11. Is the bottle half-full or half-empty? I’d say there's space to pour some more in it. XD
12. Would you keep a secret from me if you thought it was in my best interest? Certainly, though I‘d probably doubt the decision ever after.
13. What is your favourite memory of us? Lol, lately our Berserk debate that’s gone way astray.
14. What is your favourite guilty pleasure? High quality oolong tea which I drink in huge amounts.
15. Tell me one odd/interesting fact about you: I can plough with a pair of heavy horses. Also, when I was 5 I liked to sort of sing along Zappa’s „Stick It Out“. My parents let me, because they couldn’t understand a word of what the lyrics actually were about. XDDD
16. You can have three wishes (for yourself, so forget all the 'world peace etc' malarkey) - what are they? Just one wish. To be always able to continue overcoming myself in whatever I do.

20. Do you think I'm a good person? Of course.

22. Describe your accent. Very formal and accurate Czech pronunciation, with occasional archaism when it’s economical (I bet the result sounds fairly weird XD). I can speak three dialects, too.

24. What do you wear to sleep? Least clothes possible.
25. Trousers or skirts? Both, skirt mostly for formal occasions.

27. If I only had one day to live, what would we do together? Spend it at Chuzenji lake or wandering Nord-Osterdalen in Norway, that would be nice.
28. Will you repost this so I can fill it out for you? Already done.

Yeah, let's go to Norway too:)

Itsuka dareka wo aishita toki

Translation? That's annoying me. I feel I know every word but it's not coming out to anything. Much like Latin! Is it something like "The time when I loved someone"?

What is an Ignostic Buddhist?

Sure, we have to go to Norway! XDDD

Itsuka dareka wo aishita toki is translated as "someday when you love someone".

Buddhism (rather, Tibetan Vajrayana), is the system I feel comfortable with and in which I got some deeper insight and education, the ignostic bit in it reflects my persistent tendency towards redifining world.^^

Thanks for the translation! I'd enjoy learning more about your belief system. Can you recommend a text (in English)?

Well, the catch with vajrayána is that the teaching is based more on personal experience and initiations, so the knowledge you can get from books is limited. It can be inspiring, though.

I'll try to find some reading for you, but have patience with me. At the moment, RL is really demanding all I have. T_T

I think I never replied to this! Thanks so much for the translation and the explanation. I approve of redefining the world:)
