My plans for Christmas Day are to take some time off work, drive 2 hours to visit my folks, hang out, give and receive gifts, veg out, eat good food, relax, and wish I wouldn't have to get back to work so soon. Did I mention I'm going to sit around and chill?
Have you ever been overseas?

The ONE place on Earth??? The ONE place?? I can't pick just one!! Really! I basically want to travel around pretty much the whole world at some point if I can, but at best I can narrow it down to maybe 3 places! (okay and not including NZ!) AUSTRAILA, THE UK (don't make me pick where right now!), and JAPAN! (in no particular order) But I definitely want to visit ITALY (especially Rome, now that I'm studying Latin, and Sicily as well). But I'd want to go to soooooooooo many other places, including places away from civilization that are very secluded. And that's my answer as simple as I can seem to make it!
If you could learn (or find out)about anything in the world, about absolutely anything, in the past or present, what would it be and why?

That's too hard! I have too many answers!!! - I'd like to know about 1,324,985 reasons why Tolkien wrote certain things in the books.
- How to do archery (I've wanted to learn since I was like 4!!!!
- Why the sky is blue (ok maybe not that... :
- What Jessica Simpson was thinking when they showed her on the last SNL...I didn't see it, but I heard that it was crazy...
But anyway, you get the point. The list is simply too long!! What is the one movie that you really love, but it's just a tad embarrassing that you like it (we won't laugh, believe me that I could tell you a few. )

Arsenic and Old Lace. (Cary Grant: "You mean to say there's a BODY in the windowseat?!" Sweet little old lady: "Yes dear! But don't let it trouble you. Forget you ever saw it.") ;D ;D ;D
If you could be an extra in "The Hobbit," assuming New Line ever gets the rights to make it, what would you be?

(I LOVE Cary Grant, which is weird that I've never seen that movie...it sounds hilarious though. I can hear it in my head lol) Unfortunetly I've never read The Hobbit (plan on doing it VERY soon...I read FotR, followed by TTT, RotK (in between all those reading The Silmarillion : , and I plan on reading The Hobbit last...totally out of order, but hey...whatever. ) But actually I just looked at a website that quickly gives a description of each of the characters and these two sound pretty good: Beorn: Skin-changer. Can change into large bear. Kills Bolg the Goblin in the Battle of Five Armies. and Bard: Killed Smaug the Dragon. Direct descendant of the last king of Dale. Becomes King of Dale at the end. Is Bard where you got your name from?

Actually no. I was running a big search for the word 'hedgehog' in elvish. I found bardukan, so that is my name for an elvish site. ;D Did you know I'm the missing Hedgie?

lol No, I didn't know. I've never been on that site before.
Do you really play a hedgehog there?

Yes, I am a hedgehog. I am a wizard in that chat program, but since I have been on shared computers since late summer, I haven't been able to access it much.
What's your favorite animal?

Whoa...now there's a question with vast possibilities lol. I love both fauna and flora to death, but I'll say that ONE of my favorite animals is the Bengal Tiger...actually, any sub-species of tiger I love. I used to really be into Lions as well. But even before then I loved the Cheetah. I've always loved to run, so it made a lot of sense to be in love with the fastest mammal on land. ;D The Big Cats have always held my fascination since I was very young. They are just the most amazing creatures. I hate how so many of them are critically endangered!!
What is your favorite flower?

That's hard to answer also hehe! For looks, I like the classical beauty of the rose (almost any color), I suppose, but that's probably tied with wisteria. For smell, I like 4-o-clocks.
Have you ever shot an arrow from a bow?

That question is asked at such an ironic time!! I was just a few minutes before discussing with my best friend how lucky she is to know how to shoot!! It is really a dream of mine to learn. But to answer your question...no, I've never shot an arrow before. What about fencing? Have you ever tried that before?
