Your Middle Name: I don't have one, unfortunately. My parents only gave me the one name.
Is this a Dutch thing or just your parents thing?

Favourite Film: I have many favourites. One I'll never stop loving is 'American Beauty.'
Hmm... what do you love about it? I found it really depressing.

Favourite Song or Album: Right now 'Walking on the Sun' by Smash Mouth.
Oh, that's a great song. I have really good memories of that one.

What is your favourite guilty pleasure? Watching schmoopy chick flicks and reading naughty slash fic.
Schmoopy? Schmoopy. I like that one, and I can definitely get behind reading slash fic. ^_~

Tell me one odd/interesting fact about you: I'm a terrible hoarder. It's not as bad as those people on tv, but I just can't throw anything out.
But, like, you can throw your trash out, right? And you don't have little trails through the house that allow you to navigate?

You can have three wishes (for yourself) 1) To have a place of my own, 2) to have a dog, 3) to meet a nice guy.
Aww, those are very reasonable wishes. I hope they all come true.

Which country is your spiritual home? New Zealand and Greece.
Why so?

Describe your accent: Pretty standard Dutch, but I do my best not to sound *too* Dutch.
Why would you not want to sound too Dutch? And is this abroad or in The Netherlands?

If you could change anything about me, would you? Nope, I think you're fine the way you are.
Thank you. ^_^

1. No, most people have a middle name, but my parents thought one was enough, I guess. Which is totally unfair, because my sister has 3 names! ;)

2. Well, it's mostly because I love Kevin Spacey, and his acting in this film is phenomenal, but the whole film is fantastic. I understand why you think it's depressing, but there's also a lot of humour in it.

3. I'd probably name a different song right now. It changes all the time.

4. "Schmoopy" is an official fan fiction term. Seriously! It means 'fluffy, with lots of romance and cuddling,' etc. Sometimes people talk bout "schmoop." :)

5. I can still walk through (most of) my room, though it's VERY full, and I do throw everything that's perishable out, of course, but I keep loads of stuff that other people throw out. Things that don't work anymore, or clothes that don't fit anymore, or are all worn. I just can't part with them. It's a problem. *g*

6. I hope they will come true as well. Fingers crossed.

7. I spent 3 weeks in New Zealand last winter and it completely stole my heart. It's such a beautiful, remarkable country. I've been to Greece many times, and I just love it. When I go there it feels like coming home.

8. I meant when I speak English. English with a thick Dutch accent sounds horrible. When I speak Dutch I have a regular Dutch accent, I guess, though local people are usually able to hear where I come from.

9. You're welcome!
