      You're really a sweetheart for asking that question and offering your help. Next time I take on a serious project I will certainly come to you. After all, I have before, when I was wondering about how to market my first novel! And you had a great idea right from the get-go.

      Right now I'm preparing to serve as a missionary, so I'll have one focus for 18 months. When I get back, maybe I'll get serious about some of my potential projects. One idea I've had for awhile is a store that sells plus-size clothing from vintage and independent labels. Having a brick-and-mortar element would be ace, but either way I'd want to have a big web presence as well. Maybe when that gets going you can give me some marketing/networking tips. We'll see! ;D

      That's tough, because I know what I would do if I was about to die but civilization was to remain (write like hell in a last desperate attempt to leave my legacy.) If everyone else was going with me, I'd tell everyone that I love how much I care about them. I do that already, but it would become even more important in such a circumstance. After that, I'd probably go for a drive with friends, with my music blaring and the windows rolled down.

      Thank you André! I condition like crazy every day in the shower, then use Short Sexy Hair pomade to tousle my bedhead.

      I've been putting off answering this forever, because I just can't decide. It's such a good question, and I'd love to have a real answer. I guess I'll finally have to make an attempt. I love Aristophanes' speech in Plato's "Symposium" about how humans used to be two bodies merged into one. We got so powerful like that that the gods split us down the middle to avoid being challenged by us. Now we must search for our "other half," our soulmate, and get as close as we can to our original state.

      For tummy aches, I use ginger. For fatigue, gingko balboa/ginseng. Pineapple and oranges are great natural acidic remedies for nausea and other problems. If you know a Wiccan, they can do amazing things for your headaches. When I get back to the island I'm going to go to Waikiki Health Center for free traditional Hawaiian healing.

      It's not one of my primary interests but it has the potential to pique my curiosity. I studied survival methods a lot in elementary/middle school, building different types of woodland shelters and such.

      I worry about it sometimes. I generally worry about other environmental problems. I still spray my mohawk with chemicals from an aerosol can though. :/

      I suppose that every food can make you sick when it's expired. Honey is the only food that doesn't expire, and it's so sweet that it may make you sick anyway. So, yes, canned fruits have that power.

      No, they're always blue. When it's overcast, like it often is during wintertime, they are a duller blue than during sunny days.

      I would never want that. I guess you could say that I couldn't do it.

      Human beings amaze me, and usually make me very happy.

      List three or four qualities that make you who they are. Go on, do it.

      ...

      Did it? Now think about whether those qualities are of any consequence if you're the only person on earth.

      The qualities that I listed when asked to do this exercise are in my opinion worthless if I didn't have humans to share them with.

Rachel’s Bio

I write. I go to school in Hawai'i for psychology and literature. I answer anonymous questions for lulz.
