64%How Addicted to Blogging Are You?

and so I'm going to be leaving for Annwfn in a couple of hours. go me? o_O"
I really need to start blogging about what's going on up there, with photos and stuff ^__^

I'm bored and I decided that I was going to start doing daily memes (which I find at TheDailyMeme.com).
So for today, it's Take5 Tuesday! ^__^

1. My username is ______ because ______.
My username is shizu_bara because it's the user name I use everywhere.
I believe I started using this name back in High School, probably my Jr Senior year. I wanted something that no one else had, so I took my "I only know what I've heard in anime" knowledge of Japanese and created the name "Silent Rose", which I'm very sure doesn't really translate as that. (and even if it's close I'm sure it doesn't make any sense and probably sound stupid.)

2. My name is _____ because ______.
My name is Laura because my dad wanted to name me Lourdes, after my mom, but mom thought that would be too confusing so they named me Laura, which sounds similar. ok, not really, but that's what they say o_O"

3. My journal is titled ____ because ____.
My journal title is Shizu_Bara@livejournal.com because.... er... that's what I wanted to call it o_O"

4. My friends page is called ____ because ____.
My Friends Page. Yeah, not too original.

5. My default userpic is ____ because ____.
because I think it's pretty ^_^

6. My LJ name (you know how you can change that sort of sub-name thing?) is ________ because ________.
n/a


P.S.
We're staying at the Hampton Inn for a 'girls night out' since the boys are having they're 'Mens Mysteries' up in Annwfn right now. (we get our Womens Mysteries next weekend)

I'm not sure how I feel about this o_O"

and for anyone interested, I updated my Second Life Blog. go me?
