Of all the class Cephalopoda, which specific species is your favorite?

I’m a big fan of Vampyroteuthis infernalis. Not just because of its cool name… but Architeuthis dux is the reason I got into squid and therefore is my favorite.

why don’t you like anyone?

I love my friends, but I don’t think that’s what you meant. I get crushes out of habit but I honestly don’t really ever have feelings for the opposite sex. I have once and that was a while ago. I think I’m just easily bored.

What song makes you the most nostalgic?

Third Eye Blind - Jumper. I know that sounds like a cop-out, but I have so many memories attached to that song from all different stages of my life.

Sesame Street’s Monsterpiece Theater - “TWIN BEAKS”

If you know what’s good for you, you’ll watch this. My love for Jim Henson just deepened dramatically.

What was the happiest moment of your life so far?

I have let this question sit in my inbox for 5 days. I was hoping for some divine intervention — some memory to pop into my head that makes me feel like I have the answer.

I don’t have an answer except this one: I don’t know.

I hope there is some point in my life where I can answer this question. My life is good, I don’t mean to sound depressed, but I really don’t feel as if any high points stick out above the rest.

I hope this isn’t a disappointing answer. I just simply haven’t a clue. I wish I did.

Resolutions...

Day 2 of veganism is so far so good. Don’t miss anything yet. Figuring out how to eat is complicated but it’ll work out.

As far as finishing my book by the end of the year? Well, no progress so far, but it’s only day 2.

darkegreen: schmufflepuff: (via wearblack) I love this movie so much. But on another note, I really like this still. As someone who has been insecure my entire life, and still am, I often feel like the odd one out… like Abigail Breslin in a room full of tiny beauty queens. What I love about the character in this movie is she did what she loved with complete abandon. I admire that. I know it’s fictional, but there are people out there like this. The ones we laugh at but secretly wish we had that kind of courage. I often hope that I can find that weird unrelenting faith in myself at some point in my life. I don’t think it’s a learned thing, I think it just happens. So I’m just waiting for the day when I don’t feel ashamed of every aspect of my personality or appearance, stop being my own worst critic and start being my own cheerleader — you achieve much more when you feel invincible.

Any special meaning behind the tattoos?

Yes! All of them!

In chronological order:
—>Heart with spring lilies and tulips & “Heart and Soul” on the banner on my forearm is for my mother and my best friend Holley.
—>Cephalopod bringing down the ship is based on a drawing from 1801 by Pierre Denys de Montfort, who has an interesting story. I want to study squid.
—>The 5 bees are in reference to my favorite book (I Served the King of England by Bohumil Hrabal) because of a scene where a prostitute who falls in love with the protagonist pours a grenadine over her head and a bunch of bees and wasps land on her. It’s a very well written scene.
—>My sunflowers are for my favorite band, Refused, as they have a song called Sunflower Princess. They’ve been my favorite band since I was 11 and I knew I wanted to get something that had to do with them without it being a tacky “band” tattoo.
—>And last but not least, my bear! It’s a grizzly bear, drawn in the style of the one on the Californian flag except much, much more badass. I am from California, and also I love bears.

That’s all of ‘em (so far)!

Being told by my ex-boyfriend that I’m unattractive is not a great way to start an evening.

(I shouldn’t care, but I do.)
