I've just finished 'The Lord of The Flies' which is good, but you sort of have to really think about it. Or at least I think you do. It's weird, sort of wondering if what happens in the story would happen in real life. It sort of brings out a dark side of human nature. It's a good book, but p'raps not an easy read. (I like easy read books) But the ending... It destroyed my soul with it's almost inconclusiveness.
What's your favourite food,

But the ending... It destroyed my soul with it's almost inconclusiveness. Really? I loved the way that book ended. The loss of innocence has got to be my absolute favorite motif ever. Not sure if I really liked the book, but I personally thought it ended perfectly. Anyway, to answer the previous question, water would be my favorite thing to drink. With ice. I'm not much one for flavored drinks or anything like that. What is something that worries or bothers you?

P.S Simeysmiler, Joseph Gordon-Levitt, yum! :-D I agree with you there. Is it me or does he resemble the late Heath Ledger? I really think so and he was also yummy! lol *sighs* so sad he passed so young I agree! Heath Ledger was amazing in the Dark Knight as well as in the other things I've seen him in. Such a loss. I'm yet to watch Brokeback Mountain. Maybe over Xmas. I'm also going to see 50/50, at some stage or another. Back to question... Currently, the weather is bothering me. Why so much rain? I'm worried then about the amount of work/essays/study I have to do, the deadlines for which are looming. Oh well. Two weeks and I'm free~! If you were a wizard/witch and had been accepted into Hogwarts - what house would you have been sorted into (and why would it be that house?) I'd like to have been a Ravenclaw, but I could have been Hufflepuff either I think.

It's Hufflepuff for me, I was sorted there on Pottermore so, yunno. Sorting hat said so! My best friend FOUND that most amusing. (<--- Someone's got to get that) I could also be a Ravenclaw, methinks, due to my ~smurtnezz.
If there was a fictional character that you got the chance to meet IRL, who'd it be?

Hufflepuffs are particularly good finders! hahaha Anyway.. erm carrying on the Harry Potter theme, Albus Dumbledore, but the Richard Harris looking Dumbledore not the Michael Gambon one. He looks so cuddly, I would love to give him a hug! lol and he can do magic, enough said. Also there are some questions I would ask him. He is just a legend. What's the best place you have ever visited and why? Also Legrande so jealous you have a Pottermore account!

I really enjoy Long Island. I don't know why. I have family out there, so I've been visiting ever since I was little, and I have such romanticized views about it. I've always wanted to live out there.
What is one long-term goal that you have?

To be a Veterinary Nurse and to get back into performing arts. Bit of an odd combination I know. But those are the two things I love the most: animals and performing. (No I don't think I would like being in a circus lol)
What is your favourite thing about yourself?

I love my eyes. I have no idea why, but I do. ;D
Do you have a lucky article of clothing? Why is it lucky?

Um, I don't have an item of clothing that is lucky per se, but I have clothing that, when I wear, I feel lucky in the sense of being more confident. I love skinny jeans and ankle boots.
Have you read a book lately that you didn't like? If so, what make it unenjoyable to you?

No. Lately I've been re-reading the Harry Potter series for the third time, and I enjoy the HP series :).
Where's the farthest place you've ever been too?

Hmm I haven't travelled very far, would like to though. I guess Greece is the furthest I have been and considering I live in Englad thats not really that far. Did love Greece though, very lovely place. I would love to go to America, France, Africa and Italy. To name a few lol
What is your favourite animal? Any particular reason why?

I've had an attachment to penguins since I was eleven/ten. I don't really know why, but now I have a collection of various stuffed toy penguins and ornaments...
Are you celebrating Christmas this year? If you are, are your decorations up yet?

Post by Caitlin on Dec 11, 2011 20:39:58 GMT
Yep! We're celebrating it at my Grandmother's house this year, so it'll be nice to get to see the whole family together :]. We haven't put up Christmas decorations, which is rather surprising since my mom is ALWAYS all for getting them up super early. I guess shes just been busy.
Do you read a lot? What was the last book you read, and did you enjoy it?

I do read a lot. I'm currently in the middle of reading three books, if Shakespeare's Hamlet counts as a book. I'm also re-reading The Pact by Jodi Picoult and, though it's a little young for me, Walk Two Moons by Sharoon Creech. Though I do love that book. I'm also about to start The Blind Assasin by Margaret Atwood, too; I've heard that's a really good book by multiple people.
The last book I actually finished, though, was The Bluest Eye. It was a book I had to read for class, and I didn't particularly like it. I could go on and on about why not (I've had so many arguments with my friends about this), but I won't to spare you all the misery.
Besides the Sims, what is a hobby of yours?
