How did you pick your Vox name? Does it mean something?
Submitted by LeendaDLL.
Yep, it does mean something. Renaissant is French for reborn, which is the Latin meaning of my name, Renate.
What TV show(s) will you be watching this season? Why?
Submitted by ducnly.vox.com.
Way too many. Gilmore Girls, Lost, Prison Break, Desperate Housewives and Battlestar Galactica are all 100%. House is also sneaking its way onto my list.
The really nice thing is that out of the 5 shows I definitely plan on watching, 3 of them I'll be watching with Tor. :)
What do you collect?
I collect Harry Potter figurines, but so far I have only one... I also collect My Little Pony(s), and I have quite a few of those. I'd also like to collect snow globes, but that hasn't really kicked off yet.
I also somewhat collect the "Me to You" teddies.
What are your personal memories of September 11th?
I had recently begun studying computer science at NTNU, and I was sitting by the table in the shared kitchen/living room at my dorm, working on my first assignment to be handed in. Two of my friends were there with me, as we were taking the same class we'd decided to work together on this.
The TV was turned off at the point, but suddenly one of the other girls in my hall came running into the room and turned on the TV, and she yelled something about a plane crashing into a tower. This was the first plane. We kept watching, as this was not something you'd be able to take your eyes away from. Then the second plane hit.
I can't really explain how it made me feel. Small and insignificant might be two fitting words, though...
What is your favorite children's movie?
Very few movies qualify as children's movies to me, really... I prefer to think of them more as family movies. Anyway, I have too many favourites to name them all, but one that came to mind now is "The Snowman".
Who's your favorite movie villain?
Would Commodore Norrington count? I mean, he's sort of a villain, but in a nice guy package? Yes?
What books are on your nightstand?
Right now, none. But that's because I brought it with me into the living room. I'm currently reading Labyrinth by Kate Mosse.
When you were younger, were there any game shows that you religiously watched and wanted to be a contestant on?
Hmm, no. As I remember it, there were no game shows. When I was "really young", we had only one tv channel (my parents live in an area where cable and other such things are unavailable). We eventually got a second one, which showed Who Wants to be a Millionaire, but I don't remember REALLY wanting to be on it.
