Another day, another Tumblr tag...
What a time to be me! I love these question tag things, and courtesy of raggedyrighteous, I've got another one for all of you. :D
Rule one: Always post the rules
Rule two: answer the questions the person who tagged you asked and write 11 new ones
Rule three: tag 11 people in the post
So, now down to business...
1) Favourite meal of the day?
Probably supper. A late night bowl of cereal or some toast or leftover pizza or whatever's in the fridge, maybe with some hot chocolate.
I do love a good roast dinner as well, although I don't really have them too often.
2) Something you're looking forward to?
I probably won't feel the same once they've started, but I'm really looking forward to lectures starting again. Learning chemistry is awesome, and I'll get to see my friends and all of the lecturers again, and go in the library and the labs and the lecture halls, which I just love because I guess I'm a bit of a geek. Plus it will be nice to have a schedule again, which I haven't had for months.
Aren't most drinks soft, by virtue of their being liquids? I suppose soft drinks rolls off the tongue better than carbonated drinks though.
In all seriousness, has to be lemonade.
4) What would you want to have done by this time next year?
Done the couple of things I've been putting off doing for months, and also worked out how to study properly.
5) Would you recommend the last book you read?
It's Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, so yes, definitely.
6) Tell me about a happy memory.
One that sticks out is when I was walking back to halls with a friend one afternoon, and I was feeling really happy, and I started singing a happy song in my head and wibbling this flyer I'd picked up from some person we'd passed. I was just really happy at that point, and I was grinning like an idiot, and my friend looked at me strangely, I suppose because I seemed so inexplicably happy.
And then I went on to explain that I was feeling happy because I was wibbling the paper and the song in my head had reached a crescendo and I was talking and happy. I may also have started dancing down the street and spinning around and my friend was smiling and I was just really, really happy for no real reason at all.
7) Have you ever dyed your hair?
Twice in my life. One time I dyed it blue with some dye my brother won in a raffle, but it was designed for blonde haired people and my hair colour barely changed, so I felt a bit silly.
It'd have to be dawn for me. Sometimes when I can't sleep I'll go for early morning walks and I'll the sky beginning to lighten and everything is still quiet and cold, there's the odd light here and there, and maybe a generator humming in the distance. It's like the world's been put on standby, and it's just great for clearing my head and having a think about things.
9) How many mirrors in your room?
I've got two now: One above the sink (yes, I have a sink in my room) and one of those body length wavy ones by the side of my wardrobe. This is the great improvement because up to now I've never had one, but always wanted one.
10) Have you ever been camping?
Yes I have. I go to summer camp with my Scout group every year, and before I came to Uni I'd go camping with them for a few weekends throughout the year as well.
It's not exactly within the remit of the question, but I'm going to use this opportunity to say how brilliant camping is. Campfires and singing and card games and just being outdoors and seeing nature all around you and the dewy fields in the mornings and being snug inside your tent while the rain pours down outside.
11) Favourite type of takeaway food?
They're one of my favourite types of food full stop: Noodles. I don't get them that often, but noodles in a box is the image I have of a traditional takeaway, and they're such incredible comfort food and I just really, really like them.
And now for my questions:
1) Do you have a lucky number? If so, what is it and is there a reason behind it?
2) Who would you choose to play the next Doctor and why?
3) What was the first job you ever wanted to do?
4) Do you support a team? If so who and why?
5) Give a word that rhymes with "scone".
6) Marmite: Love, hate, ambivalent or other?
7) What's your favourite place?
8) Night owl or early bird?
9) What's the most difficult thing you've ever done?
10) What are you most proud of?
11) Do you prefer to plan everything meticulously or just wing it?
As for tagging, I did one of these yesterday as well, and I don't want to compel anyone to do these, so anyone who sees these questions and wants to do them, feel free.
And once again, thanks to raggedyrighteous for the nomination.
