  1. a. Having a specific restaurant's lemon-tinged cheesecakes (freshly made) in constant supply for the rest of my life
    b. A friend to talk to
    c. A never-ending stream of new and wonderful games, in addition to all the other forms of entertainment I currently indulge in
    d. Two grand pianos- one for me, one for my imaginary friend who would also play and would always be willing to improvise duets.
  2. Dunno- I'm very honest and open. I'd have to look through every post so far to see what gaps are there, and I'm not going to do that.
  3. Bleucch and bleucch. Alternative rock is the lesser of two evils.
=====================================
  1. Baroque or Romantic?
  2. Major or Minor?
  3. Strings or Woodwinds?

  1. The only thing really driving me at the moment is the promise of instant gratification. Goals? Well, that's another question, isn't it?
  2. The question assumes I have guy friends. However, with all the friends I don't have I talk about videogames, comics, and TV shows.
  3. I don't like dates or other fruits. Oh, you mean the other kind of date. Beats me.
================================
  1. How would you improve the look of the sky?
  2. How would you be likely to mess it up?
  3. What would you be thanked for?

1. I want to make the world a better place to live in. That's the driving force between everything I do or want to do.
2. Depends which guy friends. Like my girl friends, they have myriad interests...
3. November 23, 1985. One that involves the kind of person I could never get tired of talking to. The rest doesn't really matter to me all that much. (Though I tend to prefer more conversation and less making out, due to my lack of an attention span for the latter.)

1. I'd add a bit more purple and neon green and make the clouds look more like animals and toasters.
2. See above.
3. Scarring people's retinas, thus developing an evolved race of humans with excellent senses of hearing and smell.

1. Optimism leading to disappointment, or pessimism leading to pleasant surprises?

1. I find that optimism is more likely to lead to pleasant surprises, but I'll pick that option in either case. It's more fun to be optimistic.
2. Biggest risk? I can't think of anything really risky, so I'll say "studying music". It's not the safest thing to study if you want a job afterwards, but so far I've been lucky.
3. Yes.

----

1. Is silly usually a good thing?
2a. (If you answered yes above.) Even if it's someone being silly next to you? (I.e. not just in games and movies.)
2b. (If you answered "no".) Why not?
3. Do you have a good memory?

1. Generally old-school, but content matters to me more than the time in which something was made.
2. I like my art to be abstract and my conversations with other people to be literal. Makes for a lot less confusion and misunderstanding that way.
3. There's a time and place for both.

***

1. Are you actually good at adventure games?
2. Do you like it when poems rhyme?
3. Do you honestly believe that there's someone out there who will make your life heaven? Because, you know, that's a lot to expect from one person. I, for one, doubt that I would ever be able to live up to such a high standard.

1. I'm fairly good so long as they're actually logical. When they're not I get annoyed (I'm looking at you, Moment of Silence).
2. Yes. Poems don't have to rhyme, but I always think that a genuinely good rhyming poem trumps a good poem that doesn't rhyme.
3. No. Mainly because I'm not entirely sure that there's someone out there, but also because nobody is perfect.
________

1. What is your favourite poem?
2. What is your favourite Christmas Carol (assuming that you like them at all)?
3. If you could live in any country in the world, which would it be?

1. An untitled poem written by an old flame of mine circa five years ago.
2. "I Saw Mommy Kissing Santa Claus" makes me giggle, especially since I always used to think it was about marital infidelity.
3. Temporarily, I'm up for trying my hand at living just about anywhere. More permanently, though, I'd probably just stick to Canada or the US, mainly for the job opportunities.

***

1. Do you get along best with folks who are older, younger, or the same age as you?
2. Would you say it's possible for a religious person and a non-religious person to have a lasting relationship?
3. How often do you deal in absolutes?

1. I generally think that I annoy everyone, but I tend to spend my time socialising with people who are my age or a bit younger. Mind you, this has become less true at university, as there are fewer younger people around.
2. Yes... my mother and father are still happily married! It seems to just involve not discussing religion at home and tolerance of people heading off to church or whatever.
3. I never deal in absolutes.
________

1. If you could pick any period of your life so far to return to, which would it be, and why?
2. Can a fourth Indiana Jones film ever be as good as the previous three?
3. Brains or beauty?

  1. Right now, because I've never been so carefree. So I suppose I'd hold off on taking up your offer until the end of this period, and then relive it.
  2. Sure- the second wasn't that wonderful, and the third was just goofy. It can easily be as good as those two.
  3. Mmmmm.... brains....
==================================================
  1. Are you interested in history?
  2. Which is more artistic- misery or joy?
  3. At what point does a forum thread jump the shark?

1. Yes.
2. I think misery is easier to represent artistically, and therefore better represented, but when joy is done right, it's obviously a more appealing work of art to look at/hear.
3. Right now

No, no, girls crush on teachers too. In my case, however, not until junior high.

I'll let someone else answer your questions, seeing as I've never watched enough Star Trek to do so properly.
