Hmm, no one about. Well, perhaps I can at least make this entry look a little more lively. :)

1. Can you cook?

Yep to a limited degree. Stir fry and pasta dishes are my specialty.


2. What was your dream growing up?

Seeing the rest of the world at least once. As I write this I just have Africa, India, Australia and the Far East left to go.


3. What talent do you wish you had?

Either a better understanding of computers and technology, or basically just better drawing skills would be appreciated.


4. Favorite place?

A winter swept forest in the dead of a moon lit December night. I honestly can not think of any truer definition of beauty than that.


5. Favorite vegetable?

Baby corn. Don't know why but I can't get enough of those.


6. What was the last book you read?

Why We Buy: The Science of Shopping by Paco Underhill, which frankly should be required reading for anyone working in retail.


7. What zodiac sign are you ?

Aries.


8. Any Tattoos and/or Piercings?

None, and no intention of getting either any time soon.



9. Worst Habit?

That would have to be a toss up between my nail biting and the way I always need to have something in my hands to fidget with if I'm not doing anything important.


10. Do we know each other outside of lj?

I would like to hope so.


11. What is your favorite sport?

Another toss up. Swimming is something I've done and loved all my life, but squash is a very addictive game that's far better suited to inner city gyms where space is tight.



12. Negative or Optimistic attitude?

Well from our chats I guess there's no denying it, negative.


13. What would you do if you were stuck in an elevator with me?

Probably strike up a conversation and see what we could find out about each other while we had the time.


14. Worst thing to ever happen to you?

Having my cousin OD on drugs because she didn't have the courage to try to break the habit, then having one of my friends shoot himself as a means of ensuring cancer didn't claim his life first.



15. Tell me one weird fact about you:

Everyone in my entire family (Aunts, grandparents cousins and uncles included) have either brown or blue eyes. Me and my brother are the only ones with different coloured eyes (see question 22 below).


16. Do you have any pets?

Not at the moment, but I've had quite a few in the past.


17. Do you know how to do the macerana?

Nope, but if you know someone who could teach me I'd probably pick it up pretty quickly.


18. What time is it where you are now?

7:20 p.m.


19. Do you think clowns are cute or scary?

I think they're annoying child molesters with extremely bad dress sense.



20. If you could change one thing about how you look, what would it be?

Having skin that isn't always dry, cracked, peeling and in need of an endless amount of moisturizing cream. I don't know what the hell causes it (had my thyroid checked twice now and it's in prefect working order) but it's the bane of my life.


21. Would you be my crime partner or my conscience?

Depends on my mood. If I were feeling upbeat and cheerful then probably crime partner. If I were down and dreary, yeah then is when my need to be a moral guide for someone would be at it's highest.



22. What color eyes do you have?

I honestly can't say, it's like half way between forest green and deep hazel. I can't for the life of me figure out where I got it because neither of my parents have those colour eyes, and most of my more artistically inclined friends say they don't recognize it either.



23. Ever been arrested?

No, well not yet. I'm told it's good for a full rounded healthy upbringing though.


24. Bottle or Draft?

Draft. Bottles are frowned upon in British pubs.


25. If you won $10,000 dollars today, what would you do with it?

Put half of it into savings and a fair portion in investments, but I'd leave enough of a remainder to go out and live it up on the town for at least a few nights. ;)


26. What kind of bubble gum do you prefer to chew?

Either grape or sour apple. Brand really doesn't matter to me.


27. What 's your favorite bar to hang at?

I'm not really big on hanging around in bars. Restaurants, night clubs, arcades, galleries, concert halls and pretty much anywhere else is okay but bars are out for the moment.


28. Do you believe in ghosts?

Yes, because English history is steeped in references to them and frankly that'd make life so much more cool if they did exist.


29. Favorite thing to do in your spare time?

Either write stories or go out and see what was happening in the world around me. Wish I have more time to do either of them lately to be honest.


30. Do you swear a lot?

Not excessively. If I'm upset or enraged about something I might swear to help emphasise my point but I don't rely on it as a lazy replacement for decent speech.


31. Biggest pet peeve?

See question 20 above. That and people who can't accept no for an answer or take the blame for their mistakes.


32. In one word, how would you describe yourself?

Accepting


33. Will you repost this so I can fill it out and do the same for you?

I'm kind of off memes for the moment. Surely you can reply back to me over IM can't you? Please?
