What I’ve been asked:

What hair colour would you most like to have? - 

Why are you on tumblr? - A few of my friends had it, and I wondered what I was missing out on. Turns out I was missing out on life.

Ever had a teacher crush? - No. I go to an all-girls school, so any male teacher becomes the object of raging hormones but, alas, I am wise enough to know that just because it has bollocks (testicles for you Americans), doesn't mean it's attractive.

Do you have a particular genre of dance that you’d like to try/be professionally taught to do? - I am truly inept at dancing. Probably worse than Matt Smith. But I'd love to try a slow ballroom dance like *tries to think of one* yeh, that one.

Can you read music? - I can. I play four instruments with two past grade 8, so yeah, I guess I can read music.

Do you think that tumblr’s background colour should be customisable, or is it good to have everyone using the same? - It's perfect just the way it is.

What would be your ideal way for you to make a living? - I would absolutely love to have Wade Davis' job. He's the Explorer-in-Residence at National Geographic. He gets paid to travel the world and interact with indigenous tribes and cultures. Awesome, right?

Can you quote any Shakespeare? (without cheating by looking it up for the sake of impressing people :P) - A bit too many for my liking. Doing English Lit at A2 level where you have to learn the quotes off-by-heart kind of drums it into you. My favourites though are 'Come, be a man. Drown thyself? Drown cats and blind puppies!' (Othello) and various Macbeth ones like 'False face must hide what the false heart doth know', 'who would have known that the old man would have had so much blood in him' and 'Sleep no more! Macbeth does murder sleep, the innocent sleep, Sleep that knits up the ravell'd sleeve of care' Nintendo, Sony or Microsoft? (I’m just talking about the games consoles here) - I don't play video games really, so I'm going to say Microsoft because of reasons

What’s your favourite kind of sweet/chocolate? - Can't get enough of Tesco own-brand milk chocolate. Food of the gods, and better than Green & Blacks.

In the whole of time and space, fiction and non-fiction, who would you most like to meet? - Oh god this is a tricky one. I'm going to be really erudite and boring, as I'd love to meet our human ancestors and see what they were like, like the Neanderthals, Homo erectus etc. Either that or Siddarttha Gotama (THE Buddha). Or Aziraphrale.

My questions:

What's your opinion of Richard Dawkins?

Cats or Dogs?

Most listened-to band/album on your generic music device?

Will you vote in the next general election?

Trousers or skirts/dresses?

Favourite fictional character?

What's more important - the past or the future?

If you had a spirit animal/daemon, what would it be?

Dream lifestyle or livelihood?

What's the point of Tumblr?
