1. Would you rather be a writer or a film director?
Director, definitely. When it comes to films, I'd love to have controls over the visuals etc. And you have something to work from. Writers have a blank page
2. Favourite season?
Autumn!
3. Radio station of choice?
Radio 1.
4. Favourite comedians?
Michael McIntyre, Simon Amstell, Chris Addison, Joe Lycett (!!), Dara O Briain. The list goes on and on.
5. Who is your girl crush?
I don't really have any. Err, I'll say Foxes or Jennifer Lawrence. Wouldn't call them girl crushes though.
6. Preferred genre of book or film?
Comedy
7. Which celebrity do you most want to meet?
I've met pretty much all the ones I really want to meet (lucky me). Maybe Patrick Stump. Or Joe Lycett, because I got so close last time & he sounds lovely from when you met him! Or someone from Doctor Who.
8. Most important feature of the face?
As in, on other people? The eyes.
9. Five tracks you’d take with you to a desert island for six months?
That's so difficult!!!
Paper Tigers -Owl City
Pompeii - Bastille
Sugar, We're Going Down -Fall Out Boy
Glorious - Foxes (whenever I need the motivation)
Snap Out of It - Arctic Monkeys.
But my music taste always changes so I'll probably go crazy anyway
10. What thing in the world makes you happiest?
(Apart from family) -Making people laugh. Always. Nothing can even compare to that kind of joy
The sweet sherlockholmes-baby tagged me to do the 'say 5 nice things about yourself publicly' thing, which I'll now attempt -
i hardly ever forget to take a pizza out of the oven before it burns
i've become (a bit) better at handling my anxiety issues (sometimes)
i can play the piano a bit
(though it's not very impressive since i used to go to lessons for like 8 years and the only thing i can play without notes is the beginning of für elise)
my dog thinks i'm really cool
I'm so bad at that meme, I'm sorry. :---)
I also got tagged to the questions thing by the-jellyfox. That is under the cut to save your dashboard and because I'm dreadfully boring.
1. Would you rather be a writer or a film director?
Both, I think. I'd really like to be both of them, too (I think. I'm not sure about anything in my life). But I think I'd maybe make a better writer than director because I'm really bad at telling people what they should do.
2. Favourite season?
Summer! I do whine when it gets too hot but summer is still the best season. I like fall as well, though.
3. Radio station of choice?
I don't really listen to radio that much, and when I do, I just station surf until I hear something I even remotely like.
4. Favourite comedians?
I HAVE SO MANY. LITERALLY TONS. But let's do like ten off the top of my head - Jimmy Carr, Noel Fielding, Richard Ayoade, Dylan Moran, Jon Richardson, Lee Mack, David Mitchell, Katherine Ryan, Miranda Hart and Simon Amstell. I also really love Alan Davies, Aisling Bea, Mark Watson and Rhod Gilbert.
5. Who is your girl crush?
I have plenty but they include Ellen Page, Robin Tunney, Aisling Bea, Katherine Ryan and Sabine Schmitz.
6. Preferred genre of book or film?
I like books and films that have a bit of everything. But mainly comedy.
7. Which celebrity do you most want to meet?
Any of my favourite comedians. Noel Fielding's really high that list because he seems so nice and it probably wouldn't be as terrifying meeting him than meeting a lot of the other people I like? And obviously I'd love to meet Richard Hammond but that'd be way too scary and that's also never going to happen, so.
8. Most important feature of the face?
Eyes, I guess. I don't know, really.
9. Five tracks you’d take with you to a desert island for six months?
Ah this is a great question! At the moment they would be eez-eh by Kasabian, The Truth and Best Friend by Foster The People, I Don't Believe You by The Magnetic Fields (because I never tire of it) and Alec Eiffel by Pixies.
10. What thing in the world makes you happiest?
Making people laugh. Hanging out with friends. A good game of Monopoly. Going to see stand up or a concert. It's really easy to make me really happy most of the time.
I was tagged by eventualprocrastination, tamikaflym and the-jellyfox Thanks everyone x
I'm not going to tag anyone this time, I don't have time to come up with questions mainly cause I still need to finish packing for my trip tomorrow!
Long post with all my answers under the cut :)
2. How much wood could a woodchuck chuck if a woodchuck could chuck wood? Not as much wood as you'd think.
3. If one train is traveling at 100 miles per hour and left the station at 6pm, and a squirrel in the woods can’t find it’s nuts, what time will the train pass through the forest on it’s way to the North Pole? 11.13. Trust me, I've done the math.
4. What’s your favorite word? I don't know about favourite, but I really like the word 'tranquillity', it's just really evocative for me, just the sound of it makes me think about something calm, about water gently flowing, I don't know...
5. What’s your least favorite word? I think it's balaclava. It just sounds weird to me.
6. If you had to live a year of your life in the past (anytime prior to your birth year), when would it be? Maybe the 70s? Or the Renaissance could be quite good
7. If you fell in love with someone in the past, would you choose to stay there and live out the rest of your days or would you return to the present to be with your family and friends? I'm not that much of a romantic, so I'd come back to the present, where I belong and where my loved ones are.
8. Can I call you and depend on you for help if I ever need to get rid of a body? Anytime. And I'd hope you'd do the same for me.
9. If you won the lottery and were financially set for the rest of your life, what would be the first three things you would spend your money on? DVDs (lots of them), clothes and a new phone. Yes, those are my priorities.
10. Would you rather get stung by five wasps or kicked really hard in the peen/vageen? Ohh, they're both very painful experiences, but I'm terrified of wasps, so a kick in the privates would at least spare me of the element of fear (although ouch)
11. A new planet has been discovered and you get to name it. What name do you choose? Probably something stupid, like 'Dave'.
do you like the school you’re going to? It's been a while since I went to school, but yeah, I always liked my schools
who was your favorite disney princess as a child? Mulan, probably.
someone offers you the chance of immortality - do you take it? I think I'd get bored after a while. Although... unlimited time to watch tv shows... But there's that thing of having to watch everyone around you die, so no.
do you own any pets? Yes, two cats!
last movie you watched? did you enjoy it? The Double. Yeah, it was really good :)
where do you normally shop for clothes? Shopping centres
last person you spoke to on the phone? My aunt
favorite tv show? The Mighty Boosh
favourite thing about yourself? My passion for the things I love
if you could get away with anything, what would you do? Eat whatever I want without feeling ill (or getting fat)?
least favourite word/phrase? See above
1. Would you rather be a writer or a film director? Writer. I've always been more interested in writing and words in general, rather than visuals.
2. Favourite season? Whatever season we're not in at the moment, 'cause I'm always complaining about the weather :) But spring, probably.
3. Radio station of choice? I don't really listen to radio
4. Favourite comedians? Noel Fielding, Julian Barratt, Richard Ayoade, Jack Whitehall, Dylan Moran, Russell Brand, Simon Amstell and I'm going to stop now because the list could go on forever.
5. Who is your girl crush? Jessica Hynes
6. Preferred genre of book or film? I really like science fiction and dystopias
7. Which celebrity do you most want to meet? Any one of my favourite comedians, just to tell them how brilliant they are. (Although really I'd just freeze and not be able to say a word)
8. Most important feature of the face? Eyes. Eyes eyes eyes.
9. Five tracks you’d take with you to a desert island for six months? Well, here are five song I currently can't stop listening to: Bliss (Muse), Man of simple pleasures (Kasabian), Red right hand (Arctic Monkeys), Tranquilize (The Killers feat. Lou Reed), Come down (White Lies)
10. What thing in the world makes you happiest? Having a laugh with friends or members of my family I actually like ;) Also, watching comedy.
