[FreedomsBullets]

Name: Juli
Where are you from: I've lived all over. I was born in Long Beach, spent my elementary years outside of Portland, OR, and my teen years in Carmel and Avon, IN. Right now I'm living in KS.
Prequel or Original Trilogy: OT is awesome in every way, but I enjoy the PT too.
Favorite Star Wars Character: Boba Fett
Do you like the EU (Expanded Universe): Of course! Maybe a little too much.
Light or Darkside: We decided what I should answer for this in the last thread, but I can't remember. Was it gray? Or maybe I said gray and you guys said "Mando"...
Fav Star Wars movie: RotJ
Fav Non-Star Wars movie: Too many to count. At the moment I'm really feeling Watchmen.
Fav music group (All time or at the moment): All time is Led Zeppelin. At the moment it's all about The Raconteurs. They've got a song called "Broken Boy Soldier" that I swear is about the clone troopers. Broken Boy Soldier
What do you do with your free time: Read mostly, and I watch a lot of movies and TV on DVD. Occasionally I write and do homework. I don't do the stuff I should be doing, at any rate.
Geekiest Star Wars thing you've ever done: I can't think of anything too geeky. A week or two ago a guy came into the Wal-Mart where I work part-time in full stormtrooper garb. I followed him until a customer stopped me in hardware, and then I lost sight of him. I never saw him buy anything though, I think he was just there to wear the costume in public. A teenage boy about 14 was with him, and I'm thinking he might have wanted to embarrass his son too.

Fav music group (All time or at the moment): Jewel, No Doubt, Sheryl Crow, Matchbox 20.

So how stoked are you for the No Doubt reunion?

OMG! SO effing excited
I am seeing them Friday night! Paramore is opening.

Sheida, Luke is a great catch. Too bad he does exist.
I love the smilies too.


Gabriela and Jenny

Jenny, ooh Greece. Beautiful country

If anyone mocks you you could always say you were humoring him. Whose idea was it?

I am seeing them Friday night! Paramore is opening.

Paramore is really good live, judging from the number of tours they've been on I think that's all they do. You'll have to let me know how No Doubt is. I like a lot of their music, but I don't think I'll have the money to see them on their reunion.

[BehrItAll]

I saw No Doubt years ago during their Rock Steady tour. They rock! So so good.
Good to hear Paramore is good live. I only know the 2 Twilight soundtrack songs but am so excited to see them too.

[FreedomsBullets]

They got this song, I wanna say it's called Misery, that was their first hit. It's pretty good.

[broken|smile]

Its called Misery Business Ive heard a few of Paramores song, they're pretty cool and I No Doubt

Juli - I dont think we're all that fond of Americans right now they'll think they're encrypted with secret messages on how to start riots but thanks, would have been awesome if you could
A dating website? do those deliver here

[FreedomsBullets]

Sheida, I say this honestly hon, I think that Iranians know how to protest MUCH better than Americans.
And good point on the dating website. Maybe someday.

[broken|smile]
