To anyone,

-What's your favorite Disney movie? (including Pixar)
-Who's your favorite Disney hero and why?
-Who's your favorite Disney villain and why?

1. my favorite disney movie is and will always be sleeping beauty! as for pixar... hmmm, probably wall-e. or toy story.
2. i'm not sure actually - anyone who fights for good and is super determined to achieve their goals?
3. ursula, always. mostly because i don't actually see her as evil - if you ask me, triton is the real villain of that movie. but she's also fabulous.

What was/is your favorite part of being staff and would u trade it away for ur dream job?

i love helping others, so i suppose that's my favorite part ^^
i don't have a dream job - i have no idea where i want to work in the future. i am studying information technology however, though mostly because i didn't know where else to attend.

I love The Lion King! I honestly haven't seen enough Disney movies recently to have any favorite characters.

I like getting things done! Nothing feels better than seeing the number of reports go down and feeling like you've accomplished something. I'm also thankful for the experience that CS has given me. I don't really have a dream job, but I don't think I'd enjoy my job if I didn't have some leftover time for CS.

Paper Towns by John Green. It helped me realize that we're all just human, and that we tend to over-romanticize people and give them more credit than they're worth, just for merely existing.

I'm just happy to see comments or actions that show appreciation; demand doesn't matter to me. I was recently looking through the hoard world records thread and noticed a few records held by users who had collected my pets. That was really cool! (:

I use FireAlpaca for drawing and GIMP very occasionally for certain brushes, effects, or text (though I hand write for second gen adoption images).

I work for a huge service company, specifically in university campus dining. I don't have any passion for it or interest in any particular field as far as a traditional career path. I'm a fiction writer and poet; my real life job just pays the bills.

Anything by Tamora Pierce. Reading fantasy about strong female protagonists during my formative years was essential to who I am now. One of the first books I read by her had the quote, “Why do boys say someone acts like a girl as if it were an insult?”

Some other great ones are:
“I distrust any advice that contains the words 'ought' or 'should'.”
“I think as a human being. Men don't think any differently from women--they just make more noise about being able to.”
“It's harder to heal than it is to kill.”
“Didn't they realize that the only way to change things was to act?”
“There are two classes of people in the world, the destroyers and the builders. I want to build, not destroy. You need to ask yourself who you're going to be.”

Oh gosh, that is a super hard question. I love all the series for different reasons but I'd have to say Protector of the Small is my favorite Tortall series; Kel was just everything I needed when I first read those books. I just love the queer rep in the Emelan universe, also?? Like, even if it's not always perfect it's at least there. Honestly I better not get too started lol.
