September 2010
let-sleeping-bones-lie asked: Um, this isn't a question, but I thought that I'd let you know that I had no idea this was your tumblr. I scrolled right on down to read what you had on the page and I thought, "Wow, I like this person, they have similar interests as me." Then I saw 'Bri's Abridged History of Obsessions' and thought, "Bri..?" And scrolled back up to find your name...

day 10 - discuss your first love and first kiss.
Meh.

day 9 - how you hope your future will be like.
A flurry of color and sound and music and strange people doing strange things. Festivals and love and laughter and acceptance. Dancing and foreign food. Streamers and balloons and bells attached to twirly skirts and little girls’ anklets. Art and wine and conversation topics that everyone will enjoy. Being the only English-speaker in a crowd. Ethnic traditions I’ve no idea the meaning...

day 8 - a moment you felt the most satisfied with...
Every moment. If I don’t feel that way, then I don’t deserve to be living it.
Yes, sometimes I’m not HAPPY with my life. Sometimes I get sad. Sometimes I get lonely or insecure or mad or hurt or scared.
But I am always satisfied with what I’ve got.
I look for ways to make it better, to improve my lot, but I hope to never lose sight of the fact that I’ve got it...

day 7 - your zodiac sign and if you think it fits...
Zodiac. Chinese, sidereal, western?
I’ll do all of them.
Western Zodiac Sign: Virgo. The Virgin.
No and yes. I don’t really possess most of the fundamental characteristics highlighted in most Virgo astrology profiles. I’m not modest or shy, nor a perfectionist and conservative (in ANY sense of the word). I AM over-critical. But that has more to do with my upbringing than my...

I think the dark lord Cthulhu just rose.
Either that or it’s the frappe-maker.

kubi:
Good god. Pick the year you started remembering TV (for me it’s 1986) and turn on the switch for commercials. It’s probably the most nostalgic thing I’ve ever done.
Oh jeez. So much…

day 6 - write 30 interesting facts about yourself.
1. Interestingly, while it’s the subject in which I’m most thoroughly versed, I am never prepared for this part of the challenge.
2. I feel that an English accent would simply suit me better. You can imagine my crushing disappointment upon discovering I don’t have one.
3. I’m watching Doctor Who, The Ark In Space right now.
4. I’m a vegetarian.
5. I’m a...

day 5 - a time you thought about ending your own...
Whoa now, you don’t think I’d tell a blank form something like that, now do you?
Let’s just say, if I ever had any of those thoughts, they’re gone. And that I think that ending one’s own life is just about the most selfish thing someone could do to themselves. Done? Done.

day 4 - your views on religion.
Mm. I could talk about this for days and get nowhere.
It boils down to this:
You’re religious? Fine. I might judge you a little. But in general, it will not stop me from liking you as another human being. Just extend me the same courtesy.

day 3 - your views on drugs and alcohol.
I don’t do drugs or drink, but I really don’t care if you do.
I think marijuana should be legalized, as we should have the right to choose whether or not to smoke it. I would still choose not to, but I don’t want someone to make that choice for me.
I think it’s a bad decision, but one you have the right to make all on your own.

day 2 - where you’d like to be in 10 years.
10 years. I’ll be 28. Wow.
Another place. Somewhere so different from here that it’s terrifying. I want to stay up at night missing America, missing my family, missing McDonald’s and shopping malls and billboards and iPhones and television. Because that’ll mean I’ve seen something more of the world. It’ll mean I’ve taken risks. It’ll mean that...

day 1 - your current relationship, if single...
Single. Fucking loving it. I’ve never liked being in a relationship. It feels like I can’t breathe when I’m dating someone. I need space. Lots of space. Relationships, the ones I’ve experienced anyway, require you to be beholden to someone else. I can’t do that. I’m okay by myself. Sometimes I think I’m better by myself, even. I’m not a girl who...
