So.... Globo tagged me to write 10 things about myself. I am one person! How do I write ten things? There's my name, BlazingZephyr, and that's about it...right? Oh well, here goes!

*Rules*

-Post these rules
- Each person tagged must post 10 things about them in their journal
- In the end, any person tagged has to choose 8 people and post their icons in the same journal
- Go to their pages and send a message saying that they have been tagged
- No tag-return


So...Me (like you really want to know)

1. I don't eat mammal or bird meat, though I do eat seafood, dairy, and eggs. Before you freak out on me asking how those exceptions feel pain any less than mammals and fowl do, let me explain. Meat seems to have negative effects on my body. I have difficulty processing them and feel drained and sick when I eat them. I've disliked meat as long as I can remember. I disagree with making animals taboo for eating, it's unnatural! Animals often eat other animals, that's just how the food-chain works and we're part of it. My body, however, has something wrong with it so I can't process meat like I should. [phew that one was too long!]

2. I like wearing skirts and dresses, even if I don't do so terribly often.

3. My favorite color is bright yellow...like my bedroom walls and my sheets and pillow.

4. I suck at sports, but I secretly like them anyway as long as no one laughs at me.

5. I'm extremely critical, especially of myself but not as much towards my friends and strangers.

6. I have a very tense love-hate relationship with the USA.

7. I'm very interested in out-there cosmetic fashion, like cyber rave and punk goth styles. But I've never worn those styles, not even once in my entire life. My Halloween costumes don't even reach that level. *sigh* I probably never will actually wear any of those styles even though they fascinate me.

8. My hair is naturally blonde and I find it so annoying that so many people die their hair blonde trying to look cool. Now everybody seems to think MY hair is dyed and everyone else's is natural! I think that's so sad. If you're going to dye your hair do something fun with it. Example, I wanted to dye my hair so I dyed in bold purple streaks. Don't dye it trying to pass yourself off as something you're not. Brunettes are sexy. Black hair is sexy! Gray hair is sexy! Be real or be crazy, just don't be a faker.

9. I enjoy cooking, especially if it's just for myself since most people don't seem to get as excited about vegetables as I do.

10. I push things off the bed when I sleep. Pillows, stuffed animals, real animals, most people. Then I don't move for the rest of the night; I just lay there *perfectly* still until I wake up in the morning.


So now I must tag 8 people...do I know 8 people?? I highly doubt it. ummm I'll do that in a bit when I've had a chance to look through my watchers and such. Beware!

So I was tagged by and now I have to list ten things about my art. If I can find ten people, they will also have to list ten things about their art. *looks at tiny friends list*

1. My best work happens when I'm zoning out or almost asleep. This is complicated by the fact that it's very difficult to get down the ladder of my dorm bed in the middle of the night.

2. I'm actually quite ashamed of most of my work. My senior year English teacher didn't like any of it even though I showed him some of my best stuff. Also, I kind of see his point that my poetry can get angsty sometimes and that it may not be easy for people to relate to... *shrugs* At least I get something out of it for myself.

3. I suck at traditional poetry styles. They just don't suit my personality AT ALL!

4. My fine motor skills....wait...what fine motor skills?

5. My topics are pretty varied ie, love, suicide, religion, social commentary, fantasy, allegory, etc.

6. I can't stand keeping any of my art to myself. I go insane if I refuse to share it for too long cause I can't move past the issues it brings up until I do.

7. OK, so...I like to write poetry, but I hardly ever read any. So I guess I'm a sort of uneducated poet. Don't have influences from any professionals usually. I read a lot of fiction, but it doesn't directly affect my own fiction that I've put on DeviantArt.

8. Most of my art is deeply personal and extremely complex to the point of being nearly incomprehensible even to myself.

9. I'm desperate to put certain lyrics of mine to music but I have no skill at composing.

10. I could never sell my art because it's not worth buying.

Back on deviantart. Thanks.

BlazingZephyr will be away from DeviantArt for approximately one week. Please do not leave messages in my absence or ask why I'm gone, thank you.
