ALL OF THE ODDS GO MAN GO
In response to this ask. Thank you dear foe! This is so much but so fun so let’s DO IT~
1) Put your iTunes on shuffle. Give me the first 6 songs that pop up.
I won’t do iTunes cause that’s sketch…so I’ll go to trusty ole Spotify…
Cough Syrup by Young the Giant
Explosions by Ellie Goulding
Lost in My Mind by The Head and the Heart
No One’s Here To Sleep by Naughty Boy ft. Bastille
3) Grab the book nearest to you, turn to page 23, give me line 17.
The book is “The Adventure of the Christmas Pudding” by Agatha Christie. Page 23 line 17: “that I should - well, want to talk to you about it.” Not super interesting, but the book is. Read for more details.
5) Ever had a poem or song written about you?
Not that I know of, nope.
I don’t have a religion per se. I consider myself agnostic.
9) Simple but extremely complex. Favorite band?
Hmm… for *Western* music, I really like Young the Giant, Walk the Moon and Arctic Monkeys. For *Eastern* music, probably BTS and Seventeen ;)
11) Do you believe in karma?
I think all actions have some sort of repercussion - no matter what you do, you will affect more than just yourself - so yes.
13) What is your greatest weakness; your greatest strength?
This question is too college-y for me, so with all due respect, I shall skip it.
15) How do you vent your anger?
I stew in my room, listen to music, write. I get mad at inanimate objects.
17) Are you happy with the person you’ve become?
19) What’s your biggest “what if”?
What if…for a long time it was what if I picked up the violin instead of piano? Would one of my ears be more shot than the other? Would one of my hands be more deft than the other? Would I get more used to walking around on a stage? Would I practice more/less, love music more/less?
21) Stick your right arm out; what do you touch first? Do the same with your left arm.
Right: a ceramic plate with a chocolate chip cookie on it
Left: a painting in our living room by the fabulous artist Jiang Xue Man (Xue Man Auntie <3)
23) What’s the worst place you have ever been to?
Probably a urinal in rural China, built out of mud with an abundance of flies.
25) To you, what is the meaning of life?
Progress! (Of course, I don’t know)
27) What was the last movie you saw?
The Help, just now! Not for the first time though - the last movie I saw for the first time would be Kingsman.
29) Do you have any obsessions right now?
Suits? (the clothing and the show) I think it’s definitely because of Kingsman. Also walking > running imho.
31) Do you tend to hold grudges against people who have done you wrong?
There aren’t many who’ve done me wrong, luckily. My answer would be very rarely, and the grudges aren’t strong in severity.
33) What’s the last thing you purchased?
A bottle of Matcha Au Lait from the neighborhood Urban Remedy (shoutout to intheflashh)
37) What is your secret weapon to get someone to like you?
Show them your Red Room of Pain ;)
Just kidding, I don’t have a secret weapon. Probably just find something to connect about, and hit it off. Be genuine.
39) What were you doing last night at 12 AM?
Writing a new short story while watching Mission Impossible: Ghost Protocol. Unashamed.
41) You are walking down the street on your way to work. There is a dog drowning in the canal on the side of the street. Your boss has told you if you are late one more time you get fired. What do you do?
Grab a fellow pedestrian, make sure he/she helps the dog, call the neighborhood authorities if necessary, and run at full sprint to work.
43) What’s a song that always makes you happy when you hear it?
Without fail, Fireproof by One Direction. It’s so sweet, and you can hear the smile in the song.
45) How can I win your heart?
Not by talking to me on the Internet...haha...sorry...
47) What is the single best decision you have made in your life so far?
I can’t pick just one, and also this is a bit too personal so ^^
49) Give me the first thing that comes to mind when you hear the word “heart.”
Heart and soul…i fell in love with yoU HEART AND SOULLLLLL, LIKE ANY FOOl wouLD DO~
51) What is your current desktop picture?
A gorgeous picture of an owl that I can link here.
53) What would be a question you’d be afraid to tell the truth on?
What is your Social Security Number?
55) You can re-live any point of time in your life. The time-span can only be a half-hour, though. What half-hour of your past would you like to experience again?
I’m not sure I’d want to re-live anything...
Maybe something soothing and reminiscent, like a half-hour when I was in elementary school during the summer...we’d come out of class and be surprised by Otter Pops, still cold, and we’d sit around the big tree in our courtyard and just have a good time.
57) You have the opportunity to sleep with the music-celebrity of your choice. Who would it be?
No thank you, I’m not just going around sleeping with random celebrities. (Safety kids safety) If we make sure it’s JUST A PG SLEEPOVER, then BTS, to be honest, seem like they would be so much fun…
59) Ever been on a plane?
