Leave a comment and I will:
1) tell you why I friended you,
2) associate you with something - fandom, a song, a color, a photo, etc.,
3) tell you something I like about you,
4) tell you a memory I have of you,
5) ask something I've always wanted to know about you, These are really difficult. Mostly if I want to know something, I just ask, but I'll try to come up with a something of some sort.
6) tell you my favorite user pic of yours,
7) most of you have posted this already. Ah well.

1) I lurked on your journal for a while, not knowing who you were but aware that you were a Smithie in my social circle whose entries were funny and insightful and endearing, and then I realized that you were Talia and so I friended you.
2) associations. (as in, word association games, not organizations)
3) You care about people a lot, and you make sure that they know it.
4) I think that the first time I ever really talked to you individually rather than in the context of the table was one icy evening first year where I was coming back from somewhere and I ran into you in front of Morris house, disheartenedly wavering across the slick ground and trying not to fall over, and I helped you back to our side of campus. You kept thanking me and I told you that it would be a boring trip if the conversation consisted of nothing but you thanking me and me saying you're welcome, and you pointed out that I could thank you, and so I did, and then the ice was broken, if you'll pardon the turn of phrase.
5) What do you like best about the art that you make (that you're pleased with)?
6) Rainbow fish or wild things

I guess I think something is successful if it evokes a physical sense of form, and and an emotional sense of purpose. And I suppose the art department's influence on me manifests itself in the fact that I can't really say it more simply ^^;.

Well, if that's the worst the art department does to you in your time here, I'll be impressed.
