1. What’s your happiest memory? 

I honestly couldn't pick an exact memory. But it'd probably be along the lines of simple quality time with my family, especially my dogs. Christmas time is particularly great for this.

2. If you could have any pet in the world, what would it be?

I'll have to be boring here and say my dog. I just love him to bits.

3. If you could pick anyone to be your best friend, who would it be and why? (pick ONE fictional and ONE non-fictional) 

Ooh interesting question.

Fictional: I'm going to say George Kirrin (of the famous five). There's endlessly more exciting choices to be sure, but I grew up reading the books and related so fiercely to her character as a child. I always wished I could meet her as I felt we'd understand each other in a way our friends/families didn't.

Non-fictional: I don't actually have a best friend as I prefer group friendships as opposed to intense one-on-one friendships (I wouldn't make a very good best friend I don't think). If I had to pick though, I'd chose my oldest friend I've known since year 7. On paper we look to have very little in common and don't see each other very much, and yet when we do, we can talk for hours with ease. That's rare for me and so very special.

 4. In which fictional universe would you want to live in?

Again the possibilities! I'd probably give a different answer every time I was asked this, but at the moment I'll say Star Trek TOS. There's so much doom and gloom about the future these days; it'd be nice to live where there's hope, where humans do grow, learn and better themselves. (That said, I think I'd make a good hobbit).

5. Which hogwart’s house are you in and why?  (or which one do you think you would be in)

I'm a Hufflepuff I'd say. I used to think I'd be in Ravenclaw as I always did fairly well academically. But then I finally understood that an important part of the house allocations is the traits you value rather than what you possess. And I care far more about being honest/loyal/fair than I do about being intelligent.

6. What’s the craziest thing you’ve done?

The fact that nothing immediately springs to mind probably answers this question for itself. I'm afraid I'm a fairly boring and rule abiding person. Hmmm, I did used to sneak chemicals and supplies out of the chemistry building during the third year of my degree? To clarify, it was only because my group's project was being carried out in a nearby building rather than in the main lab. So it wasn't that we weren't supposed to use the supplies, just that we probably shouldn't have been walking down the street carrying flasks of solvent/chemical mixtures.    

7. What are the 3 things on your bucket list?

I've never thought about it to be honest. Call it the invincibility of youth.

I guess I'd like to venture further abroad somewhere (Say Canada/America/New Zealand maybe?)

I'd like to try snowboarding as terrible at it as I'll be.

And I'd love to learn to play an instrument, the piano in particular.

I just came up with these three right now so I guess I just officially started my bucket list?

8. What’s your favourite song at the moment?

I've had 'Shattered' by Trading Yesterday in my head for a large chunk of today. It's entirely the fault of heartbreaking shipping fanvids.

9. Favourite song to dance to? 

The Cha Cha Slide. I'm useless at improvising any form of dance so I require clear instructions throughout.

10. What skill do you want to pick up or wish you knew?

I have endless admiration (and envy) for anyone who fluently speaks two or more languages. I can barely manage my mother tongue half the time and I dropped High School French the first chance I got.

11. List 3 languages you want to learn

Haha, I didn't see this until I finished my previous answer. How appropriate.

Let's see: Sign Language (Because how great would that be?), German (Based off a few Tumblr posts I've seen it seems a fun language) and Portuguese (Purely because my favourite Tumblr friend lives in Portugal).

My Questions:

1. If you could pick just one of your non-canon OTPs to become indisputably, irrevocably canon, at the cost of the remaining ships forever remaining non-official, which would you pick?

2. Which book would you most like to see made into a movie? (Or remade if there's an existing adaptation you don't like)

3. If you could re-watch one of your favourite childhood TV shows from the beginning, which would it be?

4. Which abandoned WIP fanfic would you most desperately like to see finished?

5. What was your first major fandom? (Pre or post joining Tumblr)

6. When you line up all your favourite characters from various different series is there a common factor(s)? If so, what is it?

7. Which wild animal would you most love to spend time observing in it's natural habitat (assuming there was no risk or being attacked or scaring them off).

8. Your dream superpower?

9. If your house was on fire and you only had time to save one possession (don't worry your family, human or otherwise are already safe and sound), what would you grab?

10. If you could relive one year of your life, which age would you chose?

11. And finally, what's the nerdiest/geekiest joke you can think of?
