She has a pet Cirrus, Svehnyldia, who seems to be an avid gurgler at the moment...
Fav Colours There's this really nice variation of blue, like the colours on my main page; I like navy blue, grey blue, Leafs/Jays blue, black, grey...
Neopets I currently have one pet that's mine, and mine only. It's a blue Flotsam, named Gwen (for short).

Fav Books I read as often as I can, but I have a tendency to stick to favourite authors and genres.
Authors that I like include Michael Crichton (creator of ER!), Robert J. Sawyer, John Grisham, Sue Grafton (Alphabet Mystery Series featuring Kinsey Millhone), Echo Heron (reality-based novels about nurses)...
Genres include sci-fi, what they call "medical thrillers", mystery, and I suppose the action-packed ones. What I can't stand reading are fantasy novels. Ugh.
Sports Teams Watching sports on tv makes me...scream. Just a bit... T.O. Blue Jays, T.O. Raptors, and let's just say three words. GO LEAFS GO.
TV ER, of course. I like Whose Line is it Anyway? They have their moments. TLC shows are mostly good. I will watch and laugh at episodes of The Simpsons. Sometimes I catch episodes of Saturday Night Live; There's a new The Weakest Link thing, and I watch it noncommittally. Iron Chef is always good, as is East Meets West. And weren't Degrassi J.H. and Degrassi High cool? Then there's the chinese series on some digital channel 601. No matter how bad the show may be, I'll still sit on the couch and watch it as I eat. Ugh...
Oh, oh, there are these two guys who are SO funny and cool! On TVO Crawlspace, there's this guy Phil, he's SO FUNNY. And on YTV's The Zone, Pat is SO FUNNY, too. He speaks in monotone; whoever does that cracks me up. SNL's Jimmy Fallon is SO FUNNY, too!
Movies I have to admit, I don't get out much. I also don't watch movies in theatres much. What do you think Pay Per View channels are there for? But I have watched movies on tv and on VHS. I love The Matrix, It's a Mad, Mad, Mad, (Mad?) World, To Kill a Mockingbird (with Gregory Peck), The Sound of Music, Mulan (Disney version)...Gee. My mind hit a blank. Oh, The Perfect Storm was sad...good, but sad. I read Out of Sight by Elmore Leonard before I watched the movie on tv, but the movie was alright. It did the novel justice, I suppose. Apollo 13 was ok. And I'm proud to say that I have NOT watched Titanic. And I will not. Never!!
Fav Actors/Actresses Being a big fan of ER, I like Julianna Margulies and George Clooney, Noah Wyle is cool, too! The Hong Kong actress I like is Flora Chan...There's also that girl from Huan Zhu Ge Ge...
Car? That's an easy one. JEEP CHEROKEE. A hunter green Jeep Cherokee. I wonder if they'll still manufacture them by the time I can buy my own car?
NIKE or Adidas? NIKE, of course. There isn't a time when I'm comfortable wearing a-d-i-d-a-s stuff...
Fav Subjects Science, Math, Music (Band)...There isn't much. My courses next year are all exam courses. Ugh.
Aspiration Well, for one thing, I'd like to get into a university of my liking, and graduate, then go into med school, graduate, and work as a physician in either the ER, Pediatrics, or Pediatrics ER. Hopefully all this can be achieved in Canada! However, there are many jobs in the medical field which I will be satisfied with...
But for now, it's study, study, study, for me!
Animals Weird question? Right. I like the giant panda, and the koala. Dolphins are nice. Um...
Actually, you know what? You're right, this is a weird question...
Japanese Cartoon Characters Yeah, you know those colourful characters that decorate pencilcases, backpacks, stationery, umbrellas, bags, etc. everywhere? Like the infamous Hello Kitty and whatnot. Well, my favourite may not be as well known as the aforementioned Kitty.
I like Ultraman, who originated in Japan, and used to be on a technicolour tv series of some sort (yay technicolour). I like that character, as well as his variation, of a cartoonier appearance. It's shrunken down, looks like a baby version, and like the older one, has big round yellow eyes. In fact, let's see if I can make him appear below.......(go, mad html skills...)
yes, there he is! Isn't he so adorable!? I don't coo at many things, but the baby ultraman is definitely one that gets to me!
Also, I like KeroKeroKeroppi (a frog), and Pochacco (a dog). Oh how conveniently that rhymes. I would put up pics of these two, but I don't like them as much as I like Ultraman. Ah, so he's pixelated. Who cares? He's just as cute. And here, he's slightly bigger. Yay.
Sports Not to be conufsed with Sports I Watch...Well, I'm not extremely active, come to think of it. I have rollerblades, but I don't use them too often. I'm a loser; I take the bus. I have a bike, and I use it, to some extent. I'm a loser; I get a ride. I play some tennis, I am able to play volleyball and basketball, I know two ways to catch a frisbee. I can kick a ball, and I can catch with a baseball glove. But I dislike playing baseball.
You know what's really effective in helping me keep my 5'7" 110 lb frame (ha, like that's really fit)? Skipping, and running on the spot. Well, along with eating right, but that's another story. I skip. I do. You can laugh all you want right now I don't care. Skipping at 6 in the morning in the kitchen is fun.
Video/Computer Games Well, I have to admit, I'm limited in my choice of computer games. Is anyone up for:
Ah, didn't think so. I actually play Tetris a lot. It's fun, really. Take my word for it.
Video Games, however, offer me a larger selection. I have SNES, and I'd just like to say that Mario Kart is the best. Yoshi rocks, and no one can beat me at that game, especially racing in Koopa Beach. I have N64, too, and I love Lego Racers. My car isn't too fast, which means it takes more skill from me to win. Which is exactly what I do.
I have Mario Tennis, too, among other games, and it's so fun! Again, I use Yoshi, just because. He's already a Star Player!
Thanks to me. But I have just one thing to say about electronic games. RACING GAMES RULE.
Arts and Crafts I like origami, and I've made 1000+ paper cranes. I make lucky stars; have you seen those lychee jelly containers? The big ones? Well, I'm on my way to making enough stars to fill one of those up. Yup. I've got a lot of folding to do. I also like paper cutting, a traditional Chinese and Japanese art. I've done a few, and I...uh...chipped the tip of my surgical scalpel blade off. I think it's embedded somewhere in the living room carpet...
I also draw. I'm not that great at it, in my opinion, but I like doing it.
ICQ Number Not that you'd actually want to, but I can be contacted via ICQ, UIN 46848174.
