Favourite soundtrack:

Superman (not that superman)

Where do you see yourself in 10 years?

Earning money, married, serving God somewhere.

What was your first thought when you woke up this morning?

Praise God that I am loved!

Roller coasters- deadly or exciting?

Boring. Demon was soo boring in Australia's Wonderland.

Pen or pencil?

Pencil, but society insists I use something more permanent. Either way no one can read what I write. It's just the principle of having to breathe in the fumes of liquid paper I suppose which drives people to insist using pens. But what I've found is that my writing gets real neat when I am depressed, e.g. during the HSC, but not during the actual exams though.

Favourite author:

currently reading jerry bridges stuff

3

Future sons' names:

Don't know whether I'll survive that long.

Future daughters' names:

Don't know what on earth God has in store for me, so quit asking.

Are you a good friend?

Look just go away would you?
But seriously, I'm not always a good friend... however I find that I can't cope with things alone, in fact I get really depressed if there's no one to talk to. Hello?

Do you like to drive?

it's okay

Do you sleep with a stuffed animal?

nope, not any more

Thunderstorms- cool or scary?

Scary. Think about it. God could do away with us any time. I like rainbows though.

If you could meet one person in the world, who would it be?

The next person I'm going to meet. Anything else would be trying to go against God's plan, and trying to avoid God's plan is like taking a ship to Tarshish on a fine day. Check out what happened to Jonah.

What is your zodiac sign?

Capricorn. But apparently, according to the new astological calculations (since all the signs move through the centuries), I'm not.

What do you wear to bed?

depends how cold it is.

If you could streak in front of one person's house, whose house would it be?

Somewhere where's there's a lot of hedges and viewing obstructions, I suspect. I'll have to ask myself later.

Guys, if a girl asked you for the shirt on your back, would you give it to her?

Yes. If it was Jacklyn.

If you could have any occupation when you get older, what would it be?

Serving God where He wants me to. Although I might not like it. But I'd have to like it because it would be what He wants. Ain't that a dilemma.

If you could dye your hair one color, what would it be?

Black

If you could have a tattoo, what and where would it be?

On my fingernail.

If you could turn into any animal, real or imaginary, what would it be?

"No body loves me
Every body hates me
I'm goin out to eat some WORMS!
Big, fat, juicy ones
Long, slim, slimy ones
Itsy, Bitsy, Fuzzy, Wuzzy WORMS!!!"

Have you ever been in love?

Yep. And I still am =)

What's on the walls of your room?

Fumpty

Really hate Titanic. Like Matrix but hate star wars

Which one, coke or pepsi?

don't like coke or pepsi actually.

Which kind of milk is your favourite?

fresh full cream

If you were to kill someone, what method would you use?

I'd poison my own cup then offer him his cup. He'd be so suspicious that he'd ask to switch cups...at least that's the plan.

Are you a righty or a lefty, or ambidextrous?

I use the mouse with my left hand, following suggestions by Dane R. and trying it out myself. I would advise that anyone who likes using keyboard shortcuts to do the same, because seriously, it saves so much time and really corrects your posture instead of having to lean to the right all the time. Otherwise I'm right-handed. But I play the piano with two hands.

Do you type with your fingers on the right keys?

Facism doesn't work. Check out Hitler's Germany. Anyway I don't like politics.

When you meet a person of the opposite sex, you first notice their:

I think it used to be: are they Christian, then are they available :-) I think now it's kinda changed... I notice first whether they're Jacklyn, then work it out from there.
