Interview with the Princess


Me and my big mouth. Or, in this case, my…um…hyperactively typing fingers? Haha!

Got myself hooked on this interview meme from Anka. The rules are at the end.

1.) What’s so special with “random snowflakes” that you have it as your journal’s title? (In short, why “random snowflakes”?)
For, like, the first 2 years of my blog’s life, I had the answer to this right smack on the header. But since I don’t have it on there anymore, I’ll answer the question.

For most of my life, I see that things happen seemingly accidentally, but then I realize later that they’re perfectly orchestrated and that they all happen at the perfect time. So, even though things happen to me that look too ordinary, or even unfortunate, they’re actually part of a huge, huge and beautiful picture. Sort of like snowflakes, falling to make a gorgeous snowscape.

That’s why I’ve previously had a header that says, “Random Snowflakes: each unique, each special, each falling at the perfect time and place”.

Heeheeheee. Maybe I should put that subheader back up.

2.) If given the chance to blog professionally, as in with salary and all, what would it be about?
Ooh-lala! Music, movies, life and blogging. Basically what I’m writing about right now. Hm. But I guess to make it more streamlined (and to make more moolah!), I’d make separate blogs for each category. Right now I’m meshing them together because I don’t like it when my blog isn’t updated, and I can’t update so many blogs at the moment. Ahehehe.

3.) How different are you in person, and from your blog persona?
Not much different, really. Hm. I think I’d go out and say that I’m not different at all. Before, I had several blogs to reflect different sides of me (check out my post on this: diamond). One for my real life friends (this one), one for my anime friends (LJ), one for my church friends (multiply), one solely for craziness (xanga), one solely for my fiction work (agila) and… a handful of other mirror sites. But I eventually gave up on that and focused on 2 blogs.

One is this one, obviously. The other one is on multiply, which is primarily for my friends from church, because nearly everyone in my church has multiply. Hehe. It basically has the same contents as this blog, but I don’t cross-post everything because some posts probably won’t interest them as others. My multiply blog is linked to this one, though, so it’s not like I’m leading a double life or anything.

4.) You love “names”, it’s quite obvious. Have you ever thought of what you’d name your child? (if not, would you give it a try for the sake of this interview? haha!)
I’ve tried, several times, to be honest. At one point I was fixed on calling them Prince or Princess (based on my own name, of course). But a few years back I decided not to box the possibility.

I’ve always liked the name Nicola, meaning “victorious people”. And, come on, who wouldn’t want their kid to be victorious? Another cool, rare name I’ve liked the sound of is Kezia. She was one of Job’s daughters, and she was said to be “most beautiful in the land”. How awesome is that?

For boys, one of the names I’ve loved for a while is Jesse, “the Lord exists”. There are a handful of names with that meaning, but methinks that one is the most… um… smexy.

Yes. I wish my kid to be a heartthrob. So sue me.

Nathaniel (“the Lord gives”) is great, too, and it’s fitting, given my testimony that the Lord always gives me everything I need (and surprises me while He’s at it). Hm. Speaking of “surprise” and “wonder”, Darien sounds nice, too, and, okay, possibly fitting for my heartthrob son.

On a side note, notice that two of my favorite names happen to be the names of the protagonists in Nicola and the Viscount, a book whose fanfic I’m writing at the moment. Also note that I loved those names even before I read the book. Ain’t it cool?

Of course, I might end up not using any of those names. I kind of imagine that I’ll be naming my kids depending on what the Lord’s doing in my life at that time.

And, no, in case any one of you is wondering: I do not intend to have five kids.

5.) Having your own domain, what plans do you have for it in the future besides having it as a blog? (if you have some?)
I…uh… I plan to update the other sections! Haha!

No, seriously, I really DO plan to update the other sections. I really am going to transfer my photos and sketches. Seriously. You believe me, right?

*tumbleweed*

*ahem*

im cracking my brains out trying to think if there’s another word for snowflake!

eway, one thing’s for sure here: YOU DO LOVE NAMES and i can’t believe you’ve actually came up with (was that five?) names for kids! hmm… i like kezia and nathaniel too.. but just like you, i too want to name my kids depending on what’s history within that moment.

thanks for answering the interview!
