Vegetarianism!
I was a vegetarian a long time ago for about a year (although I still ate fish, so I don't know if it really counts)... But I didn't really do it for any reason other to see if it could. Then I just slowly began to eat meat again. I give lots of kudos to people who have the dedication to become vegetarian/vegan and who do it for whatever their own personal cause is. (also just because you stop eating meat, doesn't mean you're eating healthy. Make sure you still get your source of protein, but I'm sure you know that. I just had a friend who went vegan and wasn't eating enough protein, so she started to get sick.) Personally, I love meat - well, food in general - and I don't think I could give it up again.

ROOMMATES.
I wish I had the opportunity to contact my roommate. My university gives out contact info once a roommate is assigned, but they messed up somehow and accidentally assigned me someone who had decided not to attend my uni. They fixed the glitch, but now I have no roommate assigned and I'm afraid I'm not going to know who it is until after I move in. :(

Rate the latest movie you've seen
Whiteout 6/10 At the end of the film, I realized that it was based on a comic I bought a long time ago but never read. And now I'm torn cause I want to read it, but I know the ending already and it makes me a little sad.

Music You've Just "Discovered"
[ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H29u0g8aGDA&feature=related]YouTube- Lydia - A Story For Supper[/ame] I went to a show in which they were headlining. Never heard of them before that show, but I found out that they were on their last tour before splitting up for good. It was a bittersweet moment discovering these guys.

Do you have any pets?
The majority of my animals were "rescued" in a way. My turtle had it's tail bitten off by other turtles when it was little and they would pick on it. (but now my turtle is huge and aggressive), I had a frog I found that wasn't doing so well and nursed back to health, my dog was abandoned, I had taken home a baby bird that was dying and tried to nurse it to health but it died a couple days later. I also had a lizard whom the majority of it's fingers weren't burnt off along with part of it's tail and a bit of it's face. I'm going to be one of those crazy ladies who ends up with a gazllion pets I rescued and treat them all like my adopted kids. ahaha.

What's your favourite merch?
except it's blue. It's my favorite shirt, though. I honestly usually only buy merch for smaller bands, though. Because I don't really have a whole lot of money to spend and I want the money I do have to support small bands who don't really make that much money to begin with. Oh, but I also really love my Coldplay bag. I use it more than a regular purse. heh.

2010 Albums Worth Listening To
Has anyone listened to Zola Jesus' new EP, Stridulum? I think it's one of my favorite albums to so far this year. Every time I listen to it, every single song on it gives me chills.

Do you have any pets?
I love turtles too. I'm actually saving up my money to get a tattoo of a turtle. :) and my dog is a schnauzer. I love him so much, he's super weird but really loyal and loving and we actually found him, but he was already house trained and everything so that was really awesome.

Aw, I thought it was a fantastic interpretation of the book. (and I'm kind of glad that even though the movie kept the violence, it wasn't as bloody or crazy as in the book. Or I would have felt like I was watching that one scene in Kill Bill where she kills all those people in that restaurant in Japan.) And I don't normally like Nicholas Cage, but I found his portrayal as Big Daddy super enjoyable. But to each their own, I suppose. :)
