Interesting...

Well, since I'm writing this ULTRA VIOLENT scene in my screenplay, I can say this. I tend to get up and plan out how the characters move around and get shot. Much like a one-man-show, I play all the roles out through movement and think about how the characters shoot and get shot. Then I sketch out the scene on paper and then translate the scene into words.

And for this other screenplay I've just started, I'm listening to ambient gothic music(Dead Can Dance) to set the atmosphere so I can write this particular story. Cop some of their music and see what I mean.

I go old school when I do my gung fu training. I place cups in the back of my hands as they're extended outward in front of me and while I'm in a horse stance.

There's more, but they're not for public consumption.


I'm Ghost!

Ghost Dragon

O.o

SHHHHHH! Don't tell anyone, but: *Whispers*

Sometimes, for no apparent reason...whether it be while drawing, or writing or even just sitting by myself doing nothing; I'll just start singing! I KNOW!! Don't ask me to explain it, sometimes lol, I'm not even aware that I'm doing it..(this is especially embarrassing at work while in the break room) However, I'm told that I'm easy on the ears..whatever the hell that means. SO I guess it's not all bad.

Depends on what your singing! If it's Britney Spears, you're getting blackmailed BIG TYME!!!!!

I have a bad habbit of rationalizing everything by talking to myself outloud. I usually do it at night when I'm alone so no one thinks I'm going crazy (even if I am). Over the years it has gotten worse to the point where I can have a full out conversation with myself at three in the morning.

Over the past year I've been growing out my hair, and this is the longest it's ever been. So naturally I mess around with it by making ponytails, turnips(the Jericho look from WCW), and (once in a blue moon) pigtails(and only when no one is around). Then of course there the 101 ways to comb my hair, but that's involves too much typing.

I develop new hobbies for myself out of the blue. First it was anime, then D&D, now comics. And it's not like I go about them casually, no I instantly begin to binge on them. (ex. two days after I started on collecting comics, I decided to bid on a lot of 72 X-Factor comics on Ebay, and won).

I eat chocolate and cheese sandwiches. That's a bar or Nestle (or Hershey, whichever I have around) and two slices of cheese on Wonderbread. Why and how I began eating this deleciously sweet treat I don't know anymore.

After watching a movie once or twice I can repeat the entire thing ver batum if I really liked it. Yet this ability only works for movies and tv, not school work.

And finally: I come here, and talk to you guys

if I EVER sing Britany Spears...You, Ghost, have my full permission to Kill me!!

I hate Marylin Manson, so i can't explain why i tap the beat/hum the tune to the chorus of Beautiful People all the bloody time. And by all the time i mean about once every 15 minutes, and sometimes for periods of up to an hour, ever since the wretched song was released back in...199?
No matter how hard i try, i can't help myself.

I guess it isn't really a passion, though i do hate it passionately.

I like vampires a lot.... not a passion but I like them.


TXK

I love guns.

A lot.

I take on random hobbies at random, too. No worries! It started a few years ago, I started playing Magic: The Gathering. Bought a LOT of cards and then stopped after a few months.. Hardly even play now. Can't say I've played a game in quite a while.

Darts. Chess. I suppose I'm just trying to broaden my horizons. I'm the biggest dork ever. Although, the only hobby I have that has never faded is really video games/media. No idea why. I'm a games fanatic. :P


Things that are strange? (I wouldn't call it a PASSION) I have a habit of trying random foods together. Genrally condiments of some kind. Salsa/Jelly/Mustard/etc.. You name it. I've mixed some strange things and generally get good results from it. The only bad experience in recent memory was the dare to mix ketchup and peanut butter..... I need to forget abou that one. Vile. If someone poses me with an idea, I have mo reason to turn it down. Give it a shot... If I have it on hand, I'll try it and report back ASAP.



I love listening to classical music when I have the house to myself. I tend to pick apart the instruments and such. I love elaborate music. I frequently take trips to the Bass Hall downtown to see symphonies. :)

Eh, not so strange, I'll come back if I think of something else.

I have always wanted to jump out of a cake and sing happy Birth Day to a Pesident. Naked...ooof course.

If you read my post, try a chocolate and cheese sandwich. You won't regret it. The layering goes bread, slice of cheese, chocolate bar (broken in half to cover the slice of cheese),cheese, bread.

I love Bacon and Icecream ,or Peperoni sticks and Icecream or any meat for that matter.

I haven't done it in ages, but I used to lock myself in my room every Sunday night, turn off the lights, listen to some extremely depressing music and read all the letters/cards my ex girlfriends gave me.

I have a big problem with being neat and tidy. I keep everything nice and neat and everytime I wake up in the morning. I look around my room and make sure everything is in the right place. Like when I change my cloath, play videogames or watch a DVD, I put everything back after I'am done with it right away. Hell, I'am like this with everything I own. I wish I wasn't so uptight about being neat and tidy but damnit, I can't help it!!! I just wish I didn't care how dirty or messy my stuff are.

Wow, MK SECRETS, thats harsh. Here's mine-
Sometimes I like to just act like Im a movie doing stunts when nobodys home, or a boxer, and yes i hit myself and make stupid noises. So what :D And Im an artist, so sometimes I like to fool around and draw stupid stuff, like george bush getting punched in the face by spongebob and at the same time rips a fart and wolverine is holding his nose and stuff..and then I draw really serious stuff too, like Jesus stabbing satan with a knife and all the Angels of Heaven are Fighting the Demons of Hell, its pretty cool.
And then I have this cool special power, Well I dont know if its really a power(dont think xmen ppl) Were If im in the dark, and I listen to a song in my head..and I concentrate..I can actually Hear the music play in the room...without even thinking it! Its freaky..and What it sounds like is my stereo's volume is turned down to 2 and playing what I was thinking..I dont consider it a passion, but it does seem strange.

When I crack my wrists and elbows ,it looks like I'm practicing wierd-ass martial arts ,because of the way my arms are flying around. I can also play "The Mexican Hat Dance" by cracking my wrists.



^_^^_^InuYasha^_^^_^

Hmm...well, although I'm not trained in martial arts, I like to practice something that looks like kung fu occaisionally (mainly a mizxture of shit picked up from video games, the Matrix, and various kata videos I've seen.

Also, whenever I'm in class, I like to write down lyrics and/or guitar tabs of songs I've recently been listening to in my notebook. (Note for non-guitarists: tabs are a type of music notation for guitar and bass. Guitarists post these abundantly on the internet to help other guitarists learn various songs. Sorry for that tangent, but if you weren't aware of this the next part probably wouldn't make much sense.) Sometimes the tabs I write in my notebook will be based on existing (online) tabs; sometimes they'll be of songs I've figured out myself; or sometimes they may be just an idea of how a song might be played, and I'll see if I'm right when I get home. Also I sometimes write tabs for riffs I write in my head; I generally have a good idea of how a riff will sound just from the spacing of notes. In fact, I wrote some of my favorite of my own riffs this way.

I'll probably think of more weird "passions" or obsessions later.

Nuff said.

I liked to carry on conversations between the characters of games I play. Especially RPGs. In Final Fantasy X once I had my party constantly killing each other because of an argument that had broken out between Auron and Rikku about who's getting more levelling.

Ghaleon Wrote: I was thinking today about things i love to do that if i told others about it they think it strange of me, and then i thought u know its been awhile since Ghaleon has made a thread like this one, im long over due to make one, so here goes... My passions that i have that others would find weird is... Late at night i like to lay in the dark in my room and listen to either classical music or other genres and think of how things might be in the future, how things where in the past and of people that are dead and gone that i miss... I love to play movies and video games and stuff out in my head in the way that i would like to see them, but at the same time my hands move out of a nervous reaction from it, my parents hate it but i like it... I love to let my hair down and throw it over the front of my face while i play guitar so that while i play i can block everything out and be one with the music i create and feel the raw energy from it... this is just a few of mine, so lets hear some of urs...

I don't play guitar or have that long of hair (atm), but otherwise, yeah I do that stuff.

Let's see other things others might deem strange...

I wish that I could go to every person on Earth and make them not hate.

I talk in chatrooms regardless of getting a status position, and am always myself.

I almost never lie. I used to be a habitual liar.

I actually care about the people that I come in contact with. I worry for them, kinda silly I suppose, but it's nice to have friends when you didn't have them growing up.

I really am an emotional guy. Just that I can turn it off. Like when I'm strangling someone.

I wish I could get to know the people I meet online better.

I want to learn Japanese because I have always wanted to live in Japan. Ever since I was a little kid. I just want to move there, meet someone maybe have a family. That's all my big plans. Teach English so that I can qualify for a work visa, and just be happy with a loving wife and maybe a kid or two. A modest house would do me fine. Nothing expensive.

I love to write. I really, just want to be someone's muse/co-writer.

I need somebody hug. The co-dependency of marriage scarred me.

Funny that as I'll do a similar thing, only I'll have the music playing ludly and sing along to it. I'll be dancing to the song too or maybe writing something. the music usually helps for inspiration or ideas.

Or if there's a tune in my head, it'll get whistkled, hummed or sung.
