Some random questions...

Post by Neocridders »

I don't know. I wanted to post one thread for each questions, but after thinking of what my questions were... I thought it best to put them all in a little 'questionaire' type thing...

Feel free to fill out, or not fill out. Chat about the questions if you want. I really don't care >.>
Just curious.

Do watch tv?:
What are your favorite shows to watch if you watch TV?:
Favorite recent movie (recent being - in theaters after December 1st, so within the last few months):
Have you ever done origami?:
What is your favorite color?:
Do you like oatmeal?:
Have you ever had a book you read that you just couldn't put down?
If so, what are/is the book(s)?:
Do you have any pets?:
If so, what are/is their/his/her name(S)?
Do you enjoy filling out quizzes?:
If not, why are you filling this out (if you are filling it out)?:
If so, why?

>.>And... I was not really going to ask all of those questions. Mostly just what are your favorite shows, movies, and colors... but ... because I was not to make a thread for each, I decided to add lots more.

Sorry for the random-ness. Just was curious!

Do watch tv?: Yes
What are your favorite shows to watch if you watch TV?: Chuck, Smallville, Lost(I am kinda behind on it), Doctor Who(mostly watch this from my friend's DVDs because she introduced it to me), Stargate(too bad SG1 is over, but I am watching Atlantis online to catch up to the current season), would watch more shows but I don't really have enough time
Favorite recent movie (recent being - in theaters after December 1st, so within the last few months): umm, I don't really remember, alot of them were good, like Bolt, but none are really my favourites, and also, my favourites change all the time.
Have you ever done origami?: yes, but I can never remember how to do it no matter how many times people show me how to make a crane.
What is your favorite color?: Blue
Do you like oatmeal?: sort of, if it has lots and lots of sugar in it, or those little dino eggs. I don't like raisins or fruits in it though.
Have you ever had a book you read that you just couldn't put down?: well, I am pretty good at putting books down, but there are a few books I have really enjoyed.
If so, what are/is the book(s)?: I love the Eragon series and can't wait for the next one to come out, and the Harry Potter books were pretty good. They're the ones that come to mind first.
Do you have any pets?: Yes, a Labrador Retriever and a budgie, both of whom I had to leave at home when I went off to university, I can't wait to see them when I go home for the summer(only a little over a month now :D) and then there's my plants... Since we arn't allowed pets in residence, I have to consider my plants as my pets(yes, it hurts me when they die :()
If so, what are/is their/his/her name(S)?My dog's name is Kai, my budgie's name is Coco, and my plants are named Spike, Spindle, and Splinter
Do you enjoy filling out quizzes?: sometimes
If not, why are you filling this out (if you are filling it out)?: see below
If so, why? Because it's on the Samanayr forum, and I stalk this forum, and It was fun to do.

@Cosmicdragon - You're getting a falcon? cool, what kind is he going to be? I want to get one, but they're alot of work to look after and I just don't have the time or space at university... I did get to go on a hunt with the Ontario Hawking Club and I volunteer at OWL in BC when I'm at home so I guess I will just have to be satisfied with that. Can you post or send me a picture of him when you get him?

He's most likely going to be a Gyr/Saker hybrid, though there's the possibility of a pure-bred Gyr. ;) My dad has connections with a breeder in england. I'm still not sure if I want a pure-bred Gyr, I'm not the biggest person around and they're rather big... XD But it most definitely wont be for a few years yet, I'm still training for my Falconer's License. It's very difficult to get started in, cause I live in Australia and there isn't anywhere nearby that does anything even resembling Falconry. In fact, Falconry is illegal in australia. But luckily both sides of my grandparents and my dad had birds of prey, so I'm getting a fair amount of help from them. In fact, my nan had a wedge-tail eagle. How cool is that! I don't plan to live in Australia forever, though. In fact, not much longer at all if I can help it. I'm encouraging my family to move overseas, and they're pretty ready to accept the idea.
... But, y'know, if we're both still here in a year or two, I'll be sure to show you. :lol: Supposedly the breeder could get me one now, license or not, but I want to make sure I'm ready first. :roll:

That's pretty cool. I guess it is better to wait though, I know I wouldn't know the slightest thing about how to train a falcon properly. I've heard that the most important training is in the first few weeks you get a bird, so I guess you'd have to know what you're doing right from the start.

I didn't know falconry was illegal in Australia... You learn something new everyday!
