“There isn’t a specific place
that I go to and return from,
but it’s like some sort of
state of conscious dreaming."

-Adam Randal Young
Or My Framework Snaps

here are some frequently asked questions / things you should know about anna:

Q: where do you get all of your pictures?
A: urm well. i have been collecting adam and owl city pictures for a few years now. i've taken them from many, many websites or screen shots or videos. everywhere, really! i'm happy you like them though (:

Q: how old are you?
A: eighteen & a freshman in college. but i look a lot younger. guess that's a good thing?

Q: can i use one of your pictures?

A: sure, as long as you leave my watermark on it and / or credit me, i'd appreciate that. (:

Q: how long have you been on tumblr?

A: actually, not that long. since august / september of 2011. i was actually an anon browser of adam blogs for about a month or so before i joined. i was really shy and overwhelmed by the amount of creative hoot owls. i then realized i didn't have much to lose and started an owl city blog myself and here i am today, to stay. tumblr is wonderful, and i don't have a facebook so it's what i do regularily to pass the time. (:

Q: why do you put your URL on photos that aren't yours?
A: i edit each and every picture i put my url on. i don't take the pictures or claim them, unless stated otherwise. they're other people's, i just make them look prettier! (or so i think anyhow). all images are copyright their original owners - i take credit for nothing but the editing. c: I spend a lot of time editing. If you happen to see a picture that is yours and would like credit, please do message me!

Q: are you adam young?

A: haha no, but i sure do know quite a lot about the guy!

Q: how long have you been an owl city fan?
A: a few years, actually. proud hoot owl right here yo! as cliche as it sounds, it all started with fireflies.

Q: what do you use to edit your pictures?
A: i actually don't have photoshop on my laptop at college, so i use editing websites, and the GIMP program as well as my wacom tablet to do little things to photos.

A: actually yes. i have a heath ledger blog (handsomeheath.tumblr.com), a beautiful colors blog (cowboyclicheskies.tumblr.com), as well as a personal blog which is my main and the one that i comment and follow people from (steadymyheart.tumblr.com). also my sister has a river phoenix blog (heisriverphoenix.tumblr.com). check her out!

Q: do you have a facebook?
A: actually no. i deleted it because i hate being such a follower. it's overrated anyway, i'm happy to have a tumblr. i do have an email though & i'd be happy to give it to you if you'd like to chat! (i also have a twitter but hardly use it unless adam has something specific i want to reply to).

Q: is the art on the blog yours?
A: yep actually it is! i'd be happy to draw something for you if you like. (:

Q: i love your blog! can you look at mine?
A: of course! i looooveee browsing blogs, and especially if you're a hoot owl, i'd be more than happy to check yours out. i might even follow!

Q: what other music do you like?

A: i have a super broad variety of tastes (owl city being my favorite if you couldn't tell). I like older country (i'm from illinois so those people are who come around often, the country singers), pop, hip hop and some rap, alternative...literally, a rainbow of genres. i find myself leaning toward the acoustic/alternative genres nowadays because i'm so sick of the top 40 junk on the radio stations. 

Q: what's your favorite owl city song?

A: If My Heart Was a House and Sunburn are my two very favorites, and then Tidal Wave and Honey and the Bee, I think! (:
