Eleven facts about myself. Here we go.

1. My favorite actor is Hugh Jackman. 

2. All except one of my celebrity crushes is over thirty.

3. I love to read, though I am not a great reader and take delight in many things.

4. I delight in anything ridiculous.

5. I tend to speak in book and movie quotes. Kudos to you if you got the last two references. 

6. I have a peculiar habit of playing the devil's advocate for villains in both fictional and the real world.

7. I love Russia.

8. I love history, especially modern history.

9. The 50's and the 80's are, in my opinion, the best things culturally that ever happened.

10. Billy Joel is one of my favorite singers.

11. I am determined that when  get married, my first boy will be named Jack Atticus.

Here are the questions that Julia asked me:

1. If you were a demigod from the Percy Jackson series, who would you be the child of and why? I think that I would most definitely be Hermes' daughter, because he's the tricksy God of jokes and fun and loves mortals. I mean, I haven't read Percy Jackson but I don't trust online quizzes and I know about the gods from mythology and stuff. 
2. Would you rather date Khan from Star Trek: Into Darkness or Voldemort, from Harry Potter? Khan. Absolutely Khan.
3. What's your favorite Shakespeare play? Much Ado About Nothing.
4. What fictional character do you most relate to? Either Amy from Little Women or Catherine Morland from Northanger Abbey. 
5. Which do you prefer, skirts or dresses? Depends on the skirt and dress. 
6. What's your favorite motivational song? Don't Stop Believin'' by Journey
7. Do you prefer a Kindle or a book? Book
8. Do you think #7 is a big deal? Absolutely. I hate Kindles, because everything is turning electronic and I think that when we cease to hold a real book, and turn pages and feel how thick it is and how real, then we've lost a lot. Read Fahrenheit 451 and you'll see where I get such strong sentiments. 
9. Would you rather turn into a turtle for a month or a panda? Turtle. 
10. Do you prefer C. S. Lewis or J. R. R. Tolkien? J.R.R. Tolkien, though I am very Fond of Lewis as well.
11. Do you prefer drawing or writing? Writing, because I am half decent-ish at it and I can't draw worth a lick. 

Now I don't know 9 people who blog, so I'll just do the one person who hasn't already been nominated that I think shoulder be. I nominate:

3. If a random stranger handed you one million dollars, what would you do?
