Activity: Genre Stamping
Points: 10pts for submitting an app, 2pts each per vote, 30pt cap.
Deadline: Tuesday, January 15th @ 21:59 UTC (timezone converter).
Details: Another stamping activity! This time we're doing music genre stamping; you all know how stamping works and this is just the same game as always; fill out an application, stamp and get stamped. You'll receive ten points for filling out the app (which means I do want you to put effort in this!) and two points for each vote with a cap of 30 points. Don't forget to sign your votes with your name&house!

Note: Always remember that this is just for fun. I'm sure that there is no one planning to insult anyone with stamping, so... Yeah, let's just try and have fun and don't take it all too seriously! ♥

Note 2: Please please please try to go and stamp other applications, especially if you have an application up yourself. It's just fair and I'd like to give people their stamps without feeling bad for so little votes at the end of this activity! ♥

Classical - traditional, sophisticated, unique

Music expresses that which cannot be said and on which it is impossible to be silent. Victor Hugo recommends you to join the Club.

An evil fairy pops up and curses you as a punishment for not inviting her to dinner; from now on you'll only be allowed to listen to one single genre of music for the rest of your life - which one is it?
Electronic (house/techno/dub.. good beats) - also, how cruel.

Why exactly didn't you invite the fairy to dinner?
She was a bit too high maintenance for me? I like small, intimate dinners tbh.

If you could achieve one thing in your life, may it be for you, may it be for the rest of the world, what would it be?
Be successful and happy with my life, and in all things that I do.

You're throwing a theme party; what is the theme you choose?
I'm less about large parties and more about laid back, personal, comfy etc. So I'd really just invite some people over for like a movie marathon, and I'd make finger foods and desserts, adding margaritas for funzies.

Do you have a favourite composer?
Not particularly. I enjoy Debussy, if only for the lovely Clair de Lune.. and then there's all the classical composers I do appreciate.

Is there any music that you cannot stand at all?
I can usually adapt to most music. I don't usually enjoy music with terrible or meaningless lyrics, but hey, if it sounds good to my ears, I won't be bothered anyways.

Anything else you'd like to say?
Uhh.. I could probably listen to Kings of Leon forever.

An evil fairy pops up and curses you as a punishment for not inviting her to dinner; from now on you'll only be allowed to listen to one single genre of music for the rest of your life - which one is it? Well this is a hard one. Um...I guess Alternative since it's sort of a term that lumps together an eclectic variety of music. If I'm stuck listening to one genre, might as well be one that has a variety to keep me entertained.
Why exactly didn't you invite the fairy to dinner? Because I don't know her?? I mean she just popped up outta nowhere to curse me so....
If you yould achieve one thing in your life, may it be for you, may it be for the rest of the world, what would it be? I guess it would be successful in my life and being working at my dream job.
You're throwing a theme party; what is the theme you choose? Umm....I don't really liked themed parties all that much. I'm more for get togethers with close friends and just playing drinking games haha.
Do you have a favourite composer? Nope.
Is there any music that you cannot stand at all? I can't think of one that I can't stand so I guess not! I try to be open-minded and more often it's individual songs and not whole genres.
Anything else you'd like to say? Nooo??

List your top three positive and negative traits:
Positive
~ Intelligence. I'm rational and logical and am fairly good at evaluating things.
~ Empathy. I find that I often put myself in the place of others. For example, I have a “blush squick”. I cannot handle watching people be embarrassed in movies/on television shows. Because I put myself in their position and I feel horridly uncomfortable for them.
~ Hard working. I am one of those people who focuses on what needs to be done and does it. In fact, I often take on too much to do.

Negative
~ Intelligence. This is a double edged sword. One of the critiques I used to get a lot in evaluations at work was that I expected people to be smart and when they didn't hold to my high standards I got frustrated. (My sister has many a horror story of me attempting to help her with math when we were younger and both of us getting so frustrated we wanted to kill each other!) I've learned to temper it, but it is still there.
~ Perfectionism. I have control issues. I have a hard time delegating things because I feel they won't be done exactly as I want them to be done. It also makes me frustrated at times when doing things. Such as when I make graphics and what is on the screen just won't quite match the image I have in my head. And all the tweaking in the world cannot get it exactly right.
~ Insecurity/self-doubt. At the same time, I worry that what I've done, no matter how hard I've worked on it/how perfect I feel I've made it, won't be enough. I hate being judged because I eternally feel that I will come up lacking. I'm often really shy in a group of people I know, but don't know so well, because I'm worried they won't like me/want to talk to me, or that I'll say the wrong thing.

An evil fairy pops up and curses you as a punishment for not inviting her to dinner; from now on you'll only be allowed to listen to one single genre of music for the rest of your life - which one is it? Classical. As there is so much variety to it that I don't think I'd get bored with it, despite being limited to just that genre.

Why exactly didn't you invite the fairy to dinner? I don't like mean/intolerant people/fairies.

If you would achieve one thing in your life, may it be for you, may it be for the rest of the world, what would it be? I would love to know that the kids I'm teaching are more tolerant/accepting and compassionate and that they love to learn because of my influence in their lives. And then I'd love for them to pass that on to others.

You're throwing a theme party; what is the theme you choose? I'm not good with themes. Maybe a "dress as your favorite character" theme party? As I have a lot of favorite characters from books, television, movies, etc.

Do you have a favourite composer? Not really? I have a handful I like. And I more tend to like particular songs. Eine Kleine Nachtmusik by Mozart is one of those songs, as is Vivaldi's Four Seasons. So, maybe Mozart? Or Vivaldi?

Is there any music that you cannot stand at all? I'm not a fan of rap. I can appreciate the artistry that goes into it. And as poetry, I also appreciate some of it. But I need for my music to have a melody. And I don't care for some of the hatred, misogyny, violence, etc. that I have heard in some of it.

Anything else you'd like to say? Nope! :)

Why exactly didn't you invite the fairy to dinner? Because I don't know her and it takes some time and effort before I start pullin' these walls down.
If you yould achieve one thing in your life, may it be for you, may it be for the rest of the world, what would it be? Complete and total financial stability -- the ability to live forever in an awesome house in a city/state I think is awesome where I can do my awesome hobbies.
You're throwing a theme party; what is the theme you choose? Nature/forest!
Do you have a favourite composer? No :(
