What is your favorite motion-picture soundtrack? It's a tie between "Amelie," a French film, and the "Garden State" soundtrack. I love "Amelie" a bunch because Yann Tiersen did the music and it makes me happy. And I like listening to "Garden State" when I feel mellow and chill.
Have you ever been outside of the U.S.? I was born in Japan, so yes. It's fun visiting, because my family is crazy over there and get themselves drunk, and then we go to karaoke bars.
What do you consider the most aggravating thing that you have to do every day? I'd have to say getting out of bed in the morning for school.
Have you ever gotten lost? Where? Once I got lost in Central Park because I was trying to explain to the driver where Panera was, and we ended up wayyy off.
What makes a good movie for you? A good movie for me is one where I can get tons of funny quotes, lots of happy feelings and maybe a good love triangle. An example I can think of is "Mean Girls," just because of all the quotes my friends and I say from it.
Hottest man alive? I'd go on a date with Johnny Depp any day.
Do do you consider yourself lucky and do you believe in luck? Sometimes I find myself in situations that I could consider unlucky, but lucky at the same time because the ultimate worst didn't happen. I believe in luck but it really depends on the mood I'm in.
Do digital and film photography both have the same effect? Well, I've never really worked with film photography, because I just have a digital camera held together with a piece of duct tape; but I like both, because digital pictures can be edited into really cool things, and film has a unique "real" feel to the picture. I think film photography may hold more emotion, but they both basically have the same effect.
Coffee or tea? Where is the best place to have it? I don't drink either--I'm all about apple juice and soda.
Any weird habits? How many? I have a million-bajillion weird habits. One is if I'm walking behind someone with their tag sticking out or hood flipped in the wrong way, I'll fix it. I also enjoy spending long hours Googling random pictures, trying to find the coolest one out of the hundreds of results.
If you were to disappear forever, what would you leave behind to let people remember you? Probably my ratty old black Converse shoe that I splatter-painted. Simple, yes--but I think it represents me well.
