What does your Minecraft base say about you?

Well, my current and biggest Minecraft base is a large system of underwater glass domes with posh decoration. It's pretty sweet. A bonus is that it's well lit with glowstone, and no monsters spawn in or anywhere near it.
What does that say about me? I suppose it's that I appreciate aesthetics more than practiality, but I still take practicality in mind when making things for the purpose of beauty. :>

it says that I have too much free time.
a big castle, a BIG quarry, a skull fortress with a lava moat and a swimming pool inside and a big tower as a forward base to spend the night when I can't make it back to the castle.

lets see i had a massive stone built castle and sprawling underground home a si,ple wodding house near a lake that i picked because it was a nice place to look at and recently i have build a wooden fort with a walk way to a moutain top home and a boat house i have yet to buil a tree house but i will get there
Usually it's either an underground 7x7, into the side of a cave, or a 20 block high suspended house, usually on the side of a small mountain. Anything that takes me away from "civilization".
Probably because I like isolation. Whether it be pigs, creepers, (Pig creepers? Notch, get to work!) or people, I just like to be away from it all.

Medium Sized Walled city with defensive watchtowers outside of the walls and zeppelins so uh.....
I poured lava all over mine, its rudimentary, not really a base more of a..I dug into a mountain and made a room with all my stuff in it, and underground I have a tunnel that is so vast it takes minutes to travel across the whole thing.
Anyways. Yeah. Its like..In this little grotto/paradise surrounded by mountains and I poured lava all over the terrain/lake to make it desolate. I also have 2 sky lava flows and another coming soon.
The only problem is the fucking animals EVERYWHERE.
They try to come inside, I just want to be alone ;-;

Well, when I downloaded the Minecraft demo I built a house, it was very plain with no windows. Out of boredom I shortly blew it up.
My base says I am unimaginative.

My first was a enormous underground complex that also incorporated several mines With only one entry, I blocked off all others that I discovered.
My current ambition/dream/obsession/base is a half-size scale replica of Orthanc, with surrounding gardens (Thats Isengard for the commoners) with the tower built entirely out of obsidian.
I guess this says that I don't like to open myelf to others, and that when I do, its only to present a harsh exterior.

A castle surronded by a lava moat and a wall, and my room will soon be a small wooden cabin at the top surronded by a garden.
I don't really know how much that says other than I like the midevil time peroid and I like to be protected.

sp1 - cobblestone castle with balcony, tower, duel lava pillars, stream, dock and garden all fenced in. my favourite part would be a small room that i have covered in grass to make it look like a hill or something and it has a pool in it that has a waterfall into my basement/mine
sp2 - working on an underwater city of some kind
mp1 - big hole blown down into a mountain with a minecart track leading to a waterfall that hides a door to a replica of the house i grew up in and opposite to the waterfall was a booster track that went way out from the city my friends made to a secluded island which i built yoshi on next to a mountain with an attempted replica of my parents house on the thats other side of the country (i live in newfoundland and they moved to alberta and i was visiting at the time i made the house)
mp2 - basically a box under friends town
not sure what these mean, aside from the yoshi... i <3 yoshi ^_^

Step 1. Find cave.
Step 2. Burrow out to make one entrance.
Step 3. Put a door on it.
Step 4. ????????
Step 5. PROFIT!
I always find a cave in a highly populated area and highly forested. I'm not a hippy, more of an educated naturalist.

a small castle that has tunnels below it that go to bead rock (and in every direction other than that), so it kind of presents itself as a small outpost and it is so much more. (like it has a hidden underwater glass room)
i guess i present myself as one thing and i am something completely different. so yeah my minecraft base is very like me

When I first picked up minecraft I hurried to build a small dwelling within the side of the mountain, and eventually carved it out with tunnels and passages going everywhere. You couldn't see much from the surface.
My more recent (main) world saw me start by going to the top of the highest mountain I could see and then building a small house on top. I eventually replaced the dirt walls with secure-feeling cobblestone followed by completely changing it to glass (so I could see what was lingering outside of my house). I then built a mine down to bedrock and hollowed out a fair section at the bottom... But I only go down there when I need more cobble.
After that I then built an epicly long skybridge back towards my spawn point with a tower there to access it. I then just branched out everywhere into many different directions essentially creating my own sort of "freeway" in the sky.
So in other words, "I have no idea what is says about me
"
TL;DR
A very outdated video of my base:

(It has changed a lot since then).
