well, that wasted an hour.

Mar 09, 2010 21:30

So the Backstreet Boys come to my town, and suddenly I'm posting like Posty McPosterson. Well done, Boys.

1. What curse word do you use the most?
FUUUUUUUUUCK. And I don't know how it is wherever you guys live, but my own damn mother will disown me if she knew I swore this much. For real. Once I said it in front of her and she was all "HOW DARE YOU USE THAT WORD HAVEN'T I BROUGHT YOU UP PROPERLY YOU'RE A DISGRACE." Whenever I throw in a 'bloody' somewhere (another one I love!), she gives me a look and says "Watch your language." WHAT BLOODY LANGUAGE, MOTHER? It's the least offensive swearword in my vocabulary!

2. Do you own an iPod?
Let's get this straight. I'm really anti-Apple and anti-Mac. Unfortunately the iPod honestly seems like the mp3 player out there for my needs -- I love bringing my entire library out with me in case I get a random urge to listen to something obscure -- so when my trusty Creative Zen finally died a horrible death (I dropped it), I bought an iPod classic last year. And I am hoping to upgrade to an iPhone soon because I seriously need some of those apps when I'm out and don't have a laptop handy.

3. What person on your flist do you talk to the most?
Probably msktrnanny and call_me_loca. ETA: And my bb _titch!

4. What time is your alarm clock set to?
No time. *sigh* Still looking for a job. Also since I was little I've had the curse of waking up way earlier than I need to and I always wake up before my alarm. Camp Sparklers will notice that I usually wake up pretty early. It's just my damned body clock. My body will not physically allow me to sleep past 9 or 10am, so a sleep in for me is usually like, 9.30.

5. Do you still remember the first person you kissed?
Yep.

6. Do you remember where you were on 9/11/01?
I was studying for an exam at home, and it was at night. My mother quickly turned on the TV when she got a text message and I abandoned my notes to gawk at the TV.

7. Would you rather take the picture or be in the picture?
Always always taking the picture. I really fucking hate having my picture taken UNLESS it's for a good reason (ie I won't see this person/group of people again for a very long time). And I hate taking pictures of myself, ugh. Obviously, when there is a Backstreet Boy or two in it, the previous sentences are null and void -- also because some of the pictures where I look the best happen to have AJ standing next to me. *g*

8. What was the last movie you watched?
Alice in Wonderland in 3D last Sunday. That said, I hardly ever go to the movies. Before Alice the last movie I watched was Coraline in 3D, and that was because it was a work thing and it was free! Honestly though, I hate cinemas. Haaaaate. If I do watch movies there it's because I'm really bored or I really want to watch the movie asap.

9. Do any of your friends have children?
Uhhh. If you're talking about the ones here, not any that I can think of. Although everyone is getting married at a worryingly rapid rate and I'm feeling uber left out.

10. Has anyone ever called you lazy?
Duh. Doesn't everyone's mom call them lazy all the time, even though you've already done everything she's expected you to do?

11. Do you ever take medication to help you fall asleep?
I had a bad period of insomnia while I was in the UK. I ended up taking valerian tablets, but I'm not too sure if they helped. Honestly though, my mind's just active all the time so it's uncommon for me to like, hit the bed and fall asleep within 20 minutes.

12. What cd is currently in your cd player?
Haven't owned a CD player in YEARS. Currently though I'm rocking This Is Us by Backstreet Boys (mmmmm concert), Unbreakable by the same (how did I forget how awesome it was?) and Have It All by AJ McLean <3333333. Can you tell I'm heavily mono-fannish?

13. Do you prefer regular or chocolate milk?
Uh. Don't actually like milk that much. When I do it's skim milk, and I honestly don't get why some people think having/not having whole milk is a life or death thing.

14. Has anyone told you a secret this week?
Nope.

15. When was the last time you had Starbucks?
Uh. Last week I think. Though I don't usually get fraps, I get their iced tea. It's a habit I formed from when I was in school. Between the ages of 16-18 I camped out at Starbucks after school so that I could study there. No, really. Studying in a coffee house = ABSOLUTE HEAVEN to me. Even when I was back home during summer in uni I did all my novel reading and annotating in Starbucks and Coffee Bean. So anyway, the cheapest venti drink they had was their iced tea, and I used to just get a venti iced tea to last me for at least 4 hours so I could hang out there plugged into my discman/mp3 player and study.

16. Can you whistle?
Yes, and pretty damn well, thank you. :) When my friends and I play Cranium I'm always the one that ends up humming/whistling the tune because I usually know the song and can whistle well.

17. What is the first thing you notice about the opposite sex?
Uhhh. I want to say eyes? Though it might be lips.

18. What are you looking forward to?
CAMP SPARKLE, BABY! Other than that, passing my driving test (IT'S TOMORROW OMG PLEASE LET ME PASS) and getting a job soon, because this shit just ain't funny no more.

19. Did you watch cartoons as a child?
Duuuuuh. I think I can map out my entire growing up by the cartoons I watched. Among them include Tom and Jerry, Denver the Last Dinosaur, Flintstones, Jetsons, Batman (both old and new school), Spiderman, X-Men. :D

20. Do you own any band t-shirts?
Yes yes YES. I have a problem with merchandise. As in, I always buy merch at concerts, usually the tourbook if there's one, and then a tshirt. It's a ritual thing for me. It's like how Justin Timberlake must dunk his cereal in his milk for a certain period of time every morning. People have mentioned that I need a merchandise intervention, which, HA. I think I'm cured though, because I didn't buy a BSB tshirt at the show a week and a half ago. They were just too ugly this time. :(

Other than that, I have like, 3 BSB shirts (including the ugly tat shirt of DOOM), 1 AJ McLean shirt (YES THEY EXIST), 1 Bon Jovi, 1 Justin Timberlake, and like, 4 or 5 Rufus Wainwright shirts. I AM A TSHIRT FIEND.

21. What will you be doing in one hour?
Uh. Still tooling about online, most likely. Or watching the latest TAR or House.

22. Is anyone in love with you?
If there is, please tell me. I really would like to know.

23. What was the last song you heard?
Treat Me Right. <33333333333333 MY LETTERBOYS

24. When was the last time you cried?
Um. This is lame, but during the BSB show a week and a half ago when they started singing Show Me The Meaning. My dog had just died two nights before and I spent most of Friday night and Saturday crying, so.

25. Are you on a desktop computer or a laptop?
Laptop.

26. Are you currently wanting any piercings or tattoos?
YES. I totally want at least three piercings in each ear, and possibly a tat to reward myself when I've finally lost all the weight I want. BUT. My mother has actually said she'd disown me if I got more than one piercing in each year. I think my mother (and father) is a conservative (hypocritical) Republican born in the 60s. For real.

27. What's the weather like?
REALLY FUCKING BLAZING. We're going through a really bad heatwave at the moment (95* and upppp), with high humidity and NO RAIN. And I really hate heat, and I sweat at the drop of a hat if you take away the fan/air con that's pointed at me. I sweat even in the UK winter, okay. Seriously y'all, I'll take your freezing your asses and shovelling snow off your car anyday. ANYDAY. I'D HONESTLY RATHER BE FREEZING THAN IN THIS FUCKING HELLHOLE OF TROPICAL WEATHER. I'd gladly exchange places with you temperate-land living people any day.

28. Would you ever date a girl/guy covered in tattoos?
Okay, meme. Why are you asking me this when out of the 193 icons I currently have, 88 of them are of or feature AJ "Tattoos" McLean in all his tatted glory? Not that I'd ever date someone solely because of their tattoos, but honestly, I think AJ's spoiled me for life. No matter how ugly the tat, if the inkwork is good, it gets my attention. If they're ugly as sin though, that's another thing.

29. What did you do before this?
Dinner with the fam at home, and watching the latest episode of a trashy Korean soap opera with them after that.

30. When is the last time you slept on the floor?
Can't remember, but I do it a lot more often than you think. At home I share a room with my sister and my grandmother, who sleeps on the floor. Plus my sister's in uni and can only study when she's on the bed we share. So if her stuff is all over the bed and I want a nap, I usually just take the mattress out and sleep on the floor.

31. How many hours of sleep do you need to function?
Five, I think. Less than that and I'd probably keel over the first chance I get.

32. Do you eat breakfast daily?
Yes, but to be honest I'd skip it if I didn't have to take medication after it.

33. Are your days fast-paced?
Sometimes. Like, Backstreet Sunday a week and a half ago was INSANE.

34. What did you do last night?
Uh. Tooled around on the internet a lot. And read nopseud's London!Letterboys stories.

35. Do you use sarcasm?
I never use sarcasm. Ever. *rolls eyes*

36. How old will you be turning on your next birthday?
25. Quarter-life crisis activate!

37. Are you picky about spelling and grammar?
VERY.

38. Have you ever been to Six Flags?
Nope.

39. Do you get along better with the same sex or the opposite sex?
Opposite. I'm a lifelong victim of the "one of the guys" syndrome, where because I'm fat and like more boy things than girl things, I'm considered either asexual or one of the guys, which immediately rules me out as dating material. Which is stupid, because I'm usually the one giving my guy friends dating advice, which they subsequently ignore and do whatever the hell they wanted to anyway.

40. Do you like mustard?
Not really?

41. Do you sleep on your side?
Yes. It's the only way I can sleep, really. It fucks up my back if I'm on my stomach, and it gives me a fucker of a headache if I sleep on my back.

42. Do you watch the news?
Yes. My parents are bankers, so as a kid I grew up watching my parents get ready for the day while they had the morning news on so they could check out stock prices first thing in the morning. I like watching the news.

43. How did you get one of your scars?
Broke my right ring finger when the bus I was on jerked and my hand hit the metal pole. The finger had a ring on it which I immediately pulled off when I started feeling pain. Ended up having two operations on it, and have a metal implant and 4 screws in it now. The scar on it is about half the length of my finger.

44. Who was the last person to make you mad?
Probably my mother. She and I really don't see eye to eye on most things.

45. Do you like anybody?
Doesn't everyone?

46. What is the last thing you purchased?
Bubble tea. ♥

47. What side of the heart do you draw first?
Left.

48. Can you dive without plugging your nose?49. What color is your razor?
I don't own one. Don't look at me like that! Thanks to genetics any body hair I have hardly grows

50. What is your blood-type?
Hmm. Not gonna say everything, but there's a B in it.

51. Who would you want to be tied to for 24 hours?
AJ MCLEAN. Because right now I miss that idiot's face like you wouldn't believe.

52. What is a rumor someone has spread about you?
Uh, not sure?

53. How do you feel about carrots?
I love carrots, especially when they're roasted slowly and come out all sweet and roasty. Mmmmmmm.

54. How many chairs at your dining room table?
6 chairs and 1 stool.

55. Which is the best Spice Girl?
I don't think I've ever had a favourite Spice Girl. Now though, possibly Mel C, because she kicks ass.

56. Do you know what time it is?
9.16pm

57. Do you know all the words to the Fresh Prince Theme Song?
Nuh uh.

58. What would you do if you were stuck in an elevator?
Panic, sweat a lot, and sit down. I'm claustrophobic enough to start getting paranoid about never getting out of small spaces.

59. What's your favorite kind of gum?
I live in the Land of ZOMG NO GUM ALLOWED. But I do like bubblegum a lot. I blow bubbles even when I have normal chewing gum.

60. T or F: All's fair in love and war?
False.

61. Do you have a crush on anyone?
Probably still have some lingering crushes on some friends I've been rejected by before. Celebrities though? HELL YEAH.

62. Do you know how to use some words correctly, but not know the meaning?
More phrases than words, really.

63. Do you like to sleep?

Yes!

64. Do you know which US states don't use Daylight Savings Time?
Nope. Until I moved to the UK, daylight savings was a completely foreign concept to me. I live at the Equator! We have 12 hours of daylight and 12 hours of night (give or take a couple of minutes depending on seasonal variations) all year long!

65. Do you know the song Total Eclipse of the Heart?
Yes!

66. Do you want a bright yellow ‘06 mustang?
Only if I can sell it off for money.

67. What's something you've always wanted?
A room of my own. Until university I never had a room to myself. :( :( :(

68. Do you have hairy LEGS?
Uh. Depends on what you mean by hairy. By Asian standards, possibly. By normal standards, no. And I've never shaved them.

69. Would you rather swim in the ocean or a lake?
I hate swimming. Can I just take pictures of the lake instead?

70. Do you wear a lot of black?
ALL THE TIME. If I am not wearing black I will feel uncomfortable.

71. Describe your hair:
Uh. Short, chin-length, layered, with red highlights that are fading and growing out. It's a little more coppery at the moment, which is what I like.

72. Do you have Entomophobia?
Not really.

73. Are you an adult?
Dunno?

74. Where is/are your best friend(s)?
The UK, and Singapore.

75. Do you have a tan?
A bit, but I got paler than usual in the UK. Again, tropical country guys, we get way too much sun for our good. I used to be a lot more tan when I went to school and had to walk a long way to the bus stop to get home.

76. Are you a television addict?
Nope. When I was 16 I had the O Levels (aka exams that are a big freaking deal) and put myself through cold turkey while I was studying for them. I never really regained the habit of watching TV everyday. I do download a lot of shows, but I watch them on my laptop with no commercial breaks, which is totally not TV. Honestly, I can't get into many dramas. I lose interest way too easily.

77. Do you enjoy spending time with your mother?
Depends on whether she's being an ass or not.

78. Are you a sugar freak?
No. I'm a salty food person.

79. Do you like orange juice?
I would drink it ALL DAY LONG if I could. Sadly, my sugar and gastric issues prevent me from doing so.

80. What astrological sign are you?
Virgo. And sometimes very obviously so.
