Questions:
(Which were very hard to answer!)
1. What is your favourite/default outfit?
My default outfit will always involve skinny jeans, just because I love wearing them (clearly I don't tend to cope too well in summer so my dress sense switches on for winter only). So what I'd wear would be jeans, boots, a plain t-shirt and a jacket or blazer. Colour would come from accessories or the jacket usually.
2. If you were stranded on a desert island alone what three things (apart from water, food blah blah all thats taken care of) would you take with you? Choose wisely >v<
Chose wisely oh dear. Well what strikes me first is to bring some sort of escape method, but let's be realistic here if I got stranded on a deserted island there would be no way I could escape by myself - I do not have the wildlife skills for this. So I would be hanging around for someone to rescue me. I want to say that I'd bring a friend or something, but I don't actually think I'd want to condemn them to being stuck with me on an island with all the bugs and stuff. So to pass the time I would bring a book, a grand piano and cadbury chocolate.
3. What is a dream job that you think you probably won’t end up doing?
I'm in my last year of high school so I am currently trying to decide on a career and that stumps me just as much as this question. But if this is truly a dream job that I won't end up doing here goes - I would like to be help assylum seekers and get them some rights and decent treatment in my country as a volunteer (I hope I do actually do this), or as a lawyer or something who has studied at universities and lived in college. Following this I would become a successful writer who is invited to speak all over the world, hence lots of travelling. When I return home from touring I'd like to continue writing but on the weekends I would be a sports commentator for Australian Rules Football (and maybe even be invited to do some commentary work for SBS during the Tour de France). In my spare time I would learn to play piano and write songs. Warned you 'dream' and job[s]' didn't I?
4. If you could be someone for a day who would it be?
I would be either a highly skilled doctor so I would know what it was like to save someone's life or change it completely, or Cassandra Clare so I would have insight into how to achieve perfect humour. If I could be a fictional character and enter their world I would be either someone deeply loved like Elizabeth Bennet or someone with an awesome talent or power like Hermione Granger.
5. Who is your favourite painter/artist?
Art isn't my strong suit and my interest in it should be greater, but I will say Van Gogh because colour and texture and wow and I've actually seen his paintings in the Musée d'Orsay, which was a pretty cool experience. Plus my friend Lauren is an amazing drawer and I always love seeing her work.
6. Name something you’d like to do before you’re 21 (assuming you’re under 21 of course ..)
I would like to have my driver's license by then please. The rate I am going it looks like I'll be 30.
7. Pet hates?
People who crack their knuckles or bite their nails! Where I can hear/see! Also people who tell me off for dog-earing my books or bending the spine. Sorrrryy not sorry it's a sign of love. Also people who don't like movies. Something's wrong there. And I am deeply mistrustful of vegetarians, though I recognise that that is a personal choice and that this list is long.
8. Famous people you dislike? Why?
Justin Bieber. I don't like the way he's received unnecessary abuse and hurtful comments about his music and looks etc. but he comes across as just so arrogant and acts like he is a gift to the world and from what I read in the newspaper the other day he is a little primadonna. I also don't like Eddie McGuire (Australian personality) because ugh. But I don't really have many thoughts on famous people to be completely honest.
9. Describe yourself in a sentence.
A walking contradiction who tries to make the best of things.
10. Favourite sound?
It's cliche but I love the sound of rain pattering against my bedroom window. I also love the sound of a beautifully played violin or cello, not that I listen to that often though in fact extremely rarely.
11. What fictional character would you most like to meet in person?
This is very, very hard. Okay, well, I would pick a character who is either very original and unlikely to meet a similar person in real life or I would choose a character who I have all these unanswered questions about so I can find out why they acted the way they did. But I actually have no idea so I'll just say a character I admire, which is Charlie Peaceful.
