Decided to try doing this meme thing, since i haven't done it before. Also a reason to learn how to do LJ cut.
So,
Name: Anna
Owner of: Lots of books
Love and relationships: I love my husband.
Religion: Orthodox Christian, but not overly religious.
Politics: dislike and distrust.
M.O.: What's this?
Computer: My husband’s toy.
Camera: My toy. New shiny digital toy.
Music: whatever grabs me and some Russian rock music.
Star sign: Libra
Chinese astrological year: Dragon.
Undergraduate: Law, Moscow State university – which still makes me immensely proud of myself. Of course, I’ve never planned to live in Canada.
Master's: want to do next year – if they take me.
Doctorate: let’s see how my LLM will go first.
Flower: Peony and lilac
Instrument: I used to learn to play guitar, but it didn’t work out. Especially for my guitar. It got broken.
Fruit: Peaches, apricots and bananas, also forest berries.
Dance: Like to dance when I am in the mood, never learned how to do it.
Knit: My knitting speed– one sweater in two years.
Sew: No. Well, may be to fix clothes, but not to make anything new.
Swear: Silently. Don’t like the sound of swearing, but it helps me. If I am mildly annoyed I swear in English, if I am mightily pissed off – in Russian.
Bake: Can do, but nothing elaborate.
Cook: I cook, since I don’t want to starve. Sometimes I cook rather well.
Sing: I love to sing, but others don’t love to listen to my singing.
Family: In western hemisphere it is only two of us, in Russia – parents, sister, cousin, grandparents, uncle, and some more.
Friends: In Moscow, in Vancouver, in Toronto.
Childhood pet name: Anechka, Anuta, Anya, other derivatives from Anna. It is not really childhood names, it is more names for family and friends. I am still Anuta.
Books: Too much to read in one lifetime, and, possibly, some more. I love books. I love them very, very much. Have I mentioned how much I love books? Here.
Class: Literature in high school.
Ambition: To finish the book and publish it. And then some more.
Sell-out price: Lots and lots of flattery.
Flavor: A little bit sweet, a little bit sour.
Tattoos: Don’t have any – I don’t like the permanence of it.
Piercings: Two per ear.
Hair: Was born without, then it grew blonde, then it darkened, then I began experimenting with colours. This year it is black.
Eyes: Grey
Allergies: dust, pollen, since last year – also cats.
Quality of life: Not too bad, but could be better. It all depends on someone’s point of view, anyway.
Sense of humor: Very weird, but I love it that way. Monty Pyton – style.
Spice: Some. Dill, majoran, clove, cinnamon.
Other languages: The other language for me is English. The normal one is Russian. I know several words and several songs in Ukrainian. I used to learn German, I liked it, and would like to continue some day, but right now any languages other than English are very low on my list of priorities.
Sleep: Long with weird and fascinating dreams.
Drug: Alcohol, coffee
Cleanliness level: Clean enough.
Bury me: Not until I'm dead.
Lifetime achievements: I am so not sure in anything right now… May be I’ll think of some later.
Game: Once it was charades, but it depended on people involved.
Magazine: Haven’t read any for a while.
Motto: I love life.
now, let's see what it looks like.
ETA: It looks like I am not a really cool person. Which is fine with me. May be.

Date: 2003-11-25 12:51 pm (UTC)Nice to meet you too! first comment - Wow!
Yes I am kinda a legal person - or I was three years ago in Russia, and planning to be again. I've been on a friending rampage lately - as I have got LJ now and courage to write in English (I should, planning to write a thesis for LLM next year). So I've friended people I like to read and actually going to comment. Thanks for friending me back!
Can I mention now that your "the View of the Ocean" is lovely, true to characters, beautiful and it is my personal canon for AtS 5.
