10 Things I Wish I Could Say To Ten People:
[There is rarely something a Sagittarius cannot/should not be able to say to anyone, but here are the rare exceptions. Most often regarding women I could/can not approach.]
1)Walt Disney -- (presently or otherwise) Did you honestly intend for the female leads of your works to be so provocative and enticing to men or am I just seeing things? Why the flirtatious eyes? Was that some sort of sick little joke on the kids who are supposed to look up to these films as childhood delights while their fathers and other single men oogle the ladies in a different way like Barbie dolls were initially intended(a sexual toy/play thing)? And, what do you truly think of what has become of your "kingdom"?
2)Angelina Jolie – (presently) You are a very intriguing young woman. Had I known you much sooner before all the "crap" changed you and known we were so compatible(if Brad Pitt is genuinely compatible), I would love to have had the opportunity to romance you. [But, then again, what do I know? I DO know I don't like tattoos very much.]
3)Kate Beckinsale -- (presently) It seems hard to find anything about you that is NOT attractive. Your rabbit teeth. Your flowing brown hair. Your intoxicating accent. In another life and time, I would like to get to know you better and the chance to be your man:P
4)Fann Wong(Wong Fann) -- (at one time) You are simply breath-taking and talented. Sing me a song, and I am yours(even if I don't like the way you sing the song or the song itself with some exceptions). Given the opportunity, I would like to get to know you better and the chance to be your man:P
5)Ming Na Wen -- (at one time) You are exquisitely attractive and appealing. You seem to be the ideal blend of Asian and American culture, making you very easy with which to talk with the exception of my nerves from just looking at you. Given the opportunity, I would like to get to know you better and the chance to be your man:P
6)Debra Messing -- (at one time) Of all the redheads in the world, I think I like you best. Don't tell me that hair color is fake. It would devastate me and deny me the desire for the opportunity to be your man:P [I hope it's okay that I can share you with Angelina, Kate, Fann and Ming Na:P]
7)Jessica Alba -- (at one time) Despite astrological differences, you are a very intriguing young woman with a heart-warming charm, personality and--of course--an extremely lovely face. Given the opportunity, I would love to romance you and have the chance to be your man. [And, have you ever considered the concept of a harem?:P]
8)Miss C(My sixth grade teacher, before her marriage) -- (presently) When I was in your class, I thought you were HOT. And, when you complimented me on my Fear story and saved it for later classes, I was not only honored but extremely infatuated and inspired to keep writing:P
9)B (my first best female friend and love interest from the age of 4) -- (presently) We didn't end on good terms. I'm sorry I let you go so easily and let you get involved with drugs and not-so-nice guys. Perhaps it was fate. But, it is a fate I wish I could take back. We may not have been ideal for each other. But, there isn't a year that goes by now that I don't remember what we had and what could have been had I not(or we not) repeatedly told our peers that we were just friends or even less. My "wonder years". You were my Wendy Cooper. You were the first light of my life, and I miss that.
10)Anyone who has ever denied or will ever deny me the chance to work with them when I desire to do so for whatever reason and make me feel like a child begging something infantile of his parents which they are not --
(at any time) You have NO idea what talent and potential you are neglecting. I do not often look upon myself with esteem, but in this case I am furious at your lack of comprehension and understanding. Perhaps it was merely a miscommunication. But, one day I hope you can look back and see what a damn fool you were for rejecting me.
9 Things about Me:
1)I presently find it difficult to love unconditionally and have little faith in finding such love with anyone in the world of which I am forced to live when I see so many divorces, abusive situations(including sex and/or drugs) and single mothers.
2)I may not be a vocally religious person--and currently question the church system terribly--but I do have my beliefs and try to be open to others within personal reason. I would like to think I am making an effort to bring more people together rather than break them into groups who cannot intermingle simply because of their chosen or birth-given religion.
3)I favor the colors of fall/autumn(green, red, brown, and the occasional orange/yellow) as well as greys(in clothing) like gunmetal/hematite
4)I am a great "thinker" who likes to think outside the box yet tends to view others' ideas(however wild or accurate they may be) with scrutiny(comes from my mother sadly). I put considerably more thought into just about everything I do than just about anyone I know. That should be obvious(particularly with the time I spent on this list:P).
5)I am a cartoon(and movie) fanatic and look at them with the same scrutiny move critics give their reviews(without the verbose vocabulary). I am "mad" about such "American" shows as: Thundercats, Silverhawks, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Mighty Max, Swat Kats and Captain Simian and the Space Monkeys. I also like such foreign works as: Cutey Honey(the early 90s version looks the best), Whisper in the Wind/The Cat Returns(sort of sequential), Persepolis and Urusei Yatsura(translation: Those Obnoxious Aliens). [Not familiar? You should check them out.]
6)I dread and avoid spicy foods. Not that I might not like them if they had good flavor, but I can't handle them. Like flaming torches jabbed into my chest or down my throat.
7)I love the idea of travel but often do not favor the "details". It is difficult for me to deal with some things like sleeping in a "bed" that is not my own. I am not afraid of but do not enjoy airplane travel nor long car trips which numb the crap out of my bum. I am not a fan of Port-O-Johns:P
8)I love WARM pleasant/mild weather. I do NOT like icy, cold, snowy winters(except for the Christmas holiday because the songs written for that time seem driven by "winter" weather) nor scorching hot summers(fair skin). Unfortunately, where I presently live in the Spring, I suffer allergies.
9)I like my alone time when I need to work on something that requires my creative mind. [It is very difficult to complete a project or drawing with someone over my shoulder.] But, I dread the idea of spending too much time alone. [Even a whole day alone with just the sounds of the "house" or nature around me can become unnerving.]
10)I seem to recall making a list of at least 20 details such as this already:) You might look for that.
8 Ways To Win And Keep My Friendship:
1)Make the first move. Don't be afraid because I already AM afraid:P Show me your initiative, and(if I like it) I will likely indulge you at least for a day(if not more).
2)Have common interests and find clever/nice ways of sharing them. [In my case: Astrology, Art, Cartoons/TV(though not lately)/Movies, video games(non-military or sports), Travel/Foreign Cultures, etc.] The basis of any good, lasting relationship(friendship or otherwise) includes both good communication and common interests.
3)Respect my opinion, but you don't have to always agree with it. [And, feel free to express your differences when they arise. I HATE when people either refuse to "see" my opinion as a possibility or feel they need to agree with everything I say/be nice out of fear I might stop talking to them.]
4)DON'T lie to me. If you can prove yourself to be an honest person, I have no reason or compulsion to ever lie myself. And, I hate to lie or hide my true feelings/the truth.
5)Understand me. If I know you get what I am saying and realize you are making an effort(and I can trust you), I may just share everything with you:P
6)DON'T try to bribe or coerce me with THINGS. No toy, treat or trophy is going to change how I look at you on its own. I'm not a woman who is going to tear up and forgive you the moment you hand me a bunch of flowers. It is the person that matters more than any gift given to me. This world is already full of wasted/wasteful things. Good friends and love are much harder to find/keep.
7)Show and prove to me that you care for me and that you will not change/disappear tomorrow. [For guys, don't think that caring makes you gay. Touching me physically is another story:P Which brings me to the last detail, I guess...]
8)DON'T touch me til I know or trust you better. And, if you feel the need, start small and work your way up the chain. A pat on the back, then a handshake, THEN a hug. Read my face before and after. [Anything beyond exceeds friendship level, regardless of woman or man.]
7 Things That Cross My Mind:
1)Will I make it through tomorrow/next week/next year alive and relatively happy/content with myself?
2)Will I (finally) find true, eternal love which I can share with that person(or those people:P) and not simply wish or ponder inside my own head?
3)Will I ever get to see the parts of the world I want before they are destroyed or defaced(not to mention before I am dead)?
4)What can I do to wow the world and make a great impression that will be forever remembered in a positive light?
5)Where do all the dead calculators go?:P just kidding(any fellow Red Dwarf fans?:P)
What am I going to (be able to) eat today/this week?
6)Why does the world need money? [Why can't we work out a better system of helping each other and less wasteful spending by now?]
7)Will I look/be okay with a shaved head?
6 People Who Mean A Lot to Me:
[Tough one considering I seem to be fending for/defending myself so often and trying to be self-sufficient around others who say things like "Who needs them?", "Men/Women suck!" or "People are stupid jerks!".]
1)"Puddin", my current closest conception of a best friend
2)God/"the higher power" that reigns over this existence in whatever way he/she/it may without the biases/conditions of man.
3)My family(despite our differences and many repeat difficulties) [I can't simply pick one member(of the "immediate") over another or exclude anyone.]
4)G, my first online (foreign) connection who inspired me(and renewed my inspiration) to chase a number of things including my interests of world travel/cultural immersion, astrology, music and art. [Even though we fell apart and I regret not having a better opportunity to meet/be with her.]
5)A, another foreign contact online who--though she is solely responsible for "unleashing the tiger within" which dwells in so many people of this world--has given me hope in finding the beauty that I seek. She is quite possibly the most attractive person in the world who has "given me the time of day" and made an effort(in her own crazy fashion) to stay close to me. [Though, that has fairly well fallen apart over time. But, the torch of hope remains alive.]
6)Jack Kirby(not in a deeply personal way), a pretty darn good comic book artist who was mimicked in another comic book in such a way that it set off a "Big Bang" in me which is responsible for many of my inspirations/imaginative ideas.
5 Things I Can't Live Without (Tangible Not People):
[Another difficult one as I am trying to be a person who sees no object that he cannot live without. Disaster strikes when you least desire to face it. And, any THING we hold dear can easily be destroyed and taken from us. People are far more precious. But, let's consider these possibilities...]
My bed(or at least one I am comfortable with)
Pizza(a "common pleasure" or luxury which I would easily substitute with the INtangible HOPE)
Fresh water/Air
Trees/Nature
Sunshine
4 Things My Friends Would Say About Me:
[On the "rare" occasion I have a genuine friend whose word I can believe.]
I truly care(or at least try).
I am not a conformist and can be a tad difficult to control:P
I give more than I take(usually).
I am quite(although others would use the word "really" instead of "quite") amusing and imaginative/creative:)
3 Shows I watch faithfully:
The Simpsons(though such a genius and well-written show can often enough do something completely stupid and turn me off)
Seinfeld(though I slowly lose my faith because the comedy loses its charm and realize the sexual content is not in my best interest)
Globe Trekker(though I easily grow envious and depressed seeing others travelling care free and indulging themselves)
2 Things I Want To Do Before I die:
Travel the world(at least the parts I have come to like and feel are safe)
Make history in a positive way people will look back on and say "That 'brainstormer' sure made a difference, and I can say he has inspired me to live a better life."
1 Confession:
I stole a pack of candy cigarettes from a grocery store when I was a wee one because, at the time, it was the cool thing to have:P Too bad they were not the right kind(the bubble gum ones that released powder when you blew into them). But, luckily I did not pick up the actual bad habit of smoking REAL cigarettes/cigars.
And, now, for random listening pleasure...
Here is a song which came to mind when I first saw this "challenge".
("Straight to Number One" by Touch and Go)
