1. If you were famous, what would you like to be famous for?
I’d like to be a famous writer one day - but I’ll have to figure out what story I want to tell first. I’ve got loads and I’m not sure which to go for.
2. Would you rather live underground or up high?
Ummm... I have an unfortunate habit of keeping my curtains closed so unless I’m out I probably won’t know the difference - but I guess up high? Underground I’d be paranoid something would happen and I couldn’t get out. But that’s just me being weird.
3. What is your ideal weather like?
Hot and Dry. Maybe with a little breeze but a warm one. I don’t like being cold and I’m only warm when everyone else is one the verge of melting.
4. If your life was a movie, what would be the theme song?
Something with a upbeat tune and lyrics that are a bit zany. A barenaked ladies type of song. But some of the lyrics are sad but only if you pay attention.
5. Is there a story/song/book/film/etc. that changed your life?
Um... a lot of them. A great book, film or series that I can obsess about - but I guess Buffy The Vampire Slayer and Harry Potter both led me online and ultimately here so... them probably.
6. What are you like in the mornings?
Immediately after I wake up I mostly talk in grunts (I am trying to speak but that’s what it sounds like) and look confused - but within half an hour I’m bright and chirpy - One of those annoying people who are all “good morning!” and smiley even at 7am - as long as I’ve had that half an hour to wake up.
7. How would you describe your ideal future home?
I need several big rooms for my DVD and book collection - in fact a big geek room would be needed (possibly two) for the various bits of geek goodies I’ve collected so I can display them properly. I’d like a swimming pool too - but only if I get super rich. Black-out curtains (light wakes me up too easily).
8. What would you want people to notice/think about you after meeting you for the first time?
I’d hope they’d like me, think I was a friendly type of person. I wouldn’t be surprised if they thought I was strange though - I don’t bother reining that in anymore.
9. Do you believe in any superstitions?
I always throw spilled salt over my left shoulder. I can’t stop myself from saying “bless you” when I hear someone sneeze (even if I don’t know them - and even if you sneeze multiple times) - it was how I was raised, I don’t even think about it. I knock on wood if I say something that could be tempted by fate if I don’t. I make wishes on eyelashes - yeah I do follow superstitions.
10. Are you more idealistic, more cynical, a mix of the two or would your describe in completely different terms?
I’m an optimist first and foremost but that doesn’t mean I can’t also be cynical about situations or people. I guess my feeling is summed up with hope for the best but prepare for the worse.
11. A perfect place to settle down or a life in perpetual motion - which sounds more appealing to you?
Though I’d like to see more of the world ultimately I think a settled down existence would be nice - especially since most of my favourite activities involve sitting on your arse for long periods of time.
1) If money wasn’t an issue where would your ideal holiday/s be.
2) Have you ever been snorkling/scuba diving?
3) Have you ever done a Tarot reading and if you haven’t would you?
4) If you don’t have to go out anywhere do you bother getting dressed or stay in your pyjamas.
5) Do you have a type of music you like - or is it just whatever you fancy?
6) What’s your favourite season and why.
7) Tell us about your favourite teacher.
8) Which book do you think everyone should read and why.
9) What’s your option of reality tv?
10) What job would you love to do if it could just happen?
11) What’s your belief in an afterlife?
I’m gonna tag a few people but you don’t have to do it if you don’t. Likewise if you fancy doing it feel free.
