the main reason, that and my life can be quite hellish. So it just kind of worked for me.

The Least You Need to Know

I am: crazy; nineteen; female; random; deeply loyal to my friends; always looking to make more friends; something of a warrior, when the situation calls for it; good in emergencies; until they're over; temperamental; creative, artistic, and social; escaping an emotionally abusive childhood; determined to move to Europe; in a major university; studying Linguistics, Japanese, German, and Spanish; and...I don't know, lots of things. :D

Likes/Dislikes

I like: music, concerts, road trips, food, friendship, laughter, frolicking, walking in nature, writing novels and short stories, reading fiction - mostly fantasy, dancing in the rain, late nights, sleeping in, thunderstorms, ogling cute boys, playing at being a pirate, outrunning time, feeling infinite.
~*~
I dislike: homework, waking up early, hot weather, people with no sense of humor, boredom, depression, being at home with my family.
