*wink*

you are a:
chaotic good elf bard thief
follower of hanali cenanil

alignment:
Chaotic Good characters are independent types with a strong belief in the value of goodness. They have little use for governments and other forces of order, and will generally do their own things, without heed to such groups.
race:
Elves are the eldest of all races, although they are generally a bit smaller than humans. They are generally well-cultured, artistic, easy-going, and because of their long lives, unconcerned with day-to-day activities that other races frequently concern themselves with. Elves are, effectively, immortal, although they can be killed. After a thousand years or so, they simply pass on to the next plane of existance.
primary class:
Bards are the entertainers. They sing, dance, and play instruments to make other people happy, and, frequently, make money. They also tend to dabble in magic a bit.
secondary class:
Thieves are the most roguish of the classes. They are sneaky and nimble-fingered, and have skills with traps and locks. While not all use these skills for burglary, that is a common occupation of this class.
deity:
Hanali Cenanil is the Chaotic Good elven goddess of love, beauty, and art. She is also known as the Heart of Gold and Lady Goldheart. Her followers delight in creation and youth, and work to spread happiness, love, and beauty. Their preferred weapon is the dagger.

slytherin gemini
Ever heard the phrase "snake-tongued?" It must have been invented to describe a Slytherin Gemini. (This doesn't refer to the Parseltongue gift, either, although the few Slytherin wizards who exhibited it have had a disproportionate number of Geminis in their midst.)
Slytherin Geminis have the dubious gift of being able to lay the blarney on thick, and be believed. This is due to both their imaginative mental agility and to their skill with words. Of course, not all Slytherin Geminis are liars - but it is probably advisable to get all sides of the story if you hear interesting gossip from one of these wizards.
Slytherins born under the sign of Gemini are also naturally skilled at any magical work which involves sleight of hand or incantations. They are less determined and aggressive than the average Slytherin, though, save perhaps in a field that involves debate. You will find far more of them chatting in the common room or looking up arcane lore in the library than on the Quidditch field or in a dueling match, with the exception of Quidditch Seekers: the sharp eyesight and quick reflexes associated with Gemini are good traits for a Seeker to have.

gryffindor gemini
You'll need track shoes to keep up with these Geminis. They have so much energy that they exhaust nearly everyone, save other Gryffindor Geminis. In class, they love to get into debates with the professor. Out of class, they love to get into trouble. These Gryffindor Geminis are as easily stirred by romantic dreams and noble causes as any other Gryffindors, although their involvement is more mental than practical - they lack the fortitude for battle and are best left passing propaganda to the real warriors. Expect a large number of them to work for the Daily Prophet after graduation.

Why two? Well, I always get sorted into either Gryffindor or Slytherin. Apparently, I'm a creature of extremes. But you knew that.

I've been thinking, but it made my head hurt. So I stopped doing it. (Bwah-ha, laugh at the bad joke.)
Anyway, life continues, and for the moment it doesn't suck. I'm going to just meander along and hope none of this is going to be on the test. I haven't been taking notes.
I was watching Adult Swim last night, and interchanging it with that run of late-night cartoons that Comedy Central does on Sunday night. It's pretty cool, all in all; plenty of old-school cartoon flava. And hey - it's no less realistic than most of the schmutz that winds up on the daily news.

Bickety bam! Here's Eileen! I'm pretty proud of myself, I got my Internet Bumper Stickers to pop-up in a new window. WITHOUT help, I might add. Who rocks? I'll give you a hint: me.
So in addition to my general bitchin' attitude and my newfound status as HTML boss-child, it's starting to warm up. Eileen is pleased. I don't see how I could reasonably do anything other than treat myself to an afternoon of pizza, sci-fi, and snickering at preppies. w00t!

You know what really boils my noodle? This weather. I mean, I shouldn't be glad - nay, euphoric - when it climbs to thirty-five degrees. In fact, I can't remember the last time I was actually pleased that it was warm enough to snow.
So of course, over the weekend, when I didn't need to set foot outside, it was almost forty degrees. And now that I'm trudging around Beacon Hill with seven hundred and three books, it's eighteen degrees (not including windchill). Not to constantly harp on the weather, but it friggin' sucks.
So the next pile of clothing that yammers at me about how they adore cold weather is going to get their ass severely beaten, I guess is my point here. Eileen out.

Here's a few more. Because... hey... I love ya.

my animal spirit is a coyote
According to shamanistic wisdom, coyotes are the animal world's trickster. Coyote people have a way with words, and a unique way of seeing the world. Never ones to take things at face value, coyote people question authority with sly jokes. Luckily, their wit usually keeps them out of serious trouble. Coyote people often prefer to have a few close friendships instead of lots of casual ones. If you are true to type, you probably have a wry sense of humor and are the first to weigh in with a sarcastic joke. People who don't know you well may not get your sense of humor, which may have gotten you into trouble here or there... unless you used that old Coyote charm to get out of it...

my ayurvedic dosha is vata
Ayurvedic principles hold that Vatas are creative, abstract, restless and talkative. They question everything, sometimes to the point of over-analysis. They also learn things quickly, but may not always remember what they have learned afterwards. They tend to take on lots of tasks at once and as a result sometimes have bursts of anxiety or nervous energy. Vatas may find it hard to ground themselves, and can end up feeling spacey, light-headed and fuzzy. Vatas can also be very free with cash and may find it hard to save money. They tend to avoid confrontation.

my chinese element is fire
Your dominant element is fire. The ancient Yin-Yang scholars saw fire types as adventure-seekers who like constant change. Do you love a good party--and sometimes getting into a little trouble? Fire people have a way with words and friends enjoy listening to their stories nearly as much as they enjoy telling them. Fire people get bored easily, but their artistic side helps keep things in flux. The energy and charm of fire types may make it hard not to like them, but look out for those mood swings!
Fire burns with a bright and hot flame and is related to passion and enthusiasm. Joy is the dominant feature of the elemental energy of fire. Fire helps us see the beauty of life and to enjoy living. Fire burns brightly and can spring up quickly...but it can burn out just as fast. The fire element gets us excited over things that are worth it but allows us to let go. Structures with sharp edges and pointed features bring out the best qualities of fire. A hot climate is the best for fire as it helps the flame to burn strong. The color that corresponds to fire is red. Fire types like to eat bitter food such as grapefruits.

my color is red
Aye, caliente! You're a fiery red! According to color psychology, you're independent, dominant and feisty, almost always getting your way. If you've got something to say, you say it. Your outspoken and sometimes aggressive approach to situations can make you a bit intimidating, but your friends seem to love you because of your honesty and loyalty. People may disagree with you on your views and the ways you express them, but you don't let that stop you from letting the world know what's on your mind!

The mind-reading, short-tempered, red-haired German beauty! You are Schuldig, Mr. Popularity Extraordinare! You have so much potential to be a charming, witty, and alluring person! However, you delight in screwing other people over. This is all because it's all within your power. You can read minds, make people do things they don't want to do... Telephathy and mind control is your strength and downfall... besides your impulsiveness and short temper. You have a car, in which to drive Farfarello around, and have the most annoying seiyuu alive! Your weiß counter is Youji, and unlike HIM, you are fashionable to some degree... all of this making YOU probably the most drooled-over Schwarz member. Which you deserve to be, because Farfie and Nagi are annoying as hell.
What member of Schwarz are you?

Eileen's getting ready to take some online quizzes! After all, that's like a blog tradition, right? I gotta fill up at least one entry with pointless (but adorable) graphics that relate my personality to an anime character or an ice cream flavor. Rock my world, Internet!
Oh, Shann's finally getting off her lazy can and doing some layouts (like this one, featuring the oh-so-cool Don Quixote and Sancho Panza), so you can expect to see some new stuff in the future, I guess. She's also redoing Kuro-P, at my request - and doing a Brad Crawford layout! Not at my request, but damn cool just the same!
So look for those quizzes probably this evening. Eileen out, yo.
