嘿 Fanpoppers!
I know I'm still a rookie at this interview thing, but I'm starting to get the hang of it (I think) and to be honest I'm also developing a taste for asking a lot of questions. Muahahaha!..ahem..anyway..
She's a great individual, with interesting ideas, strong beliefs and she's very funny too. She has a way with words that lets her express her opinions very clearly and she's constantly mediating when some situations get out of hand; I'm sure a lot of 你 have seen it around Fanpop. She's a joy to talk to and most definitely made of awesome.
Anyway, she took some time out from her very busy schedule to answer a few questions, so we'd get to know her a bit better...so here's what I found out 'chatting' with Cinders...
Hi Carly! Thanks for agreeing to do this interview.
-Okay, the standard 问题 here is: What's your 潮流粉丝俱乐部 story?
My story is a classic one. A lot of 链接 on the old tv-links site ended me here and I found that things were so neatly tagged. I saw the 民意调查 in the side of the screen watching Ugly Betty one 日 and 说 to myself, "Hey, Bradford is NOT 更多 evil than Willamina!" and signed up for the privilege of answering picks. And it just spiraled out of control from there.
-You have a way with words, so try to describe yourself in 3 words:
Capricious Child-Like Traveler (is that three 或者 four?)
Note: Is that a trick question?
-Traveler huh? Ok, 你 have traveled a lot, right? Which has been your 最喜爱的 place and why?
I am Egyptian at 心 and often in action. They are one of my 最喜爱的 kinds of people as a culture because they are so over the 最佳, 返回页首 and genuine. When 你 meet an acquaintance on the 街, 街道 they will stop 你 and demand to know about your entire life, family and how your job is going. When they ask how you're doing, they really mean it. They have a sort of "inshallah" attitude, 或者 a very laid back sort of "if it happens, it happens" which can be very soothing 或者 frustrating depending on the circumstances but it's always fun. I 爱情 the food, shisha, and even just the smell of the air, which is mostly sand and car exhausts, but still... Yeah, it's great... Sorry, I can go on for hours about Egypt. But I 爱情 Belgium and Seattle too. They definitely make the 最佳, 返回页首 three.
-Awesome! So, what's the most important thing you've learned 由 traveling?
That even if 你 think 你 know a place, 你 never really do. And that everyone is worth meeting. Even if 你 don't get along 或者 disagree, it's nice to get a radically different perspective on the world.
-Where are 你 from?
This is an impossible 问题 to answer.
Note: As corny as it sounds, I guess 首页 is where the 心 is, right?
-What are 你 most passionate about?
As far as hobbies go... Theater, Writing, and Politics
Note: Politics? Hobby?..we are so on different wavelengths..j/k!
-Okay, tell us, which would be your 最佳, 返回页首 Five spots:
*Low whistle* only five?
-Yup..only five, therein lies the challenge...
Er, in no particular order,link, link, 潮流粉丝俱乐部 Users, link, and... link. Yeah, I'm a ape-lover.
Note: Aren't we all? :)
-Of the spots you've created, which one are 你 most proud of?
Folks may think the 辩论 spot, but in fact it's the link Spot.
-And there we were thinking it was the 辩论 spot, we've been punk'd, hahaha! Anyway, why that spot?
I just 爱情 what it stands for and finding 链接 that can spread the word and help improve them. Though the 辩论 Spot really took off fast, and has seen some great discussions.
-What's your 潮流粉丝俱乐部 forte?
Er... I like 写作 soapboxes. I feel like I've accomplished something when they're done.
-I personally 爱情 your link, I think it was very honest..but tell us which of your soapboxes gave 你 that sense of accomplishment?
Generally any 文章 I had to do research for 或者 check my notes... CSI's "link" took some constructing...link... "link"... "link," that one took me a few days. Personal stories are sometimes harder to write though, because facts are just facts. Some of my 更多 personal soapboxes still make me a little nervous having them out there. So I won't name them. :oP. But I've written 文章 for entertainment purposes too. I've written them for link, link, link, and link. Yeah, good times, good times...
-What's the one movie 或者 book, that 你 爱情 and recommend?
Ah, this is too hard... HBO's link (available at the spot of the same name). Also, Mark Z. Danielewski's link. And Card's link. And Wag the Dog with DeNiro and Hoffman. What, did 你 just say one?
-An obsession...
My dog. Yeah, I have a bad case of 小狗 love. I even contemplated making him his own Facebook.
Wow, his own Facebook!..right, because he... needs..it? LOL! j/k!
-Okay, most of us know about your famous cookies, but for those who don't: What's in them? Love?
Ooh, if I answer that I may have to kill you. And I really would not enjoy killing you. I plead the fifth.
Note: Oh well, I thought I'd give it a shot; sorry guys!
-Do 你 march to the beat of your own 鼓手 或者 do 你 go with the flow?
Well, I fall into routines easily and I feel like a 羊 when I run to class with a few hundred other students... But I have my own mind and theories and 爱情 being spontaneous. So... a bit of both?
-What's the craziest thing you'd do for for money?..Umm, let's say..a million?
The craziest PG-13 rated thing I would do for money is probably... Hm, a million, 你 say? I once jumped into a lake in the middle of December fully clothed just on a dare, so... Probably something beyond that. I would eat strange foods, even insects... unless it was a cockroach. I have a pathological fear of cockroaches.
-What's the one thing 你 can't believe still happens in the world?
That people still support George W 衬套, 布什 for the sole reason that he lets them snowplow in Yellowstone Park (true story. Colorful people in Eastern Washington).
-You have one wish. What do 你 wish for?
World peace... Nah, just kidding. Probably to be happy in the long run, no matter where I end up.
Note: Good one! :)
-In your opinion, what does 潮流粉丝俱乐部 have that 你 can't find in any other site?
A 99.99% welcoming community.
-Favorite thing about 潮流粉丝俱乐部 and fanpoppers:
The Love.
-Let's play a game of word association. Are 你 up for it? Do I have a choice?
Umm, no! I was just being nice, haha! j/k!

(My mind went weird places with that one)
Note: I wonder...
-Who is your hero?
你 know, I find my 超能英雄 in the strangest places... I admire confidence and being comfortable with who 你 are. I also admire those true diamonds in the rough that seem to permanently hide in your peripheral vision. Oh, and myself. Also... my brother. But don't tell him that.
-All is fair in 爱情 and war, so...
...sleeping with the enemy is strategy, not promiscuity.
Note: Wow! Very creative answer! I 爱情 it!
-A word to the wise:
Oh, so many good quotes, none of which belong to me, but... “Years 以前 my mother used to say to me, she’d say, ‘In this world, Elwood, 你 must be’ - she always called me Elwood – ‘In this world, Elwood, 你 must be oh so smart 或者 oh so pleasant.’ Well, for years I was smart. I recommend pleasant. 你 may quote me.”—Elwood Dowd (Jimmy Stewart), Harvey (1950).
