Survey thingy

[alixandrea]

Do you like having your picture taken?

Yes, I'm a terrible exhibitionist. Actually, I'd love to go into modelling.

If you could go anywhere in the world where would you go and why?

Everywhere. I'd like to see as much of the world as possible before I die. More specifically I've wanted to go to New Zealand for some time now, it always looks so beautiful when used in films.

Have you ever done crossword puzzles?

Yeah but they bore me after a while. I have a very short attention span.

Pick up the closest book and write a sentence at random from it:

Bah! All the books around this computer are geeky ones!!

Do the same with a lyric from either a cd or the radio:

'Love dares you to care for the people on the edge of the night.' Of course...

Have you ever tried to analyze your own dreams?

Yeah all the time. The ones I remember most vividly are the ones that predicted a change in my life.

Can you sing?

www.skelliga.org

Do you ever sing to yourself while doing everyday tasks?

Yes, although mostly when I have something to sing to.

What's your favorite color of post-it note?

Do the come in purple?

Have you ever lied to get off the phone or out of talking to someone on line?

Yeah, I'm bad on the phone. I tend to say, 'oh, I'm busy' which is true, its just that I can probably spare them more time anyway...

Is your vcr flashing 12:00 all the time?

*Looks* no, but I don't think its set.

Do you read your horoscope?

Yeah, I know its not going to be accurate but sometimes there's a grain of truth in all the sand.

Would you rather chew gum or use mouthwash and why?

Mouthwash, gum gets on my nerves. I used to chew bubblegum all the time, but I grew out of it. That melt-in-your-mouth stuff is good for giving instant fresh breath if you're out, but I got used to using mouthwash when I got my toungue pierced, so its definitely the preferred method.

How many times a year about are you sick?

Quite rarely as long as I can take time out if I do get ill. If I'm stressed and can't relax I get very poorly indeed.

Ever been in an airplane?

Not as many times as I'd like.

What radio station to you listen to most?

The only one I seem to be able to get here in the car is Q103, which occasionally has some gems in it, and has turned me on to T.A.T.U. I would like to be able to get Star more often (especially as the radio house is just down the road) and I really miss X-fm although I'm not sure what its like these days.

Do you know how to play dominoes?

Yeah, I think so. Its been a while.

What color are your eyes?:

Blue-grey.

How many surveys have you filled out this lifetime?

*Shrugs* who knows?

Name one person your life is made better by:

Erik. Skelliga.

Can you do math with ease?

Some. With simple maths I often find the answer comes like a flash of intuition - although I always check to make sure I'm right.

Are you a vegetarian?

Almost.

How about an aspiring actor/actress:

Once upon a time.

Which movie can you watch and say the lines along with the actors?

The Princess Bride, The Crow, Fight Club, Labyrinth.

Worktime.

Octarine

Ever listen to classical music?

Occasionally, although I rarely go out of my way to.

Have you ever said 'lol' in real life without thinking about it?

Heh! I actually use far too many Internet-isms in real life...

What is the best present you've ever given someone else?

An extended lifespan...?

What is the best present someone else has ever given to you?

Life.

Do you wear a watch?

I will do when it finally comes back from being fixed. Althoguh I am thinking about getting another cheap one just because my 21st birthday watch is rather special and I don't want to break it again.

Write one sentence stating what you want people to say about you after you've passed on

'She inspired the world to think.'

Describe the ideal superpower and what you would do if you had it.

Empathic telepathy. I don't want to be able to read people's minds as such, but I'd like to have a better clue about what some people are thinking sometimes. I would also like to be a genius, but there you go.

Name something you've done in the last 24 hours no matter how big or small:

Helped to sail a 55ft broad-beam dutch barge down to London from Royston.

Do you wear necklaces, bracelets, anklets, earrings, rings?

Yes, although I only have one piece of jewellery that never comes off, the copper bracelet on my right wrist. Erik and I both have one, and they were both made by a wiccan friend of mine (who I haven't seen in far too long.)

What's on your computer desk?

On _my_ computer desk there's a few CDs and bits of paper from cutting out Demo covers. On this desk there's just STUFF...

My boyfriend and half of Skelliga's equipment.

Harp, violin, saxophone, bagpipes (no, really) Irish flute, bodran, piano (OK, I have played some piano before, but not very well...)

Have you ever been on tv or the radio?

Not yet (I have been filmed for a TV piece but it was never used...)

What is the worst thing anyone could ever do to you?

Betray my trust.

Are you a fast typer?

Not accurately.

Describe how you sleep:

On my side, one leg up to support my body, arms around a pillow. Usually with Erik curled around me.

Have you ever read a book and not understood it? If so which one?

Some book I read on Chaos theory when I was 13. Fascinating, but I had to give up half-way through as my brain was about to start trickling out through my ears.

Do people pick up your slang language more than you pick up theirs?

No, I always pick up new slang, I'm a word-magpie! :-)

Possibly once, but I can't think now what it was...

Have a successful career as a musician. Touch the lives of as many people as possible before I die. Travel.

No.

Tell me about your dream last night.

I'm not sure what it was, I know I had some vivid flashes of things, but I can't remember anything now but the colour green.

Are people's perceptions of you usually correct?

Not always.

When they start sending rockets to the moon for us civilians, will you be on the list to go?
Well, I'm English, for a start. ~s~ But, er, no. I like my earth.

Travel?! *Eyes light up*

Have you ever written anything on your skin?

Hasn't everyone...?

What color are most of your clothes?

Black, white, red, green, purple.

Are things as bad as they seem?

Almost never.

Do you like to look people in the eye?

I _would_ like to look people in the eye, but that's not the same thing. I have issues with looking people in the eye as I know my father used to really un-nerve me when he did it, and we share eye colour.
