Yes!

My dad got it for me when I was a young child and I didn’t get it, or at the very least didn’t appreciate it because I suppose I already knew those things. It wasn’t until I was an adult and I read it that I was like ‘ohhhh…..oh man…..’

I’ve been slowly shifting over to a new blog, @goldendrone24 I’ll mainly be tumbling/posting from there from now on, so I humbly ask if you’re interested in following my blog you start following that account. I may still post here from time to time, but goldendrone will be my main blog.

12: what book do you need to read? That list is so unbelievably long… I keep meaning to read The Witches by Stacy Schiff (I think that’s her last name). 

18: if you could breathe music, which artist would you choose to inhale and which would you choose to exhale? Inhale Kimya Dawson, exhale Miss Li.

24: who do you admire most in the world? why? Honestly, probably Brittany. She is hella kind and generous and hard-working and just a really good person. Followed by my favorite scenic designer because she is fabulous and has literally always worked in scenic design and can illustrate her pants off and travels the world getting to do cool shit and is late career goals. 

26: would you rather be the night sky or the day sky? Night sky

39: do you hear things in layers or all at once? I hear them all at once and then go back and pick things apart layer-by-layer. 

5. What's the very first film you remember watching

Anastasia. I remember going to the theatre. When I was little I hated loud noises so my parents always brought earmuffs with them -- that way I could wear them and not get scared, but still hear the movie. And it was Anastasia and I don't think my parents knew how dark it would be and it scared me a lot and my dad had to take me out into the hall until the "In The Dark of The Night" sequence was over. Pretty sure I cried. Love that movie though. \

14 - I already answered so I'll dooooo 2 instead. 

2. What's the most disturbing movie you've ever watched

Tough competition here. I watch a lot of disturbing shit. It very well could be Dogtooth -- that movie is fucked up and I still don't know if I liked it or not. Like, just enormous levels of "what the fuck" going on. That's pretty high on the list. Blue Velvet is also pretty high on the list, but I don't really like David Lynch. Like that makes the list more because I think it was disturbing and violent and misogynistic without purpose??? Like Dogtooth was fucked up but there was a clear goal toward the end of the film and it made a little sense. Blue Velvet to me was like watching David Lynch pleasure himself for two hours and then be like "Eh???? So??? You liked it??? You're a film buff so you SHOULD." And I was not impressed. 

16 - I already answered this one as well so I'l do 6 instead

6. A film you wish you hadn't watched

A Serbian Film. Here's the thing though -- I've never seen A Serbian Film. I ONLY READ THE SYNOPSIS. AND I WISH I FUCKING HADN'T. LIKE THE IMAGES MY OWN MIND CONJURED FROM READING THE FUCKING SYNOPSIS FOR THAT FILM ARE SO FUCKING DISTURBING THAT I HAVE TROUBLE EVEN LIVING WITH MYSELF. DON'T DO IT. DON'T EVEN THINK ABOUT IT. PRETEND I NEVER MENTIONED THAT GOD FORSAKEN FILM. 

19. Mainstream movies or indie movies

B -- a song to listen to before you go to sleep

Closer -- The Tiny

I have fallen alseep to this song many times. I discovered it via Welcome to Nightvale, as I'm sure many people have. I have something for melancholy warbles and this takes the cake when it comes to sad warbling. Gorgeous. 

L -- an instrumental

I Love You -- Tyler Bates

This is from the score of Watchmen and it makes me cry. It's also incredibly soothing. It fills me with this just intense calm -- like everything is going to be alright. 

Q -- a song to drive to

My Favorite Game -- The Cardigans

Maybe it's just the video that makes me want to drive to this song, but it's SUCH a good driving song. Also The Cardigans are flawless. 

W -- a song with an amazing music video

The Joker -- Fatboy Slim
