Rule 2: Answer the questions set by the person that tagged you and then ask your own 11 questions.
Rule 4: Let them know that you tagged ‘em.
I was tagged by inmy-mindseye !!
Well, that's a difficult question... I will choose the five that impressed me the most the moment I watched them!
• Sherlock Holmes (only the first one)
This is also a tough question, because this my top 5 changes every week! I'm discovering new songs and they become my favourite ones for one or two weeks!! So I'm just going to go with some of my personal all time classics...
• Radiohead - Karma Police
• Muse - Time is running out
• Yeah Yeah Yeahs - M.A.P.S.
• Joy Division - Transmission
3. A city you’ve never been to but you really want to visit…
Oh the truth is that I've only been in Paris and Rom! This means that there are still so many important, beautiful and big cities that I want to visit!
First of all I want not only to visit but also live in London!!! London is my favourite city in every aspect! Other cities that I defifnitely want to visit are: Amsterdam, Copenhagen, Milan, Madrid, San Francisco and Tokyo!!
4. What 3 crazy things you would like to do before you die?
Well I only now realised that I enjoy very much the feeling of my adrenaline reaching high levels, so exactly because I am very scared of heights, I want to do bungee-jumping!
Another thing I normally would be very afraid to do, at least now, is to speak to a very big croud. Most people think I'm not capable of doing this and it's true that I often get nervous even when people simply notice my existence, but I would really like to do this. Also my speech would be in a conference or something. It’s not very crazy, but it is not very common either….
And… I really have no idea what the third would be… Maybe kiss a guy that I like without warning him?? Yup that sounds good.
5. If you could go back in time in what historical period would you like to go?
Well, there are so many historical periods that excite me! Especially the 18th and 19th century in Europe. Most of today's theories about society and economics were developed during these centuries, so it would be great to see the way things were beginning to change. Of course I would prefer to go there just as a visitor, not actually live my whole life. And the reason is that if I was unlucky enough I would be born poor and die poor and life for poor people back then was a nightmare.
6. A fictional character you find inspiring and why
Um… Well, many fictional characters inspire me, especially the ones who pay attention to the details and are the best in their fields, such as Sherlock Holmes or Dexter Morgan. BUT, I will say Cary Agos from “The Good Wife”, because there are people like him in real life, not just in fiction. He represents what I wanted to be in my dreams, a young lawyer who has studied in a great university. He is very hard-working, but also resourceful.
7. A fictional character you can relate to
Lady Edith from Downton Abbey maybe? I am quite an introvert, I like helping people, but I can do a lot of harm, if I feel that life is unfair to me…
8. What do you miss most about your childhood?
I miss believing in Santa Claus!!! It was so great To wake up the 1st of January and opening my present!! That was a day I had no homework; I would just play with my new toys all day long!!!
9. Do you play any musical instruments? If yes, which one(s)?
I play the cello, actually! Since the age of 8 my father wanted me to learn to play a musical instrument. I also have piano lessons the last 5 years, because it is compulsory. It's funny though that now I like piano much more!
10. If you had the chance, would you travel to another planet?
Definitely!!! They are soo beautiful and enormous and they are so far away from earth. And if there were any aliens around there, then I would be the first to visit them (well not literally the first one, but you got the idea...!)
11. How and why did you decide to join tumblr?
My friend Ksanthi told me about it last year! She said it had many pictures about movies and fashion! However, because I confuse names, I thought she meant a website called stumble upon (you got to admit that I was very close!) But a couple of months later I saw on another website "follow us on tumblr" and it hit me that this was the site Ksanthi was telling me about! Firstly I wanted to use it like a journal, write things that happen to me or my ideas, but then I followed a couple of fandom blogs, almost accidentally and ... never looked back, because I got very excited!!
1. Your favourite quote is...
2. Which is your favourite book?
3. Which is your favourite sport?
4. 7 favourite bands or artists!
5. What would be your dream job?
6. Tea or coffee? or maybe hot chocolate??
7. Which book, movie or series would you like it to become your reality / take part in? I don't mean as a character that already exists, but as a new, different character who can have his own actions and role in the story.
8. How would your life be if internet never existed?
9. Would you like to learn what will happen to you in the future if you had the chance?
10. A spell form Harry Potter that you would like to be able to cast? If you are not a Harry Potter fan, which superpower would you like to have?
