In answer to namyomi's questions:

1. What, in your opinion, should be invented to make life easier for you?

ermmmmmmmmm

some sort of organiser thing that will directly communicate with my brain and know everything I need to do and can automatically make the perfect schedule and make me stick to it

or a device I can install in my brain that lets me organise my thoughts and memories and will allow me to access any retained information at any point in time (useful for exams lol)

2. Supposing that you can only choose one song, which Kpop song would you first recommend to a non-Kpop fan?

this is hard. I think VIXX are a great group to get people into k-pop because they're fairly new and easy to get into (you can easily marathon their shows eheh) so I would probably show them hyde (x) or On and On (x)

I'm totally not biased   it's true tho   I got two of my friends into kpop because of VIXX muahaha

3. Do you have any aspiring visions for the world for it to become a better place? If so, what? If not, are there areas of improvement in the world?

I think the world would be a better place if everyone was a lot more tolerant and less judgemental. We're all entitled to our own opinions and beliefs and you shouldn't scoff at others' or try shoving your own down their throats. 

4. Which Kpop idol possesses a voice that you would like to own? (relating to the sound of his/her voice and not singing skills)

you should know that I really love deep voices

and I would really like to have a deep voice

which might be weird bc I'm a girl

so based on that I'd say Taehyung's (V of BTS) but I love the tone of Jaehwan's (Ken of VIXX) and Kyungsoo's (D.O of EXO) voices so idk

5. Out of these three qualities, which do you feel is the most important and why? Choose one of these: honesty, perseverance, courtesy.

Honesty. It's all very well and good to persevere and be courteous, but if you're a big fat liar I don't see how that's going to really get you anywhere (fairly).

6. Do you prefer fanfiction or fictional novels? Name your favourite fanfiction and/or novel.

I prefer novels because they tend to have better plots, better writing, better character development and be less clichéd and can hold my attention for longer. (That's not to say that all novels are better than fanfics. Some fanfics are amazing and some novels are terrible so.)

7. Are you interested about finding out about other countries’ cultures and customs? If so, which country are you the most interested in?

I am, yes. I would love to find out more about every country's culture but at the moment I would say I'm most interested in East Asian countries, like Japan and South Korea.

8. Within all of your biases/bias groups, which is/are the most frequently used surname(s), and which is/are the least?

I think Kim is the most common, followed by Lee and then Bang, Min, and Jeon are quite uncommon. 

9. What is the most pressurizing problem you have right now? 

Well, it's not quite a 'problem' but I have a French oral and Chemistry mock exam and they are stressing me out.

10. Create an acrostic poem with your bias’s name, using any theme.

I wish I could do it in Korean but I can't so

L - Like honey being poured into your ear

E - Everything about his voice drives me insane

E - Every note gives me feels

J - Just asdfghjkl

A - Anytime I feel down

E - Emptiness can be filled with his soothing voice

H - Hushing the worries that stress me out

W - Whenever they hold a concert

A - All the fan accounts make me cry ;;

N -  Never will I have the opportunity to meet them, sigh

Idek man this sucks I'm sorry

11. If you had the chance to undo something you once did in the past, what would you choose to undo? 

The thing with regrets is I regret things at the time, but I never remember them afterwards. I can't think of anything off the top of my head, sorry.

and cookiescotch's:

1) Name 2 things you like about yourself.

ehh my sense of humour and the fact I can write pretty decently

2) What song are you listening to right now (if you’re listening to music)?

Not listening to anything but Voice Message by B.A.P is stuck in my head.

3) What was your last dream about?

I don't remember... the last one I do remember is the one I told you about at Chloe's. (it's a bit long and random to go into here soz)

4) Name someone you admire and why.

I'm gonna say my mum. I feel like I don't tell/show her I appreciate her enough (we as a family don't, I think) and she just works so hard to make our house feel like a home and make sure we don't have to worry about housework when we're busy with school. She's encouraging and understanding, and though we have our disagreements (sometimes frequently) and I can be unintentionally rude, she's always forgiving and usually patient with me. I hope I can emulate her as a mother in the future.

5) Morning or night person?

Night. I don't hate mornings but I'd rather stay up late than wake up early.

6) How are you feeling right now?

Excited because B.A.P are in town and their concert is this Sunday a;sdlkjal;sijdcnha;lskjdf

But at the same time I am feeling a bit stressed about my French oral on Wednesday and the fact that I have almost no time to study this weekend

7) What’s one of the scariest things you’ve ever done?

I haven't done any scary things o.o or if I have I can't remember any of them (or I don't consider them scary anymore idk)

8) If you could learn any skill, what would it be?

Speaking a multitude of different languages

or maybe how to play the drums. I've always wanted to learn how to play the drums.

9) Favourite joke (or any joke really)?

(here have a kind of nerdy one)

Two kittens are sitting on a sloped roof.  Which one slides off first?

The one with the lower mew.

10) Plans for the weekend?

Saturday: Going around London hoping to bump into B.A.P (jk, going shopping with friends in camden and then possibly chinatown and oxford st)

Sunday: B.A.P concert woop woop

11) Hobbies?

Writing, reading, listening to music, and making people's ears bleed singing

and finally yeratimelordsuperlock's:

1. What is your favourite book?

I don't think I have an all time favourite book, but er, looking around my room, one of my favourite books is Battle Royale. I like dystopian novels, and this one is quite well written. There are a lot of characters and the author manages to make you sympathise with pretty much all of them, even the ones who seem ruthless and sadistic. If you haven't read it, I think you should (although if you can't deal with violence and death then it's probably best you avoid it). 

2. What is your favourite dish? (this excludes desserts)

Laksa - both laksa penang and laksa johor. They're both made with mackerel, but that's pretty much the only similarity. Laksa penang has tamarind, which gives the soup a slightly sour taste and they serve it with thick rice noodles. Laksa johor has coconut milk and is more curry-like. It's served with spaghetti (which I love because I love spaghetti yay) 

(These are very, very basic descriptions of the two dishes. They have much more going on than what is described here and you should really try them when you go to Malaysian restaurants)

3. Where would you like to see yourself in 10 years time?

Hmm. At 27/28, I hope to be doing something I enjoy and be working to establish myself in my chosen career (if I have not done so already eheh). I want to have written a full novel by then and hopefully have it published. 

4. What is your favourite colour? (attach a pantone onto this)

I've never really had a favourite colour, to be honest. The only colours I don't like are pale pink and like a sickly green.

5. I’d like you to describe your eyes in a really overly elaborate way. (Eg, my eyes are dark brown, so I could describe them as muddy-elm tree bark-chocolatey brown, but I’m sure you can spend time on this and do way better)

oh goodness. The lighting is really bad in my room and I can't see the colour of my eyes properly. I'll get back to this when I can see them more clearly lol

6. Your current favourite song?

Well, it's not really a favourite song but recently I haven't been able to stop listening to 너와나 by 100% <3

7. Which of your achievements are you most proud of?

Um, getting into Imperial, maybe? 

8. You aspire to be…? (This can be a job or a type of person)

...a well-rounded person. I want to keep up my academic strengths but at the same time I want to get involved in more sports and activities that will help me develop more skills and become a healthier person. I also want to become more religious - I think I could be a much better, more involved Muslim than I currently am.

9. How do you stay awesome?

/flips hair

10. What do you look most forward to everyday?

Going to bed. Finishing all the work I need to do and being able to just chill in bed reading or listening to music before falling asleep.

11. Your dream bedroom would be…? (Add a picture if you’d like)

Filled with books and a whole lot of technology. It'd be cool if I could convert it into a cinema type environment, with the wall my bed faces turning into a screen, surround sound (and soundproof walls) and being able to make it pitch black during the day.

My questions: (frick I'm terrible at making up questions I'm sorry)

1. Favourite childhood memory?

2. If you were only able to master one dish (and everything else you try to cook turns to mush), which dish would you pick?

3. Novels, manga/comics or fan fiction? Of your preferred choice, what is your favourite work?

4. What do you have on the walls of your room?

5. Do you travel light or do you tend to over pack?

6. Thoughts on TFIOS - yay or nay?

7. Name one song you know all the lyrics to (but are embarrassed about it).

8. What does your url represent?

9. Last thing you usually do before you go to bed?

10. Name something you've always wanted to do but either (i) have never gotten round to it, (ii) are too afraid to do it or (iii) have no motivation whatsoever to do it.

11. What was your first e-mail address (or do you still use the same one now)?
