Instructions:
1. Choose up to five of your own characters.
2. Make them answer the following questions.

I chose:
1. Ego, the Beast of Me.
2. Gild (read: Guilt), the Heart of Me.
3. Cipto, the Mind of Me.
4. Azshara Rivendare, my DnD Character.


What's your opinion on reading and writing?

Ego: Booooring..
Cipto: Oh come on, you can get so much just by reading.
Gild: And you can pour emotions by writing.
Azshara: Just like how I read and write love letters for my wife =D
Ego: You guys are lame, you know? Action's all life's for!
Me: *gives Natsu's photo album to Ego*
Ego: Oh alright, I like reading. *strays off somewhere alone*


What's your opinion on maths, sciences, and language(s)?

Cipto: If we come to a conclusion with not even a drip of doubt, it has to be based on Mathematics.
Ego: Geek..
Gild: Different languages show the many different cultures of people, it's amazing.
Ego: Yeah right, Ms. know-it-all..
Azshara: Love is a science never to be touched by human minds.
Ego: Tsk, what a Playboy line..
Me: How about you, Ego?
Ego: Huh? *still drooling over the pics*


What is the best way to learn something?

Gild: Do, and if you fail, never make the same failure twice.
Cipto: Watch others do it, learn, and don't even make a single failure.
Azshara: To learn something, we must first have the curiosity to want, the courage to try, and the patience to stand from failure.
Ego: I CRUSH EVERYTHING THAT BLOCKS MY WAY! WAAAAAGH!
Me: I assure you, he meant that, literally.


To what degree do you avoid risks and danger?

Azshara: As long as it protects my dearest love.
Ego: AVOID risks? Are you kidding me? Those things give me adrenaline, you know!
Cipto: Risks are always there, it's just how we make the least of it.
Gild: No, I don't wanna get hurt! No! Don't make me cry! NOOOOOO!!


Under what circumstances would you risk your life for someone else?

Azshara: I'll do anything for the safety of my Lady.
Cipto: Maybe.. I should consider it a little longer.
Gild: Listen to your heart, and you'll know.
Ego: I can't explain it, but it comes when your heart beats fast, your adrenaline pushing, your mind all filled with the will to fight, and testosterone just went to the top.
Me: Hey, you can say nice things too.
Ego: OF COURSE! I'm the best man here, you see. *grabs the album back*
Me: Yeah.. right.


Under what circumstances do you think killing someone justified, in general?

Gild: No killing! No blood! Peace for the world!
Azshara: Yeap. In a battle, a gentleman will walk but never run.
Cipto: If you can, trick someone else to do the dirty job.
Ego: Those who defy my will shall pay.
Me: Ego, you're creepy.
Ego: Shut up! If it wasn't for me, you'll be dead by now.
Me: And how is it so?
Ego: Well, I'm the one who stabs your friends to get what you want.


What is the worst feeling you experienced?

Azshara: It is when I found that all this time I have been fooled.
Cipto: When I cannot find an answer to something.
Ego: When I can't beat the sh*t out of my enemies! Damn, I have to be stronger!
Gild: ... When Natsu is crying. It's.. it's got to be my fault!
Me: *gives a tissue box to Gild*
Gild: Thanks.. *sob sob* Huwaaaaa!

And what is the best feeling?

Cipto: Have you ever felt the surge of mind? When you realized that the answer to the riddles was just a..
Me: Next!
Gild: Being loved by the one.. Oh, the heartbeat.. the warm and fuzzy feeling..
Azshara: I second that, Gild.. And the one for me is my beloved wife..
Ego: God, you all act like babies! All men have one desire, and that is to WIN!

Extreme Pride 2

Have you ever feel so ashamed of yourself, that whatever you do, it's never adequate for other people?

Have you ever feel so ashamed of yourself, that when someone says you don't do enough, what you heard is that you don't do anything?

Have you ever feel so ashamed of yourself, that rather than repairing yourself to move forward, you chose to sit down and cry?

Have you ever feel so ashamed of yourself, that you know you need help, but you just won't say it because you fear you won't get any?

Well, I never have.

But I've seen people do those things.

And I tell you, it ain't always fun to see.

Ship of Life

Life is like a ship upon an endless sea.

Everywhere there are always waves, ready to strike ferociously. Whether we want it or not, even though we try to avoid it as much as we can, sooner or later the ship would hit some of them and the hull would suffer. It will be thrown by winds, its sails shredded to nothingness.

Every single damage will cause the ship to halt. And every single wound will make the repairs better, reinforcing it so the same waves would not hurt it anymore. The ship will get stronger and stronger every time. Thus, the ship will keep moving.

And if the ship has come to a full stop, then it means that it has been wavestruck so much, that it eventually sunk. When it comes into those, a ship can never stand again to continue its voyage. That is why there are other ships around, so that they can reel our ship from the depths of the sea, and push us forward, again drifting in the endless sea.

Extreme Pride

Have you ever feel so proud of yourself, that you become to think that you are great in many things?

Have you ever feel so proud of yourself, that when you take an exam, and the day has come for you to see the results, you don't feel nervous at all?

Have you ever feel so proud of yourself, that even when the results are great, you don't jump happily because you know that you are capable of such results?

Have you ever feel so proud of yourself, that you don't feel excited at all knowing that you're the best in the class?

Well, I have.

And I tell you, it ain't always fun.

And today comes the verdict..

Chivalry

Anyone ever heard the word? Sounds rather cool, no? Reminding us of the boundless bravery and eternal devotion of Knights from the medieval age. They seem so great, leaping in the battlefield on their horses, fighting for pride with their blades, and defending their country and ruler for the sake of dignity.

They are the most obedient creatures, trained in lawful ways only to fulfill their duties as the high-borns. They have been taught since birth to become a warrior, a noble in status, and an upper-class being. They are so loyal to their country, that it has been said that even death could not separate a True Knight from his duties.

But then, what does it mean to be a Knight?

A dummy that lives only to be controlled by its ruler?
A brainwashed one, tricked into bravery to defend the country?
Or an angel in shining armor, living for good, truth, and justice?

Really, the word Chivalry has no meaning when a Knight is fighting for the wrong side. It matters not how brave you are, how strong, or how devoted, when you are doing it for the sake of something that should not be done.

Chivalry should not be had by those who are blindly following orders.
It is for the ones who know what they are fighting for, and strive for that sole purpose.

Of course, each Knight are persistent with their own beliefs, and would rather fight to death than going to the other way. That's what zealots are.
