If so, what event really drove it home that you weren't in your own country anymore?
See above.
What place/s do you most and least want to visit?
Most: America, Canada, essentially the places with people I want to meet.
Least: Antarctica.
What have you recently discovered or worked out about yourself?
Nothing recent. I guess I've realised I'm not as bad at drawing and stuff than I thought.
In what ways have you changed since you were half your current age?
Lesse, from 11 years old....My interests have changed, from drawing to video games to a blend of both. I've moved house once (right near the old one ) and travelled interstate three times (Canberra once, Queensland twice). Don't have as many friends as I used to though.
In what ways have you stayed the same?
Still into games and stuff. Dunno, not much else I've noticed. :/
What are you most proud of?
Actually coming out of the closet. Took a fair amount of guts. Also really happy that I'm improving with drawing, programming and other game-making skills.
What are you most ashamed of?
....don't really want to talk about it. :/
What is your greatest achievement?
Dunno. Haven't got any achievements I'd consider truly "great".
What is your greatest regret?
I dunno. I regret a few things, but I don't really have a big "greatest regret".
What do you consider the best and worst of each of your senses (that is, what do you think is the best and worst smell, taste, etc)?
Best:
Taste - Most seafood. :d
Smell - Freshly mown grass.
Touch - No idea. Probably omething smooth and soft.
Sound - Falling rain.
Sight - Hmm.... no idea.
Worst:
Taste - Bourbon.
Smell - Rotten anything.
Touch - Thorns and other small spiky things that get stuck in your skin and are hard to remove.
Sound - Grinding blades or lawnmowers.
Sight - Anything involving gore.
Wanna meet whenever I end up in your part of the world?
If you come down to Melbourne at any point, sure!
Do you have any siblings that are not on this forum?
Do you like Blinky Bill?
What's your favourite Roleplay prop?

Sorry to hear about Dagger.
Thanks. It really has been a while, huh.

Yep. A sister, age 5 and a brother, age 2. Both live with my dad and step-mum (I live with my mum, step-dad and Rowsen).
Do you like Blinky Bill?
Seen very little of Blinky Bill, only the animated kids show. Seems appropriate for its demographic. I liked it.
What's your favourite Roleplay prop?
Eh? Not sure what you mean. I've never LARPed, if that helps.
What's your favourite Roleplay prop, like a rare die or special screen or a miniature that you got as a birthday gift from a talented older brother?

Ow. Just ow blackfox. You'll pay for that answer! But not today. Thank you for sharing with us, even if you did set us up in a trap.

What question would you like to be asked?
Who's your favorite author?
What traits do you look for in an ideal pet?
Fluffiness, Affection, and Protectiveness in that order. Also any dog must be at least as tall as the point halfway between my knee and hip.
What is the square root of Pi?
Pi. is irrational. It doesn't technically have one.
What's your favorite OOTS strip?
I have a fondness for the ending of 590.
What's your favorite Erfworld strip?
I've never read any of them.
How does your ITP persona relate to you in real life?
Well, I try my best to be equal parts informative and funny no matter where I am. That carries over here as well.
Sadistic choice time! You must choose to save either the life of your most loved one or the lives of a large group of strangers. Which do you choose?
In either case, the event will likely alter my mental state to the point of near-constant nightmares. Might as well have my loved one there to comfort me.
What is your favorite word?
Chartreuse. Because it's the most pretentious name for a color I have ever heard.
What is your least favorite word?
Swag.
What makes you enthusiastic?
News about the upcoming show The Last Airbender: Legend of Korra
What disappoints you?
Every time I see a Soulja Boy song on television as part of a countdown.
What sound do you love?
The way Captain Falcon said "Falcon Punch" in SSB64.
What sound do you hate?
Navi's Voice from Ocarina of Time.
What profession other than yours would you like to attempt?
Writing/comic-making/animating.
What profession would you not like to participate in?
Cooking. Because I'd likely burn myself.
Who is your favorite Fire Emblem character?
Mechanics-wise, it would be Rutger from FE6. Because he just wrecks everything. Story-wise, I'm caught between Amelia, FE8 and Rebecca from FE7.
EDIT: wxdruid's questions: What color(s) do you prefer to wear?
Black, Yellow and Green
What do you like to collect?
Keychains
How many avatars do you have?
I participate in theme weeks rather frequently. I'd say I have about 16-20
I also collect keychains. How many do you have and from how many different states or countries?
I've got about 20 from various places. Three from Toronto: one of them has a Canadian coin of some kind that spins around because it's coated in thick plastic and has a vertical pole going through it The other 2 are just pieces of metal that "Toronto" in different fonts. I've got a Jamaica one of a guy with a Bongo drum, 3 others from Jamaica that have the shape of the map (one is topographical, one is a straight map, and one has a picture of two people on it. I have a few utility keychains Can opener, 2 flashlights, nail-clipper). They're not from anywhere in particular. That's just off the top of my head. I've lost a lot, though. I'm not allowed to poke holes in my wall because we rent the place, and I don't have enough places to put them.
