Leia or (Jaime Lyn--as I am known in the fanfic world) Leia is my hebrew name (on my hebrew birth certificate) and long time nickname (though usually, "princess" preceeds it--although now I forget who started that...) and Jaime Lyn is my american name. (But yes, I am am american born and everything. Native New Yorker who now resides in Florida...Go Knicks! Go Panthers! *grin*) What country/state do you live in? I think I just answered that one... lol. I live in the US. Florida, right now---soon to be Orlando. (woo-hoo--land of Mickey and too many tourists--HA HA) How old are you? 19---legal for everything except drinking. I can smoke, vote, fight and get killed in a world war, but I can't drink. Isn't life ironic sometimes? Are you married, do you have children of your own? Nope, and I don't plan on it. I'm pretty career-goal oriented. What's your favourite episode? Why? Oh my gosh--that's a hard one. I have favorite ones for different occasions. "Triangle": When I need a shipper pick me up (and a laugh) You know how many times I've watched that kiss?? "Bad Blood": When I just need to laugh. I LOVE that one. I know all the dialogue. "Memento Mori": It's just a beautifully written episode, not to mention that Gillian is a brilliant actress--- and it really shows here. "One Breath" and "Redux II" for the same reasons. "Ice": I always watch it when I cuddle up in my PJ's and turn all the lights off. It was the first "spooky" episode I had ever watched, and I watched it right before a big competition the next day---it was great. When and why did you become a 'shipper/anti-shipper? Always a shipper--right from the beginning. (Which, for me, was when FX started re-running all the eps during the pre-5th season hiatus.--I never had time to watch it before then, though I really wanted to.) I saw "The Pilot" the night before my first day of school my senior year (high school.) I was nervous and getting all my things together, and I just so happened to have FX's "debut of the X Files" on the TV. Anyhow, I was mezmerized and I couldn't wait to see another episode the next day. I loved it. The FIRST thing I noticed was how well Mulder and Scully "clicked." The feeling grew as I watched more episodes. Who is your favourite character? Scully. hands down, Scully. She reminds me a little of myself, and so I love that I can identify with that. (half of me is SO Scully, skeptic and strong---never crying, etc, and the other half is more like her alter-ego, Gillian Anderson. Telling stories and jokes, lighthearted when I want to be, yet very guarded and private.) Do you read fanfic? What kind? Of course I read fanfic!!! *grin* I LOVE anything by Karen Rasche, Jill Selby, Kelli Rocherolle, and Rachel Howard. One of the BEST fics out there is "Road To Nowhere." It's like an epic. But there are so many others--I could go on and on... But of course, any MSRs, I read... *grin* Do you have a fanfic recomendation? Oh gosh... so many...Ummm... "Antidote" by Karen Rasche and Rachel Howard. "The Forgotten Ones," (I forget the author) "Carnac Obsessions," "ELS" by Dawson Rambo, "Paper Saints" By Jill Selby (Ok, so it's not finished, but it's damn good...) "The Offspring" by Kelli Rocherolle, oh gosh, I know I'm leaving some out--if I am, forgive me... And anything else you think you'd like to include. Ok, details about me: What to include... ummm... Well, I have light green eyes and auburn (chameleon--as my friends call it, because it gets lighter during the summer) hair. I'm fairly short (wish I were taller--when I shop, the size 2's are always either ripped, stained or gone---not that I can ever reach them anyways----lol) I'm also a twirler (Color guard---if there are any "band groupies" out there who know what that is,) I maintain a web page (or I USUALLY do... right now it's undergoing, umm... renovations, I guess you could say,) I write fanfic (if you've read "A Simple Kiss" or "The Way I Saw It," two of my more popular ones, then you know that,) I'm currently a psych major who is considering changing her major to creative writing...and ummm.... let's see... Oh! I know! One of the coolest things that's ever happened to me happened the other day. I was walking down the street, and someone stopped me because they thought I looked exactly like "Scully--what's her face--That woman on the X files." (the way they put it) I was flattered, to say the LEAST, and I thought that was very cool. Well, there's really nothing else to say. I hope everyone gives Gertie (and the wonderful Sherrie) a hand for maintaining this page as well as they have been... *grin* |
