tallulahgsWhen I put my laptop on just now, it tried to load up Windows and then instead said something about how there was a problem and to restart the computer. I did, and it seems okay now, but I'm rather nervous, especially after what happened to ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
lycoris's - mine is about the same age as hers! *wails*
Okay, I have backups. *tries to breathe more calmly* Backups are good.
Anyway, I'll celebrate it being okay for now with... a pointless meme stolen fromsashwizzled!
1. Name someone with the same birthday as you.
A girl called Pamela, whom I went to nursery school with. Sadly we were never very good friends but I seem to remember were expected to be because we had the same birthday.
2. Where was your first kiss?
Ain't happened yet, baby.
3. Have you ever seriously vandalized someone else's property?
No - the worst I've done has been scratch 'Akira' and 'JSR' onto school desks at exam time. Oh, I did throw my brother's mobile phone onto the ground deliberately and broke the cover. I suppose that counts.
4. Have you ever hit on someone of the opposite sex?
Noooo! I'm way too chicken.
5. Have you ever sung in front of a large number of people?
Yes, several times.
6. What's the first thing you notice about the preferred sex?
Hair and skin. Spots really turn me off.
7. What really turns you on?
.... Hey, look over there! A great big distraction!
8. What do you order at Starbucks?
A smoothie and a chocolate muffin. Coffee is too hot and there are too many different types.
9. What is your biggest mistake?
Doubt I'll know until I'm on my deathbed.
10. Ever hurt yourself on purpose?
Yes, but I haven't done it now for... nine months! W00t!
11. Say something totally random about you
There is a strange damp patch on the floor of my bedroom that's been there for almost a month now.
12. Has anyone ever said you looked like a celebrity?
I have this vague feeling that someone has, but I can't remember who, or what, or when, so I may be making it up.
13. Do you still watch kiddy movies or tv shows?
Yeah, sometimes. I love Don't Eat The Neighbours and don't mind the odd Disney if my sister is watching it.
14. Did you have braces?
Yes, to push my teeth forward. Now I need them to straighten the damn things out, but I couldn't be bothered with the hassle, so I have little fangs ^_^
15. Are you comfortable with your height?
Yes - I am slightly taller than average but not so tall that it's really obvious.
16. What is the most romantic thing someone of the preferred sex has done for you?
Well, assuming my preferred sex is male, the only guy who's been romantic towards me IRL is Duncan, so that would probably be... baking me a cake for my birthday. Say what you like about him, but that was a very kind thing to do and I know he still fancied me then, so it counts as romantic.
17. When do you know it's love?
When you're walking down the aisle - at least, you'd better know ^_^
18. Do you speak any other languages?
I know a bit of French.
19. Have you ever been to a tanning salon?
No.
20. What magazines do you read?
The odd Cosmopolitan or More, but I rarely buy magazines these days.
21. Have you ever ridden in a limo?
No.
22. Has anyone you were really close with passed away?
My gran died last year. She was family so sort of close by definition, IMO anyway.
23. Do you watch MTV?
Can't - no satellite TV. I like watching music video channels in general when I am at the house of someone who can access them, though.
24. What's something that really annoys you?
People who are pretentious.
25. What's something you really like?
Writing fanfiction.
26. Do you like Michael Jackson?
His earlier songs were good, but he's gone a bit off the rails now.
27. Can you dance?
I don't mind dancing, but I wouldn't pretend to be an expert.
28. What's the latest you have ever stayed up?
I think about three a.m, at the Oklahoma after-show party.
29. Have you ever thought that you were honestly going to die?
No, not yet *touch wood*
30. Have you ever been rushed by an ambulance into the emergency room?
No! *touches wood again*

Date: 2005-10-25 08:07 pm (UTC)That's not pointless - these things are the closest I'm ever likely to get to actually knowing you in person!
I'll admit, some of them arouse my curiosity - like, No. 2. Of course I mustn't pry, but since you mention it, it does seem odd...
I just may swipe all this and fill it out myself. What the hey.

Date: 2005-10-26 08:15 am (UTC)As for No.2, well, can I use the excuse that I went to an all-girls school from when I was seven to when I was sixteen? No? Because I know a lot of my classmates were kissed many, many times? Okay. Truthfully, I've just never met a guy I particularly want to kiss.
