If you could write a book about anything, what would it be about?

I'm a journal girl. Cryptic, illegible musings about nothing in particular fascinate me more. Expressing them, anyway. If you tried to feed me your own, I'd maybe prefer to gut myself with a dull blade and let the infection set in.

Story-wise.. dunno. I've always had people tell me I have potential in fiction. I'm not sure why, but I just ended up stopping with it. I came to the conclusion that expressing ideas in that sense only frustrated me and I knew better ways to execute the things swimming in my brain than a droning on of lackluster descriptions that couldn't begin to touch the surface of what I wanted to do.

Plus I just bought this bad-ass Cthulhu journal from DragonCon and I foresee a great deal of pretty..

What was (or is) your favorite subject in school?

SCIENCE. Biology! Chemistry... esecially chemistry. Adfjkhds. I miss going to school for those things. >.<

What was the first movie you remember seeing in a movie theater? 
Question submitted by mainmor.

I remember my aunt taking me to the theater before I was to spend the night at her house. I know it was late, I know we were close-ish to the screen, and I know it was a western. I'd like to think it was 'Tombstone', but I can never be certain. That movie came out in 1993. And seeing as how she's dead now, I'll never get to ask her what it was if she'd even remember. But that's my earliest movie-going memory.

Funny thing is, now I go to the movies constantly, and not always for ones I want to see. Hooray screenings!

Till Lindemann

I want.

What is your favorite cover song?
Question submitted by Ray.

They're not exactly 'better' than the original. I tend to choose loving cover songs by how different they are from the original, making it so you can't really compare the two.

So, in short, I think the answer would be:

"White Wedding" by Rowland S. Howard (original by Billy Idol) and/or "Stripped" by Rammstein (original by Depeche Mode).

Here's one that's a lot better than the original:

"Cry Little Sister" by Carfax Abbey. It's a cover from the heinous song featured in 'the Lost Boys'. The cover actually manages to be really good.
