1. You're sitting in the garden and notice a creepy angel statue...that moves. DEAR GOD, IT'S A WEEPING ANGEL. There's no way out--it's going to eat you up...Where/When do you hope it transports you?
1920's Paris. Paris, because it is the most beautiful and lovely city in the world, to me.
1920's because I love the clothes and hairstyle. And 1920's Paris, because it is the time and place where most big names of literature that I admire are gathered together, so it would be impossible not to bump into one.
I might also, on occasion, cross the channel to England.
And try to find another Angel about ten years later, I suppose :s
2. What are the five best things about your hometown/area?
You know, I though about this for an absurdly long time. The problem is, I don't like Belgium. But I'll try. So, to be clear, I live in Flanders, near to Antwerp, which is where I go to school.
1) It's home. I know my way around, I know the language, I feel at home here.
2) It's not too overcrowded. Going to Oxford Street in London made appreciate the calm of our shopping streets.
3) There is a lovely alternate culture circuit. Which sounds pompous :o. I just love the Belgian experimental theater, and arthouse cinema in general. And there is a lot of that in Antwerp and Mechelen.
4) Antwerp has a great cafe with the best hot cocoa. And a rather lovely cocktailbar just two minutes from it. And several other lovely, hidden places.
5) Belgium is so small . Which is nice, because you can go everywhere really quickly. I've been to every part of it. I would feel so weird living in the US, where you have to take a plane to move across the country.
3. If you could pick any fictional character to come to life and be your best friend, who would it be?
Veronica Mars. She's smart and sassy, and would totally kick anyone's ass if I asked her to. Also, she'd bring Logan Echolls who is still one of my favourite characters EVER.
4. What do you want to be when you grow up?
Oh, I don't know. Happy? That's such a stupid answer.
I suppose career-wise, I want to do a job that really motivates me. Like directing plays, writing reviews,... Any job that involves my current studies in some way would be great, actually.
5. What is your favoritest favorite poem? (And if you're not a poetry person, how about favorite book?)
Poem: probably "i carry your heart with me" by ee cummings
I also have a special affection for "Annabel Lee" by EA Poe, because it's the only poem I know by heart.
Book: still 'The Ruby in the Smoke" by Philip Pullman.
