Smoking, Meme
Look at the icon
neery made for me! Lol!! (all bandslash lovers who are reading this, please don't be insulted. It's more or less an in-joke... ;) ).
I was just reminded why I don't smoke. I met a friend at uni whom I hadn't seen in a while. We went for a cup of coffee, and she told me that she was going home to dump her boyfriend who she had been together with for more than five years, and that at the moment, her life tended to suck most of the time. I noticed that she had picked up smoking again, and so I had a cigarette with her - I don't know why, it just seemed like the right thing to do to make her feel a little better. Sort of a feels-like-the-end-of-the-world-but-we're-laughing-anyway thing.
My last cigarette before this one I had in May 2004. I'd forgotten how awful they taste. I'm still coughing ;P.
Anyway, I has a meme! Which I stole from
imagi_nation22 and happen to think is a lot of fun.
Comment, and I will comment back with a picture of the fictional character that most reminds me of you.

David Tennant's Doctor reminds me of you, because he's funny, smart, never boring and so down-to-earth about his emo that I can't do anything but admire him for it :).

It's weird, isn't it, how certain moments feel like smoking situations, even when you don't smoke?

Elizabeth Swann from PotC. She's smart, self-confident and stands by her principles while not being rigid :).
no subject
I saw her in Atonement the other week and she was amazing, damn her. Thank you very much, very flattering.

oh, and about the ciggies - well, I only smoke when I'm getting drunk, but I have to admit, right now I wouldn't say no to one. I had a shitty day. (literally - pipes clogged AGAIN) and I'm bloody tired and I have to go to work in a minute.
*stops whining*
Sorry.
BUT 'JEFFREY' rocks sooooo much. Every slasher should get a free copy. It's a slasher's wet dream! Gotta get it to you soon! :-)

Frannie from Due South. I hope you won't kill me for that, lol. Notice that I didn't pick nutty "Vault" Frannie, but cool, awesome CotW Frannie. She reminds me of you because she's smart, never broing, a little bit crazy, runs with her ideas with a lot of enthusiasm and has a HUGE crush on Fraser ;).

I think Franny fits me pretty well. Especially when she can't remember the correct terms for stuff.
THANK YOU SO MUCH!!
*will do hers in a minute* :-)

I also quit smoking in May of 2004. I occasionally have a smoke when I'm drinking now (I didn't for the first two and a half years that I quit), but it would make me sick if I did it sober.
no subject
Took me a while to find a character that fit you! Dean Winchester from Supernatural. He has this rough tough guy exterior that can shock and baffle people, but deep down in his heart, he's this sweet guy who simply loves his brother above everything else and hates any violence and injustice ;).

Urgh smoking...loads of people do it here at uni and I hate the way you're clothes always reek of the smoke after they've gone. Plus I always end up coughing and getting the dirty 'stop trying to guilt us into putting it out' look which annoys me lol
no subject
You remind me of Trip! Because you're optimistic, funny and a sweet person. And love Malcolm, lol ;D.
no subject
Also while I'm thinking about it your dr who layout/icon thing is so cute! lol :D

So who do I remind you of?
no subject
Rodney reminds me of you, because he's not really a people person, and very, very pragmatic in his way of handling every-day life, but at the same time he believes in the good in people - in his own special way ;).
You're not as awkward as him, though ;).

You know, I just realized, part of my fascination with Dexter is that he sometimes reminds me of myself, too. Not the whole serial-killing thing, but the whole "faking it around the normals" thing. I can make strangers think that I am sooo charming when I make the effort, but most of it is completely fake and I'm secretly bored out of my mind. Unlike him, I don't usually bother making the effort, though. (See: operation find friends among the normals at uni, spectacular failure ;)
no subject
I can sympathize with this only in so far that I try to fake around the normals but usually fail miserably ;P.
spectacular failure
Not quite! You found me! Lol ;). I know what you mean, though.

John Crichton from Farscape. Since I've only ever seen one episode of that show, I don't know him very well, but he seems like a very nice and interesting person who's more than worth getting to know :).
no subject
On a shallow note: he's cute, too!
no subject
:D I'm sure I will. I hope you will *gg*.
he's cute, too
Yes he is :D. I saw him in the late seasons of SG-1. He is very pretty ;D.
no subject
Oh, I will, I already know you are nice from what you wrote about episodes and about you telling Wih to tell me good luck with my sucky RL!! *hugs*

Smoking was always the one bad habit I had enough self-discipline not to start with. I get addicted to stuff so easily, I don't think I'd ever be able to quit, so I figured I should probably try not to start at all ;).
no subject
btw, looking at the other posts here has piqued my interest, i know we don't really know each other well, but feel free to take a stab at a character.
no subject
John Carter from Emergency Room reminds me of you. Yes, for one thing because of the obvious reason ;). But also because he takes responsibility seriously without getting cocky about it and because he's a very nice person and good to talk to :).
no subject
I start my Emergency rotation in a couple of weeks. Here's hoping this gives me an edge. :)
