questions for me(me)


I got tagged in a question-answering meme by Sunny from Idyll Toast!  Who needs Formspring! Hehe!

1. If you have pets, do you see them as merely animals, or are they members of your family?
They're family :) I've always had pets since I was little. Roborovski hamsters, lop-ear Angora rabbits, Shih Tzus, fishies, even a pair of black/white chicks my neighbour happened to have snagged from his trip home to the village. I daresay I have cried when each of them passed away.  

2. If you can have a dream to come true, what would it be?
A non-existential differentiation of skin and race and religion, no war, and no crimes. They are trivial compared to what Mother Nature has against us these days. We don't have to do this to ourselves.

3. What is the one thing most hated by you?
Discrimination. I come from a country riddled with it.

4. What would you do with a billion dollars?
Easy! I'd give it away. Is this a trick question? 

5. What helps to pull you out of a bad mood?
Talking to bff Amir. And if he's not available or is tired of the silly noises I make when I'm frumpy, then I take my camera out! ;)

6. Which is more blessed, loving someone or being loved by someone?
Having the opportunity to love someone else :)  I get excited giving surprises and little gifts to my love ones. Although being loved in return is always a bonus :)

7. What is your bedtime routine? 
I am a granny. I get grouchy about past 10 pm and if I don't sleep by 2 am then its pretty much an all nighter from then. 

8. If you are currently in a relationship, how did you meet your partner?
A random twist of fate. And fate is still twisting between us...

9. If you could watch a creative person in the act of the creative process, who would it be?
Audrey Kawasaki, DEFINITELY! I have only recently discovered her work and it was love at first sight!

10. What kinds of books do you read?
Right now? Nil. I traded paper for the internet (which is bad, I know). It still doesn't stop me from collecting books though.

11. Where do you see yourself in ten years time?
Either I'll be ripping my hair out at a private Science research institute or chasing little monsters around. I'm still trying to decide which is the lesser evil.

12. What’s your fear?
Not living life to the fullest. That, and losing my grandparents. They are the sweetest old couple ever

13. Would you give up all junk food for the rest of your life for the opportunity to visit outer space?
Uh-huh. So would (with fingers crossed behind my back!).

14. Would you rather be single and rich or married, but poor?
Stop asking me things I ask myself all the time! Honestly, I still don't know. I wouldn't mind being single and poor, as long as I'm happy and healthy?

15. What’s the first thing you do when you wake up?
Check my email...haha.

16. If you could change one thing about your spouse/partner what would it be?
His ability to read my mind. Its not fair that I keep losing at rock, paper, scissors like that.

17. If you could pick a new name for yourself, what would it be?
Zara-Rihanna Ling. It means 'happy-flower' with a ring-a-ling-ling at the end of it! Haha!

18. Would you forgive and forget no matter how horrible a thing that special someone has done?
Very most likely to forgive because I believe people change. The ability to forget depends. I would prefer to, but sometimes your subconscious isn't something you can control.

19. If you could only eat one thing for the next 6 months, what would it be?
Nutella. Downright swear I would stomach that thing anytime! :D
