| 3+ months later, has anything changed? (First done on 10 December 2004)
1. What is the geekiest part of your music collection?
Hmm... I listen to anything/everything. Not really a music geek... still not a music geek.
2. What do you eat when you raid the fridge late at night?
Usually don't eat after dinner. If I do get something, it would be a hot drink. been eating a lot of chocolate eggs (it's all Easter's fault!)
3. What is your secret guaranteed weeping movie?
Butterfly Lovers - feat. Nicky Wu and Charlie Yeung The latest sobfest was Million Dollar Baby, truly profoundly sad. Oh, and The Notebook too.
4. If you could have plastic surgery, what would you have done?
No one is coming anywhere near me with a scapel. Still happily and contentedly surgery-free.
5. Do you have a completely irrational fear?
People leaving me. yup... still that.
6. What is the little physical habit that gives away your insecure moments?
Picking at the skin around the fingernails or folding pieces of paper (if I'm holding one). talking more and talking louder, about stupid little things.
7. Are you a pyromaniac?
Nope. I did have dreams of becoming a pyrotechnician for big blockbuster action films at one point though. no action there.
8. Do you have too many love interests?
I think maybe I fall in love much too easily. i'm seeing someone, but he's making me think of someone else. ah damn. i like to think of myself as a one-man woman, but i don't think i've found one man i really want to devote myself to yet. who is worthy...
9. Do you know anyone famous?
One of my friends is the niece of Michelle Yeoh apparently... does that count? let's see. don't think i've gotten to know any famous people in the past 3 months.
10. Describe your bed
Sofa bed from IKEA, but I prefer sleeping on the floor - tatami mat style. it's still the sofa bed.
11. Are you spontaneous or planned?
Depends on my mood and what the activity is... same old, same old.
12. Who would play you in a movie?
Let's see... can't think of anyone at the moment. someone quirky and funny and yet oddly serious.
13. Do you know how to play poker?
Yeah, of course. i've not played in a while. hm.
14. What do you carry with you at all times?
My heart on my sleeve. too much on my mind.
15. What do you miss most about being a kid?
Being ignorantly happy. innocence (in myself and others).
16. Are you happy with your given name?
Part of it, yes. it's starting to grow on me, all of it.
17. How much money would it take to get you to give up the internet for 1 year?
At least as much as my current annual salary, I need it for work. i'm still too cheap to pay for broadband. hah.
18. What color is your bedroom?
White. Because I'm too poor to get it repainted something else. just realised it is an off-white sort of grey-brown tint.
19. What was the last song you were listening to?
Currently I have some Mandarin pop song playing, not sure what the title is. don't know, think it was something by jack johnson.
20. Have you ever been in a play?
Lots of times when I was in primary school, a couple of times in secondary school. ah those were the days.
21. Have you ever been in love?
Yes. not lately, i don't think. can't really tell anymore. confusion seems to be the ruling emotion of late.
22. Do you talk a lot?
Depends on who I'm talking to and what I'm talking about. i've been going to and fro between extremes i think.
23. Do you like yourself and believe in yourself?
Sometimes. haven't been indulging in much self-loathing lately. good sign?
24. Do transient, homeless, or starving people sometimes annoy you?
No, why would they? i wish i had the nerve/time/money/generosity of heart to go and feed the starving and homeless. i'm just too bloody self-absorbed and preoccupied with my own little existence.
25. Do you consider yourself to be a nice person?
I hope I am; I try to be. generally nice, with streaks of rebelliousness, rage and insensitivity.
26. Do you spend more time with your girlfriend/boyfriend or your friends?
Not sure, but I guess I would. at the moment i'm spending most of my time with myself. if not, then with family (mostly my sister). friends and boyfriend seem to occupy equal importance...
27. What is your ideal marriage location?
Basketball stadium, baseball stadium or the beach. i'm beginning to wonder if i'll ever get married at all... haha... the appeal seems to be waning.

99% of the time I drink only water.

No Hummers. No old-uncle Mercedes cars.
48. What kind of books do you like to read?
