rahdam

Not yet.
Do you plan on sleeping?
Nikita
01-02-2009, 05:19 AM
at some point...the sun's been up for over 2 hours here, lol - i was recording at like 6am!
Do you?
rahdam
01-02-2009, 05:23 AM
Eventually.
Are other people awake now?
Nikita
01-02-2009, 05:25 AM
my mom's husband already left for work...she'll probably be up in an hour if she isn't already
Are you the only one awake there?
rahdam
01-02-2009, 05:26 AM
Yeah, for now.
I might have asked this before once:
Do you think you may have already met your soulmate?
Chronos
01-02-2009, 05:29 AM
No, I don't think so. Not really ...
Do you think there even is such a thing as soulmates?
rahdam
01-02-2009, 05:30 AM
Yes.
Do you?
Nikita
01-02-2009, 05:32 AM
Already met: It's definiely possible.
Believe: Yes, though I have my cynical moments.
Do you care about what other people think?
rahdam
01-02-2009, 05:32 AM
Not particularly.
How will you know when you meet your soulmate?
Nikita
01-02-2009, 05:35 AM
that you've definitely asked before - i don't think there are rules...i just think i'll know, possibly have my suspicions at first, which at some point will be confirmed or denied
You?
rahdam
01-02-2009, 05:37 AM
When I look into her eyes for the first time.
How will you win the heart of your soulmate?
Nikita
01-02-2009, 05:37 AM
i don't think i'd have to
You?
rahdam
01-02-2009, 05:39 AM
I'll respond in kind, given the vague nature of the question.
Rather, you said that you may talk yourself out of someone until you are absolutely sure they are your soulmate. Assume he shows the same characteristic. How do you make the first move?
Nikita
01-02-2009, 05:41 AM
i really don't know...it's not something i'd ever considered doing...though i guess the timing would have to be right
You?
rahdam
01-02-2009, 05:42 AM
I'd just tell her how I feel. If she's my soulmate, she'll pick up what I'm throwin' down.
How soon after meeting your soulmate would you have sex?
Nikita
01-02-2009, 05:44 AM
depends on how quickly i felt comfortable with him - i wouldn't try to slow down anything that happened naturally, i'm really all for letting it play out without preconceived notions
You?
rahdam
01-02-2009, 05:46 AM
I think it's best to flow naturally, but that would happen very quickly.
What single moral/principle is most important to you?
Nikita
01-02-2009, 05:47 AM
the only thing i can think of at the moment is: Dare to Outstare the Sun...it's about never being afraid to try the impossible, never giving up, never letting anyone or anything hold you back from your own path
You?
rahdam
01-02-2009, 05:50 AM
If it's worth doing, it's worth doing right. Applied to life generally, to to specific instances.

I am doubtful, but not certain.
Would you ever donate your eggs to the egg bank?
Nikita
01-02-2009, 05:53 AM

You, as to sperm?
rahdam
01-02-2009, 05:54 AM

rahdam
01-02-2009, 06:08 AM
I have stuff to do today, and I don't feel tired. I feel fresh.
Do you ever worry that in following your career path you will miss your soulmate?
Nikita
01-02-2009, 06:09 AM
no, i think that our paths will intersect because we're soulmates
You?
rahdam
01-02-2009, 06:10 AM
Yes. There are so many paths before me, and I hate to choose any particular path.I want to follow them all. I think of all the things I miss on the other paths.
Describe your path until death.
Nikita
01-02-2009, 06:12 AM
my brain is not as fresh as yours right now, lol, i'll give it some thought and get back to you when i'm more than half-conscious
Yours?
rahdam
01-02-2009, 06:13 AM
From my above answer, I have no idea. If I did, I would not have the myriad paths in front of me that I do.
How much longer will you last?
Nikita
01-02-2009, 06:15 AM
umm probably not much longer...i have to fly out tomorrow and have a lot to do before then
Do you think you'll sleep?
rahdam
01-02-2009, 06:16 AM
I have it within my power to do so.
But right now, my focus is elsewhere.
Are you ready to go back?
Nikita
01-02-2009, 06:18 AM

Been there, done that!
Do you worry about the passage of time?
Nikita
01-03-2009, 12:02 AM
time's passing whether I want it to or not, why fret?
(i thought reganon might want to answer it, hence the reposting)
You?
rahdam
01-03-2009, 12:03 AM
Every day.
Do you feel like you have wasted much time in your life?
Nikita
01-03-2009, 12:04 AM
yes
Do you follow a strict schedule in your daily routine?
rahdam
01-03-2009, 12:05 AM
Not exactly. I have a list of things I need to do each day, but the order is largely variable.
What is one thing you wish you knew 4 years ago? The most important.
Nikita
01-03-2009, 12:07 AM
i can't really say...hmm, well i wish I'd known the job market would bottom out and I'd total my car...I would've done PC a LOT sooner
You?
rahdam
01-03-2009, 12:10 AM
I wish I had harnessed the rage that I felt earlier. I spent far too long trying to rid myself of it.
Spear fishing or bobber and worm?
Nikita
01-03-2009, 12:10 AM
spear fishing
What prompted that question? lol
rahdam
01-03-2009, 12:12 AM
I thought of a spear, and I thought of fish.
Like I've said, my mind is very strange in its generation of thought.
What is the funniest thing you have ever seen in your life?
Nikita
01-03-2009, 12:14 AM
the only thing i can think of at the moment is a picture of a friend from when she was in middle school...her hair was reddish in a really bad short and curly cut and she was wearing overall shorts that looked like the drapes from The Sound of Music over a magenta shirt with high socks and white sneakers...it was horrible, lol
You?
Note: Do I seem to get a disproportionate number of "666" posts?
rahdam
01-03-2009, 12:17 AM
Tough one. Lemme think. There's a great picture out there of two guys rolling Jiu-Jitsu. One is hugging the back of the other, and they are both smiling at the camera. The caption is something to the effect of "Jiu-Jitsu: It's only gay if you make eye contact". The catch: Those two were 2 of the top 5 205 lb fighters in the entire world when it was taken. I know I've seen things much funnier, but they don't come to mind right now.
When were you saddest in your life?
Nikita
01-03-2009, 12:19 AM
during law school - if there was ever a time I could have potentially been diagnosed with depression, that would have been it...but I wasn't
You?
rahdam
01-03-2009, 12:20 AM
I lost a high school friend to Leukemia. To seem him lose his form and and happiness was very difficult for me.
What was the most difficult part of law school?
Nikita
01-03-2009, 12:23 AM
hating it - the material wasn't difficult, but I absolutely hated it
What was the thing you liked least about college?
rahdam
01-03-2009, 12:25 AM
I found no one as smart as me, and thus, no competition to dominate.
This lead to complacency on my part. Someone said about me once: You can play at any level, so long as the competition is there to drive you. You play up or down to the level of those around you. I wish I could do that.
Do you need competition to suceed?
Nikita
01-03-2009, 12:26 AM
in many situations...but not all, there are times when I just haven't cared (like law school)
With whom are you most competitive?
rahdam
01-03-2009, 12:28 AM
Those who present the greatest threat. If I do not see a threat, I am playful.
You?
Nikita
01-03-2009, 12:30 AM
pretty much the same...though i can get competitive even when being playful
hmm...given the competition last night...Do I threaten you? :p
rahdam
01-03-2009, 12:31 AM
You threaten me in ways you do not know. But in the traditional sense, no.
I'll shoot that back at you.
Nikita
01-03-2009, 12:33 AM
lol wtf now i need an explanation - in a way, but not in a fear that you would hurt me kind of way
What is your greatest fear at the moment?
rahdam
01-03-2009, 12:35 AM
Fear that I will make a mistake.
In what way do I threaten you?
Nikita
01-03-2009, 12:37 AM
i can't say
Have you made any decisions about your next step?
rahdam
01-03-2009, 12:39 AM
I'm going to operate in parallel for now and procrastinate the ultimate decision. Both are so important, and it turns out, not mutually exclusive at all. Timing is the key.
Why can't you say?
Nikita
01-03-2009, 12:41 AM
if I told you I'd have to kill you
Do you have anything planned for the weekend?
rahdam
01-03-2009, 12:43 AM
Preparation for Monday, Finish PC app, Submit a signature for UCSF.
Workout, in preparation for return to BJJ on Monday.
You?
Nikita
01-03-2009, 12:44 AM
other than going home, nope
Do you drink coffee? If so, how do you take it?
rahdam
01-03-2009, 12:45 AM
I don't touch the stuff.
Do you?
Nikita
01-03-2009, 12:47 AM
Nope. Ironically, I got about $50 in Starbucks gift cards for Xmas...but I do like the Strawberry Tangerine (or Strawberry Lemonade) juice blend...but damn $50?
For where would you love to get a gift card?
rahdam
01-03-2009, 12:49 AM
I don't like gift cards.
what do you usually wear to work?
Nikita
01-03-2009, 12:50 AM
black pants and a henley...it's business casual and i can get away with it
You?
rahdam
01-03-2009, 12:52 AM
Dress shoes, khakis, belt, button down, tie.
How do you dress relative to your coworkers? That is, do you tend to overdress or underdress?
Nikita
01-03-2009, 12:53 AM
i'm slightly underdressed, lol...especially since i usually have on flip flops whereas they have designer stilettos...(i keep shoes there to change into, but don't unless someone notices)...i'm pretty much incurably casual
You?
rahdam
01-03-2009, 12:54 AM
I tend to overdress a bit, but for reasons of functionality.
Do you interact with many people directly, face to face, each day at work?
Nikita
01-03-2009, 12:56 AM
a fair amount...they appreciate my competence and efficiency, so they don't much care how i dress
Does being underdressed bother you?
rahdam
01-03-2009, 12:58 AM
Not at all.
Why did you go to law school? Surely there was a reason when you started, at least.
Nikita
01-03-2009, 01:03 AM
well, I graduated from undergrad a year early (I got pissed and wanted out of the school...so I accelerated my hours and for some reason picked up a minor, an easy one, though, and got out of there)...but in finishing up early, I realized I had to do something afterwards. I had always been told i'd make a good lawyer and i knew the money was decent, so I decided "why not?" i took the lsat, applied, and got into a top 15 school. the real irony is that after i was accepted, we went to that city/state to find a condo for me to live in, i knew driving through there that i didn't want to be there, I think I actually cried i was so upset...well, we get home and there's a letter from the school...they cancelled my admission because they didn't receive my letter of intent (which I've still never gotten in the mail). i was so mad at being told i couldn't do it and scared about what i was going to do if i didn't go, that i talked my way back into there after three weeks of conversations with the Dean. i wish now that i had tried out for Juilliard or something like that...even though I don't think I'm good enough
What have you learned most from TFA?
rahdam
01-03-2009, 01:10 AM
(It sounds like a decision borne of a position of weakness rather than strength.)
I know how to interact with and relate to about anyone.
(Subtle undertone: I can manipulate about anyone.)
I learned what it takes to be a leader, a real leader.
If I can lead those who don't outwardly want to be lead, I can lead about anyone.
What is your biggest doubt about your involvement in the PC, admission notwithstanding?
Nikita
01-03-2009, 01:11 AM

I don't have any others.
Yours?
rahdam
01-03-2009, 01:15 AM
Only what may be or what may not be.
I suspect it will all resolve itself, or rather, my instincts will.
How much arabic do you know thus far?
Nikita
01-03-2009, 01:19 AM
A few phrases and some of the alphabet and grammar rules...not much
How proficient is your Spanish?
rahdam
01-03-2009, 01:24 AM
I won the high school spanish department award, but I have not formally used it much sense. It's very roughly conversational, but I can tell from my interactions with my students that it would come back very, very fast if I put in the effort. They are always impressed.
With what language are you best acquainted, excluding English.
Nikita
01-03-2009, 01:27 AM
Spanish...I'm also pretty good with some phrases and general pronunciation of French, German, Latin, Hebrew, and Italian
How many languages can you say, "I love you" in? (Asking b/c it's the one phrase I ask my foreign friends about.)
rahdam
01-03-2009, 01:29 AM
Only English and Spanish. I can't say I've ever even inquired how to say that in other languages.
You? I feel like the answer is approximately 13.
Nikita
01-03-2009, 01:32 AM
english, spanish, french, german, italian, hebrew, japanese, polish, tagalog, some tribal language, russian, sign language, farsi...ok damnit 13, lol
If you could only be fluent in one language other than English, which would you choose?
rahdam
01-03-2009, 01:35 AM
Chinese.
You?
Nikita
01-03-2009, 01:36 AM

Favorite poem?
rahdam
01-03-2009, 01:41 AM
Nothing immediately comes to mind, I tended to stare off into space for the entire poetry unit of any class I ever took. I do like Dante's Inferno.
Favorite drama?
Nikita

Yours?

That Tragic History of Doctor Faustus - Marlowe
I also love Tartuffe - Moliere (You may very well like this as well)
Could you be an actress if you wanted to?
Nikita
01-03-2009, 01:46 AM
I have no clue...I get stiff in front of other people, and stage fright has always been an issue at least with singing
You, but actor?
rahdam
01-03-2009, 01:54 AM
I think so.
Why do you get stiff in front of others?
Nikita
01-03-2009, 01:55 AM
i'm afraid of making a fool of myself
Do you get stagefright?
rahdam
01-03-2009, 01:58 AM
No. I'm pretty confident in front of large groups. I've had practice in various contexts.
What is the size of the social group in which you feel most comfortable, with respect to physically being in the same room?
Nikita

Nikita

keys, license, cell phone, credit card or cash depending on what i need to do that day (maybe neither), chapstick
Most prized possession? (material/tangible)

If you could have an affair with your favorite actor/actress, would you?
Assuming "affair" implies cheating on my part, I would not. I would if I were completely unattached.

Do you think people eventually get what they deserve?
Nikita
01-03-2009, 07:09 PM
I hope so.
What do you deserve?
Reganon
01-03-2009, 07:16 PM
A medal for trying. Other than that, nothing. Living with myself after doing something wrong is punishment enough.
Do you still beat yourself up over things that happened a while ago?
rara avis
01-03-2009, 07:16 PM
not sure I want to know. It's like that scene from Neverending Story with the mirror.
I suppose I deserve what I'm able to get for myself.
Ohh, yes. My hobby.

I would feel better if I were a little warmer.
Do you prefer that people learn to respect you before they like you or vice-versa?
Nikita

How do you take care of yourself when you're sick/what do you like to have around/do?
rara avis
01-03-2009, 07:35 PM
If I'm really sick, I want to lie down with comfortable accoutrements and watch retarded movies. Usually prefer to be alone - with someone on call in case I think I'm dying. (Not unusual.) Yesterday/today, I just wanted chili or soup, and a backrub. And a pedicure.
Oh, and lots and lots of water to drink.
You?
Nikita
01-03-2009, 07:37 PM
Water, a box of tissues, and a garbage can nearby - and to be left alone
