Meme
Comment with your favorite color (or a color you really like, if you don't have a favorite) and I'll respond by asking you five questions so I can get to know you better. Update your journal with the answers to the questions. Include this explanation in the post and offer to ask other people questions.
honeynoir gave me these questions:
1. What’s your favourite song? (At the moment.)
Ahhhh, you /had/ to do this to me, didn't you? Haha, I don't even really have one at the moment—I'm in that dreary phase in-between two addiction-songs, when you just flick between songs you love and look for the thrill ;) Latest have been a mix of DW-series-six soundtrack songs, and "Handlebars" by Flobots. But "Breath of Life" by Florence + The Machine has a good shot at favourite-song-ever—well, not my actual favourite, I guess, but at least one that'll virtually set me on fire EVERYTIME I listen to it.
2. A genre (literature/film/anything) you really like?
Dark, passionate love stories—does this count as a genre? Stuff that tears you apart and doesn't end well and it's entirely okay?
3. What’s your favourite drink?
Lots of flavoured teas (mint, lemon, citrus fruits, red berries), and coffee—or rather, the chicory-coffee mix I usually consume…
4. What was the last film you saw? What did you think about it?
Oh, I haven't seen a film in too long… Shame, shame on me. I think it must have been Dark Shadows. I found it very fun, but was a bit disappointed by some comedy bits that seemed a bit over the top, and Eva Green's character lacking a bit of the depth I'd have liked her to have. I was crazy about Eva Green at the time after she played Morgan in Camelot, and I was craving a good, hot, angsty and charismatic bad character. And maybe not a fake blonde.
Also I was on a date at the time, so the whole middle part of the film was sort of blurry to me…
…WAIT NO. I just remembered I watched Snow-White and the Huntsman a lot more recently! Nice movie. Beautiful moments, Kirsten Stewart's performance seemed all right to me, though nothing especially outstanding, and I enjoyed the character of Ravenna. And of course, Breath of Life. Enough said.
5. What’s the fandom of your heart?
A tie between Harry Potter and Doctor Who. Harry Potter has owned me since I was ten—earlier than that, even. It's been the only fandom I wrote fanfiction for for years, if you don't count the occasional one-time exploring, and… it's just a huge part of who I am, as a writer and a fan. But Doctor Who is the only other fandom that made me feel just as passionate, and at the moment, if I'm being honest, my DW OTP is all I care about.

Were you sent these memes? I wish I could find one to answer, just for fun! Though we'll see when the new account arrives.
no subject
Maybe you missed the part in italics at the very top of the post. -points- I gave another user a colour, and she gave me five questions in return. I can do that to you if you want ;)
no subject
Oh, these memes sound like so much fun though! Regretfully, my colour picking will have to wait until I am settled into the new journal. I'll PM you with my new penname?
I really liked your answer for which film you went to see and what you thought of it. That was the one that made me giggle the most :P
no subject
Haha, well I had no idea it was so funny. I actually forgot to mention Black Swan, which I rewatched—it's too good to be forgotten… And today was DH part one all over again… ;)
no subject
Hahaha! Well, I suppose that is two films you have watched :P Which one do you like better? Snow White or Black Swan?
DH, I love that movie! Do you go to youtube sometimes and listen to the soundtracks? They are wonderful and create so much inspiration for stories.
no subject
And yes, I do! Atm I'm mostly into the Doctor Who soundtrack (yeah, you can look surprised!), but I've been listening to the very first DH track, "Obliviate", too. I heard one song from the "Inception" soundtrack that was fantastic as well, though I have yet to watch that movie. And Lord of the Rings must be epic since I think Clint Mansell wrote that one.
no subject
Snow White was nice, didn't really like it but it was good. I prefer Black Swan or the 1979 version of the Three Musketeers. Oh and Harry Potter!
Alright, because you said comment in this post with a favourite colour, I'll do that right now before I forget. So I choose ORANGE!
What an odd colour to like right? :P
no subject
Agreement on the movies!
Haha, not so much! Well, not so usual, but it's a pretty, cheerful colour. All right, so questions:
1- What is your favourite treat?
2- What do you like to do to relax or let off your steam after a tiring day?
3- Can you think of a single word you can define yourself with? (Well, maybe not something that entirely sums you up, just something whose spirit matches your personality well or a personality trait that really stands out.)
4- What's on your bedroom walls (if anything)?
5- What's your favourite season?
