Questions about me

26. Most Embarrassing moment?

During highschool we had a play, and I was the main character. In the ending scene I was supposed to shout, “Marrriaa!”
However I have difficulty with a Mexican sounding “r.” So it ended up sounding like “MMwwwrrriah” and everyone started laughing. At that moment, I wished I had the ability to continuously shrink and disappear into nothingness. Alas, but I can’t.

27a. Can you drive?

Yes, my motto is: Safety>Urgency>Passenger Comfort

27b. Do you own a car?

Sort of.

28. Are you mature?

Usually.

29. What year were you born?

1987

30. Do you prefer cats or dogs?

I love both of them, but I prefer cats since… they’re so difficult.

31. Describe yourself physically.

Average height, lean build “HU! ha! herrr!” <shadowboxes like a ninja boxer>, My mom thinks I’m handsome, I think I don’t look too shabby as well, but I’m not sure if that counts. My niece said I look a bit like Seiji from Whisper of the Heart, especially the hair. Not too sure about that, but I might agree with the hair. I’m not that fair skinned though.

    

See? the hair!

32. What would you name your first child?

hmmmm…. nothing in mind. I’ll cross that bridge when I get there.

33. What is the worst injury you have ever had?

My worst injury happened when I was a child. I tied a blue towel around my neck and was jumping around on the sofa shouting SUPERMAN!!! Turns out that the man of steel’s head was no match against a concrete corner post. Blood everywhere! D:

34. What is your worse habit?

I crack my finger joints for both fingers and toes unconsciously. I repress it when I’m conscious, but it pops up every now and then. I also randomly burst out into song every so often.

35. Do you drink or smoke?

No x2. I prefer not to take something that affects my sense of judgement and… having a vice that has that many negative effects with so little return value.

36. Do you have a tattoo?

No. I don’t like the idea of permanently attaching something that I might regret later on.

37. Are you a morning person or a night person?

Have been both at different stages in life.

38. Have you ever slept past midday

Yes, the longest slumber I recall was one right after a really tiring 4 day bivuoac. I slept 9 in the evening and woke up around 6pm the next day. I had dinner and then went to sleep again. -.- zzzzz

39. Do you regret anything?

Yes. If didn’t regret anything though, it means I had lived a perfect life. Which I haven’t. Although if it means being able to accept the way things as they are even if some of those experiences are bad, in that sense I guess I don’t regret anything.

40. Can you count the number of friends you have on one hand?

Friends that I really feel relaxed and comfortable with as though they were family, I could count on two hands.

41. Do you wear glasses?

Nope. I liked the idea though when I was little.

42. Are you a picky eater?

Yes, but I FORCE myself to eat those veggies, especially bitter gourds/melons. GRAWNOMNOMNOM GULP!

43. Would you die for someone?

If it’s to save someone else’s life? Yes. I think so. Although we wouldn’t really know unless it comes down to that situation.

44. If you could have any superpower, what would it be?

Nothing too common. I’ve toyed around with the idea that it would be great if people were able to make other people feel exactly what they feel.

45. Do you believe in the supernatural?

Defining supernatural as “something beyond the natural world.” Yes. If everything in life can be measured by the senses or could be grasped by logic, life would be very boring, to the point of being meaningless.

46. Would you rather be rich or famous?

I would like to be rich without anyone knowing that I am.

47. Have you ever committed a crime.

No. I’ve done wrong things before, but not so great in magnitude as to constitute a crime in the legal sense.

48. Pirates or ninjas? Time Traveler or ghost?

Ninjas. although they are both cool. A time traveler sounds much more interesting.

49. Does someone have a crush on you?

So… how do I even verify this? Maybe.

50. Are you in a relationship?

Yes, sort of.
