Saturday Six - Episode 72
I will try to redeem myself for last week’s blunder of question #6. Sorry to the early players last week for giving you a question that didn’t make as much sense as it should have. (I did correct the question later, so if you go back now, you’ll see what it should have read from the start.)
Amanda of “The Private Drama of My Life” (a private journal) was first to play last week. Congratulations, Amanda!
Last week’s questions marked the first time that Jennifer and Redsneakz played the ‘Six.’ Be sure to stop by their journals and say hello.
Here are this week’s “Saturday Six” questions. Either answer the questions in a comment here, or put the answers in an entry on your journal…but either way, leave a link to your journal so that everyone else can visit! If you don’t have an AOL journal, you can still play, but of course you’ll at least need an AOL screen name, which you can get for free with AOL Instant Messenger, to be able to leave a comment here. To be counted as “first to play,” you must be the first player to either answer the questions in a comment or to provide a complete link to the specific entry in your journal in which you answer the questions. A link to your journal in general cannot count. (Again, if you’re playing for the first time, please be sure to say so in the comment!) Enjoy!
1. What is your current desktop picture? What made you select it?
2. A close friend who you consider to be up to date on fashion suggests that you should update your look and offers to pay for a session with an experienced hairstylist you’ve never dealt with before. Knowing that it’s free, would you go?
3. When you do look in a mirror, what is the first thing you usually look at?
4. Take this quiz: Which Bugs Bunny character are you?
5. What label seems to describe you the best as a whole?
6. READER’S CHOICE QUESTION #60 from Stacy: Is there a specific person that you credit with your successes? and HOW did they help you?
If you have a Reader’s Choice question you’d like to see asked (and answered), click the e-mail link on the About Me bar and send it to me.
MY ANSWERS:
1. A closeup section of Van Gogh’s “Starry Night over the Rhone,” the same one that appears as a background element in my alternate journal, “Patrick’s Place 2.” I’ve liked Van Gogh’s various “Starry Night” portrayals, and I like the deep colors of that one.
2. This has happened to me in the past week. I’m still mulling it over.
3. Almost always: my hair. Those of us with the “game show hair” have to make sure we haven’t missed any stray hairs with the hair spray!
4. Bugs Bunny: You have all the sophistication and charm one would expect from such a high-class hare. Very upbeat and generally laid-back, you are remarkably calm and peaceful even in the midst of the most stressful of situations. On those rare occasions that your anger is aroused, your retaliation usually results in embarrassing the aggressor and laying-bare how foolish he or she really is — rather than doing any real harm. You likely have many friends and more than a few admirers and would make an excellent leader, if you had any interest in being one. But, being a leader would require hard work and attention to detail, both qualities you are lacking in. In fact, if you are not careful, your laid-back attitude will often lead you to drift through life completely oblivious to the changes happening around you. You also tend to have a horrible sense of direction.
5. Unfortunately, because I can’t think of one more fitting at the moment, I’ll have to go with “loner.” I believe that “artist” (though not necessarily the painting kind) is applicable, too, and often because of I am also a loner.
6. I would have to say that more than anyone else, it would be my mother. She never tried to lead me to one career or the other, but encouraged me to do what I wanted. When it became clear that what I wanted was to work in TV, she never tried to talk me out of it. When it came time for college, I learned that she had been buying US Savings Bonds since I was six months old, so I didn’t have to borrow a penny in student loans. (That’s not to say I didn’t rack up debt, but the debt I built was my own, and through stupidity, not necessity.)
