laurainlimbo at 01:46pm on 25/03/2006Here is a nice, long meme - and to spare your friends' page, its under the cut
1. What does your Livejournal name mean?
well, it refers to the fact that I, Laura, am constantly in a state of limbo, or indecision, regarding my future, and I'm constantly moving around and trying to find my place in the world
2. Elaborate on your default photo?
it was made by my friendiilii as my very first icon, and I've kept it as my default cause its cute - and its Hello Kitty!
3. Make up a question.

I'm married
5. What EXACTLY are you wearing right now?

getting an apartment in Chicago and moving out of Japan!
7. What do you love most?
my family, my cat, my friends, movies, chocolate, good food, clean air, nature, my mind
8. What makes you most happy?
all of the above (#7), as well as writing, reading, relaxing with family or friends, hearing rain on the roof, knowing that my friends and family are happy and safe
9. Are you musically inclined?
yes, but I quit playing an instrument years ago. I played clarinet and piano until I was in high school, and I used to sing in the choir as a child too
10. If you could go back in time, and change something, what would you change?
I can't say that here - its personal!
11. If you MUST be an animal for ONE day, what would you be?
a cat, of course!!
12. Ever have a near death experience?
only when I wasn't born yet: when my mother went to visit the doctor for a check-up a week before I was due, the old doctor stuck his finger into the placenta, blood sprayed everywhere, and my life (as well as my mother's) was put at risk. we were rushed to the hospital in an ambulance and I was born caesarian. that is why my life is so unusual!
13. Name an obvious quality you have.
how can I know what is obvious to others? well, maybe its obvious that I'm considerate of others? or does this mean physical qualities? if so, then its obvious that I'm tall

nothing is stuck in my head right now, thankfully!

John F. Kennedy, and Bob Hope
17. Have you ever vandalized someone's private property?
of course not!
18. Have you ever been in a fight?
lots of verbal fights, but no physical fights. I'd lose! But when I was a child, I got stuck in the wrong place at the wrong time, and got punched by a very bad boy. His name was Lonnie.
19. Have you ever sung in front of a large audience?
no
20. What is the first thing you notice about the opposite sex?
eyes, smile, hair, and intelligence
21. What do you usually order from Starbucks?
if I had one near here, I would order an iced latte - or perhaps a hot chai latte
24. Has anyone ever said you looked like a celebrity?
yes, when I met the lead singer for the Psychedelic Furs at an in-store appearance (I was a teenager), he said I looked like Martha Quinn from MTV. Honestly! Also, I've been compared to Marie Osmond. Hee!
25. Do you still watch kiddy movies or TV shows?
I love Miyazaki movies, and of course most Disney movies too! I loved Shrek, but that was really more for adults wasn't it? Kids tv shows: Japanese ones are good for learning Japanese but otherwise, I don't watch kids shows
26. Did you have braces?
oh, yes I did. for a long time. hated it. but I'm thankful to my mother since I had terrible teeth!
27. Are you comfortable with your height?

my husband wrote songs for me
29. Do you speak any other languages?
Mochiron. Watashi wa sukoshi Nihonogo wo hanashimasu.

30. Do you have a crush on someone on your livejournal?
No- Crushes are silly school-girl things *rushes off to look at photos of Johnny Depp and Jake Gyllenhaal*
