Your Best Physical Feature: my left ear. i have no issues with my left ear.
Your Bedtime: on a work night? ideally, 10:00!
Your Most Missed Memory: i don't get the question. the memory i miss the most? this doesn't make sense, i'm boycotting the question.
Pepsi or Coke: i suppose coke, but it would have to be flat, and with lots of ice. I hate fizzy drinks.
MacDonalds or Burger King: ...McDonalds. I'ts shameful, but i love that place.
Single or Group Dates: group dates.
Lipton Ice Tea or Nestea: never tried either. not a big tea fan in any case.

Do you belive in yourself: do i 'belive' in myself? belive is not a word. i assume the question is 'do you beliEve in yourself,' and again - stupid question, i'm boycotting.
Do you get Motion Sickness: OUI! i certainly do. I need to take my Kwik Kwell chewable travel pills with me everywhere - bus / train / car trips, planes, boats...this is why i'm not a big rollercoaster fan.

Are you a Health Freak: erm...no. i wish.
Do you get along with your Parents: yes. most of the time. we get along much better when i'm not living with them.
Do you like Thunderstorms: eep! no. also one of my fears. the thunder, not the lightning. i know it's an irrational fear, but i hate the noise!

In the past month have you Smoked:
In the past month have you been on Drugs: no. wait, do cold and flu tablets count? they were the extra strong variety.

In the past month have you been Dumped: no.
In the past month have you gone Skinny Dipping: no.
In the past month have you Stolen Anything: melpo's charm necklace. but she stole my shoes, so we're even.
Ever been Drunk: uh, yes! let's put it this way. i drink to get drunk. that's the whole point, isn't it? who wrote this?
Ever been called a Tease: i believe melpo called me a tease the other week. not in a sexual way. see her comment on my myspace to put it in context.
Ever been Beaten up: melpo always beats me up. i had her teethmarks down my arm for most of my adolescence.
Ever Shoplifted: i stole a tube of silver glitter from the newsagents once when i was about ten.
How do you want to Die: oh goody! now i can share my detailed death plan with the world. seriously, what kind of question is that? i would like to die happy; the how and the when i'm less sure about.
What do you want to be when you Grow Up: i;m a teacher, but when i grow up even more, i wanna be a writer! or a superhero!
What country would you most like to Visit: umm....it's too hard to pick one. i want to go to France again. I'm in love with Paris.

Favourite Hair Color: not important! (but i tend to be more attracted to guys with fair hair)
Short or Long Hair: not important!
Height: not important!
Weight: not important!
Best Clothing Style: i'm not sure, but nothing too "trendy." guys should be able to know how to dress themselves, but when they have more clothes than you, something's NQR.
Number of Drugs I have taken: nothing illegal. I'm a goody two shoes.
Number of CDs I own: am i supposed to go and count them? pass. quite a few.
Number of Piercings: two. used to be five, but three of my holes closed up.

My Interests

sleeping in, eating, cinema, literature, musical theatre (very camp of me i know), drawing, taking photos, indulging in retail therapy (often)...

The Smiths, Belle and Sebastian, Red Hot Chili Peppers, System of a Down, India Arie, Coldplay, Frankie Valli and the Four Seasons (very cool, don't judge me harshly), The Carpenters, the Mighty, Mighty Bosstones, Stereophonics, The B-52's etc.etc

Movies:

The list is quite lengthy(and is composed of films that vary from stunning cinematic experiences to films that have become my own personal cult classics)but here we go: Picnic at Hanging Rock, 2001: A Space Odyssey, A Bout de Souffle (Breathless), Ghost World, Amelie, Gone with the Wind, Meet me in St. Louis, A Star is Born (judy garland version) Beaches, Psycho, Vertigo, The Crucible, Donnie Darko, The Thorn Birds, Anne of Green Gables, Pride and Prejudice (okay so the latter three are technically mini-series but whatever), Willy Wonka and the Chocolate factory (that's the original one), Bladerunner, Dick, Mermaids, Mary Poppins, Dirty Dancing, The Graduate, Schindler's List, Fame!, Singin' in the Rain, Lost in Translation, Muriel's Wedding, Hairspray, Clueless, La Haine (Hate),etc. etcLeast Favourite films / Films that i despise: Charlies Angels: Full Throttle - perhaps the worst film ever made in my opinion, Crash - the Kronenberg (Cronenberg? Cronenburg?) film, not the recent one (i probably don't really hate this, it's just really disturbing) James Bond films, - stay tuned, i'm sure i will think of more.

Television:

Gilmore Girls, Six Feet Under, Teachers, Prison Break, The Simpsons, The Office (even the american version is good!) Daria

Heroes:

see the "books" section above, take the protagonist from each book, line them up in a row, and there you have my heroes! Except maybe Napoleon the pig from Animal Farm. Or Macbeth. Or...okay, so that tactic doesn't really work. I don't know about heroes then. Judy Garland? (hmm...overdosed in a hotel bathroom....maybe not...)I'll get back to you on this one.
