Do you have any hobbies?

Writing (though only on my blog at the moment), watching telly, reading, photography, travelling

What was a good high school memory?

Our trip to Holland was very funny. We ate horse-meat one night at the hotel, though we didn’t know it at the time – we just thought it was dodgy beef…

Weird is… folk (people, not the music).

Name three things you’re grateful for

My family, my life and my income! A girl’s gotta eat!

If your best friend was right here, what would you say?

Girl, where have you been? You don’t call, you don’t write…

My favorite time of the day…

The witching hour and beyond, when everyone else is asleep.

One food you would never give up is…

Fried dumplings, yum!

Describe five things that you can see right now.

Ikea chair, Butterkist popcorn, Hair food tub, Next work shoes, Notebook

Describe yourself as if you were your own best friend.

PJ is funny, resilient, quirky and generous. She’s a bit of a tomboy mostly, but once in a while she’ll break out her feminine wares. I keep on telling her to get herself a good man, but she won’t listen… she’s a hard-headed one sometimes!

My top favourite songs right now are…

  • Maneater by Nelly Furtado
  • The Creeps by Camille Jones vs. Fedde Le Grand
  • Sex Shooter by Firefox (written by Prince)
  • Sexy Back by Justin Timberlake
  • Lollipop by Dada Ft. Sandy Rivera & Trix

Are you happy? Why?

I could be happier. I feel frustrated with myself for not living the life I desire.

What did you accomplish last year?

I quit the job that was crushing my spirit, and found a part-time job which suits me better, and makes me feel like I’m contributing towards society.

Your present job makes you…

Feel somewhat virtuous

Depression… is my pimp, waiting on the street corner outside to kick my butt.

A time I want to experience again…

My class trip to Spain, in 1997. It was such a fun time.

Do you ever think about growing old?

Sometimes, but not for long.

Are you always right?

Hardly ever, but I’m okay with that.

On a typical day I…

Laze around and think, or read

Do you believe in love at first sight?

No, but lust at first sight is very common

When I’m angry…

I keep the rage inside, and seethe or play passive-aggressive.

If you were to publish a book about yourself, what will you title it?

Wait and see

Design a perfect day.

I’m staying in Madeira with my boyfriend. The weather is lovely and I’ve got nothing to do all day. My guy and I are alone in our hotel room. The ceiling fan keeps us cool as we cuddle.

When I’m sad…

I carry on.

How old do you want to be?

27 forever!

What remains constant in your life?

A longing for more.
