It works like this:
The first person interviewed would be for 1 week answering all the questions we make... Then, when this week is over, he/she'd choose another person to be interviewed...

This is a nice way to know more about our friends from here!

So... I've decided that each person should get their own topic for this to keep it as neat as possible...

And... as it has been suggested I go first... here is my topic... go ahead and ask, you have until next Sunday to figure out all the things you want to know about me.


...go!

favorite color and why?

whutnot wrote:

favorite color and why?

Ah! Excellent question. I have three...

To wear: Black, because it makes me feel comfortable, safe, and guarded, and it's also a relaxing color for me, being a person that has a lot of secrets, it makes me feel very secure.

To look at: Purple, I just think it's such a beautiful color, and of course, it is a mix of two opposing colors, and being a very inbetween sort of person, it's a color that makes me feel grounded. My old bed was black leather and I had black sheets and purple comforter, needless to say, I always slept very, very well.

That I just like: A slight brighter shade of sky blue, I have two sheets of that color covering my windows because it reminds me of the ocean with the shadows created in the daylight and the sky when it's nighttime, and that a lot of what's inbetween the ocean and the sky is not important.

1. What's your full name?

2. What Tarja means to you?

3. Why did you have the ideia to create this forum?

4. Do you consider yourself as a Tarjaholic?

5. If you could choose an animal to be in another life, which animal would be and why?

-Thanks for the lovely and gorgeous!

I shall go for the humdrum, the frequently asked questions, because I can.

• 1.) What is your absolute favourite Tarja song and why?
  
• 2.) If a wealthy billionaire's car/limousine broke down in front of your house, you took him in until it was fixed, and then he wanted to thank you by paying for whatever it is in the world that you want to do - what would you do?
  
• 3.) What's the wackiest aspiration you ever had as a child?
  
• 4.) If you could physically have any animal in your home then which furry, scaly, etc. would you like to have as a pet?
  
• 5.) Are you superstitious and if, yes, then about what?
  

1. What's your full name?

My full name is *deep breath* Diana Nathalia Rios Campos... (yes, my last names mean Rivers Fields... how hippy...)

2. What Tarja means to you?

I could answer this and say 'everything,' but that's not the real answer, so I will be very honest and raw.

I found Tarja when I was a very young girl, and even being such a young girl, I had a lot of things to deal with that kids that age should never have to go through. Tarja's voice was something that inspired me, and made me want to make something of myself. I grew up through my teenage years listening to Tarja, and that was a relief and a comfort. One time I was in such a bad place, that I told myself that I should live one more day to hear that voice again, that as long as I could follow that voice, there was hope for me. When Nightwish fired Tarja, it absolutely broke my heart and I think as many of us did, I felt that I was in lingo, but the way she expressed herself with such class, and continued with such determination was absolutely inspiring, so at that point, I resolved to change my life and try to be happy, instead of wallowing in self-pity and misery brought on to me by others' actions, when I had no place being there, in such a dark, dark place. So on December 28th, 2008, 3 days after my birthday, I got a tattoo on the inside of my left wrist that would remind me to breathe when times were tough, that no matter how tough things ever got, there would be hope in that voice. I straightened out my life as much as I could, and in 2009, I made the life-changing decision to move to a different country, in part, to get away from all the things happening where I was, and on the other hand, because Tarja actually plays in Monterrey. So, I have been a fan of Tarja for nearly 10 years, and in those 10 years, she has been more than a lot of important people in my every day life have been. So, to me, Tarja means life.

3. Why did you have the ideia to create this forum?

Well, a lot of you probably saw the Facebook note I wrote explaining my uh, dissatisfaction with the OF. The idea for the forum came a bit after, when I decided to be proactive and create a place where I can express myself and talk about Tarja not wearing her wedding ring and wardrobe malfunctions and her teeth that make her look like a cute little squirrel if I want to without anyone being all "zomg shut up you iz a disgrace!!!' about it. So here we all are, I hope you all feel the freedom of speech that seeps from the purple outlines of this forum.

4. Do you consider yourself as a Tarjaholic?

*looks at answer 2, then looks at question 4* Yes, yes I do.

5. If you could choose an animal to be in another life, which animal would be and why?

I think I would be a cat, there's absolutely no way that in another life I'm not moody.

• 1.) What is your absolute favourite Tarja song and why?
  
  My favorite Tarja song is Underneath, because the words in it has been true for me more times that I can count. Especially "the more I show, the less they know."
  
  It is also true that you always have to find a way to keep your sanity, even when everything around you and the people around you are in ruins.
  
  And one she didn't write:
  
  Until Dawn (Angels of Light) ...that song can always fit my mood, no matter what it happens to be.
  
  
• 2.) If a wealthy billionaire's car/limousine broke down in front of your house, you took him in until it was fixed, and then he wanted to thank you by paying for whatever it is in the world that you want to do - what would you do?
  
  *smirk* I would ask him to gather all the people in this forum, and then buy a private concert show from Tarja for all of us and give us all enough money to go see every single show in Tarja's WLB tour with accommodations and everything.
  
  
• 3.) What's the wackiest aspiration you ever had as a child?
  
  Hmm... I'm not sure, I think at some point I wanted to be an actress, I took theater lessons for a few years and was in a few plays thanks to my Godmother.
  
  
• 4.) If you could physically have any animal in your home then which furry, scaly, etc. would you like to have as a pet?
  
  I'd like a huge aquarium with various forms of marine life.
  
  
• 5.) Are you superstitious and if, yes, then about what?
  

I don't think I'm really superstitious... maybe the ladder rule, I never walk under ladders just to be on the safe side.

I'm wearing capris jeans and a black sleeveless blouse.

2.) Tell us about your drunkest memory...

I was playing a Tarja/Nightwish drinking game with two friends, and we got so drunk that I don't remember anything, all I know is that I woke up in the middle of the stairs wearing a black dress, my pj pants were halfway on, there were Spanish cigarettes scattered all over the place, Kate was face down in my living room and her face was busted, and Emily's upper body was hanging off the couch... oh, and somehow there was a 3 liter bottle of Finlandia emptied in my hand.

3.) Ever do anything illegal? If so, tell us in great detail.

8.) So Tarja is extremely drunk and she comes onto you. What do you do?

Uhhh... first, I have a heart attack, then I die, then I come back to life, then I uh, politely decline and walk her to her hotel room where she can uhm, get some sleep.

9.) So MARCELO is extremely drunk and comes onto you. What do you do NOW?

I uh, most likely would uh, escort him back to his hotel room, to make sure he doesn't hurt himself and uh, politely decline his advances and then tuck him in real tight.

10.) So someone offers you money to shave your head. How high would the price have to be?

Damn, uhhh... I'd have to be able to follow Tarja around like a real stalker is meant to do and not have to worry about how much I spend on it.

Obscured:

I would go swimming with sharks, I would visit as many places as I could, meet a few people that I know online but have never met in person, and I would accelerate the process of meeting Tarja.

I'm torn between violin and piano. I love them both so much.

Hmm... I love all Tarja bootlegs. xD There was a recorded concert in Ostrava 08, I believe, that I really love.

Love. Passion, hatred, happiness, sadness, and every little emotion comes from or because of love. Love fuels life.

Puffin:

# 1.) What's your biggest fear and is there a story behind why it frightens you?

My biggest fear is that I'll fall too deep to come back up.

# 2.) Have you ever been followed home after walking some place by a weird creeper? If yes then details, please.

You and your creepers. No, I don't think I've ever been followed home by a creeper. Sorry to disappoint.

# 3.) Have you ever wished that you were adopted? By any famous person?

Hmm... not seriously...

# 4.) During your school years, was there ever a teacher that you had an almost obsessive crush on?

Ohhhh yeah. xD I'm still friends with her.

# 5.) Who are you top three girl crushes?

Hmm... I'm actually crushing more on boys right now. Sorry. xD


# 6.) What's your favourite book that you've ever read?

Veronika Decides to Die & The Alchemist by Paulo Coelho

# 7.) Can you do anything weird that most people can't do? If yes then explain.

As a writer, I get to live the lives of several different people in several different universes that are somewhat equal to our own. Sometimes I'm so caught up in them that I don't make sense at all, so I really need to find space for myself somewhere in there.

For instance, once I was writing a story about a woman who left her country for a place totally unknown to her, and her friend didn't pick her up at the train station, anyway, long story short, after 6 pm pr so when it started getting dark, all these thieves and thugs would come out and rob and kill people etc. While in the middle of writing this, I'd happened to go out with some friends and we were out at a car wash sitting on a bench while the people washed her car, etc, and it started getting dark and I completely freaked out and asked her what time it was, then a moment later I realized I wasn't actually living the story. It was really odd, so not a lot of people get to experience that, is it weird enough? xD

# 8.) Ever cursed out a teacher or parent in a foreign language to be smart only to have had them know the language so they knew exactly what you said?

Not really, I always cursed teachers out in their own language. xD

# 9.) If there is ever a zombie apocalypse in your lifetime, how long do you think you'd survive?

A zombie apocalypse. Shit. I'd probably run to my friend Javi's house and have him protect me. He's good at playing Resident Evil and things like that. xD

# 10.) If you could travel back in time then what period would you visit?

Oh this is such a good question. I think I'd go back to the times of the Vikings, not because of the obsession with music from Scandinavia or anything, but because they seemed to place so much trust and respect in their women in a time when it was rare for any culture to do that, and I find that incredibly interesting, not to mention to sheer romance of longing in uncertainty of the quests and conquers. Such an exciting culture. <333

^*steals the #4 and #10 questions for her talk show*

Another one:

Have you ever been caught cheating on an exam? If yes, what happened next?

Ah well... excuse me if this has already been asked ^^

What would you like to be written on your gravestone?
