Woo hoo!

I was going through my old emails while drinking scandalous amounts of wine trying to sort out what to keep and what to delete and all that good stuff and I found this lovely quiz thingy and as most of you know I'm addicted to the quiz thingys so I decided to post it. Woo hoo!


1: Grab the book nearest to you, turn to page 18, find line 4. Write down what it says:
"Girl, Interrupted, 1999. -Susanna Kaysen. (what can I say, it's actually a book or erotic short stories but it just wasn't a spicy page).

2: Stretch your left arm out as far as you can. What do you touch first? Window. This really isn't so exciting so far. Not even the wine can help me now.

3: What is the last thing you watched on TV?: Roswell. I'm a sucker for teen angst. Plus that Max guy takes off his shirt sometimes and it's lovely. I didn't know anyone who looked like that when I was in high school. Unless you were drunk. And squinted alot. I know, I tried.

4: WITHOUT LOOKING, guess what the time is: 2:30 am?

5: Now look at the clock, what is the actual time?: 1:57 am. I'm usually so good at the time guessing!! I blame the wine! It was the wine dammit!

6: With the exception of the computer, what can you hear?: Morcheeba, fridge humming (god I hate that sound - I always feel all cracked out and trailer park when I here it. What's that all about?), traffic (yes, at 2am there is traffic - I live in Tokyo), and the clock ticking. Not my biological clock either. My alarm clock. This is another sound that I despise. Grrr.

7: When did you last step outside? I took doglet for a walk around midnight. She likes the walking and if I take her out walking close to when I go to bed then she makes with the sleeping too and I like that!

Doing? Oh. I jumped the gun a little on that one. Can I blame the wine again?

8: Before you came to this website, what did you look at?: My email. I'm addicted. I check my email about a million times a day.

9: What are you wearing?: Really big, oversized hoodie Kohsuke's friend Kazuki gave me. Comfy.

10: Did you dream last night? Probably. I always dream but I don't remember much unless you ask me right away.

11: When did you last laugh? Maybe an hour ago. Lilo likes to freak out and when she does it involves flattening her ears, tucking her tail under her bum and racing laps around our tiny apartment. It's cracks me up every time.

12: What is on the walls of the room you are in? Bad textured japanese wallpaper (a staple here in Japan), pictures of friends and family, bulletin board with heaps of crazy stuff tacked to it, some shelves (cool 70s style square type shelves - I am so hip), a Vines poster (framed because I'm a grown-up now), wedding photo, photo my friend Shae gave me for my birthday (very cool even though she is not - tee hee - kidding!), Emily the Strange calendar and a poster for kids to help them learn their Hiragana (because maybe I'm not so grown up after all).

16: If you became a multi-millionaire overnight, what would you buy first?: Today I'm thinking plane tickets to Moscow for me and some of my friends. Although maybe somewhere warmer would be better considering the season. No, I've always had this secret vision of myself wearing crazy furs (I know, I know, furs are bad but it's just a vision for chrissakes!) riding in a horse drawn carriage in some fabulous russian city with the fancy onion shaped domes in the background sipping some lovely red russian wine in the middle of winter with a light snow falling. I am such a dork. I should never be allowed to watch tv or movies ever again.


17: Tell me something about you that I don't know: I secretly long to be very, very stupid and very, very shockingly beautiful. So beautiful it makes your teeth hurt. Ridiculously good looking you might say (if you're a total dork and you've seen Zoolander about a hundred too many times).
