<p>I know! Man, I really have half a mind to call right about now and sing a pleading little 'PLEEAASSE TAKE ME' song. Except that'd probably work against me.</p>
<p>Sigh.</p>
<p>Anyway, just to pass time. What song did you write you'd sing for the NYU question, NiXe?</p>
<p>The video or that I picked it? xD</p>
<p>Haha, now that you think of it, both. So what're you majoring in?</p>
<p>Classics. ^_^ It's Latin and Greek Literature. I think I'll do a concentration on Greek, though. xD I want to double major in that and I dunno what else. If I were better at science I'd pick Biology, but maybe I should do some kind of business. I suck at math and science. I'm a literature and languages kind of person.</p>
<p>That sounds fascinating. I'm an amalgam of sorts: I love writing, and so one of my majors is Creative Writing, and I'm also big on science, and so my other major is Astrophysics. I'm also a sucker for French, though, so yeah.. I don't know where that leaves me. :)</p>
<p>I'm fluent in Spanish and English. At first I thought I'd do Classics and Spanish Lit, but then I decided I wanted something more...marketable. Like, something I can always fall back on if I decide not to be a professor and a Classics degree is the kind of degree where you can only teach or like, work in a museum and such. Not that I mind, I think those jobs sound great, but I'd like a degree that's opposite of the other so that if I feel I want to go in a different direction later in life, I can.</p>
<p>I hear ya. My majors don't exactly say 'we're a pair!' either. I think I'll probably end up as a professor, too, but I'd definitely want to go into research and be an observational astronomer.</p>
<p>My dream is to have a two story house with an attic and basement. I'll have really old fashioned furniture and a huuuge library. Oh, and a cat named Josephine. My office will be cluttered with books and papers. Sometimes I'll fall asleep in there too! xD I won't have a car because, but I'll have a bike with a basket on the front where my cat will sometimes ride when I take him to the park. Oh, oh, and my bed will be a canopy one with the curtains on the sides.</p>
<p>Hey, your dream sounds a LOT like mine. Except mine isn't a dream as much as it is a 'oh my god this is how I'm going to end up.' I'll be a batty old astronomer, with a VERY, VERY fat Garfield-like cat and a huge pot of goldfish, and I'll live in a dusty old house full of books and scientific papers and a nice little roof with a huge telescope where I can sit and stare at the sky all night. I sound like I'm eighty. Geez.</p>
<p>And I'll have VERY noisy neighbours and I'll probably want to shoot them every chance I get.</p>
<p>Anyway: why 'nickel xenon'? I mean, those are both characteristic elements, but does it have a greater meaning?</p>
<p>I'll be unmarried and crabby once I get old. I'll kick children off my lawn and all my friends will be as mean and sarcastic as I am. xD I don't want to have married or have kids, so it's fine that way. ^_^ I just want a quiet, simple kind of life. I picked Nickel Xenon because I like the words. xD I like creating names. Like Nicotine Cyanide! They end up being names for characters in role plays or half finished novels too.</p>
<p>Nickel Xenon: you, are, like, me in an alternate universe. Okay, that's stupid, I thought it'd sound cool but it doesn't.</p>
<p>I'm ALREADY as crabby and mean and sarcastic as can get, and I don't want to get married or have kids either, so I expect that to about double. I also think I'm sort of sadistic in this evil, glint-eyed sort of way. Yeah. It sounds creepy, but whatever.</p>
<p>Wow, we're totally gonna be the professors kids are gonna hate in sixty years from now. Yay.</p>
<p>Oh yeah! Sounds good to me! I'm mean too. In real life. I bluntly tell people the truth even if it hurts their feelings. If someone's annoying me, I'll be rude. If I don't like you, then I'll tell you, "I don't like you." So there. XD I'm also addicted to the internet. My mouth is very liberal too. And I say the most random things ever.</p>
<p>Roleplay? Haha, fantasies galore.</p>
<p>I make up tons of words. I mean, when I'm irritated, I'll just say anything, ANYTHING mind you, and it usually sounds like greaaaf or tcheessh or something of the sort. And I can't talk about one subject for far too long, because I ALWAYS start yawning. And I'm generally termed The Kat at school (in reference to 10 things I hate about you) because I'm just downright mean. </p>
<p>Wow, we're really infiltrating a Columbia page with, like, miniature biodatas.</p>
<p>Yeah, I like Role playing because it's like writing a story with all your friends. I mean the kind you do in forums, not the online gaming kind, though I play online games too. I'm a hermit already. I never leave my room unless I have to go to the bathroom and I lock my door. If you want something, you have to knock, but I hate it when people knock because it gives me a headache hearing it all the time. So my parents are at a loss. I told them not to bother me unless someone was dying, but they bug me anyway. I just want to be left alone in my dark room with my games, books, and homework.</p>
<p>Edit: Oh yes I'm downright mean too. Somehow I'm a pervert too. xD It's my mouth! I can't help it has a mind of it's own. =/ I have the attention span of a monkey on crack. -_- You talk and my mind is already wandering away. I am downright mean too. And you know what? I don't care! Too bad!</p>
<p>Haha, sounds just like me ;)</p>
<p>Say Nickel, you wouldn't happen to be on another forum with the same screen name, would you? It looks a bit familiar...</p>
<p>Well, on Gaia and on YAOI. And um...let me think...some other forums probably. If I'm not Nickel Xenon then I'm Nicotine Cyanide or LadySamurai87.</p>
<p>Aah, it's Gaia.</p>
<p>Think I remember you making a post about colleges, but then again, it's been awhile since I've visited :P</p>
