I was tagged by the lovely :iconnavanathepheonix: ^_^  My very first tag, so I thought: why not?  It should be fun.
So here's how it goes...

:bulletred:The Rules::bulletred:
1.You Must Post The Rules.

2. Each Person Must Post 5 Things About Themselves In Their Journal.

3. Answer The Questions The Tagger Set For You In Their Post, And Create Eleven New Questions For The People You Tag To Answer.

4. You Have To Choose 11 People To Tag And Post Their Icons On Your Journal.

5. Go To Their Page And Tell Them You Have Tagged Them.

6. No Tag Backs.

7. No Stuff In The Tagging Section About "You're Tagged If You're Reading This". You Legitimately Have To Tag 11 People.

:star:5 things about your ':iconanjyil:':star:

1. My real name is Michelle---yes, a very common name that has plagued me my whole life but I love it now. ^_^

2. I am currently living in Japan with my husband and his family.  Yes, he is Japanese.

3. The images I see in my head are Master Level.  I, however, am not there yet in skill.

4. I have learned more from studying art than I did in High School.

5. I don't understand girly things.  Make-up and fashion are a complete mystery to me.

:iconepiclaplz:My questions! (For me only XD):iconepiclaplz:
1. Ketchup or mustard?

Ketchup all the way.

2. Favorite seaon? why?

Spring or Autumn, because it is not god-awful hot or deathly cold.  Also, it is the time when Nature is blooming or dying and is full of colors and interesting scenery.

3. What kind of animal would you be? Why?

A dragon.  Dragons have always been my favorite animal.  Though Western mythology places them as evil demonic-type beasts, Eastern cultures usually placed them as lucky and wise protectors.  DnD expanded upon this, as did many of my favorite stories.  Mainly, Dragons (to me) are wise, powerful, cool...^_^

4. What would you say if you only had 1 word left?

Truth.

5. Favorite song? Band/singer? Why? (Leave a link so i can listen to it too ^-^)

I have several from Gackt that are my favorite: Lost Angels, Oblivious, Lust for Blood, Meuriai (his cover of an older song), Blue Lagoon, Setsugetsuka -The End of Silence-, Ash, Future, Rain, Cube, Ever, Face-2-Face, Ghost, Justified...
Those are my number 1 favorites from him. I will only link a few of them, though...

Lost angels: [link] (this whole concert is based on a story of his creation where a terminator-type machine is used in World War II, but it recalls his human memories or something like that...very cool.  This was about the time he created the theme song for the Japanese release of the Sarah Connor Chronicles (Ghost))

Oblivious: [link] (from the same concert)

Justified: [link] (a different concert...my god, his range is beautiful!)

Setsugetsuka -The End of Silence-: [link] (one of the most beautiful promotional videos I have ever seen)




6. Why did you join DA? <w< (Is uber curious about this one)

I wanted to start sharing my art and seeing others for inspiration.

7. Ever been sky diving?! >;D (I will be soon :dummy:)

No, and I NEVER will.

8. If you were given enough money to to travel around the world to find your other half, would you do it? Where would you look first? Why?

I have already found my other half, so I can not really answer this question. ^_^

9. (anime/manga fans) What's your favorite manga and anime? (If not a fan then..) What's your favorite movie of all time? (Only pick 1)

Just one?  I tend to have a bunch offavorites... Cardcaptor Sakura was my first Anime, so I guess I will put that.  As for manga...well, I like a lot of them...haven't found an absolute favorite yet, though.  Same with movies.  I don't do well with favorites ^_^

10. Most valuable thing to you? (It doesn't have to be expensive like an iphone 5000 XD)

As much as I love and treasure my art supplies and books, I would toss them in a heart-beat for my family..maybe even some friends.  Sounds cheesy, but it is true.  I just don't value things much.

11. Do your job and protect the enviroment by not littering! Agree? Disagree?

Of course agree.  I have walked around a city for over an hour with garbage in my pocket because I couldn't find a garbage can. (Japan surprisingly has very few public garbage cans, yet the streets are fairly clean..it really amazes me.)


:star:My questions for you lucky tagged peoples::star:

1. Whether for art, life, your career, or whatever: who inspires you the most?

2. Who or what influences your life the most?

3. If you ruled the world, what would you do?

4. What celebrity/famous person/actor/actress/whatever do you hate the most?  Why?

5. What is one positive thing about the person you listed above?

6. When writing or typing anything, do you use textese or proper English?

7. What is the biggest problem with the world?

8. What is the best thing about this world?

9. What is your favorite scene from a movie/show, and/or favorite song.  Share a clip from youtube! ^_^

10. What is your favorite kind of weather?  Why?

11. Today is your last day to live.  What would you do for the next 24 hours?



Now.. TAGGING...

I really want feedback on my work so that I can improve :)

Thank you ^_^ I wouldn't say I am professional on any level, though, and I am not familiar with photomanipulations so I wouldn't know where to begin to give you helpful critique....
