You heard me Vizzed: Ask me anything!
You can ask personal questions, help, opinions, advice, etc...

Please don't worry too much about making me uncomfortable, I don't really have anything to hide. I also reserve the right to leave any question unanswered or give a joke answer if I don't have a real one. xD The only rule I have is to follow the rules of the board, so please keep it appropriate.

Yes, I got special permission before creating this thread.

So... Ask away.

Ok then
If you could, would you pick up a full time modeling job or just keep it as a hobby? Also, how long do you think your modeling thing will last?

vizwiz123 : Well, at this point I don't really know where my modeling is going to take me. I'm really into it, and if I had the opportunity, I would definitely pursue it as a full-time career. The only problem with that is that I'd need to somehow gain popularity and recognition in my city. At this point I'm going to try and model as much as I can, with various photographers, and see where it goes from there.

I don't know when I will stop modeling. Maybe when I get serious with something else, or if I become too old. Like, 50 or something.

You are really good at drawing, any advice?

who said you could make this thread?!?!?!?

do you realize that you own me now right?

oh, and I'm gonna sticky this thread too... it's always nice to have a stickied thread once in a while

Since any question I'd ask would seem like an attempt at flirting (which it would be) I won't ask anything, just comment. Okay I got a question not a comment, do you have any friends who model? Do you guys hang out? Any pillow fights?

Do you think you will place in the top 10 in the July VCS?

Do you think you will post more and put more effort for the competition?

Do you think you will still be an active member here in Vizzed Board, let's say in 2 more years?

alexanyways : This is my advice for getting better at drawing:

1. Use a reference. Look at something real, in person or a photo. Try to sketch it out. You don't need to do a full-blown realistic drawing, but looking at people, animals and objects helps you get a feel for anatomy and form.

2. Take an art class. Whether it's at your community center or at school, if you have a genuine interest in art, it's good to have a teacher to guide you through the basics. There are a bunch of things I can't explain here, like blind contour line drawing and the color theory.

3. Practice every day. Keep your drawings in a sketchbook. Even if you hate the drawings, keep them to see your progress.

4. Look at other artists you admire for their work. Gain inspiration from them. Deviantart.com is a great place to find other artists.

How often do you play video games?
What do you like to play when you do play video games?

geeogree : Now my thread is all sticky. :p

BreakDown : Hmm, I don't think so. It's July so everyone is out of school, and the competition will probably be too much for me. And near the end of the month I'll be busy with my birthday. I hope I will still be active here in a few years. I don't quit active websites, usually. For example I still have Mypsace. As long as Vizzed is still alive and kicking, I don't see any reason to leave! (Unless there's some horrible drama that I can't deal with).

fightorace : Okay, I fail at flirting online. So... Wanna hang out some time? LOL. No I don't have any close friends who model. I do have a friend named Shaylene that's done some modeling (probably more than me actually). We're not close and I've only hung out with her two times. We were doing a shoot those two times so there wasn't much time to socialize. No pillow fights. Maybe if I got a few drinks in her she'd be up for one? xD

vizwiz123 : I probably play videogames a few times a week. I usually play at my friend's houses or, more regularly, before I go to bed. Usually I play Nintendo DS or GBA games. Right now I'm playing Rune Factory 2 and Harvest Moon for DS

What's your favorite snack to eat while gaming? Mines beef jerky.

dango989 : I don't usually eat while gaming so nothing really comes to mind.

oh dear... so many dirty responses to that.... but I won't.

Hrm.... were you born in Canada? Where exactly?

Where are your parents from?

Do you ever get asked "are you really a girl? A GIRL on the INTERNET?"

Also, do you have a deviantART account?

geeogree : I was born in British Columbia. My mom is Canadian and she was born in BC as well. My dad is Canadian as well, he is from Alberta. My heritage is mostly French, Norwegian and Italian.

Crawldragon : Hmm, not quite. But I have been asked to wave on Chatroulette because they thought I was a video loop set up by a website. I have also been asked by site moderators on a certain social networking site to either:
a. Provide proof that I didn't steal my pictures
b. Take my pictures down
c. Have my account closed
I didn't want to lose 17,000 pageviews so I provided picture of me holding a piece of paper with my username on it.

Annette : do you have any advice on how I could get trust points? I only have 2 right now and only 1 I think I earned.

Do you like to PARTY? lol
Also, how often do you exercise?

About modeling... is your town f**king retarded? Honestly, how could you not gain recognition?

Also, how do you feel about topping me in replies to your Ask Anything thread? Not total replies, but considering how little time you've had this thread open.

What do you consider to be the most important aspect of your life?

How often do you spend playing games on Vizzed and which ones do you like?

Somehow I have never seen your username around Guess I'm falling behind on Vizzed

megarevolution1 : I can't really suggest anything besides be nice and post a lot.

vizwiz123 : No. I don't party. I never went to a "party" when I was in high school. I don't drink alcohol or smoke anything. I don't see the appeal. I like to hang out with my friends, and dance, but I'd rather not go out partying.
I don't exercise. Like, AT ALL. Some days I don't even walk more than 20 feet. :/

Rasenganfan2 : It's not a town, I live near Vancouver. (Which is where the 2010 Olympics were held to put it in perspective.) When you're a model, you're not just competing with the people around you geographically. I'd be compared to models all over the country and the world who could do the job better than me. Like I said, I'd like to be a model as a job... But that's more like a wish than something I could actually pull off.
As for the thread thing, I don't really have any feelings about it. ... Sorry for stealing your thunder? Lol.

SarothCyngus : That's difficult to say. I'd be nothing without my closest friends, so probably them. And animals.

joebab : To be honest I don't really game on Vizzed. I like to chat here but I prefer to play games in real life on my Wii and DS.

What is the most interesting place you have ever visited?

Annette : Hey there's someone who hasn't been to a party in high school besides me

What is the one place that you would go and visit? What would you do there?

geeogree : Kenya which is in Africa. I could go on forever about it.

awesome! Well, since you have been somewhere rather strange... what is the strangest thing you've ever had to eat (doesn't have to be while you were in Kenya....)

vizwiz123 : I would go to either Venice, Italy.. Or New Zealand. I would love to see the sights and stay in either place for about two weeks.

geeogree : Hmm, I eat a bunch of "weird" things. Rice milk, almond milk, silken tofu, nutritional yeast, soy-based hamburger/chicken... And get this: I also eat vegetables. :o Weird, I know.

The thing I eat all the time that really makes people go "what?" is Indian food. My favorite dishes include Mattar Tofu and Chana Masala. That's not really weird though, seeing as it's eaten all over the middle east by probably millions of people. It's just that not many of my friends in North America have been bothered to try it.

Do you prefer fast food or organic foods? and if so what brands and food?

big fat cat : Definitely organic foods. (Not just organic but food that is fresh and less-processed in general.) Some brands that I particularly enjoy: So Nice, Amy's Kitchen, Gardien, Tofutti, Yves Veggie Cuisine, and Tofurky.

Raw fruit and veggies, broccoli, asparagus, fried zucchini, fruit smoothies, vegetable cocktail, spaghetti, trail mix, shredded wheat, granola, frosted flakes, baked potatoes, minestrone soup, lentil soup, lasagna, pesto, mushroom couscous, burritos, spicy taquitos, pb & j, chana masala, bean salad, waffles, tater gems, garlic bread, hashbrowns, pot pie... I could go on forever about what foods I like.

Where have you never been before that you would like to go? (feel free to name multiple places)

Do you believe in ghosts? Also, what's the most exciting thing that ever happened to you during high school?

geeogree : Disneyland, New York, California, Vegas, Hawaii (technically I've only been to Maui), New Zealand, Italy, Australia

vizwiz123 : Not really. I used to believe in ghosts but I don't think I do anymore. I'm not sure what I believe in at this point.
I can't really say just one thing... I had tons of good times. Trying to write it down would take forever and I would probably miss something important. One memory that is fresh in my mind is our graduation dinner/dance (kind of like prom)... It was so fun and I'll never forget it.

Hey, what do you think Vizzed Board will be in 10 years? Do you think it will be more awesomer?

More games and I hope more more new consoles would be added. How about the whole website? Do you think it will have more nicer people who are going to be regular members Vizzed Board?

Are you planning to go to college?

How did you find out about Vizzed Board?

BreakDown : Hopefully, if it becomes ten years old, it'll be like Neopets. AKA tons of members and too many site features to count.

septembern : I want to go to Emily Carr University of Art and Design someday
Bryce (btowns) told me about Vizzed

If you could change 1 thing about your life right now what would it be?

geeogree : The fact that I'm not eighteen yet... OR that I don't have enough money to buy new books... also I don't have a credit card.

Do you play any instruments?
What kind of music are you into?

joebab : I used to play clarinet, I was okay at it. I also played flute and I was horrible. I want to learn piano but I don't possess much musical talent. I like to sing though, and I love to listen to music.

I listen to basically any type of music. Indie, alternative, punk, folk, dance, industrial, goth/victorian, alt rock, ambient, electronic, techno, pop, synth-pop... Etc...

So how was your day yesterday?






Image upload: 643x362 totaling 61 KB's.

fightorace : Yesterday... Was awesome for me. The highlight of my day was going swimming under the stars, at midnight.

you are such a romantic. Not a bad thing, just don't see it to often anymore.

fightorace : I like to appreciate simple things... Nature is all around us but people look to material and superficial things for happiness. People should learn to appreciate what is already there

"but people look to material and superficial things for happiness"

do you really think that technology and other superficial things actually bring happiness?

I realize the answer I'm going to get.... and we probably agree... but I'm finding myself drawn to doing other things a lot more and appreciating the joy of watching my daughter learn about the world. It's a million times more satisfying than any video game or piece of technology ever could be.

geeogree : No, I don't think it can truly make you happy, but people try anyways.
And aww, that's so sweet. I like to watch my little sisters grow up. Even though I'm not much older than some of them by comparison.

Have you played any sports *doubt it :3*

Do you watch Degrassi?

Are you trying to place in this month's VCS?

What do you like best about Vizzed?

vizwiz123 : I used to take athletic swimming lessons, if that counts. I like volleyball (especially on the beach, I have a pretty wicked serve ), softball, and gymnastics. But I don't do that very often anymore. The closest thing I do to sports/exercise is doing stretches and walking once in a while.

No I don't watch Degrassi.

septembern : No. I like the people.

This may have already been asked, but where do you really see yourself? We all know you are gorgeous, and all that, but do you see yourself doing modeling for a few years or are going to college and trying to set up a plan for the future? I would not like to hear about my favorite Canadian getting famous then dropping into the dead zone a few years later.

Bobbynibbles : I have no interest in being famous or being "big" in modeling. If you've ever watched America's Next Top Model... It is actually a very difficult industry to get into and it requires a HUGE amount of dedication and determination.

I stand in front of a camera and take artistic shots with a freelance photographer in my town. I'm 5'4". There is NO way I am actual fashion model material. I could probably get into pinup, the most that would get me is a spot on Suicide Girls or a lot of pageveiws on Myspace (both of which I hate anyways). The best I can hope for is a popular Deviantart profile, to be realistic.

I'm not trying to be a downer, I'm just explaining that I have never seen myself - or will see myself - as an actual model for editorials in magazines or on TV.

However I am still going to work with as many photographers as possible, and get lots of pictures... For as long as I can.

I would like to move in next door, get a job, start a garden... Save up some money, go to University for graphic design (or something similar), and see where life takes me from there.

Annette : You don't HAVE to be a fashion model. I'm sure there are plenty of other fields out there. But the main point was what you were going to do with your life. Its commendable that you've thought about it as many never do, until its too late.

Annette: Hello Annette, I noticed you are interested in graphic design and have an art thread here on Vizzed. My questions for you are what type of computer programs do you use to create or edit graphics and what's your fav genre of art? I for one use Adobe Photoshop CS2 and Daz Studio for 3 dimensional art like my avatar.

Lena : I use Photoshop CS

What's that site you stream on, Annette?

I have 3 questions.

If you could do anything you want to tomorrow, what would it be?

What do you do better than most people you know?

What is the thing you are most proud of accomplishing in your life so far?

how does it feel to have a more popular ask anything thread than me???

So where do you see your modelling career going?!? (sorry, I had to )

So, an actual question. If you had the chance to go in a spaceship and land on the moon would you do it?

Bobbynibbles : http://stickam.com/annetteparkes

BreakDown : If I could do anything tomorrow... I would want to find a job that didn't suck!

Draw, paint, and use photoshop.

Ummm, I don't really know. I guess I'm proud of my art but it's not really a big accomplishment.

Question: What is your opinion on Full Metal Alchemist? Crono saw you pointing out in the "what's your top 5 favorite anime?" thread, and he always wants to know Anime-fans' opinions on FMA. , Crono is speaking about both FMA and Brotherhood, by the way.

geeogree : I don't think I would go to the moon because it would be too scary. I don't know if I could handle the astronaut training required. I'd probably pass out and die or something.

Crono : Full Metal Alchemist was one of the first animes I watched. I don't have a very good recollection of what exactly goes on in the show anymore.. but I remember it being dark and serious which I like. I watched the whole thing in about a month and I loved it!

If you had a couple million dollars, would you give some to charities? If so, which ones?
?






Image upload: 150x120 totaling 4 KB's.

Where did you learn to make such nice layouts?

Do you think you'll reach 500 posts by the end of July?

Just visited you stream. You've got really long hair. Got a couple questions for you-

I'm pretty sure you don't have any tattoos, so have you ever thought about getting one? If so, of what and where?

How many times have boys asked to go out with you?

Cyro Xero : I've considered getting a gecko or a dragon on my ankle. And you're right, I don't currently have any tattoos.

I can't count how many times I've been asked out, both online and off.

Hahaha! I figured as much. I didn't take into account the online part, however.

I remembered the other question I meant to ask you in my last post before forgetting what it was- If you could meet people from Vizzed who would you do a meet up with?

Cyro Xero : I would like to meet with anybody on my friends list!

So that would include you, Zeldisaster, BreakDown, Geeo, Kryptic, JusTReaL, Zamiel, Crono, Dramabethie, David, Level Up, Chrisd636, Septembern, Metal572 and 1sam234.

Annette : this sounds so immature but if that's your real picture your hair is hot! is so like awesome man its just the color is so like perfect! is that your natural color if it is keep it that way some guys think hair like that is erotic and will ask you out quickly very cool hair xd.

95jake1 : Thank you! Yeah, my user picture and the pictures on my profile are really me. I plan to keep it this color for a long time. I like it too, I'm glad others find it awesome. :3

do you like skittles? I love skittles personally...

if you do like skittles... do you eat them in a strange way... like with all 5 flavors in 1 handful or all the same flavor together?

Annette : wow lol you should really consider being a motel your very beautiful very nice face features wow! lol im just imagined your perfect face features with the body of Jessica Alba man that would be great lolls but ya i love your hair if i where a chick i would so get that color. by the way your profile picture is pro. model/photographer ftw much?.

95jake1 made a funny spelling error he said you should be a motel.....sorry if that sounded offensive.....any way so Annette everyone knows your really pretty I just wana know how hard you work at looking so good if at all?

also if you had the opportunity to take a vacation of any kind to any where with no cost restrictions where would you go and what would you do?

Which forum is your favorite?

What did you do while vizzed was down the past few days?

geeogree : Skittles are alright, I don't really eat candy though. Usually I separate all the flavors and only eat the same colors together.

95jake1 : If you read some of my previous posts you will find that I am model, but only as a hobby. My user picture is one of the shots I took with my photographer. I don't think my body is quite like Jessica Alba's (I WISH!), but my measurements are:
Height - 5'4"
Bust - 36"
Waist - 25"
Hips - 35"
... if that helps you get an idea.

rbaranishyn : Compared to how much time guys spend on their appearance, you'd probably think my "beauty regime" is crazy. When going out, I spend about 20 minutes on makeup, 10 minutes on my outfit, and 10 minutes on my hair. Sometimes 30+ minutes for my makeup, if it's for something fancy. You also have to count all the time I spend shopping for clothes, buying makeup, treating my skin & hair, plucking my eyebrows, haircuts, etc. I guess it is a full-time commitment but it's not really "hard" or "difficult".
If I could vacation anywhere without cost restrictions... I'd take a 3-month cruise around the world or something. And go to like 20 different locations.

septembern : General Chat or Cafe Corner.
I just went on other internet sites like normal. Facebook, Neopets, Stickam, etc.

Annette : really consider being a model i think you would be perfect for it most beautiful face ever i mean you dont need the perfect body to be a model your body that you described sounds fine go for it.and again really nice photo's.

Dude, calm down. please do not perv on the lady.

Bobbynibbles : who are you talking to? nothing 95jake1 said was "perv".... he just said he thought she had a beautiful face.... that's not really pervy...

Did you think he was being pervy annette?

Where is the highest elevation you've been at?

What is your favorite food?

Have you ever read any of Jhonen Vasquez's comics (Johnny the Homicidal Maniac, Squee,...I can't think of the other ones XD)?

I'm not sure if this was already asked or not but what's your favorite band/artist?

geeogree : No I do not feel "perved" on.

septembern : I actually have no idea. I don't pay attention to elevations. Perhaps... As high as a commercial aircraft goes? x)
I've already been asked about my favorite food and I've decided that I can't choose.

Zamiel : I don't read or buy any comics, so no.
I listen to so much music I can't choose just one artist. Some of my all time favorites are Coldplay, Imogen Heap, Lady Gaga, Snow Patrol, Moby, MGMT, Death Cab For Cutie, Mother Mother, Ratatat, and Emily Autumn.

Neither do I but Jhonen Vasquez was the creator the Invader Zim series and his comics are hilarious and have wonderful artwork. You've got a nice diverse taste in music. btw it's Emilie Autumn (I love her Unlaced album XD)

If you could instantly learn any other language what language would it be?

Zamiel : Japanese.

is there a particular reason for picking Japanese over all the other possible languages???

geeogree : It's cool, because I'm a weeaboo.

How many languages can you speak?

Why doesn't your husband post here anymore?

septembern : I can speak English. So, one.
I don't have a husband...? D:
If you mean Bryce, it's because his computer is broken and he needs to order parts from the manufacturer before it can be fixed. He says he missed Vizzed though.

Do you ever get tired of all these guys hitting on you?

Zamiel : No. LOL!
