Rules: In a text post, list 10 books that have stayed with you in some way. Don’t take but a few minutes, and don’t think too hard—they don’t have to be the “right” or “great” works, just the ones that have touched you.

Rule 1- Always post the rules.
Rule 2- Answer the questions of the person who tagged you and then write 11 new ones.
Rule 3- Tag 11 friends and link them.
Rule 4- Let them know you tagged them.
1. What is your biggest achievement in life so far?
I can do a double pirouette:) (I really don't know what my biggest achievement is. As soon as I have posted this I'll probably realize I have done something very cool that I totally forgot about)
I usually prefer watching the film before reading the book, because when I first read the book the film often doesn't live up to how I imagined everything. Whereas when I watch the film before reading the book, the information I get from the book only makes me love the film more.
3. What is the one skill you would like to have the most.
I would like to be able to always understand people. This way I could help them and I would avoid doing or saying stupid things that would hurt them.:)
4. Would you be able to kill somebody?
I would probably physically be able to kill someone, but mentally I definitely wouldn't be able to handle it.
5. Do you think aliens exist?
Ehm, maybe, probably, I don't know?
6. If you had to choose between to never listen to your favourite music again and to never watch you favourite tv-show again, what would you choose?
NOOOOOOooooo~! I would never watch my favourite tv-show again. I just need my favourite music to live!
7. What is pasta made of (I’ve always wanted to know this but I’m too lazy to google)
Typically pasta is made from an unleavened dough of a durum wheat flour mixed with water, but it can be made with flour from other cereals or grains, and eggs may be used instead of water
8. What is your favourite scent?
The scent of the sea when you're standing at the beach about 50 meters (about 55 yards).
9. Is turquoise green or blue?
It's not green nor blue, it's a beautiful, independent colour and you should respect that! this is very important to me okay don't judge me!

- Travel with the Doctor
- Study at Hogwarts
- Live at 221B Baker Street
- Live in Narnia

Study at Hogwarts!!! That would be the coolest thing ever!
