fenway03 tagged me!
1. Aren’t you glad I tagged you?
Well yes actually. It’s given me something to do during a quiet spells at work. And I am finding that I do actually like questions that make me think a lil bit. Thank you. :)
2. Where were you on 9/11?
I was at work when the news hit. I’m in the UK so it would’ve been about 2pm or something here. It was such a shock, and I was close to someone in the States back then, so I was really worried. They weren’t in NYC or anything, just Texas, but still, you worry don’t you? I remember being glued to the news for the rest of the day.
3. If you could travel back in time and erase one person from history, who would you kick into oblivion?
I guess this doesn’t really count as a person from history, per se, like proper history :) But to avoid the obvious answers of people like Hitler etc. I’ll go with Fred Phelps, founder of the Westboro Baptist Church. Then that’d be all those fuckers gone.
4. What’s your favourite word?
Petrichor
5. Have you already met the love of your life?
Nope. Or if I have I don’t know it yet.
6. Would you kill 1 person (someone you don’t know) if you could thereby save 200 other people (you don’t know them either)?
Hah! Fitting, seeing as you wrote a fic revolving around these types of questions. ;)
Hmm, in theory? Yes. But I don’t know if I could do something like that if it actually came down to it. Y’know? Who really knows what they’d truly do until they’re actually put in a situation like that?
7. Your own movie has been green-lit and you have full creative control & a nice budget. What kind of movie would you make and who would star in it?
Something dramatic and gritty. Something about our sense of self. Identity. Something that conveys to your average person how it feels to be so lost inside your self and not know who you really are. Whether in terms of gender identity or whatever. I dunno.
Whatever it turned out to be about, think Darren Aronofsky’s Requiem for a Dream and The Fountain for tone. I’d hire Clint Mansell to do the music too. I’d want Kate Winslet in there somewhere (my fave actress) and a good role for Angie Harmon as I really want her to see her do something decent that she could really sink her teeth into because i’ve seen glimpses of great moments from her in Law & Order, WMC and Rizzoli & Isles. I always have to work her in to at least one of my answers on these things! ;)
8. Have you ever felt a moment of pure happiness/joy? When and where? (Orgasms don’t count.)
Pure happiness? Blimey. I can’t think. Probably had moments at school with friends when I was a kid.
9. Red wine or white wine?
Ugh. Neither. Don’t know how people drink that stuff. It’s like vinegar!
10. Imagine you can ask 1 person (living or dead) 1 question and you’ll get a complete and honest answer. Whom would you ask, and what would your question be?
This one’s got me stumped. I can’t think of someone I’d want to ask a question.
Actually, no, I got it. I would ask my mother’s mother - as far as i’m concerned i don’t have any grandparents anymore - why the hell she’s ignored my mum and I for the past several years!
11. Are you happy?
In the grand sense? Meh. I’ve been a lot worse so i’d say i’m plodding along quite nicely at the moment, for me. So i’m not going to complain too much
==============
Okay my questions. Bugger. Ummmmm…
1) What is the one thing you want to have achieved in your life before you expire? 2) If you could live anywhere in the world where would it be? 3) What never fails to put a smile on your face? 4) What three words best describe you? 5) What moment in history would you most like to have witnessed? 6) Which book/film/tv character would you say is most like you? 7) If you had to sacrifice one of your senses which would you choose? 8) If you were given the power to create a new law and abolish a current one, what would they be? 9) Name a song that would work as your own personal theme tune? 10) What skill do you wish you had? 11) What is your biggest regret?
