This should be great, as I never watch movies. haha


Bold the ones you've seen.
Underline the ones you love.
Strike through the ones you hate.
Italicize the ones you want to see.

Rules of the Game:
A) People who have been tagged must write their answers on their blogs & replace any question that they dislike with a new question formulated by themselves.

B) Tag 8 people to do this quiz & those who are tagged cannot refuse. These people must state who they were tagged by & cannot tag the person whom they were tagged by. Continue this game by sending it to other people.

C) ENJOY? 

I'm not tagging anyone specifically, since the people I would have tagged either haven't been online in ages, or is the one who tagged me!

 The Big Read reckons that the average adult has only read 6 of the top 100 books they've printed. Well let's see.

1) Look at the list and bold those you have read.
2) Italicise those you intend to read.
3) Underline the books you LOVE.
4) Reprint this list in your own LJ so we can try and track down these people who've only read 6 and force books upon them :>



I"ve read 28/100.  I've wanted to read most of them, but whenever I end up at Borders, there's always a new Lafayette book tempting me...

In other book news, I went to the library today, picked out a huge stack of books, then realized I'd have to drag them all over the place, to work and then back home.  So I got only three large ones.  Plus... the ones that I really wanted are checked out at the moment. eeeep.  :)

So in short, I'm a boring person who's always on time.  Yep.  ahah




I have to go to the post office, Safeway and the bank today.   Errg. I wish Winco weren't so far away.  Safeway is so expensive.ShareThis

-26 As a 1930s wife, I am Very Poor (Failure) Take the test!

AHAHAHAHAHA. Maybe it's the vulgar story telling...  

That out of the way, I got my stays pattern in the mail today, along with History of the World, Pt. 1.  I can't believe I don't own it.  Netflix FTW.  Anyway, now all I have to do is figure out how to get to Joanns.  Or rather, find the time to get there.    Maybe Sunday. 

Work was weird today.  Have to go tomorrow too at noon.  :(

I always get neutral!  What the hell is wrong with me??!?!?!    Luckily, I don't speak like Southern Californians or the Eurkeans either...

Most of the books I read in high school were not what you would classically think of "high school" books. In fact, most stuff we read was out of a text book  >:(  Lame California standards.
'Tis quite a shame how unread I am.

EDIT:  After having gone through the list, the only one I was required to read in school was Catcher in the Rye.  Yeep
The following list are the top 106 books most often marked as unread by LibraryThing users.



 

Your Linguistic Profile:

65% General American English 15% Upper Midwestern 10% Yankee 5% Dixie 0% Midwestern

 

Apparently I'm general. haha

LAWLZ

from quincy134!  As she said in her post, I have a lot of userpics, and I tend to use five or six more than others.  I just love collecting them though! I wish I had photoshop to make some, but alas, I certainly don't have teh moneyz for that!

Anyway, if you want to play, comment and I'll pic 6 icons for you to post about!


  kippy:  Kippy is my older cat.  She hides in the bathtub.  I don't really use this one very often, but I really like it, because, you know... kitty!




  Romeo and Juliet promo:  This is from one of my favorite movies, Zeffirelli's Romeo and Juilet- well, actually it's just the kids from the movie who played Romeo and Juliet.  I have no idea why I like this one, but I love it and use it frequently!


  steamkitten:  My other cat,  Kitten.  This pic was taken on Christmas, after I had gotten goggles... Clearly, she's not very happy, but very, very steampunk, no?  :)


  Journey:  haha. This is one of my most recent additions to my ever growing userpic collection.  It's from Journey's "Separate Ways" video.  I don't know why they decided it was a good idea to glue a keyboard to the wall, but it was the '80s, so...


  louis:  Louis! My favorite character from my favorite movie!  I just think he was like a giant, adorable muppet.


  andrae: I really needed a Project Runway, and I can't say no to Andrae.  He was either beyond words gasping (like in the userpic) or beyond words sobbing.  He was crazy, and I think he really sums up the entire show perfectly.  Especially Santio Rice's story of him and Tim rendezvousing at Red Lobster.

:)

Okay, here's the answers to the last questions.  Finally! 

  Here are the answers to uknowimprecious 's questions!



 I hope that answers your questions!  Whee! 
feel free to ask any more *hint*  :-D

Well, as I was half way through doing this the first time, the cat felt the need to step  on the keyboard and erase it all. grr

1. Pick 15 of your favorite movies.
2. Go to IMDB and find a quote from each movie.
3. Post them here for everyone to guess.
4. Strike it out when someone guesses correctly, and put who guessed it and the movie.

Step 1: Put your music player on shuffle.
