Hot Seat: Writing the Story of Our Lives! Jenn is Up!

Hello everyone!

I thought we would start this game. Basically the person in the "Hot Seat" answers the questions you post for 4 days (please don't ask anything to personal) and after those 4 days they pick the next person in the Hot Seat by sending them a PM and posting on the thread. Just PM myself or Soz if you have any questions about this game.

This is a great way for us to get to know each other better!

Susan aka Rain Candy has agreed to go first.

So lets start

Questions:

What time do you normally wake up in the morning?

Do you channel surf?

Do you normally wear heels of flats?

Do you sleep on your back, side, stomach?

How did you come up with your screen name?

What is your favorite kind of soda?

Interesting questions, here goes:

What time do you normally wake up in the morning?
On school days, around 5 to 6. On non-school days, around 7 to 8. (I'm a morning person.)

Do you channel surf?
Sometimes during the summer, but during the school year I don't have much time to watch TV so I just have a few set shows that I record and I watch them over the weekend.

Do you normally wear heels of flats?
Flats. I will never understand the point of heels. When people complain to me that their heels are killing their feet, I tend to just look at them like they're crazy.

Do you sleep on your back, side, stomach?
Generally I sleep on my side, but I have mild insomnia and when I can't sleep, I'll sleep on my back or stomach or completely change the direction I'm facing, etc.

How did you come up with your screen name?
My sister actually came up with it about 6 years ago. She would change her MSN name periodically to some really random things, Rain Candy being one of the less strange ones. I always liked it and she gave me permission to steal it so I did. I found out later that someone else goes by the same name though because when I register for things online I always end up being raincandy2. (2 is my favorite number so I just add that to the end.)

What is your favorite kind of soda?
Orange soda. But I'm not really into soda. I prefer sparkling water (which is much healthier and quite frankly I think it tastes way better) in which case my favorite flavor is key lime.

Do you swim in the nude?

When you eat a gummi bear, do you pop the whole thing in the mouth or do you bite?

If you bite, which part do you bite off first? The head? The hands? The feet?

On a scale of 0 to 10, where 0 = completely quiet and 10 = deafening scream, how you would you rate your scream when you:

- watch a horror movie
- ride a roller coaster
- meet a talking frog

Hm. Questions are getting harder.

Susan what is your favorite smell?
I'm going to have to say food. Tex Mex mostly, but I love the smell of any food that I like.

Which room in your house is your favorite?
I like all the rooms in my house for different reasons, but I'll just say my bedroom because it's where I sleep and it's where all my books are.

Do you like watching animated films?
Depends on the film. There are a few I like, but I prefer real people.

Would you rather eat steak, lobster, or a salad?
Salad. I love salads, but only when they're loaded with more toppings than actual salad.

What is your favorite subject in school?
Art is by far my favorite. English is second.

Do you swim in the nude?
No.

When you eat a gummi bear, do you pop the whole thing in the mouth or do you bite?
I'm not very obsessive-compulsive when it comes to gummi-bear-eating. I'll do either. It doesn't matter.

If you bite, which part do you bite off first? The head? The hands? The feet?
Again, doesn't matter.

On a scale of 0 to 10, where 0 = completely quiet and 10 = deafening scream, how you would you rate your scream when you:

- watch a horror movie: I hate horror movies, but I don't scream usually scream when I watch them, I just nearly have a silent heart attack.
- ride a roller coaster: Never been on one, don't care to ever be on one.
- meet a talking frog: Never met one, but I'm really mellow. I probably wouldn't scream at all.

How many times a week do you go to a bookstore?
I am still without a driver's license (learning to drive is too much stress than I can bear right now, but I've mastered driving around my neighborhood without any major disasters), so I can't really go anywhere very often. I try to go to the bookstore at least 1-2 times a month. Some days my sis and I will go to 3 different bookstores in one day. It really depends. I've been so busy this semester that I think it's been at least 4 or 5 months since I've set foot in a library. It makes me sad. But I've completely gone off on a tangent now. Next question.

What do your favorite pjs look like?
Blue shirt with matching plaid shorts. Snoopy is on the front of the shirt and shorts and the shorts have Peanuts written across the back. Just for the record, I don't even like the Peanuts, I just like those PJs. I also have about 3 pairs of cloud PJs because I love clouds.

Have you ever ate a whole can of whip cream?
No. I rarely eat whip cream at all.

Who is in your avatar and why did you pick it?

Do you play a lot of video games? If so what is your favorite?

What character in fiction do you think you are most like and why?

Where in the house is the computer you post on?

What is currently the wallpaper on your computer?

Would you rather go to an art gallery or a history museum?

Who is in your avatar and why did you pick it?
Jack and young Syd from a recent ep of Alias. I made it myself because I love Jack & Syd and I adore that piano scene.

Do you play a lot of video games? If so what is your favorite?
No video games whatsoever. And I am thankful for that because otherwise my grades would really suck.

What character in fiction do you think you are most like and why?
That's a really hard one. I'm going to have to go with Monica Devon from Janet Tashjian's Multiple Choice b/c she's an obsessive-compulsive perfectionist like me. But there are probably many others.

Where in the house is the computer you post on?
I post on two computers. The one that belongs to my sister and me is upstairs in the extra bedroom. The family computer is downstairs in the guest room. I made the decision to use my laptop for work only, so I don't have internet access on it at all.

What is currently the wallpaper on your computer?
I'm on the upstairs computer where the wallpaper has Jack and Irina from Alias because Lena Olin is currently gueststarring on the show again. My other computers have Nathan and Haley from OTH and Emilie de Ravin on them. They were all made by other people. I never use my own wallpapers even though I always use my own avatars, for some reason.

Would you rather go to an art gallery or a history museum?
I hate history and love art more than anything else in the world. You can probably figure out the answer from that.

Now that 4 days have passed and everyone knows more than they probably ever wanted to know about me, I guess it's time to pass the baton. No one's really posted though, so there isn't much to choose from. I'll try to PM someone later on today though.

ETA: Okay, quarterley has agreed to go next. Post your questions. I will try to think of some of my own.

Strongest strength - I'm aggressive and I don't back off. Grrr....

One person....sorta.

I can't play instruments.

I used to slam on piano keys all the time when I was a kid making noise pretending I was actually playing a song.

Imaginary friend? Err...no.

A million bucks! House. Car. Laptop. Vacation. Shopping.

Norm = Norman

Librarian/Bookstore owner. I am serious.

I am not into any particular genre as long as the song appeals to me.

Squirrel. The tail is pretty.

I remember useless stuff. Like the colour of tablecloths a particular restaurant used when I was 9.
