Eva's journal

"The problem with LJ: we all think we are so close, but really we know nothing about each other.

I want you to ask me something you think you should know about me. Something that should be obvious, but you have no idea about.

Ask away. Then post this in your LJ and find out what people don't know about you."

This could be interesting.

You belong in Time Enough For Love. You are older
than you look. Your wit and wisdom are prized
by others. People throw themselves on you,
begging to be with you.


Which Heinlein Book Should You Have Been A Character In?
brought to you by Quizilla

liadethornegge had this test in her journal and since I'm a total Robert Heinlein-nut I had to do it. And what do we end up with? One of the all-time favourites.

Name a CD you own that no-one else on your friends list does:

This is too simple, since I have quite a lot of swedish music.
Lasse Dahlquist, a collection

Name a book you own that no-one else on your friends list does:

"Textilien aus Archäologie und Geschichte. Festschrift für Klaus Tidow"

Name a movie you own on DVD/VHS/whatever that no-one else on your friends list does:

The british TV-series "The young ones" from the 80s

Name a place that you have visited that no-one else on your friends list has:

Inspired by marymont I did this test

You are a RAVENCLAW!

As a Ravenclaw and as an NTJ, you are intellectual,
independent, and value excellence in yourself
and others. You are naturally curious, and can
usually see many sides to the same argument or
issue. You are driven to acquire knowledge and
set very high standards for yourself and
others. You excel at and enjoy strategizing,
planning, and focusing on the big picture. You
enjoy being challenged, and can accept
constructive criticism without taking it
personally. You are excellent at organizing
yourself and others.


Hogwarts Sorting Hat: Based on Myers-Briggs Personality Typing
brought to you by Quizilla

You are a Silmaril! You are a beatiful person
inside and out, and all adore you. You are very
important to many people, and though trouble
seems to follow you wherever you go, it is not
always your fault. You love the beauty of the
heavens and bright up everyone's day. You are
the center of attention, and not many people
ever dislike you. All in all you are a
beautiful person who is true to yourself.

Take the Dante Inferno Hell Test

So, I'm a virtuous pagan. I guess it's as good as it get when you're not christian.

So I did the same test as Mira Zandar and this is the result:

Old school punk! You just say what you have to say
regardless of what everyone else thinks!
You're one of my most favourite types of
music... You're raw and uncut! You're
surrounded by hype...just don't let it make you
go insane...


What genre of rock are you?
brought to you by Quizilla

I guess I can live with that, 'though I'm more of an "old punk" than an "old school punk". But it doesn't really fit with my records with 40s jazz, early music, british heavy metal from the 80s (not that I ever listen to that anymore), folk and the massive amount of "The Church".
But "the Clash" probably is the best rock band ever.

I took this from Jen and Amberlaine. I think it's interesting to know what people like about themselves, what they're afraid of etc.

Which tarot card are you?

I am not very surprised, since love is a guiding force in my life. Not the only though, since I'm fairly practical and down to earth most of the time.

I'm feeling better now that I have slept and that's good because I'm giving a lecture today: Nordic medieval social and political history 1100-1350. It's for the department of History's evening course in medieval history.
