Since Elena tagged me for the associations meme, I'm going jump on the bandwagon. 
Rules:
1) Choose 13 people from your readers list.
2) Say what you associate them with (objects, actions, etc).
3) The named readers do the same thing in their diaries.
I'm making rule 3 optional, so no need to feel obligated.
I don't know all that many of my readers, so I'm going to do only 6. In alphabetical order so as not to offend anyone.
1. CryBaby - a purring kitten, "yellow is a happy colour", silver skirt with Doc Martens boots, the aroma of fresh coffee, photographs awash in golden light.
2. Долли Обломская - witty dialogue, a secret grin, Nabokov, good-naturedly rolling one's eyes, Snape who doesn't look a thing like Alan Rickman.
3. Елена - 19th century ball gown, long opera gloves, Greece, a crackling fireplace, barely audible Mozart aria in the distance.
4. Lyndal - orbital sander, quirky email headings, red hair, the colour white, a sparkling-clean house.
5. Tenar - open book of illustrated stories, subtitles, an airy room with tatami mats, willows leaves just touching water, delicate calligraphy.
6. XenaAmber - Shakira, Anna Karenina, soft green grass, British accent, red dress.
For explanations and other association requests, feel free to comment.

11.05.2006 в 10:00Вообще, довольно поэтический образ.

11.05.2006 в 10:57Бальное платье - уж не знаю придумала ли я это сама, или ты где-то говорила, что тебе нравится мюзикл "Элизабет", а он у меня ассоциируется с таким платьем (и заодно с нарядом Кристины из ТОМ, и с твоей аватаркой). Перчатки - классика, элегантность, сдержанные жесты; Моцарт на гране слуха и огонь в камине - четкая ассоциация с твоими фиками, такой уют и отдаленная музыка... Греция - Hellas, Елена Прекрасная.
Tenar
Я бы тоже не против такой комнаты. А каллиграфия имелась в виду японская (наверное, из за переводов).

11.05.2006 в 11:00Спасибо большое!
И за Моцарта, и за перчатки, и за все остальное

11.05.2006 в 11:05My pleasure.

11.05.2006 в 11:46Простор, море, солнце, сильный ветер. Соленые брызги на губах, широкополая шляпа.

11.05.2006 в 12:16Спасибо! Очень-очень люблю море.

11.05.2006 в 15:57The colour white???
Sadly, the red hair was but a dye-job for me, but it runs in my family - skips every second generation apparently - my kids will be able to compare carrot-related cruelty with my dad and uncle. I did score the red-headed temper tho!
Which reminds me. I need a haircut.

11.05.2006 в 16:56Btw, I think Cathy mentioned this to you... but I don't really have a British accent anymore, so don't freak out when I arrive.

11.05.2006 в 17:29Tango... hmm...
Eating kangaroo steak in Paris, reciting poetry, soaring over the ocean in a car with a right steering wheel... Something like that. )))

11.05.2006 в 20:09Man, I'm gonna have "Orbital Sander" in my Obituary, aren't I? Definitely, but only if I write it. The solution is clear; I better beware your Psycho Erik, huh?
The colour white because your name sounds like it should be white.
XenaAmber
Soft green grass, because of England (when you get here and see the straw that passes for grass, you'll appreciate why). Red dress = Destiny = Caesar.
Re British accent: if you have even the faintest trace of the American rolled r's, you'll be taken for an American, most likely. So if you'd rather not be, you better start cultivating the Brit in you again.
Долли Обломская
"Eating kangaroo steak in Paris" -- I love it!

12.05.2006 в 03:59Thank you.

-
12.05.2006 в 21:25LOL about the accent... I'm expecting people to think I'm American, then, especially since I'll be with Americans for a couple of weeks during my seminar.
