gharbad, I'll ask you five questions if you post here. Post them in your own LJ so that I can get MOAR!
1. What's your goal in life?
Right now? My goal is to get a goal. My last goal seems to be... not unsatisfying, exactly, but I feel completely unequipped to write what I want to write. And I know it's just a matter of sitting down and writing, but when I get there I just stare at the screen and it's AWFUL. I'm struggling even to come up with RP characters or situations. And it's not even the inner critic shutting me down. It's the mental equivalent of staring at a blank wall for HOURS ON END. I think I need to find something that I really want to fulfil as a goal, and go for that. The problem is I'm having a bitch of a time coming up with anything.
Beyond that, my current goal is to get a job.
2. What is your favourite roleplaying rules set?
New World of Darkness, hands above ANYTHING else. Most of the new White Wolf is great. I still can't wrap my head around Exalted 2e combat, but I think that's a lack of familiarity. Scion looks fantastic, I LOVE Requiem, and if I could ever get a Mage or Werewolf game to last longer than a couple of months, I bet you I'd love them too.
3. What do you wish you could do better?
Self-motivate. I've discovered I'm awful at making myself do things, even if I want to do them. See also: getting music lessons, writing, learning to cook, improve my artistic ability... and so on, and so on. I'm a terrible procrastinator and have a hard time making myself DO SHIT.
4. What is your favourite 80s media?
As in, favorite item from any media? Or just general media? I'll probably go with The Last Unicorn for the first, and general media, music.
5. Who do you admire in life?
-Serena, because 1) I wish I was marginally that talented artistically/motivated/strong/beautiful, and 2) because dude, she's awesome.
-My mom (dude, I know, cheese), because, see again: strong.
-Tanya Huff, Terry Pratchett, and Neil Gaiman, because I totally want to be them. All of them. At once.
