I found this floating around (adapted from blog to blog)- I've made minor changes to what I am able to do.

02. I will then tell what song lyric I think aptly characterizes you.
03. If you were a period in time, you would be:
04. I will try to find a single word that best describes you:
05. I'll tell you the most memorable moment I've had with you:
06. I will tell you what Mythological God/person/creature (Roman, Greek, Norse, etc.) you remind me of:
07. I'll then tell you something that I've always wondered about you:
08. I will ask you to equally put this in your journal:
This should provide distraction for a while.

The becoming (I think this is Tasha and am answering as such)
1- You are truly one of the most beautiful people in my life- you love others with all your strength and might. You have the heart of a poet and the soul of a song bird.

Then that's the only idea we'll ever have
But maybe if we are surrounded in beauty
Someday we will become what we see

it's harder yet to disregard it
I'd rather see the world from another angle
We are everyday angels
Be careful with me 'cause I'd like to stay that way" Jewel (I'm sensitive)
3- The Elizabethan era- beauty, poetry and art. Shakespear would've loved ya!
