1. You mean, blog/internet-wise? Well, I didn't spend much time on the computer, honestly. The occasional game website, but not much. I had never blogged before, and I had never used any kind of writer's website before. I still don't use any besides the CB...anything else would probably end up being like social media, and any other writing website would be too big. I wouldn't feel comfortable putting my stuff there. The CB is the corner of the internet where it feels secure.

2. I just finished "Heartless" by Marissa Meyer. I shall not speak of it; I was holding back sobs when I finished. WHY?!?! Anyway, I'm also almost finished rereading the diary of Anne Frank.

3.  Actually I didn't listen to anything today, but yesterday I listened to my favorite songs from Rent. (It's a musical.)

4. Here what I thought: "Think of me, think of me fondly, when we've said goodbyyye..." (It's "Think of Me" from Phantom of the Opera)

5.  Amado mio. It's from a song, "Amado Mio" which is in all English except for that one phrase which is in Italian. I don't know the translation, but after she sings "Amaaado mio," she sings "Love me forever" so I assume that's what it means.

 

Thanks for the survey, Moonlight. It was short and sweet, with questions I enjoyed answering.

Ive never met you before (I'm quite an old CBer, and I've been break from the CB since around September)...so, nice to meet you. Welcome to the CB. :)

1. What did you do before you went on the CB?

I took a bath and talked to my friends for a while. 

2. What book are you reading?

Well, I'm reading The Singing but that's kind of dense, so I also started The Remarkable Adventures of Charlie Price, but that's kind of sad, so I also started the sixth Amulet book. So when I want a good old melancholy read, I pull out my sad book, when I want to slip back into my temporary series of residence and catch up with my dear friends Maerad and Hem, I pick up The Singing- and when I want a lighter hearted and vividly world built read, I pour over the pictures in Amulet. 

3. If you were/are listening to music, what music would/are you listen(ing) to?

"In Circles" from the Transistor OST. Maaan this game gives me ALL the feels... and I haven't even finished it, so for you rare people who might know what I'm talking about, NO SPOILERS! 

4. Think of _____. What did you think of?

With slight confusion I thought of a blank abyss in the world, a complete blankness, some sort of lack of space or meaning, then a sad/unimpressed emoji face. Then I sort of understood it, and thought of one of my friends, then the scarf I'm knitting, then of a little snippet of a story idea I had a couple of days ago, regarding a huge plain of slow swaying hills that switch places with grass that grabs onto your toes.  

5. Think of a random word/phrase in another language. What word/phrase were you thinking of and what does it mean?  

¿Como te llamas? ('what is your name?' in Spanish)

1. I was writing my NaNo story, but I came onto CB because I got stuck on some dialogue. 

2. I'm reading the whole Warriors series again, but right now I'm only on Fire and Ice, the second book of the first epoch. 

3. Probably Hamilton, I have to admit. Or pretty orchestral music. 

4. Line? I don't know, maybe also a ._____. face. 

5. Somnium. It means 'illusion' in Latin.

The color blue. 

5. Think of a random word/phrase in another language. What word/phrase were you thinking of and what does it mean?
