The Bookacy Family Alphabet Journal

Okay, because I'm totally a follower, I must jump the bandwagon and make a drinking game for my main story.

What Sims 2 Aspiration Are You?

Popularity You like being liked, simply put! It makes you happy to know that others enjoy your presence. You want to have a group of friends who like you for who you are, and will be there for you when you're down -- and when you're having a good time. However big or small this group is (although it's likely big), they are the ones who keep you going from day to day and it's hard to imagine what life would be like without them. You're probably the life of most parties, and you know how to keep the good times going. In the game, Popularity sims often want to throw parties, be best friends with other sims, and maintain a good reputation. Popularity sims are a bit like Family sims in that they want to keep in touch with those they care about, and maintain strong relationships.

So... I'm a one-outgoing-point popularity sim? Well that sounds functional! :D

I suppose I do have some of the traits of a pop sim, too. *ponders* And the alternatives obviously pointing to knowledge in this one were mostly weird. :P (And yeah, I like books and stuff, but no thank you, I don't particularly want to be bitten by a wolf or hit by a lightning.) Well, I suppose this could give me the secondary I haven't been able to decide on. :) So, Knowledge/Pop, maybe.

Alright, let me just jump off the cliff, maybe the bandwagon is still underneath... I dunno how well I'll be able to answer these for my characters, but I can try. :)

Give me one of the characters from my story and I will tell you:
* How I feel about this character
* All the people I ship romantically with this character
* My non-romantic OTP for this character
* My unpopular opinion about this character
* One thing that will happen to this character in the future of my story.

Okay, so I had to jump the bandwagon and try this - especially as this is clearly a natural language processing (NLP) application and in real life I study computational linguistics in grad school. So really, I could not resist this toy!

I must say I'm very flattered by the result. :) I've read the Harry Potter series several times, and have enjoyed it very much. I wouldn't be surprised to find that I've picked up influence from there, really. But anyway, I'm definitely taking this as a compliment (assuming that a computer program can compliment you).

I pasted a longish excerpt from my newest chapter for this, so this I guess reflects my style as it is now. I can kind of see a few things that would point towards Rowling there, like the mixture of formal (Sal) and informal (my current college kids) speaking styles and so.

Anyway, yay! :)

So I've been tagged it seems, by docnerd and leaths. It's meme time!

A) People who have been tagged must write their answers on their blog and replace any question they don't like with a new, original question.

B) Tag eight people. Don't refuse to do that. Don't tag who tagged you.

Nah, everyone's been tagged already I guess. Well, if you haven't, then tag, you're it!

( Meme here! )

Now to some reading and comments I hope. And the dishes.
